REASONS FOR LIQUOR HABIT
Consciousness and Resulting
Temporary Pleasure.

1t may be asked, why do men
dring?" For the same reason that
opium and hashesh are taken-in or
der to cause abnormal states of con
sciousness because of the pleasure
derived therefrom. Alcohol, severing
the divine from the purely animal
portion of our nature, leaves man an
irresponsible animal descending to
purely sensuous, animal planes of ex-
istence, finds a temporary bliss in
this experience.
1t is peculiarly appropriate that
our western intellectual civilization
should have chosen this, of all drugs.
which entirely destroy all true intel
lectuality. writes DR.. Axel L. Gibson
in the New Voice 1t is the uncon-
scious application of the law of oppo-
sites. and We of the west select alco-
hol because 1t affords a transient re-
lief from the intense strain which our
civilization puts upon us. We do not
know how to still the action of our
restless brain-mind, by retiring with
nature and resting Because of this
ignorance and of the absolute neCes-
sity at times for rest from intellectual!
labor, we thus descend into the ami
nal kingdom instead OF rising 10 spir-
itual planes. Refusing to ascend, we
are compelled to descend. Ignoring
the spiritual side of our nature, and
stimulating the intellectual, alcohol af-
fords a real, but transient and deadly
relief from the pressure of this civ
ilization whose god is gold
The evil effects Of alcohol are wide
spread and appalling. Upon society
they are too we'll known to require
comment That alcohol is the chief
factor in the production of crime, the
record of our penal institutions proves
cOnclusively. 1t also fills our asylums
and almshouses, and hrrdreds of
thousands of premature graves. with
which It is not officially credited Its
manufacture and sale produces and
employs a class of men utterly lost
to all high influences
What are the remedies for so gi-
gantic an evil? They can only be
found in right knowledge. Men must
be taught the effect alcohol has upon
both soul and body. and public opin-
ion must be changed. The mental
attitude of the race towards alcohol
is wrong. The old old remedy OF
