heal. Blood-poising set, in, and the
man died Beer was responsible fol
his death.
Among the poor and ignorant, beer
stout, and wine are still considered
nutrients and foods. The nutritive
value of these beverages amounts to
very little. They are never taken be-
cause of the nutritive properties they
contain. No intelligent physician ever
prescribes their use for the purpose OF
imparting strength. They are used
and prescribed because they deaden
the sensation of fatigue which is felt
by the poorly nourished body in need
of food or of rest.
Alcohol does not impart strength
therefore it cannot be considered a
nutrient or food. BY numerous expert
ments, conducted upon animals and
upon men, it has been found thai
even small doses of alcohol diminish
the working power. Athletes alb
stain from it's use in order to excel
Railway engineers and other employees
in positions requiring accuracy, are
not considered safe if they use alcohol
in moderation. 1t has also been found
necessary to restrict the use of alcohol
on the battlefield. The abstinent
soldier is more reliable; he marches
better; he shoots better; he is not
subject to frequent attacks of sick
ness and other indispositions, as in
the user of alcohol. In exposure to
severe cold, alcohol has been found
dangerous to life, because it reduces
body temperature.
The additional burdens thrown upon
the liver by the use of alcohol, make
it incapable of oxidizing leucin, uric
acid and other dangerous body vast
es; a result these get past the liver
into the tissues, where by constant ir
ritation, they do great injury Govt
rheumatism, neuritis, irritable temper
and periods of dependency and de
preston, are frequently associated
with the moderate use of alcohol. A
state of chronic congestion is also
brought about in the organs of elimi
nation-the kidneys and lungs. Kid
ney diseases, pneumonia and Other
lung diseases are more common
among moderate users of alcohol than
among total abstainers.
Alcohol, however, exerts its most
ruinous effects upon the delicate and
sensitive structures of the body-the
brain and the nerve tissue.-D. H

PRAISE FOR THE AUTOMOBILE
A Time Saver to Those Whose Time
is Worth Saving

There are two strings to the auto
mobile bow-utility and recreation
and they are both important strings.
To get the air is one of the important
details of recreation, and you get 1t
in an auto. In hot weather you get
it to great advantage. In cold wealth
er there are those who having leis-
ure and energy, and not too far to go,
would rather walk; but many more
traverse longer distances in motor
cars, to their great refreshment
AS an instrument of recreation the
auto indeed has rivals, though it
beats most of them, but when it comes
to utility nothing in the line of trans
portation can touch it in its own field.
When the purpose is so to get about
the city or country as to save time
and strength, the motor car is unap-
preached. 1t has wonderfully extend
ed the effectiveness of busy and ener-
getic people. 1t is the next thing to
seven-league boots. When we con-
slider what the telephone, the type
writer and the automobile have done
to save the time and distribute the
energies of useful people, the wonder
is how long it will take these econ
omizers to make everybody rich.
They may be doing it, but they have
not done it yet. Perhaps the reason
is that, sad to say, considerable pro-
portion of the time they save is not of
high economical value. 1t isn't every
body whose time is worth saving, but
even that solemn social truth the au-
tomobiles are equal to cope with,
since they are just as efficient in
wasting time for MASTERS as in saving
time for workers.-Life.

P. G. Gowens, Rev. Bledloe and G. w.
Howkins. Mrs. E. j.. Foster recited
an original poem dedicated to Bishop
Grant All these remarks were inn
pressive and full of pathos. Flowers
sitting on the table in beautiful vase
was used by Bishop Salter as an effigy
of Bishop Grant, over which Bishop
Salter delivered a beautiful eulogy.
The bishop waxed eloquent in the
choicest of words, and poured out his
sympathy for the bereaved ones. DR..
Dickerson lowered the flowers to the
floor, over which Bishop Salter read
the commitment, "Ashes to ashes;

Working Power


It is not the one who goes on an
occasional spree and then abstain who
sustains the greatest injury. The one
who resorts to alcohol in small doses
daily is being injured to a greater ex-
tent than the man who drinks to ex-
cess occasionally. 1t is the continuous
mild irritation that brings about the
organic degenerative changes in the
vessels and organs of the body.
In health the body is protected from
germs of disease by an army OF sold
iers known as leucocytes, or white
bladder cells. Alcohol, by paralyzlng
these celss, makes them incapable OF
protecting the body from germs or
disease. Some time ago young beer

ANEI-SALOON LEAGUE
Encouraged by Success in Caddo.
Plans TO Have Special Elections in
Ouachita and Rapides.

