DRUNKENNESS CAN BE CURED
Records show That 80 TO 36 Per Cent
of Those. Treated Have Been
Cured of Drink Habit.

Although it has been several years
since Benjamin Rush declared that
habitual drunkards were diseased
persons, there are even yet many
men and women today. DIR. 4. H..
Boring declares. who do not agree
with him. and consider it waste or
time to help them throw off this ter
rible burden under which they labor.
1t has been considered almost useless
to undertake to cure anyone addicted
to these habits, that all users were
out of the pale of society and could
never be restored to good manhood or
womanhood, but from an experience
of several hundred cases covering
every phase of the situation, the doc
tor asserts, Il am sure that these
habits are as positively and certainly
durable as are any of the durable dis
eases This is a bold and broad state
ment and one not yet accepted by the
general medical profession in all OF
it's detail, but 1t can be demonstrated
to the satisfaction of anyone"

Washingtonian home, Boston. an In

5000 cases that had formerly been
under treatment, and found over 30

the task is neither hopeless nor
thankless, nor would it be ii the meas
ure of success had been lessened one

County home, New York, examined

part the modern donkey engine has supplanteo al

the skidding operation is designed only to get
the logs out of the forest depths where no log
carrying vehicle could be operated without immune
trouble and damage to the standing timber HOW
ever when the Snow King is IN command II some
times happens that a similar method may be en-
ployed for moving the logs to the rolway or stor-
age yard perhaps mile or two distant, where
the logs are held to await the spring fresnets or
are loaded aboard railroad cars that convey them
to the mills. For this long-distance log trailing

marvels one better. In principle, the ice auto
mobile is not very different from the ordinary
commercial motors which are now employed for
delivery work in every city. However, the self
propelled adjunct OF winter logging is provided
with sharp teeth which 1t sinks into the
ice as it progresses thus insuring steady prog
with slipping sliding the smooth
surfaces.
But because the winter finds the lumber jacks
very busy in a temperature that ranges as low
20 to 40 degrees below zero it must not be sup
posed that they do not find time and opportunity
for plenty of fun in the isolated camps where they
spend the season. logging camp may be any
whefe from five to twenty-five miles from the
nearest store and postofice, but the Jacks"
kept literally supplied with fresh butter fresh
meat smoking and chewing tobacco etc. A
graphophone monograph is almost newt
able adjunct OF the isolated logging camp and the
lumbermen manage in one way and another TO
get records of the latest song hits from time to
time.
The average logging camp has two main struc-
tures-the bunk house where the loggers sleep in
hunks arranged in tiers. and the cook shanty
where the food Is cooked and served To call
this eating hall shanty is, however something
of misnomer, since the word is likely to suggest
a modest hut, whereas the cook shanty of an up
to-date logging camp must be large enough to ac-
commodate a crude dining table perhaps 40 feet
in length The cooking in logging camp is
usually done by man and wife (almost invar-
iaby Germany, who hire out as professional cooks
and who have the help of two masculine assist
ants. They work over range that Is 10 feet long
and on top OF which stands coffee urn that holds
as much a barrel; a meat boiler that holds 100
pounds OF pork or beef. and in which there
can be boiled at one time than bushel OF
potatoes Below the ovens where are baked
some 10 to Is square feet of biscuits every day
In some camps heavy stoneware is provided for
use on the table. but at majority Of logging es.
