A certain Fairfield woman not long ago
bought patent steam cooker that had q
tin whistle attached that would blow
when the water run low in the boiler, set
the machine on the stove, filed up with
materials for vegetable DINNER and
went about her other duties. While en-
gagged in the chambers she heard a
whistle, but failed to connect it with her
patent steamer, She thought of railroad
and ran from window to window in
search of the sensation, while the whistle
below merrily on, and an odor arose that
was an offense to Heaven. She gave up
hunting, opened the windows and went
down stairs to find the costly cooker
boiled dry, unsoldered and otherwise
dilapida ted.

has an inherited predisposition as a con-

hereditary vice is easily aroused 10 ,,.N aGllN-

1t is not civilized mans natural dis

drunkard presents no such positive path

cover by eliminating the poison before IL
has time TO cause tissue injuries.
Although such men sometimes go to
terrible eXcesses in some instances pro-
longing the debauch for several weeks,
they either have a great appetite and con,
sumo much food, or else they depend
entirely on the liquor for allment.
When quantities of food are ingested
it exercises protecting influence. keep
ing the gastric functions busy. neutral1z-
ing to a large extent the poisonous effect
of the liquor, and therefore tending TO
equaliZe the circulation When the desire
for food is completely suppressed by the
liquor, the system is left unprotected TO
the mercy of the alcohol and the nervous
organs receive the full effects OF the
stimulant.
Many persons in the prime of life per-
suade themselves that moderate use OF
liquor taken regularly, even on an empty
stomach, will cause no detrimental re-
suits. as they experience no immediate
disagreeable symptoms. Many Will even
claim that their systems demand the
stimulus and that marked benefits follow
its use.
No more fallacious or deceptive idea
can be entertained by a healthy man.
The system, il is true, becomes habitu-
ated to the abuse as it does to the mar
cotc poisons-opium, hashish. chloral or
tobacco; but let such persons discontinue
its use for any reason, and for weeks
they must suffer with loss of appetite,
fever. pains or palpitation. with perhaps
loss of flesh.
The system has in such cases from
long abuse become changed and demands
its regular poison to sustain the abnor-
NAL standard created by the liquor. With
bilties crushed, the victims of the liquor
habit are only capable of causing tears
and shame to all connected with them.
No higher mission comes to the medical
man-no greater credit can attach to his
skill-than to find treatment that can
stay this torrent of misery that flows so
relentlessly over its bed of human
hearts,
Even more than alcohol, the opium
habit holds its thousands of victims in
tion of the hypodermic syringe the per-
nicious juice of the poppy has destroyed
myriads of human bodies and minds

this haunting vice
They are too often open to greater