New Orleans, June 14.-The Louis
lana Anti-Saloon League and allied
prohibition forces of the State will
support Judge Luther Hall for gov
ernor,
DR.. l., A. Smith, superintendent OF
the league, arrived in The city Tues
day from an extensive tour over the
state. Tuesday afternoon the league
executive committee met and steps
were taken to broaden the organi-
zation's work with particular refer
ence to the coming campaign.
1--WE are thoroughly satisfied with
Judge Hail." said DR.. Smith. We
know that when he made a fight in
Morehouse parish that we had the
sympathy Of the Monroe jurist. We
believe that Judge Hall holds the
same views on the liquor question
that we do-that is, the saloon
would be always under the .surveil-
lance of the law and that an effort
should be made to obtain statewide
prohibition as near as possible. We
are not fanatics undertaking the inn
possible.
I'VE are very much gratified witt
the victory we scored in Caddo par
ish. We expect to have special cleo
tions in Ouachita and Radipes par
ishes before the end of the year ant
believe we will win both parishes.

Hon. LEVEL c. Butler.

In a criticism suggested in a
friendly spirit, Hon. LEVEL C. But
ler, formerly city attorney, in let
ter to Mayor Eastman, directs atten-
ton to vulnerable points, as he
views them, in the license ordinance
of Commissioner FulliIOve.
In his communication Mr.. Butler
cites legal authorities and arti-
cles Of the Constitution, which are
interpreted and construed against
the legality of the FullilOVe Ordi-
nance, but Judge FullilOvc, now
Commissioner Of Public Safety, dis
scnts from Mr. Buffers views and is
firm in his assurance that the
license ordinance prepared by him
is good and sound and will stand the
test Of COnstitutiOnality.
1t is to be hoped that the Ordi-
nance in question will stand, since it
is intended for. the public good.

A DARK HORSE
Colonel Ewing Is Against Michel for
GoVeTnor-Talk of Judge Monroe
and of Ex-Governor Heard-Bosses
Are Not Harmonious.

Picayune: Will the opposition to
Michel in the city organization go
to the support Of DR.. James B. As
we'll for governor, or will it endeav-
or to bring out a fourth candidate
for governor?
The issue has been squarely
drawn. There is no longer any Sc
cret that Col. Robert Ewing, leader
of the Tenth Ward, is not with Sec
retary of State Michel for governor.
He had a conference with DR.. ]. B..
Aswell on Sunday. What transpired
is not known, but it is said that no
definite results were reached, other
shan that Prof. Aswell would well
come the support of all Democrats
in Louisiana in the primary cleo
ton, if that support came to him
untrammeled and without strings
attached. Further than making it
explicit that he would be glad to
have the support of all Democrats,
it is said, the talk between Mr.. As
well and Mr.. Ewing did not go.
Aswell, however, has been gener-
ally accepted all over the State as
an anti-administration candidate
and strongly opposed to the Sanders
policies.
If the detection in the ranks of the
leaders should not support Aswell
lit was declared from reliable
sources yesterday that they intend
ed bringing out another candidate

THE WATER PROBLEM
The Same Old Story Repeated With
Slight Variations.

The water supply can be no better
than its source, nor can the quantity
exceed the capacity of the power
through which it is supplied.
For years the question of water
has been active, especially during
the summer months, but the plant
this summer has come much earlier
than usual, owing to the dronth,
which began early in May. The
weather is still dry and hot, with lit
tie relief visible from the indica-
tiOns of the clouds.
At this time the question of water
is uppermOst in every mind, but the
conditions of today is not surprls-
ing. In these columns the water
problem has been presented and re-
iterated for years until it seemed as
if its readers wearied of the subject.
We may be praiseful of we'll
paved streets and Of other improve
ments, but water and lights are the
greatest needs of community.
Without these essentials, whatever
be the progress in other directions,
such a community must be at dis
advantages.
In the present plant it has been
made manifest that Shreveport has
outgroWn the power of the water
plant, and the people should now be
giving earnest consideration to :h9
needs of the future which must be
through municipal ownership. but
in the meantime it is the part Of
wisdom for every citizen to be con-
seryative in the use of the water
Obtainable.
At a session of the executive COM
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce
teld yesterday evening, in conjune-
t1on with the Mayor and members
Of the City Council, with repreSAn-
tatiye of the Waterworks Company
it was suggested as means Of re
hef that the water supply be con-
served by the moderate use Of water
for sprinkling in the afternoon and
that on an alarm of fire being
sounded that all watering cease at
once.
This is a simple request, which is
contained in a proclamation ~1ty
Mayor Eastman, and which mus be
rigidiy observed under the penalty
Gf having the supply of water cut
off from the hydrant Of any of the
persons who may disregard such re-
quest.
But returning to the problem Of
water, if is imperative that solu-
ton must be reached and the quick
er the better. A city the size Of
Shreveport with its steady growth
must have a better system of water,
and it matters little from whence
may come the supply nor the cost,
so the supply may be wholesome
and abundant.
Possibly it may be necessary to
have two sources of supply, on3 for
fire, sewerage and general purposes
and one for use by the people for
domestic purposes.

could be induced into the race. As
for Ex-Governor Heard, it was said
by a close friend that he had not
changed his attitude in the least, and
that the only way he would consent
to run for governor would be for all
factions to unite on him and make
him an unoposcd candidate. 1t is
not believed here that Governor
Heard would consent to enter the
field in which there are already
three candidates.
