Great Chance For "Liquid Bread"

Great Cnance FOR Liquid Bread"
We had hoped not to intrude again
upon the happy repose Mr. Adolphus
Busch takes by choice in the beauti-
full prohibition city of Pasadena, but
we are unable to resist the fascinat-
ing suggestions of DR.. Fl. S. Tanner,
the celebrated long-distance faster,
who fattens on the ocean air at Long
Beach. In generous spirit of riv.
ally, DR.. Tanner proposes that the
apostle of beer Shall select six men,
no nationality Barred, who are to be
restricted to a diet of beer, while DR..
Tanner shall eat nothing but water,
and he promises to outfast and out
last the chosen six
One OF the claims put forth in ad-
vocacy of the use of beer as a bev-
erage is that it is not only mild and
healthful stimulant, but that 1t pos
sesses nutritlve qualities of great
value. 1t i5 even called a liquid
bread by those who find profit In its
manufacture and sale, and the brew
cry is made to appear an institution
that rivals the bakery in worth.
In all his breweries cannot Mr..
Busch find six devoted champions OF
beer to overwhelm this single devotee
OF water? Is Long Beach to be per.
mitted to garland the brows of prohi-
bition with the uncontested victory
achieved through that unaccepted
challenge? Or do the hides of the
est beer drinkers shudder and
! nix at the Significance of the water
drinkers name?-Los Angeles Ex-

summary Of the Effects of the Use OF

New York Physician - Position

summary OF the EFFECTS OF tnc Use OF
Alcoholic Drinks by an Eminent
New York Physician - Position
of the Medical Profession.
The following summary OF the ef-
,ects of the use of alcoholic drinks by
m eminent physician, Or. s. A. Mac
Nicoll. of New York City, is so clear
and comprehensive that It is worthy
Of widest publicity. It represents the
position to which the members of the
medical profession all over the world
are coming with an ever increasing
majority:
From my Investigations l reached
the following conclusions: first, where
money goes for drink, poverty with
It's attendant evils prevails, and the
burdens of childhood are increased;
second. alcoholic environment is un-
favorable to the production of the
best school work; third, alcohol, by
producing n train of psychic and Or
ganic degeneration In the offspring,
debases the morals and lowers the
sum total of human happiness;
fourth, alcohol, by laying the foun-
dations of diseased and criminal cit
lzenship, threatens the stability of
Dur government; fifth, to reduce the
burdens and dangers of childhood
and improve the manufacture of fut-
IRE citizens, we must continue in the
largest measure scientific instruction
on the effects of alcohol and in the
essentials Of health. and increase the
number of our public gardens, play
grounds and improved tenements'
At the root of much of the drink
habit lies the popular belief that beer
and whisky both relieve exhaustion
and increase strength. The man who
drinks moderately" does for time
feel stronger, and the weary laborer
who drinks moderately" does for
time feel rested. But scientific inves-
LEGATIONS have clearly and decisively
proved that these apparent helps are
only apparent, for in short time the
drinker is worse off, both physically
and mentally
This real depletion and destruction
of life even by moderate drinking has
been we'll stated by a very eminent
English doctor, George Carpenter, of
London, who has had an exceptional
ly large hospital experience.
After describing briefly the appa-
ratus for measuring what is known
as the time-reaction OF the brain,
that is, the time actually expended
by the brain in performing mental
acts and setting the machinery of the
body in operation, DR.. Carpenter
makes this important statement:
Suppose, now, we give alcohol in
quite small quantities to the person
on whom we have been experiment.
ing, what happens? In the first place.
with the simple experiment, the time
is shortened-the brain appears to
operate more quickly than before,
but after few minutes slowing
takes place, becomes more marked,
and endures as long as the alcohol
remains in the system. But, IL the
reaction be complex, If there be an
association of ideas, this is never
quickened by alcohol. The slowing
effect begins at once, and continues
throughout the experiment. And
clearly understand that this depress.
ing effect occurs with the use of die
tetic quantities of alcohol"

Since the earliest times there have
beeu some sort OF places which were
designed Tor hospital work. although al
first they were little more than shelters

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeping Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work night and day When healthy
they removed about 500 grains of inn
pure matter daily, when unhealthy some
part of this impure matter is left in the
blood. This brings on many diseases
and symptoms pam in the back, head
ache, nervousness. hot, dry skin, rheu-
matism. govt, gravel, disorders OF the
eyesight and hearing. dizziness irregu-
lar heart, debility. drowsiness, dropsy
deposits in the urine. etc. But If you
keep the filter right you will have no
trouble with your Kidneys.

CAP vISoRs.
The Making Of Thorn Is an Extensive
Business In Itself.

Business In Itself.
There Is one man In the business
who In 1909 will have been making cap
yisors for half a century. and he isn't
such nh old man either He started at
the trade rs Il boy In 1859. working for
a concern Of which now he is the head
which was then established In Il build
ing NJ Broadway and Rector street
where the Empire building now stands
He recalls the fact that when the war
broke out they worked night and day
turning ont visors for soldiers caps.
The manufacture OF cap visorS is a
business by itself Only about fifteen
concerns are engaged In II. OF which
number all are in this city save two or
ton. New York supplies ylSors for cap
manufacturers all over the country.
producing Ia the aggregate millions OF
them annually.
For the very cheapest cloth caps
visors are made OF cardboard paper or
Of Imitation leather covered with the
cloth of which the cap body is made
For other grades of cloth caps viSors
are made Of various sorts Of light
leather. and for some cloth caps OF fine
quality there are now used. because II
Is lighter than leather. yisors made
from heavy specially woven and
waterproofel canvas.
For visors there Is now made an iml-
tatIon leather composed OF bookbind-
ers' board and what Is called mole
skin. the two being cementcd together
under pressure. In Il madeup cap.
material might pass even an expert for
leather The best leather visors are
made Of leather specially tanned and
prepared.
Take the country AT large and caps
are not used by people In general for
ordinary wear so much as they were
fifty years ago. but caps are still worn
in great numbers by younger people
and 10y sportsmen and travellers and
golf players and of uniform caps OF
one sort and another there are now
worn 800 per cent more than twenty
years ago.
Very simple little things cap visors
might seem, hut great numbers OF them
are used. and In a factory where they
make them you would find around rolls
and sides OF leather or other mate
rials and hundreds OF dies and molds
for cutting and the shaping of the
