The Historical Argument.

From Noah down men have
used and abused intoxicants; but
that signifies nothing whatever.
From Noah down men have done
all sorts of fool things, and as to
some of the things have gradual
ly learned that they we're follies
and so eschewed them. George
Washington drank rum before
breakfast. There is no more
reason for sticking to George S
rum than for cupping and bleed
ing patients for every illness.
The use of tobacco is much mora
general than the use of intoxi
cants. That human nature does
not require tob eco we know from
the simple fact that it got along
very comfortably for several
thousand years without it. The
normal human nature does not
need alcohol we know equally
we'll from the millions of men and
women who do without it-and
female human nature has always
been able to subsist without get
ting drunk
The historical argument is bo
gus. The mod crate drinker need
not be considered at all; for if q
man is truly moderate drinker
alcohol is of such slight account
to him that it's presence or alb
sence can make no difference
Men who really want alcohol are
not moderate drinkers, although
a great majority of them so mis-
call themselves. Rational men
if they drink it at all. do so pre-
cisely in order to become intoxi
Gated in some degree or other
They drink it because they want
to have it's warmth and color anC
