hundreds of men filled up on this
brand of obejoyful, and from
their actions I would Judge that
the ingredients used in its manu-
facture are made up from COM
bination Of humble bees, tarantu-
las, scorpions. rattle snakes and
centipedes. In all our so called
dry states this vile compound is
sold under the nom de plume of
whisky. Indirectly, prohibition
is responsible for the hilarious
Kansas cocktail.
From time immemorial man has
sought as timulant, and he will con-
tinue to do SO until the end Of time.
If he can't get good liquor he will
qnench his thirst with bad. The
most consistent or rather incon-
sistent total abstinence champion
on record is Mrs. Carrie Nation.
Carrie no doubt is sincere in her
effort to suppress the sale of rum,
and if she succeeds in d1ivi' g out
the snake breeding joints of Kan
sas the people Of that state should
be grateful and confer upon Car
RE the title of Lady St. Patrick.
But personally I am inclined to
think that Carrie is crippled under
the bonnet, but the only way that
I could be brought to tell her so
would be over long distance
telephone or through the medium
of a newspaper published at a
good safe distance from the
domicile of Carrie the smasher.
l don't approve of her methods Of
reform but [ have great respect
for her Ratchet; even her enemies
must admit that Carrie swings a
nasty ak, one of the most destruc-
tive that ever blazed a prohibition
trail through the inebriate jungle.
Carrie is very indiscreet; she will
enter the privacy of a mans home
and if she detects the odor Of
alcohol she will elevate her anti
booze nose and sniffle the air with
the seeming disgust of a billy goat
who has just tickled his palate
with copy of DIR. Dowie's Leaves
of Healing. In my estimation the
only thing lacking to make Carrie
an anarchist of the Herr Most
type is the whiskers. HIRAM.

In an early issue Of the Satur-

expeditions of the year. The i'm
portance of this paper lies in the
authors comments, and his pre-

different parties.

4 Kansas Cocktail.

Prohibition is a dry subject.
In fact it is such dry and barren
topic that the majority Of great
temperance orators who are anx-
ious to have their efforts take root
find it necessary to irrigate their
subject just previous to mounting
the lecture platform. The hus-
thing, up to- date, energetic temper
ance advocate who wishes to make
a strong and vivid impression up
on the minds of his audience
knows there is no other agency
that will tone up the vocal organs,
generate intellectual steam or
lublicate the machinery of a mans
mental works like few drops of
good grog. But the grog must be
of the highest standard, judicious-
ly applied and taken in moderate
quantities. The mental works of
a human being is a delicate mech
anism and requires great care, and
the man who employs the use of a
cheap or inferior brand of lubrica-
tor with which to ease the friction
of his mental engine will sooner
or later blow out cylinder head,
slip an eccentric, jump his trolley
or land in the ditch.
Bones tells us that three fingers
of Bowery whisky will knock an
ordinary man higher than a kite.
The writer has cracked glasses on
the Bowery and has sailed down
that famous thoroughfare with
cargo Of its laughing water aboard,
and will admit that Bowery whisky
is neither an exquisite or a palat-
able beverage. But when it comes
to knocking, the Bowery "Rat" is
not in it with the Kansas cock
tail.
Some years ago [ was in poor
health and, acting on the advice
of friends, journeyed to the sun
flower state in order to recuperate.
[ consulted one Of the best doctors
in Kansas who made a careful
diagnosis of my ailment and in
formed me that [ was suffering
from either a real or imaginary
case Of snake bite. The doctor
recommended that I take a Kan
sas cocktail every hour until re-
lieved. At first I refused to fol-
low the doctors instructions, as l
had been teetotaler for three
years previous and was as sober as
stone fence, honest as the sun
and as true as the needle of a COM
pass. But the doctor was obstinate
and insisted that [ follow his in
structions. [ finally consented,
and remember taking number one
and two, but after performing the
sword act with cocktail number
three my mind became deranged
and l remembered nothing of the
many capers [ cut. When my
reason returned [ found myself in
the police station with a highly
developed "Pendennis" bump OF
covetousness under my fedora as
big as goose egg.
The Kansas cocktail is the Off
spring of brand of liquor known
by the name of prohibition booze.
It costs about Is cents a gallon
and is the vilest stuff that ever
touched the lips of man. Under
| it's influence the victim goes
through as many idiotic capers as
an imported bow-wow with tin
can tied to his tail. l have seen

Metaphysicans have endeavored
to explain life, and some have
even ventured to point out its
seat, but the fact remains that we
are utterly ignorant of it's nature.
We know it exists; when we see a
growing plant or moving animal
we say of each that it is alive.
The evidences upon which reliance
is placed to determine the presence
or absence Of life are spoken of as
vital phenomena"
Let us for moment consider
what is meant by the term "organ.
1t is q structure which performs a
function. In speaking of the
organs of an animal, reference is
usually had to such structures as
the heart, the lungs and the stom-
ach, inasmuch as their size and
the important work they perform
force them upon our attention.
But the term "organ,' as used in
physiology, has a much broader
meaning. A muscle. nerve, a
blood vessel are as truly organs as
are the greater ones above spoken
of, for each has its own functions.
Thus the function Of muscle is
to contract, that of a nerve to
transfer nervous impulses and
that Of blood vessel is to convey
blood. A moments reflection will
show that without the contraction
of muscles, the transference of
nervous impulses or the carrying
of blood, the life of an animal
would as certainly cease as if it
were deprived of its heart, stcm-
ach or lungs.
From these elementary con-
siaerations it is evident that phys
iology has to do with plants and
animals only. In these articles we
will deal with animal physiology,
and more particularly with the
organs Of the human body.
Many valuable hints have been
obtained by studying the processes
which take place in the lower
animals. But it must be borne
in mind that specific differences
exist between man and beast, and
you cannot infer too much from
such observations. Thus one who
studies the process of stomach .di-
gestion in ruminant, such as the
COW, will make most ludicrous
blunder should he suppose that
the process is the same in man.
It would be impossible to re-
2 produce in these pages thorough
course in physiology, SO we can
but outline the principal organs
and their functions. For convent
ence we will divide them into two
classes. First: Nutritive Func-
lions, which include those con-
'cerned directly with the main
tenance of the individual, such as
digestion, respiration, circulation,
etc. Second: Nervous Functions,
which include those that bring the
different organs of the body into
harmonious relations with one an
other, and in addition bring the
individual, through the special
senses, sight, hearing, ETC., into
relation with the world outside
him. Although physiology, strict
1y speaking, has nothing to do with
composition; as matter of neces-
-sity in these papers it will be more
practical to preface the study of
the functions by an outline OF
physiological chemistry. Food is
the material which is taken into
the body to supply the waste of it's
tissues, and it must be of such a
composition as will meet this want.
Water. Water is one of the most
important of the physiological in
