who pays his bills is charged higher
price to cover the loss the storekeeper
sustalns by failure of the drinking
man to pay what he owes. When
crime is committed or family impov-

"All life should evolute," he SAYS 4:
alcohol produces evolution. Take the
largest and finest breed of dogs-the
Great Dane, for example-and for
three or four generations feed them
daily little alcohol and what is the
resultf What was previously large,
noble animal will deteriorate Into q
swapping, snarllng, fighting, almost
hairless, insignificant little cur. And

Insanity and war.
I'm this dawn of the twentieth cen.
tury 1t may be truthfully affirmed that
the aggressive war brain Is the brain
that directly, or Indirectly through he
redity, has been poisoned by alcohol.
The alcoholic brain cannot evolve
those emotions Of the human soul that
make for peace. We may talk peace,
legislate for peace, and make peace
treaties, but wars will never cease till
the brain Is freed from the corrodlng
effects Of alcohol.
