Rose no smoke from the roofs, and
CLEANED Dolights from the windows.
But on the shores meanwhile the even

Built of the driftwood thrown on the

alcoholism is a disease hard to
cure. So it seems.
Is it not strange that intelli-
gent human beings allow them
selves to be dragged into this
dangerous condition? 1t is a
we'll known fact that alcohol is a
poison. Mans blood, nerves and
brain abhor the stuff. Every man
would live longer and live better
if he never took drop of alco-
hol into his system. And yet
men drink and perish.
We have heard it said that
drunkards in Germany are not
numerous-that beer, the nation
al drink of the Fatherland, is not
very harmful to life. How comes
it, then, that so many become
chronic alcoholics? Why so ma

Chronic Alcoholism.
LEO.

Perhaps some OF our reauers
!. need some explanation of our
caption.
Alcoholism is a disease induced
by the use of intoxicating drinks.
Alcohol is the element in wine,
beer, whiskey and other drinks
which intoxicates or poisons the
system of the drinker, sometimes
rendering him unconscious -
dead drunk" There is less OF
it in wine and beer than in whis-
key, but the nature of it is the
same. It is a poison.
Chronic alcoholism designates
the drinkers condition when the
poison has gained control of him.
He may not be a drunkard in the
ordinary meaning of that term,
but liquor dominates his will
making him an habitual drinker.
THE medical profession does not
use the common term drunkard,
but the more euphonious and the
more correct expression, "AIco-
holism," or more fully, Chronic
Alcoholism"
To the scientific physician al
coholism is a disease-a defect of
the physical man-to be cured by
certain treatment like any other
ill that man is heir to.
There is this difference be-
tween alcoholism and drunken
ness: the former denotes a condi-
ton of subjugation to the poison
in spite of all possible injury to
, the unfortunate victim; whereas
drunkenness may be only a sin
gle misfortune. We read of Noah
being drunk once, but that did
not make him an alcoholic. When
a man is a chronic alcoholic he is
diseased-no longer master of
himself, and unless cured will
surely end his life disastrously.
Is there a cure for the disease?
There are cures. Total absti-
nence is a sure cure. Let the
diseased man in the strength OF
his manhood and Gods help stop
drinking and he will become a
new man. Thousands have thus
been saved from the drunkard's $
doom. 1t requires grit to apply
the remedy, but it can be done.
That is one cure.
The other cure is that obtain
ing in Germany. It involves
treating the victim as diseased
man. He is separated from old
haunts, put in a inic-that is
place devoted to the army Of al
coholics- and put under the care
of an expert physician. Germa-
ny has sixty Clinics throughout
the Fatherland devoted to the
cure of chronic alcoholics.
Do they cure any? They do,
After a few months spent in the
Clinic about ten per cent of the
patients recover their usual stat'
and go home to their families
but still the cured ones must no
expose themselves to temptation
for they are liable to have a re
lapse.
Ten per cent cured! Think o
it, only ten per cent! What be
oonoou Of rho ninety no1. cent 1fn
