A HINT TO PARENTS.
DanSers Which Lurk in Unexpe ct d Directions from the HelIish De-
 vices of the Liquor Traffic.

All young people should be very earnestly warned to be careful what they eat. Some years ago great deaI of candy containing small sips of brandy was sold to young children; we have not seen any recent reports that such candies are still be ing sold to children, but have no doubt they are; though prob ably with more caution than for merly. But our attention has been drawn to an advertise ment of what are called whisky beans, which must be very strong. for it is asserted that one bean makes one glass of artificial whisky. The bean can. however, be taken as it is and a most eXhilarating effect is said to be produced by do ing so.
 These beans are advertised as having "all the virtue of the best whiskeys. without the deleterious effect" and this assurance. combined with the fact that they can be eaten inst cad of being drunk will. no doubt. make them appear unobj bjectionab ble to many young people who could not be induced to taste any kind of liquor. Parents should warn their children, little and big, that all stimulants are danger ous, and, as rule, especially danger ous to those who feel the greatest need of them or desire for them. Children should be taught that the worst feature of alcoholic liquors does not consist in the fact that they pos sess qualities which are directly iniu- rlous, but in their seductiveness-in the fact that the use of them. even in moderation, tends to create an appe- tite for them which grows into a crav- ing that becomes more and more in satlable. It is true that this result is not felt by everyone who uses alcoholic liquors moderately, but the fact that some persons are not as able as oth- CTS to contract the craving for alcohol does not make the warning less neces- sary or less urgent; because those who consider themselves most safe before they begin to drink are often the very ones who become the most helpless and hopeless slaves of the craving for alcohol
 And all stimulants and narcotics have Tn a greater or less degree this same tendency to enslave anyone who al lows himself to use them habitualIv. The greater and more pleasura ble the effect at the moment, the greater the danger.
 Even coffee, which is a helpful tonic and stimulant when properly used, brings some persons into very harm 1ul bondage, and should, therefore. we think, be looked upon as a medicine, rather than as food; although we believe that it is a food also. It is better for young people to abstain from coffee or tea az long as possible we think.
 1t is not only young persons. how ever, who need to be warned against the danger that turks in stimulapts and narcotics. Grown persons are often far too ready to resort to such things, and are very apt to increase 1helr use of them gradually, but stead fly, without realizing that they are making trouble for themselves in the tuture.-N. |.

A Good Recommendation

81 have noticed that the sale on
Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver
Tablets is almost invariably to those
who have once used them," says
Mr.. J. IL. Weber, prominent
druggist of Cascade, Iowa. What
better recommendation could any
medicine have than for people to
call for it when again in need of
such remedy? Try them when
you feel dull after eating, when you
have bad taste in your mouth, feel
bilious, have no appetite or when
troubled with constipation, and you
are certain to be delighted with the
prompt relief which they afford.
