1t was not through any decent re-
gard for others, on the part of the men
who ran into Mrs. Scott and daughter
last Friday evening, that both were
not killed; il vas owing merely to good
fortune. The men were drunk and were
operating machine, which, under mis-
management such as they were giving,
was a fragrant menace to people who
were perfectly entitled to use the high
ways in comfort and security. Let an
engineer or motorman get drunk and
thus endanger the lives of passengers
or.cause an accident, public sentiment
would very properly demand severe
punishment. With the automobile, the
case seems different; there are so many
of them and accidents resulting from
them are so frequent that the public
conscience grows callus. But the cases
are really parallel and the drunken
autoist should be treated as vigorously
as the drunken engineer or motorman.
Let an accident of this kind force its
terrible results into the immediate fam
lily circle of anyone and they would
speedily awaken to the fact that some
thing effectual should be done. This is
an eminent possibility because half a
dozen deaths and many minor accidents
directly attributable to drunken auto
drivers have occurred in this vicinity
within the past year, in fact scarcely
a week passes during which someone is
not hurt or their property injured.
Sheriff Frank Green is authority for
the statement that nearly all of the
trouble resulting from the use of auto
mobiles in this county occurs on roads
leading to Birch Run and Saginaw and
he advocates that offenders of this
kind, in the interest of public safety, Ibe
dealt with severely. The sheriff is
right. The public is not so much inter-
ested in the settlement of few dol
lars in damage to property as it is in
securing the abatement of an aggrava-
ated nuisance, and no better remedy Is
at hand than to give the drunken auto
lists the maximum penalty of the law.
The imposition of few fines of $50. 90
to $4,000. with the alternative of a
term in jail would have a mighty sa-
lutary effect.

A few days ago an incident came
under our observation that was pitiable
enough to challenge sincere sympathy,
serious enough to induce thoughtful
speculation and Justify few remarks.
1t was this: The father of family of
little children, beautiful and bright
little children, too, as we happen to
know, came Keeling home in a beastly
state of intoxication, as he had often
done before, to shame and terrify them.
and introduce into what should be
the happy hours of childhood expert
ences which were positively diabolic
in their power to wound and blight. No
doubt it was not the intention of the
father to do this; we cannot believe
that it was. He is simply victim of
his own weakness and depravity, and
of the cupidity end beastiality of men
who pander to his appetite. No longer
able to control himself, he is a power
of devastation as merciless and as
irresponsible as a tornado. But with
this vast difference, that he is the pro-
duct of preventable cause, while the
tornado is not. Society at large is
somewhat responsible for him and some
parts of it are very strictly so-those
who gave or sold him liquor. We have
had occasion to say before in these
columns. and we reiterate, that we
should have less objection to liquor
were its effects confined to the individ-
ual who deliberately uses it, but when
those effects infringe the rights and
privileges and positively curse the
lives of innocent persons, then we have
objections of the most settled character.
We have faith that advancing civiliza-
ton will soon deal with this matter in a
manner BETTING the dictates of
humanity, but we cannot refrain from
expressing our opinion of those who,
in the meantime, prey upon their fell
lows with gluttony and rapacity
equalled only by the vultures who sati-
ate their horrible lust for flesh in
the charnal towers of India. Life has as
yet offered no large rewards to our
labors, mayhap it has offered all those
labors have been worth, but by the
Eternal, it were better to be a toad
and live upon the noisome vapors of a
dungeon, than enjoy wealth and luxury
purchased at the expense of blighted
lives. broken hearts and the tears and
suffering of innocent childhood.

DIDN'T WANT TO

Wife Cheered Him Up and at Last
Found Exactly What He
Needed

Nelson Gage, machinist living at
TAI Dayton St., Flint. has taken one
bottle of Tanlac and has been very
much improved by it. This is what
Mrs. Gage says about her husband:
"My husbands system became all
run down and he grew so nervous and
weak in every way that l was afraid he
would have to stop work. He was
bothered lot from his stomach, and in
his left side. In the morning when he
would wake up he would have coated
tongue and bad taste in his mouth
and would feel so tired and worn out
that ne would hardly feel like facing
another days work. Occasionally he
had bad headaches and often he would
have slight dizzy spells. He lost his
appetite and when he did eat anything,
gas would form on his stomach and
cause him much annoyance.
81 knew that he must get something
to improve his condition but since he
had tried almost every medicine with
out getting good results hardly knew
what to get for him next. Many peo-
pie recommended Tanlac to me saying
that it had helped them but was lit
tie skeptical at first since so many
medicines had disappointed us. Finally
one day " hen was down the street l

might at least give it trial. per-

improvement started right then almost.
