Four years ago a Canon man, oc-
cupying a responsible position pay
ing a big salary, was discharged for
drunkenness. Since that time he has
been a wanderer, growing little
poorer every month. He is not getting
along in life, and his prospects are
very bad. Thousands of examples like
this, but, in spite of them, young men
continue to pay big prices for liquor
they do not need; for liquor which
harms them morally and physically.
Why do men do such things? Liquor
does not take hold of a man like the
opium habit, or the tobacco habit.
Many reformed drunkards have told
