BAD JOKE.

III wv.
"Alcohol as a food is a joke, and
rather a bad joke at that" affrms Dr..
Woods Hutchinson.
"Alcohol does not do for us'a single
one of the things. we think it does,
and 1t does a score of other things
which we have no idea of when we
drink 1t.
"Thirty years ago W. were blandly
confident that alcohol was a food be-
cause it could be burned in the body.
Now, we know that the total amount
of alcohol which can be burned in the
body in "a hours is only two
ounces, which would be about the same
amount of energy as n good slice OF
bread and butter; that is to say. about
one-tenth of the fuel required to keep
US alive.
IF we were to attempt to use al
cohol as a serious source Of nourish-
ment we should be blind drunk be-
fore we had taken. more than one
fifth Of the amount needed for a days
rations.
Moreover, even in the small amount
which can be daily consumed and
burned up in the body, its poisonous
effects are at least so per cent greater
than its food value.
It throws the body engine out of
gear almost twice as much as 1t puts
fuel into its fire-box. The amount of
malt taken with 1t in beer and fruit
sugars in wine are SO trifing as to be
not worth counting in our days food
supply"

WORK FOR

II saw not a single man who was
looking for a job as the result of the
closing Of the saloons, breweries and
d%lstilleries," said a former resident of
Seattle, after q visit to that city. "On'
the contrary, I heard on every hand
that there was more work than labor
ers to do 1t. / was told by someone
from the Industrial Brotherhood, n
refuge for down and OUTS that there
was actually nobody without employ,
ment who was able to work. You know
that for two winters preceding the go
ing into effect of the prohibitory law,
we had in Seattle what they called
Hotel Liberty at which, during the
last winter there were housed about
$500 men out Of employment. That

An antialcOhOl exhibit In q certain

Of which were reported to bitterly re-

Threats were said to have been made
by them, SO that the special night

discussion.
One day q fOreign-born citizen stood

in temperance all right. but he had q

was drunk and said SO, but informed
them that liquor was the worst curse
in the world; that though he was o

cry time. He was allowed to talk I'M
til everyone present realized the stu

turned to the two defenders of per-
sonal liberty and remarked, "Gentle-
men, here is a sample of the prod

defending. How do you like the e1-
hibity" There was no reply and soon
they had disappeared, seeming to just
melt away in silence.

Union, giving way before advancing
prohibition sentiment. Five years ago
it had two dry counties; today 1t has
eleven. In 1911 there was one saloon
