Wise.-Prov. XXI.
What kind Of wine did Solomon have
reference to? There can be but one an
s#er-termented or alcoholic wine. Is
mere anything that is more OF mocker
than alcohol? That both fermented and
uniermented are and have been called
WINE in all ages is an undisputed fact.
mat the savior called the unfermented
Juice OF grapes wine, is beyond the posi-
bllity of doubt, for he said:
Neither do men put new wine (oinon
neon) into old bottles, else the bottles
break, and the wine runneth out and the
bottles perish; but they put new wine into
new bottles, and both are preserved. !"
Matt XIII. 49,. ...s.
Here we have the fresh, unfermented
juice of the grape called wine.
Careful scientific investigations have
shown that the pure, unfermented Juice of
grapes, or new wine, contains in great
perfection the very substances required to
nourish and sustain the human body.
4ou have heard of the grape cure; thous.
ahds OF patients suffer from dyspepsia,
nervous complaints, debility, &c. have
within the last thirty years have gone to
the vine-growing regions of Switzerland
and Germany, to be cured of their suffer-
lngs and diseases, by either eating the
grapes or drinking the juice, just as it was
squeezed from the grapes in hand presses,
and thousands are drinking either the
fresh or preserved juice of grapes in our
country for their 'stomachs sake and Of
ten intirmities " And our intelligent ply
slcians are today beginning to realize its
vast superiority over fermented wine
Is it reasonable that Paul would advise
Timothy to take the poisonous wlue and
one that would cause drunkenness, which
he SO forcibly condemns? Of course not,
as it is we'll understood that fermented
wine, or alcohol in any form causes stom-
ach troubles such as dyspepsia and an in
famed and liberated condition.
In the pure unfermented wine we have
nourishing, life giving fluid food most ad-
mirably adapted to supply the wants of
the human body and bear wonderful re-
semblance to blood Now ask YOU, Chris
tan brethren is in accordance with reas-
on or cOmmonsense for us for one moment
to suppose that our blessed lord, when he
instituted the supper, cast aside this most
beautiful symbol of his blood, which he
had in the grapes on the vine, which never
causes drunkenness, or insanity, however
freely used, and selected fermented wine,
an Intoxicating cup, one containing alco-
hOl, the symbol of corruption. When no
Jew would, nor were allowed, to have lin
their homes any leaven during the pass
over week. Moreover fermented wine used
for sacramento purposes has caused many
repentent man and woman who are
striving to reform to return to the old
haunts by awakening the old appetite for
drink.
Again, is it possible that if he had really
selected the fermented wine he would have
called it the fruit of the vine'' when he
knew that not drop of fermented wine
was ever produced in the fruit of the wine,
but that it is always the product of leaven
and mans ingenuity, and that its essential

that our savior would have made fermont.

Galilee.
How can poisonous, Intoxicating, dan
gerons beverage be fit symbol of Christ's
blood? Intoxicants infame, disturb and
paralyze. On the other hand genuin e
Notwithstanding grape wine is VIII ole
some, non-poisonous drink, with no pow el
to paralyze or to infame. II is a nutri
tious, healthful drink, and is, from its ma
ture and properties, most fit symbol.
