Christian Can Lack NOTHING.

Why should l be anticipating evils,
instead of blessings, when such a God
is mine? Is life to be filed with
mournful sunsets only? Are there to
be no beautiful sunrises too? The
coming days stand before me, like
empty vessels waiting to be filled. If
/ myself fill them up with my forebod-
iDgs and alarms, what they hold will
be bitter enough. But if l suffer God
to fill them, they will overflow with
the good wine of his joy. And when,
at last, the journeyings are over, the
wilderness is passed, and the fights
are done, and my loving Master. in
the good land beyond, asks me to look
back and say whether on earth, while
serving him, / EVER lacked anything
did really need, my thankful lips will
have only this to answer, "Nothing."-
Rev. G. H. Knight.

A GREAT LESSON.

Among the ~incalculable losses re-
sulting from this great war there
stands out prominently one benefit; it
has brought to all countries engaged
in it-and to others-a realization such
as they never had before of the rela-
ton between alcohol and efficiency.
Something, and perhaps much, of that
new knowledge is sure to remain af-
ter peace returns, for, of course, it is
not only with success in fighting that
strong drink interferes, or only in war
that men need to have all their wits
about them all the time.-New York
Times.
The Penn's Grove record., 1916-04-28
OF ALCOHOL.

That the use of peel and wines does
not tend to decrease the consumption
of strong liquors, is shown by Gabriel
son, a Swedish statistician who has
published the results of his re-
searches. The figures are for the Pc
riod 1906-1910.
France more than three
times as much alcohol per capita as
the United. States, due to it's general
use of wine. Italy nsum nearly
three times as much, Spain twice as
much, Greece twice as much, Switzer-
land twice as much, Portugal nearly
twice as much. Belgium consumes
considerably more alcohol, although
it is one of the leading beer countries.
In Germany 40 per cent of the total
drink consumption is of spirits, while
in the United States more than SIS
per CEN OF the total drink consumption
is beer, which seems to indicate that
the Germans, despite their beer preju-
dices, use considerably more spirits
per capita than the United States.

by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful Of limestone

ton of hot water and limestone phos-
plate on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. 1t cleans out all the
sour lamentations, gases, waste and
acidity and gives one a splendid ap-
petite for breakfast. While you are
enjoying your breakfast the water and
phosphate is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flushing
of all the inside organs.

tempts to show that union labor as a
whole is supporting the liquor inter-
ests will not be permitted to go un-
challenged" says the president of the
league, Mr.. 1. J.. Copenharve Of the
Omaha Typographical union.
The league has issued the following
statement:
THE object of this league Is to i'm
press upon the general public that GER
tain labor organizations and Trade
Union Liberty Leagues controlled by
the liquor interests, do not voice the
true sentiment of the labor organiza-
tions of Nebraska in their effort to
make it appear that the laboring class
is subservient to the whims of said
liquor industry.
ut shall be the aim of this organ
ization to publicly disclaim in every
way possible that union labor of Ne
braska looks upon the use Of liquor
as an aid to it's welfare and advance
ment, but rather that the use Of in
toxicating liquor is the greatest handi-
cap union labor has to contend with
in making its fight for justice for the
working class.
THE members Of this league resent
any effort of the liquor element to
place union labor of Nebraska in the
attitude of supporting an industry that
never has and never can aid the work
ingman in his struggle for better con-
ditions for himself and family"

WET BRAIN,

WET BRAIN.
DR.. w. A. Evans conducts an How
to Keep Well" department in Chicago
Tribune. The other day, under the
above caption, he devoted consider
able space to the drinkers brain.
"The man." he said, who takes a
social drink should know of a new
danger that lies in store for him. 1t
is wet brain. He has probably heard
that drink lowers the moral tone, that
it weakens resistance, that If he in
dulges presently he will be unable to
resist, that it makes his judgment
poor, and that, finally, he develops de-
lirium tremens. Delirium tremens was
the veil beyond which nothing lay.
Doctors Sceleth and Beifeld now
come forward with the warning that
beyond delirium tremens lies wet
brain, that only n man in four at
tackled by wet brain RECEIVERS. And
Doctors Sceleth and Beifeld ought to
know, for the former has been physi-
clan to the bridewell for many years
and he has cared for about $500
DRINKS a year during all Of that time.
A great many of these DRINKS have
had delirium tremens. Many of them
have had wet brain. Most of the wet
brain cases have died and autopsy has
been made on them. Every drink is a
mixed drink. There are no other
kinds. When a man takes a drink,
however simple it may be, he mixes in
some degeneration of his nerve cells,
some chance of delirium tremens, and
a few other ingredients. Let him I'M
derstand that he also pours into the
glass about one finger of wet brain"
