Mr.. BRYAN On Total Abstinence.

Mr.. W. j. Bryan spoke on
temperance at Carnegie Hall. in
New York City, last Friday
night. The New York World
prints the following concerning
the meeting:
Mr.. Bryan, touching on the
personal side of the drink ques-
ton. said:
why should the individual
abstain entirely from the use Of
intoxicating liquor as a beverage?
First, because both exper-
ience and investigation show
that no advantage of any kind,
physical, mental or moral, is to
be gained from the moderate, OF
even the occasional, use ofintox.

alcohol is distinctly and undeni-
ably harmful: it impairs the
strength of the body, even when
taken in small quantities; it in
jurioUsly affects the mind and it
undelmines the morals. If, byI
consent, we try to protect the
young man from the use Of alco-
hol until he is twenty-one, is not
the presumption strongly against
the use Of alcohol after one
reaches maturity?
Drink leads to idleness. No|
employer cares to put business
in the hands Of a tippler; the
man who drinks cannot safely be
trusted with the care Of life or.

Wanted, a good moderate drink

| No aoon keeper would stand
spo7sor for such an advertise
ment. for total abstinence is a
virtue even behind the bar.
J There has been a growing
disposition in this country and
throughout the world, to empha-
else the evils of strong drink,
but even the most enthusiastic
advocates of temperance have
been surprised at the ghastly
light the war in Europe has
thrown uron the subject.
1T has been found that pa
trlotlsm PATRIOTISM, that COM
pelling force which throughout
the ages has led men to offer
their lives for their countries
is no match for the appetite
which alcohol cultivates in its
victim. Loyalty to Bacchus,
Gambrinus and Barleycorn is
greater than loyalty to King or
Kaiser or Car.
The use of drink has been
found to be so destructive Of
efficiency that the belligerent
Governments, not on moral but
purely on economic grounds,
have been compelled to resort to
restrictive measures.

BY Herbert Quick

Mr.. Bryan said not long ago
that II this country were attacked
by foreign foe million armed
men would spring to arms in her
defense between sunrise and sun
set.
He has been much criticised for
this saying, but he is correct. The
question is, first, whether w,s are
in any danger of being attacked
by foreign nation, and second
whether the million men in arms
rushing to the colors between sun
rise and sunset would do any
good.
There is no question that the
million men would rush to the
colors; but | don't think they
could do much against an army
OF any great size composed OF
trained soldiers-which we have
not; equipped with airships-
which we have not; such artil-
