small minority that is doing this Many
Christians even object to 1t. while the vast mass
that are not Christians have learned not to throw
stones. But the friends Of liberty must demand
liberty on broader grounds than hitherto. They
must deny every claim TO restrict liberty on
grounds Of morality. 1t Is enough that those
who wish to be moral should be free to bs
moral: they must permit these who wish to be
immoral To be immoral; because half the time
what is alleged to be morality is really immor-
ity. and what Is suppressed as immortality is
really morality: and because all the time an
enforced morality at the best is but enforced
hypocrisy. Freedom. II had it, would mean
freedom to keep saloon as freely as a grocery.
open at any hour Of any day. 1t would mean
freedom to buy as well as sell, without tax,
license or limit. morphine and whlskey as well
as milk. and to poison ones self. too slowly or
quickly, with morphine whskey. or even with
milk. for to some. am told. milk is poison.

from nervous disorders. while of those

A Queer Bible Reader.

tDe tuitoT:
One signing himself Greg seems to think
that quoting scripturai characters Is quoting
scriptural doctrine He Is a wretchedly shallow
garbler. and designedly attempts to mislead. The
verse In Proverbs TO which he refers 10 a bit OF
sarcasm. the point Of which he is too dull 20
perceive. 1t says: 'Give strong drink unto him
that Is ready to perish" l. e.. 1t Is safe to give
1t to dying men only. men wounded In the body
or In the heart. An honest man would have re.
ferred to verses preceding this special one verse
6, In which King Lemuers mother urges total
abstinence from drink. In verses and 4.
she says: ''Give not thy strength unto woman
nor thy ways to that which dcstroyeth kings. 1t
Is not for kings. Lemuel, It Is not for kings
to drink wine. nor for princes strcng drink"
There is no scriptural doctrine concerning drink
excepting this: mo drunkard shall enter the
