DRINKS AND DRUGS DEADLY
This Causes Nearly All Diseases. Says
Doctor,

cent of all cases of insanity, nervous
diseases and diseases of the body are
caused from excessive or moderate in
diligence in alcoholic drinks and the
drug habit, Representative John Joseph
Kindred of New York, speaking before
the American Society for the Study of
Alcohol and other Narcotics, declared
that unless locomotive engineers, tele-
graph operators and mental workers are
total abstainers they are apt to commit
grave errors in judgment and execution.
Representative Kindred is a physician
and one of the foremost nerve special
lists in this country.
Experiments show" he said, chat
the drinking of even one glass of beer is
followed by decreased perceptive powers
of the brain and nervous system. Con-
trary to the common belief few drinks
do not strengthen the body or mind"
