ment. All district boards have been
notified that they positively must GER

AND MEDICINE.

A smashing of ancient idols has oc.
Cured in our ideas of the value Of al
cohol as a medicine. Seventy-five, yes,
80 years ago 1t was one Of the most
wide1y-used remedies, not only in
household but also in professional
medicine. We gave it to reduce
fever and to brace up depression, to
improve the appetite and to- lessen
oyereating in sedentary occupations.
to stimulate the heart and to lower
arterial tension, to break up a cold
and to overcome shock. It was be-
lieved to ward Off infection, to make
blood, and to support the strength in
septic fevers. - ,gH"
Now we know that it is not n stimu-
liant or tonic, but a depressant; that
though in small doses 1t increases the
flow Of gastric juice at the beginning
of a meal, it checks the process Of
actual digestion Of the food later, so
that one influence Just balances the
other, and in small doses its net effect
upon appetite and digestion is just pre-
cisely nothing at all, while in large
doses 1t Is ruinous.

AMERICAS FIRST DUTY.


The greatest need in America today
is the formation of new national
mind, the construction of a new ma
tional conscience and a reformation
that will bring about a new nation-a
nation with firmer purpose, a clearer
vision and complete understanding
of the words patriotism and Ameri-
canism.
To bring this condition about, the
first problem to be solved is the liquor
problem, and the liquor problems only
solution is wiping it entirely and un-
equivocally of the map. To accom-
plish the coming of the New Ameri-
Ca" every saloon beneath the stars and
stripes must be closed.
The great political parties have
failed to respond to this call, for they
do not want the responsibility, and the
time has come for the American people
to disregard political parties and rise
up In a great army and with all their
strength solve the question themselves.
Americas danger is not from with
out it is from within. Whatever crisis
the United States is facing or will face
is coming, or will come, from internal
causes. It is the American people who
have their own problem to settle, their
own future to decide. And the first
step in this settlement and decision Is
the elimination of the saloon.-Ex-Go

LOCAL OPTION.

Christian Temperance Union.)

10SA6 WIN l.. .
Mr.. J. p. Newell Of Portland, Ore,
has illustrated the local option policy
by comparison with the levee sys-
tenn Of the Mississippi. He says:
''When the country was first settled
the planters looked upon the floods as
a necessary evil. Then one here and
there began to build levees around his
plantation. This proved highly profit
able and the practice spread. Piece
by piece was reclaimed and the low
lands made habitable. But as the
number of levees increased it was no.
ticed that the difficulty Of maintain
Ing them increased also. The floods,
restricted in area, grew in height. The
expense of protection became SO great
that many could not afford 1t, and be-
came discouraged. 1t was found nee
and join in large districts comprising
all the territory lying naturally to-
gether. By this plan few large
levees kept up by all the people of the
district are sufficient to afford protec-
tion even from extraordinary floods
and the difficulty and expense Of main
tenance are greatly reduced.
'"The local option system has worked
well for a time, but 1t has proved in
sufficient. AS the reclaimed district
Increases in extent, the pressure
against the dikes becomes more severe.
The liquor power, as its territory is
reduced in area, becomes more de-
termined in its efforts to regain the
lost ground, for its leaders realize
that their dominion everywhere is
threatened by successful revolt any
where. Our safety lies in going for
ward. If we stop we shall lose all we
have gained"
