New York, Aug. 16.-The Ameri-
can dollar ruled the financial world
today with an iron grip. Pounds sterl-
ing, francs, lires, virtually all foreign
exchonge went down to new depths
in torrent Of bills that poured into
the exchange markets from American
manufacturers, seeking pay for the
big war contracts of munitions and
other supplies purchased here by the
warning nations Of Europe.
Coincident with the startling de-
cline in exchange rates came the as
sertion from an unimpeachable source
that every contract made by the An
erican manufacturers for supplies
sent abroad called for payment in
American dollars, and not English
pounds sterling, which have hereto,
fore been the standard of finance the
world over. The immense losses
therefore, due to the decline In for.
eign exchange rates will be borne, to
the last penny, by the foreign buy.
ers, and will not be sustained by the
American Manufacturers situation
exactly the opposite of what had here
tCfcre been the popular belief.

EFFECTS OF

There IL no experiment more strik-
ing than this. Take a person who is
even a most moderate drinker of al
cohol. Let that person take his pulse
In a standing position. and take 1t in
q recumbcnt position in ordinary ev-
ery-day life, and let him do so when
there is no alcohol in his body. n
when there is a dose. He finds that
when in health. his heart is automati-
cally slowed when he lies down, but
that under the influence Of alcohol
this does not occur, or is very
much reduced in it's character. and
wholly, as we know, by the fact that
this tamporing with the nerves has re-
suited in the heart being to a certain
degree emancipated from the healthy
and normal discipline which it should
be under. and which nature ordained
that it should be under. We have
therefore to regard alcohol as a par
alytic or narcotic agent entirely, and
If you investigate the reason why peo'
pie take it. you will find invariably
that it is for paralytic action rather
than for the stimulant.
The feeling Of fatigue which we all
experience is a very healthy symptom.
1t Is a little message from nature
saying that we are OVERRIDING it, and II
alcohol is taken you cut off and stop
that nerve message. The engineer on
board a steamer who tells you that
his boilers are magnificent boilers be
cause they never give o high or too
low a pressure, and when you look at
the pressure gauges you find they have
been tempered with so that the cor
rect steam pressure is not shown by
them, occupies the same position as
a mar who explains his feelings under
alcohol.
would like you to think Of the body
when alcohol is circulating in it as
being interfered with-to use that

please don't hrutalize the machine

1t is better to clear the icehouse out
before the cold nights come n to
give it a chance to dry out before be-
ing refilled. When considerable ice
is left over, it is a temptation to put
new ice on top Of the old, but this is
a mistake. The icehouse should be
cleaned out clear down to the bottom
every year. This gives an opportunity
to examine the drainage and to start
right with the next filling. The man.
agement of an icehouse is as simple
as rolling off a log, but there are a
few little things to remember. When
you roll off a log you don't want to
strike your nose. When you fill an
icehouse you want to do It in such a
way that most of the ice will stay III

BY WILLIAM A. RADFORO.

This is the time of year to build an
fcehouse. A happy. g~oodhearted
n~eighbor admitted in his comical way
that he had always wanted an ice
house-in summer-but there was no
ice at that time to fill it. In winter
it was cold enough without it.
Every farm should have an ice
house, and every farm should have a
dairy house. There is economy in
combining the two. The illustrations
show the perspective and floor plan of
n combination farm icehouse and
dairy. large enough to handle the milk
from a good-sized herd of mixers.
The icehouse is large enough to hold a
cuhe of ice 16 feet in diameter. To
keep Wo.l there should be considerable
bu,E If ice together in one block.
- t-'- design the dairy wing is
bull TO the south. which helps to
protect the south side of the icehouse
from the hot summer sun. Also. a
dairy room needs considerable sun
shine, so it works right both ways.

LIGHT OF MODERN SCIENCE.

DR.. T. Alexander MacNichol, in one
Of his addresses, says briefly: Fifty
years ago men commonly believed
that alcohol was food, tonic, and slim.
ulant; but they were excusable for liz.
%norance, as little was known Of the
psychology and chemistry Of the blood
and tissues; the action of bacteria
upon the functions and life of tissue
cells was a sealed book. The inven.
ton Of instruments of precision and
the application of more exact meth
DDS of examination has revolutionized
our attitude toward alcohol. In the
light of modern science alcohol is not
n food, a tonic, or a stimulant. In a
word, science has rated and classified
alcohol as a universal protoplasmic
poison to all forms of organic life"
