kind consideration of our readers and
patrons we shall strive to make the
REPORTER of 1899 excel the one of
1898. 1t is very easy to pick up a
newspaper and criticise it, but very
hard matter to place yourself in the
editors position and do as well. With
good will toward all men, we enter the
labors of 1899, with a sincere wish
that all may enjoy a happy and pros
porous year.

Love of Liquor Not Hereditary.


Professor Sims Woodhead. speaking
before the Society For the Study or
Inebriety in England, came to these
conclusions: He held most strongly
that a direct transmission of the taste
for alcohol never occurred. OF course
he accepted very fully the fact that
certain nervous diseases and degenera-
tions involving certain altered ana
weakened inhibitory powers are trans.
mitted from generation to generation.
These. however. did not always as
sumo the same form, the manifesto
ton of the effect often taking on very
different characters in different gen.
erations.
But whatever character they assum-
ed the result as regards alcohol was
Inevitably the same, and until far more
evidence was brought forward than
had yet been presented he should
strongly maintain that what was so
often spoken Of as an inherited taste
for alcohol was an inherited weakness
and lessened self restraint affecting
many other things besides drink and
that a direct transmission of the taste
for alcohol from parents to children
In a constitution otherwise healthy did
not occur AS with tuberculosis. the
disease was not transmitted, but only
the weakly and unbalanced condition
of the tissues.-Loudon Hospital.

just look at this room; it is blue with
smoke. have inhaled that into my

you have held all the cigars, but then
now really, what is the difference?
Why would it be any worse for me to

said John sarcastically.
There's little use in arguing with
