GIVES SOME FACTS ON
DRINKING
r ASkoV American:

Editor ASkOV American:
Knowing these facts about drink
ing may cause some person to retract;
l. Moderate drinking tends to
drunkenness, while total abstinence
directly from it.
2. 1t is said on reliable authority
that in recent years one boy in five
becomes addicted to drink by the
time he is 81 years of age.
3. Intoxicating drinks can do no
good as a beverage, and there are
always safer and surer remedies to
use in case of sickness.
4. The idea of moderation is full
of deceit, and our estimate of the
power of our own will is usually a
mistaken one.
5. The drinking habit is the cause
of the larger portion of the misery,
poverty and crime in our land.
6. Both science and experience
prove that even moderate drinking
is injurious to health.
Z. Eternal interests are often for
feited through drink, for the Bible
declares that no drunkard shall en-
ter heaven.
8. The Bible pronounces no blessing
upon drinking but many upon total
abstinence.
9. 1t is easier to keep pledge pub
licly, solemnly given than a simple
resolution.
10. The pledge protects us from the
solicitations of friends, and removes
us from the temptations of the sa-
loon.
IL. Persons miscalculate their abil-
ity to drink in moderation, and be-
come slaves to the drinking habit be-
fore they are aware of it.
IL. Intemperance obstructs civiliza-
ton, education, religion and every
useful reform.
