VIEWPOINT OF THE ENEMY.

We always scan the liquor papers
with interest and growing satisfaction
They indicate from the viewpoint OF
the enemy the very encouraging ad-
vance of the temperance march, and
the reports from their watch towers
strengthen our faith and increase our
courage. What is meant for note of
warning to the liquor interests comes
as word of cheer to the teetotaler
Indeed, If it we're not that we object to
supporting the liquor trade by sub
scribing for its periodicals, we should
say to every anti-liquor man and
woman. especially TO the weakkneed
among us, take a liquor journal"
Their news columns and their editorial
writings do not mince words when II
comes to setting forth the situation.

But they who live In splendid ease

And wear pathway to my door"

ABsTINENcE-oNLY SAFE POSI-
TON.


Total abstinence Is certainly Per-
sonal prohibition, and personal pro-
hibitionists ought to vote for national
prohibition. 1t is the moderate drink
er that supports the saloon, sustains
the brewery and the distillery and
breeds the degenerates that fill our
prisons, our hospitals, poorhouses
and insane asylums. | have treated
some 5000 inebriates in my profes.
sional career all before without ex'
ception were moderate drinkers. and
in 600 carefully tabulated records OF
family history there was shown some
form of degeneracy present in the d.
rect line of descent and collateral
branches, the use of narcotics in some
form being present in the parental
history. The descendants of the ha-
bitual moderate drinker do not escape
the evil of the alcoholic faint, in some
form of physical, mental, moral de-
generacy. The only safety is total alb
stinence, ana this must be impressed
on the people,. d. Mason, NJ. D.,
