What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE KEALTH

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of Sc
rious illness, makes chemical analysis
of the patients urine. He knows that un,
less the kidneys are doing their work
properly. the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way. serious results are sure
TO follow. Therefore, it is particulars rly
necessary to pay more attention to the
health OF these important organs.

remarkable success as n kidney remedy il

LIQUOR TRAFFIC GOING UNDER

The Toledo Blade calls attention to
the fact that every few days there is
recorded some new step in the ulti-
mate determination of the liquor traf-
fic 1t says: "A brewery or dis
tillery goes out OF business. A manu-
facturer of bar fixtures decides to man
ufacture something else. An indus
trial plant announces that teetotalers
will have first choice when jobs are
distributed or promotions made. Rail-
road companies tighten the applica-
tion of the rule against drinking.
The revenue from beer and whisky
falls off and the secretary of the treas.
ury looks for new sources of income.
And SO. week after week and month
after month, the forces against liquor
increase in numbers. the territory
wherein liquor selling is profitable be-
comes more and more restricted"

LIGHT OF MODERN SCIENCE.

DIR. T. Alexander MacNichol, in one
of his addresses. says briefly: Fifty
years ago men commonly believed
that alcohol was food, tonic. and stim-
ulant; but they were excusable for ig-
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 scaled 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
a food, a tonic. or a stimulant. In a
word, science has rated and classified
alcohol as universal protoplasmic
poison to all forms of organic life

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys Is
well known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased. arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
longer pour forth waste. uremic poi

the cause Is often given as heart dis

EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL.

EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL.
There is no experiment more strik-
ing than this. Take a person who is
even most moderate drinker of al
cohol. Let that person take his pulse
In a standing position, and take 1t in
a recumbent position in ordinary ev.
ery-day life. and let him do SO when
there is no alcohol in his body, and
when there Is a dose. He finds that
when in health, his heart is autcmati.
caIly slowed when he lies down, but
that under the influence Of alcohol
this does not occur, or Is very
much reduced in its character, and
wholly, as we know, by the fact that
this tampering with the nerves has re-
suited in the heart being to a certain
degree emancipated from the healthy
and normal discipline which 1t should
be under, and which nature ordained
that 1t should be under. We have
therefore to regard alcohol as u par.
alytic or narcotic agent entirely. and
II you investigate the reasons 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 n very healthy symptom
1t is little mesEage from nature
saying that we are OVERRIDING it. and il
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 too high or too
low a pressure, and when you look at
the pressure gauges you find they have
been tampered with SO that the cor
rect steam pressure is not shown by
them. occupies the same position as
a man 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

PROHIBITION BOUND TO COME.

It Is only question OF Time when
Pennsylvania, Maryland. New Jersey
and the other eastern states will align
themselves on the side OF prohibition
as have West Virginia. Georgia and
other states / want to say that II
will be happy day when this has
been done. Years OF the past show
that the liquor traffic has worked
against the good of the country. 1t is
an odd fact that no state in recent
years. after adopting prohibition, has
rescinded that vote. All of which
goes to prove that it is prohibition
that the country wants. and is bound
to have within a short term of years.

The public at large should be famil-
