the fewer stimulants mankind uses the

NEI-oecfctdrJ OF StGteJ
That man can live Wi .hout alcoholic slim
ulants is demonstrated by the fact that
many do.
Alcohol is a poison, as much so as the
drugs which kill more quickly. The human
race would be better off if not drop Of
alcohol were manufactured in the world, 50
greatly does the harm done by it outweigh
any service it renders as medicine
ii some ere such helpless victims of apps-
tlte that they will resort to other poisons
when they cannot secure alcohol the fact
IS an argument in favor Of prohibition
rather than against it.
1t is better that few drunkards should
die than that the number Of drunkards
should be increased by the temptation o.
fered through the saloon. Since alcohol IS
the enemy of the home as we'll as of the IN
dlvldual and corrupts politics as we'll as de-
moralizes society, there can be no defence
made for it.

clear that they should be entirely elim-

By HARVEY w. WILEY, M. D.
director Bureau Of Foods, Sanitation, and Health
Can man live without stimulants? Yes
But ne won't. First of all, what is a
stlmulant? The proper answer is that
which specifically excites without neces
sarily nourishing. In one sense, food is a
stlmulant, but food stimulates by nourish-
ing. So we may eliminate this phase of
summation from consideration. Among the
drugs which stimulate without nourishing
may be reckoned, first of all, alcohol. 1t
is claimed by some Psychologists that alco-
MOI is food. No one versed in detetic
lore VIII deny that alcohol is burned in
the body up to certain limit, and fur
nishes both heat and energy. If sugar
De converted into alcohol it makes almost
nall OF its weight in alcohol. If that alco-
mol be burned it produces as much heat
practlcally as the sugar from which it is
made would produce if burned In point
OF tact, alcohol has no practical value
as food. It's toxic effects far more
'hah counterbalance any good which may
come from Its consumption. Moreover the
stimulating effects of alcohol are largely
llluslonary.
Carefully controlled scientific exneri-
efficiency is diminished by alcohol instead
OF increased. Hence the so-called stimulat-
ing effect is due to the wrongful interpre-
tatlon OF psychological phenomena Other
afugs also have stimulating effects; among
these | mention strychnine, which is sun
posed to have stimulating effect physi-
cally upon the organism, and caffeine
which is supposed to have a stimulatin~
effect mentally. Quite number of CONNIE.
tent eXperlmenters have found that caffeine
eSerts no dcleterious influence upon mental
operation when used in moderation. There
is no question. however, of the fact that it
produces wakefuness. lnasmuch as sleep is
physiological necessity, any drug which
'h,erleres with sleep must in the end prove
deleterlous even to mental efficiency
Increased efficiency under stimulation
cannot be determined solely by the i'm
medlateiy following phenomena due to the
stimulus. The whole course of each ;nd;-
vidual stimulus must be taken into cons;d
Grafton and also its continued use In
so far as scientific results have been oh
tanned OF such general view, it must be
confessed that they are opposed to the idea
OF any beneficial effect whatever COMING
from stimulent.
IN the same category are the so-called
sedatlve drugs, in which nicotine and NOR
phlhe are classed. The sense of rest and
relief IS not reality. The scnsibilitv of
the patient is deadened and thus deceived
INTO 1orgetfulness. Humanity would be far
oetter or If all stimulant and sedative
orugs could be relegated solely to the do
nam OF medicine, where they rghtfullv be-
long. The healthy man needs no stimulant
and no sedative except the desire to work
and the fatigue of labor.
