NOT A RLOODMAXER.
Scientific Reason why We Should
Not Drink Alcohol.


Can blood be made from alcohol?
This is very important question and
one on which there is great diversity
of opinion. Paracelsus first made use
of pure alcohol for the preparation of
his elixir vitae. Thousands of physi-
clans today recommend that mothers,
invalids and other feeble persons drink
wine and beer with the idea that these
liquors make blood. Perhaps this no.
ton grew out of the similarity in col
or of wine and blood. At any rate, it
is the red wines that are largely con
sumed for this purpose.
But wine cannot make blood. Wine
interferes with the bloOdmaking proc
ess. To be converted into blood a
substance must contain some of the
properties of blood. Wine does not
resemble blood 1t is diluted alcohol
Hence it cannot be converted into
something so radically different from
itself as blood is.
Blood is just as much flesh as any
other part of the body. 1t is liquid It's
sue; 1t Is llQulu HeSn; IL is VltallZeu
fluid and as much alive as the brain or
a nerve.
Alcohol is lifeless; consequently it
cannot be changed into blood. Nothing
but good food-fruits, grain and nuts
can make pure blood. These foods be-
come blood through digestion. Exami-
nations of men who have drunk alcohol
have revealed the liquor in the brain,
liver and muscles. Indeed the whole
body was saturated with alcohol as a
sponge with water. The poison has
been detected in the perspiration and
in the secretions Of the kidneys. By
distilling the breath Of such persons it
has been possible to obtain the alcohol
again. So alcohol does not make blood
and tissue.-Good Health.

miners employed in the camp organ
lied a nudon, being the first nuion Or
ganized there. Senator w. A. Clark,
who owns the mines, encouraged his
employees in forming the union and
granted them an eight hour workday.
The smeltermen, engineers and all en-
ployes working on the surface were re-
quired to put in from 10 to II hours
per day. During Senator Clark's visit
last week a demand was made by
them for an eight hour day, which he
refused, and which, he says, will not
be granted under any circumstances.
Senator Clark has left Jerome for Chi
cago. A large number Of miners joined
the strikers at the United Verde mine
and but few men remain in the under.
ground workings.
