you think in this age OF fnoney mad
I'ress that 1 mean born in luxury.
What ! say about being well born
dces not pertain to wealth, for too Oft
en- that proves detriment The
greatest men that have ever lived
have come from foverty stricken
homes. | believe that the child Of the
rcor man has greater chance TO ac-
lIieve greatness and success than the
child hampered by his fathers wealth.
You may think when l speak of a
child being well born that / mean Of
aristocratic dscention. The arstocracy
boast their blood and only the
doctors tell us that the
blue blood Is the bad blood and only
The rich red blood is the good. ] do
believe in aristocratic birth, the Kind
Of aristocracy that stands for decency
Eure morals and pure blood, 50 that
d child can point with pride to his
ancestors and say, they are of tile
real aristocracy for there hasn't been
an indecent man in my family for
many centuries"
Would Have Pedigree.
You buy horse and when you de-
thing You will do is to investigate his
pedigree. If woman has dog of
which she makes a pet, she will tell
with pride that he Is a Dloodede dog of
wonderful pedigree. by the grace of
God / think the children of America
should have such pedigree. You re-
CURE it in your dogs and horse.
Why not more so in your children?
Like unto God was man made per-
feet. No man has lost his godliko
standing unless he has been stccped i'm
sir and is a helpless being as a result
OF his violation of nature and natures
laws. Science teaches us that alcohol
- destroyer of humanity, of flesh,
strength, sinew, and moral character.
j or business reasons If for no other
why will the men of this country
l'tep the thing and use the things that
makes of their children elileptics and
morally and mentally deficient? \
man cannot abuse his own mind and
body and send his children ON healthy,
mentally and physically. So as a
man sows so shall he reap and If dis
ease be sown I'm the seed of life, that
disease will be developed in thu child.
If You were to plant potatoes, You
| w. couldn't choose seed that was impcr-
| feet or diseased, for YOU know that
o. you did you would have no potatoes
or they would not be worth the dig
E'ng. What is true OF the vegetable
| life is true Of human life. Deep In
the cess pools of iniquity men have
| believed because they were not women
and their regulations could not be
wrecked that they could violate the
laws Of nature satiate their own sim
iuncss and then bring forth that
luthesome disease that insults our
! odies and wrongs ouy children.
Habits That Destroy.
The body is a taautltm mechanism
so let us not ruin it and undermine its
vitality with disease Have more re-
spect for the house which God has
given us and for the next generation
to come.
"Alcohol Is destroyer. The tree
that bears bad fruit shall be cut down.
Young man, it you give to postcrity
al that posterity demands OF you,
y on must stand before God as sweet
Land pure and wholesome as the F-9Ia~
an you take to be your WIFE
Before YOU begin "a habit, smoking
and various habits that are acquired
ask yourself this What good will
This do me? WIN 1t help in the battle
OF life, win it give me IA stronger
MUSCLE better brain. will it assist
me 10 gain success ana promotion;
Il these questions are not answered in
the affirmative why attempt such ha-
! iLits?"
