The Disuse of Alcohol in the Treat
ment of Diseases.

Presiding at the thirty-fifth annual
meeting of the London Temperance
hospital held recently in Great Britain,
Lord Alverstone, the lord chief JUS
tice, commented on the notable prog
ress the institution has made in the
treatment of diseases without the Ordi-
nary use of alcohol, and expressed
satisfaction in the fact that alcohol
was being more and more dispensed
with as a medical agent in the general
practice of physicians.
The yearly records of the Temper
ance hospital, Lord Alverstone stated,
continued to present u~ndoubtable evil
dence in favor of the disuse of alco-
hol as a drug. The scope of the hos
pital was yearly e%nlarging and the
progress made during the past year
had been especially noteworthy. A
splendid hall for out-patients had been
opened by the duchess of Argyle, who
had since become patroness of the in
stitution; the buildings had been rem
ovated and furnished with every
modern improvement. With the in
creased accommodation a larger staff
became necessary and an especially
able staff of physicians was now in
charge. The striking statement In the
report which showed that during "a
years the in-patients had numbered
1926, and it had only been considered
needful to make trial of alcohol in so
cases would not be without due weight
in medical circles. From this it was
clear that whatever theoretical value
some mights attach to alcohol as a
drug, it could be almost entirely and
safely dispensed with, while the pa
tents themselves enjoyed immunity
from those moral hazards to which
many of them would be exposed by
imbibing alcohol in quantities however
small.
At the conclusion of the meeting a
resolution of congratulation upon the
excellent work accomplished at the
hospital was recorded. The resolu-
ton also stated that the meeting re-
joiced in the knowledge that a large
reduction in the use of alcohol was
commencing itself to the judgment
and entering into the practice of the
medical profession.

One day Allan came screaming up
stairs to his mamma and grandma,
holding his hand up covered with
blood. where he had cut his little
finger. They were both greatly
alarmed, as he was a child who rarely
cried or complained when hurt. Nam
ma washed the blood off and, exam
lining the cut, said:
Why, dear, it's not so very bad.
Does it hurt you so much?"

ITCHING HUMOR ON BOY
His Hands Were a Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over Body
Cured in a Days BY Cuticura.

One day We noticed that our little
boy was all broken out with itching
sores. We first noticed it on his little
hands. His hands were not as bad
then, and we didn't think anything
serious would result. But the next day
we heard of the Cuticura Remedies
being so good for itching sores. BY
this time the disease had spread all
over his body, and his hands were
nothing but a solid mass of this itch
ing disease. / purchased a box of Cuti-
cura Soap and one box of Cuticura
Ointment, and that night | took the
Cnticura Soap and lukewarm water
and washed him well. Then | dried
him and took the Cuticura Ointment
and anointed him with it. l did this
every evening and in four nights he
was entirely cured. Mrs. Frank DON

THE STORY.

WHAT boy is there who has not
w been thrilled and fascinated with
the story of David the shepherd boy L?
With what intense interest mother or
father has been followed as the story
of the young shepherd and his sheep
has been told, of his devotion to duty.
of his courageous facing of the lion
and the bear when they came to at
tack the lambs of the flock, and how
after 2 fierce struggle he had killed
both these savage beasts; of his call
from the field n day to meet the
prophet Samuel and be told that he
was some day to be made king of Is
rael; of his battle with the giant
Goliath; of his leaving the flock on
the hillsides of Bethlehem. to go to
the palace of King Saul; of the sweet
songs he had learned to play in the
woodlands and meadows where the
birds and the musical ripples OF the
brooks down the hillsides taught him
his first lessons in the melody of song,
and of how his music Upon his harp
soothed the troubled spirit of the
king.
No matter how old the world grows
it will grow weary of this story
of David. And if we of to-day find
delight in the story, what must have
been the charm and inspiration of the
story to the boys of the land and ma
zion in which David lived?
The time of our story was some 800
years after the time of David, but the
same Judean hillsides and valleys
through which David had led his
sheep were there to furnish the set
ting of our story. Not more than six
miles from the town of Bethlehem
where David was born and brought up
was another little village known as
Tekoa. and it was there that the hero
of u story was born. His parents
were poor, as were most of the people
living in Tekoa, and for most part
followed the calling of shepherds and
vine dressers.
Almost the first recollection which
Amos had was being set on the hill
The Tupelo journal., 1908-07-24

"Thus saith the Lord."-One
cannot read the prophecy of
Amos without being deeply i'm
pressed by the iteration and re-
iteration of the phrase: "Thus
saith the Lord"
IL is at once the end of all
argument and the limit of human
questioning. The words thun-
der forth with a challenge to
mankind to either bow before
the message or be crushed and
destroyed by the final judgment
of the omnipotent will.
There is no temporizing on
the part of the prophet. There
is no effort on his part to modify
his message.
Dogmatism in theology may
not be justified. But it is no
doematism to stand fearlessly
and unfIinchinely upon the plain
declarations of Gods word.
Why should we strive for an
emascuIated message, when the
vigor and fire of a "Thus saith
the Lord" runs all through
Gods word, from Genesis to
Revelation?
Two qualifications are essen
tial in every preacher whom God
sends forth into his service:
First, he must be a good listen
err, and in the second place he
must be a faithful repeater.
How can a man deliver Gods
message ave as his heart has
been still in the Divine pres
ence and has listened long and
intentIy and yearnineIy for the
voice of God?
How dare a man after he has
heard God speak, get up and
pare Gods word down to fit the
conceptions, or, rather, the
misconceptions, of man?
1t takes the prayerfuI heart
and the humble spirit to key the
heart into unison with the Di-
vine nature and fit it to receive
accurately the messages flashed
forth from the throne of heaven.
1t takes the courage of a
Daniel, the faith of an Elijah,
and the answering loyalty of a
preacher like Paul to speak
forth the message of God.
Gods message has never yet
been the popular message, for it
condemns the sins which the
world loves and points the hu-
initiation of the cross as the only
way of salvation.
The world is not ready to give
up its sin; it is not ready to bow
before the cross and acknowI-
edge Christ as Saviour.
In it's last analysis, sin is re-
lection of Christ, for Jesus de-
clared: This is the condemna-
ton, that light is come into the
world, and men love darkness
rather than light, because their
deeds were evil"
