Well. II il keeps you warm In winter
and cool in summer why is Il that out
OF those who freeze TO death ana are
sunstruck the greater part Of them are
booze holsters? Every one takes 1t for
the alcohol there Is in IT, Take that out
and you would as soon drink dish water.
I can buy q. can of good beef extract
and dip the point OF any knife in the
can and get more nourishment on the
point of that knife than in 800 gallons OF
the best beer.
II the brewers Of this land today were
making their beer IN Germany, 70 per
cent of them would be in Jail. The ex-
tract on the point OF the knife represents
one and three-auarters pounds OF good
beefsteak. Just think. you have to make
a swill barrel out of your bellies and
sewer II you want to get that much
nourlshment out of beer and run 800 gall

Every man has blood corpuscles. and
their object is to take the impurities out
Of your system. Precipitation is for the
same thing.
Every time you work or ! preach the
impurities come out. Every time you
sweat there is a destroying power going
on inside. The blood goes through the
heart every seventeen seconds o, we
have a marvellous system. In some spots
there are 1000 pores to the square inch
and a grain Of sand will cover $50 OF them.
! can strip you and cover you with shellac
and you'I be dead in forty-eight hours
o, we are fearfully and wonderfully made
booze ana Blood COrpuscIes.
Alcohol knocks the blood corpuscles out
of business so that Il takes eight TO ten
TO do what one ought to do.
There's q man who drinks. Here's a
fellow who drives a beer wagon Look
how pussy he is. He's full OF rotten it's
sue. He says he's healthy. Smell his
breath.
You punch your finger IN that healthy
flesh he talks about and the dent will be
there a half an hour afterward. You
look like you don't believe II. Try II
when you so TO bed tonight. Pneumonia
has a first mortgage on o booze-hoister.
Take a fellow with good. healthy mus
cles, and you will punch them and they
bound out like rubber band.
The first thing about = crushed straw

nose. Nature let's the public on the out
side know what is going on inside.
II I could just take the stomach OF

anco lecture you would need.
You know what alcohol does TO the
white OF an egg7 II will cook It in a few
minutes. Wen, alcohol does the same
things TO tho nerves as TO tho white OF an
egg. That's why some men can't walk,
They stagger because their nerves are
partly paralyzed.
The liver is the largest organ OF the
body IT takes all the blood In the body
and purifies IL and takes out the poisons
and passes them on on the gall, and from
there they go to the intestlnes and act
like oil does on machinery.
When a man drinks, the liver becomes
covered with hob-nRils and then refuses
to do the work ana the poisons stay in
the blood. Then the victim begins 10 turn
yellow. He has tho jaundice. The kid
neys take what is left and purify that
The booze that q man drinks turns them
hard.
/ That's what booze is doing for you.
