THE EFFECT
OF ALCOHOL
ON THE HUrlAN SYSTEM

| nNohOi Wop oHCO buVeSub w Uc
Ia food aud was spoken of as "a
stimulant. Modern experiment
end investigation challenged that
definition, and it now classified as
a narcotic. Science has shown
that alcohol, even in moderate
quantities, causes disturbance in
the brains ection and paralyzes
critical capacity, power of will and
lowers self-control. For this rea-
son one should realize that it is
poison, ,'end no longer to be classed
with foods.
Alcohol is not afood. When.n
is taken into the body the juices Of
the system dow from every pore to
dilute and weaken it, and to pre-
ven, it's shriveling up the delicate
membranes with which it,comes in
contact. From the.stomach, alco-
1hol passes directly into circulation
and in a few minutes is swept
through the entire system, where
it acts as an irritent poison.
Alcoholdiletes the blood vessels,
.quickens the circulation, hasteas
the heart throbs and paralyzes the
nerves that regulate the passage Of
the vital current through the ex-
treme>parts of the body, All this
lis only the first effect of alcohol
upon the heart. Long continued
use of this dirturbing agent causes
muscular degeneration, so that the
heart loses its old power,
There is no other kind of poison
ing which SO degrades brain-struo-
ture and undermines vitel organs.
The tiny vessels of the brain be-
come clogged with blood that is
untitled to nourish, the center of
thought is overpowered, ideas.Hock
together thick and fast, the.tongue
is loosened, the will power is USE
less and the mind is left without
any controlling power. All the
gloss of education and social re-
straint falls off and the lower ma
ture stands revealed.
Through the influence of alcohol
the kidneys in time undergo fat
ty degeneration in which the cells
become filled with particles of ia
and become so modified as to allow
a part of the blood to pass through
them with out performing itswhole
duty.
In discussing the effect of alco-
hol on the different parts of the
body, we find that it does great
harm to the nervous system. 1t
may cheer for the moment, it may
set the sluggish blood in motion,
start the fow of thought and ex-
cite temporary gaiety. 1t mag
enable wearied or feeble organ
ism to do brisk work for short
time; and may make the brain
briefly brilliant, it may excite mus
cles to quick action, but it does
nothing at its own cost, fills up
nothing it has destroyed and itself
leads to destruction. Even the
mental activity it has excited is az
unsafe state of mind; for thelust
poise of the faculties, 80 -essentia.

the presence of the 'intruder.

EAT LESS MEAT AM
MORE SPAGHETTI

Some meat is essential If we are to
have properly balanced food. But
most OF us eat too much meat. Meat
is dear food, it contains a large
PROPORTION Of water and. from a stand
point OF nutrition, there are foods of
greater economi~ value.
Take Faust Spaghetti. It costs 1Oc
a large package. 1t is made of Durum
wheat and is therefore rich in glu-
ten-the food element that builds up
muscle and tissue.
Another important thing: the sys-
tenn absorbs Faust Spaghetti almost
In Its entirety, which means that
there is practically no waste to this
excellent food.
Easy to prepare, easy to digest.
Faust Spaghetti can be served in
many appetizing dishes. Try it.

HIGH COURT HITS
FEES OF SHERIFF
Ruling 10 Made That Accounting Must

DIES MONIES, April 13.-Iowa she-.

Fees paid by the county to sheriffs
for summoning petit and grand jur.
ors are included within the receipts
of the office md must be turned back
to the cour 5 if the fees exceed the

The amount of money allowed by
boards of supervisors per meal for

Following up its decision in the
case of former Sheriff McCord Of Page
county, the supreme court ruled to-
day that former Sheriff William G.
Lotus of Linn county was not en-
titled to any fees for summoning
petit or grand Jurors and that the
money belonged to the county. The
sheriff was suing the county for the
fees and the high court sustained the
decision of the lower court.

VIII Resume Place Among Nations.
Mr. White predicted that the day
will come when India again will be a
leader among other nations and that
this country, at one time in the past
the mother of so many religions, will
again make great contributions to the
religious world.
In speaking OF the work of the Y,
M. G. A. in India, Mr. White said one
of the hardest problems encountered
was to secure secretaries to 60 into
this field. There are two hundred
fifty associations in this country of
over three hundred million people at
the present time. Y. M. C. A. secre-
taries and church missionaries were
the first to teach the leading natives
of this country the great need Of re-
form in their social system.
In remarking on the entrance Of
Indian soldiers in the present war I'M
der English colors, Mr.. White said
that these men, on their return to
their native country, would be held in
the highest esteem, almost worship
ped by the natives. Y. M. c. A. Sec
retaries have been working among
these soldiers and on their return to
India, with the influence they will
have, will do more than anything else
to break down the prejudice against
Europeans and the christian religion.

Community Center q Success.

OSSEO, Wis, April 13.-The COM
munity center theory idealized by
progressive educators. has passed the
experimental stage in Osseo. This
city is to have q municipal opera
house, an art gallery, moving pic
ture theatre, q public library and a
gymnasium, according to plans just

One building-the school house
will house them all. The old school
building, which has been the scene
of many public meetings, is to be

Some time ago Dwight H. Perkins,

building q school house for commu1-

regular school needs, helps rather
than hinders the regular school work.
