drink, even u 1t be the most precious
wines, | have but this one emotion
| thank God that | need no longer gulp
down that stuff" He states that the
supposed Strengthening effect of alcohol
Is deception. 1t really enervates,
weakens. This facilitating effect is pro-
duced on the brain as the center of its
influence, and then on the whole system.
Feeling predominates, but the power of
Judgment and Of restraint is gone. Sor-
row Is not overcome, but is for the mo-
ment lost sight of because the vision is
not clear and the mind Is not normal.
"Alcohol, in fact, is poison whose effects
on the system are most destructive. :"
He declares that the exhilaration pro-
duced by alcohol is not an elevation Of
the spirits, but an ebulltion.of feeling,
which the intellect does not guide,
which is blind to the actually, and
which is therefore misleading. He af-
firms that the experiences of soldiers
have abundantly proven that sin times
of peace and war, in all climates, in
heat and rain and cold, soldiers endure
most successfully the hardship of the
severest marches If wholly deprived of
alcoholic drinks" The experience of
English troops in Africa, India and
Canada proves this. The teetotalers
Jared the best, and they were not COM
pared with drunkards, but with moder-
ate drinkers. He also says: "Most of
the whalers are total abstainers, not
having drop of alcohol on board dur
ing their severe toll"
Alcohol is as injurious to the intellect
as to the body. EVERY one who has
made the experiment admits uncondi-
tionally that one can best endure intel
lectual work of every kind when he alb
stains entirely from alcoholic drinks"
II affirm that the man who totally re-
jects all alcoholic drinks sacrifices moth.
ing; he is a gamer with respect to the
blessings and Joys of 'ife."
The doctor is a strong prohibitionist.
Half-measures fail he thinks. The curse
of the traffic can only be removed by
roofing out the traffic. SIT has been
proved that the movement in favor of
total abstinence cannot be checked
where the principle has been accepted.
1t must and will grow, until at last it
mas gained large majority in the legis
lative body and has achieved the end
the complete removal of all alcoholic
drinks" That is good encouragement
for those who wish to suppress this
whole traffic in Vermont. In the light
Of science, individuals must be total alb
stainers; legislators must make prohibit
ton laws, and, if there is need, the
churches must unite in anti-saloon
leagues, in demanding and in helping the
enforcement of our present laws. The
Addison County Anti-Saloon league is
logical outcome of the Instructions we
have had and of the convictions of right
fastened in our souls. There is no
reason but corrupt one why the up
right, law abiding citizens should not
demand the enforcement of our prohibi-
tory laws and give the civil officers such
support in their work that they can feel
comfortable while executing the laws
on offenders. r. j. BARTON.
