Insurance Records Prove Moderate
Drinking Increases Death-rate 35%
Ee Insurance figures prove that the excess of deaths among moderate
drinkers over abstainers runs from 1 1% to 74%. It is the business
of Life Insurance Companies to know the risks a man takes when he
uses liquor. These Insurance men have no theories to prove and no
doctrine to preach. Their figures are as cold as ice, and they make you
pay for the risks you run. To them it is simply business—a matter of
dollars and cents. But to you it is a matter of life and death.
Actuarial Comparison of Death Records
From tables prepared by R. H. Moore, Actuary of the United Kingdom Temperance
and General Insurance Company, based on Records of over 60 years’ experience.
Ages Total Abstainers Moderate Drinkers Excess Deaths Among
Moderate Drinkers
20-30 4,221 4,617 H%
30-40 4,201 7,041 68%
40-50 6,246 10,861 74%
50-60 13,056 18,524 42%
60-70 29,078 34,568 19%
Are You Willing to Die Before
Your Time for Sake of Boose?
THE number of deaths among moderate drinkers averages 35% higher
than among abstainers.
If you have habitually taken two glasses of whiskey per day or the
alcoholic equivalent in beer, your chances of dying before your time are
double those of total abstainers.
It has been costing total abstainers yearly millions of dollars in pre
miums to help to pay for excessive deaths among drinkers! Can we afford
such waste of life and money in the face of the war losses of money and men?
Vote “No” to repealing the Ontario Temperance Act, and “No” to
rendering it practically worthless by the proposed amendments.

THE U. S. SENATE AND
THE PEACE TREATY
The Senate of the United States ap
pears to have as great difficulty in a-
greeing to the treaty of peace with
Germany and to the formation of a
league of Peace as the Peace Confer
ence at Paris had in framing the
terms of the treaty.
One can readily understand that in
the framing of the treaty there were
many conflicting interests to be re
conciled; why the Senate of the Unit
ed States should spend months in dis
cussing it is not so clear. The Sen
ate of the United States by no means
represents so high a level of states
manship as did the Peace Conference
Perhaps that accounts for the trouble.
The Senators are politicians, not
statesmen. They are not so much con-
cerrXd about making arrangements
that will insure, or tend to insure per
manent peace, as they are concerned
about the next presidential ekttions.
It is significant that nearly all the
opposition to the Peace Treaty comes
me may
Democrats mul Republicans
so differently on this important mat
ter? The answer is, “Politics.” The
opposition is not to the Treaty, but to
the President. The President is a de
mt I rat, and the Republican Senators
(some of them, perhaps, with an eye
on the presidential office) will do
what they can to discredit him. Some
of them, doubtless, can see nothing
in the present or any other business
but an opportunity for one party or
the ither to win political advantage.
The United states Senate, to be
sure, never did stand high as a deli
berative body. Generally there are
in the Senate a few of the ablest men
in the country; but the great majority
are merely rich politicians without
and knowledge of world affairs, or
even home affairs except in so far as
their own pockets are affected
President Wilson is at present on a
tour of the country,
sentiment
country to force the
speech-making
in the hope of creating
enopgh in the
balking senators to agree to the
Treaty as it came from the Peace Con
ference. Many friends of the Treaty
however, have about concluded that
the Treaty7 will not be agreed to by
the Senate without “reservations.’’
That is there will be certain features
of the Treaty to which the Senate will
not agree, though accepting the m.|n
parts. It will then be necessary for
the representatives of Britain, France
and the other nations concerned to ac
cept or reject the Treaty in its re-
’vised form. The Treaty, in all likeli
hood, will be so much the worse for
the changes; but the Senate of the
United States will have shown that
the world can’t go on without recog
nizing it. And incidentally the Re
publican Senators will have prevented
President Wilson from becoming quite
the big man he otherwise would have
been.
FACTS ABOUT EDUCATION
From a little pamphlet issued by
the promotors of an Educational Con
ference to be held in Winnipeg or
Oct. 20-22, we learn that Canadians
expend just one million dollars per
week on schools; and that the average
attendance of pupils is just about one
million per day- So that the country
spends just about one dollar per week
or 20 cents per day, on each boy and
| girl who attends school.

Too much eating of heavy, highly-
eeasoned foods and too little out
door exercise are the most frequent
causes. The liver is upset, becomes
torpid and inactive, the bowels are
constipated, the kidneys are over
worked in an effort to get rid of
the accumulating poisons and break

limbs sound a warning note, and
when this is not heeded the natural
development is rheumatism, lum

of kidney disease.
To best overcome this condition
Dr- Chase worked out in his private
practice a prescription which has
come to be known as Dr. Chase’s
Kidney-Ldver Pills, because of their
combined action on these filtering
organs. No treatment has ever
proven so successful in awakening

had heard of Dr. Chase’s Kidney-
Liver Pills being good for this, so
I commenced taking them. I had
only taken a couple of boxes when
the trouble was all lemoved.”
Mrs. M. Nickels, 192 Milton
street, Sarnia, writes: “I have found
Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills an ex

ably with kidney trouble and back
ache, but after I had taken five
boxes of the Kidney-Liver Pills they
gave me relief. Since then, which

Other interesting facts set forth
the pamphlet are that in a total
about 40,000 school teachers in Can

per year to $3,500 per year.
It is to be hoped that the teachei

MARKING THE BALLOT
It is said that a Toronto woman
who is a very enthusiastic supporter
of prohibition said that, when she
came to mark her ballot, she would
write the word “no” right across it.
If she does that, her ballot will be
spoiled, and her vigorous vote will
count for nothing. As the campaign
proceeds; every voter in the province
will have an opportunity to see and
examine fac-similies of the ballot to be
used,

It will be scene that the words

Any marks other than the

crosses—one opposite each question,
(f one marks only two or three of the
questions the ballot will not be coun

The referemdum campaign will
develop largely into a school of in
struction in marking the ballot. It
s fortunate for those voting the first
time that one may consistintly vote
‘yes” or “no” on all four questions.
PERSONAL LIBERTY
AND CIVIL LIBERTY
In a letter which he recently wrote
to Joseph Gibson, Postmaster of In
gersoll, Mr. J- C. Mickle of Chesley,
points out an important distinction
between Personal and Civil Liberty.
His Letter follows.
Joseph Gibson Esq.
Ingersoll, Ont.
Dear Sir:—
' I listened with ^reat attention to
your excellent address in Geneva
Church last night but there was one
statement which you made which I
believe to be an error and I think you
could strengthen your argument if the
error is corrected.
You stated that it was claimed that
prohibition was an interference with
personal liberty and admitted that this
was correct, but you justified it by
illustration. The first temperance
address which I gave some 30 years
ago was on personal and civil liberty
and I had drawn my argument from
Blackstone’s Commentaries on the
Laws of England, the highest author-
it>'. en th m uo uh
;h6 pulpii IR gGfjel’&l
I have noticed a Strange confounding
if personal with civil liberty. As a
a matter of fact they are quite dist
inct. Personal liberty is the liberty
of the person and the loss of that
liberty is regarded as an untold dis--
aster. The Negroes of South Africa
were deprived of their personal liber
ty when they were carried into slav
ery. Blackstone defines personal lib
erty as a “right of locomotion to go
where one pleases, and when only so
far restrained as the rights of others
make it necessary for the welfare of
all citizens.” That is the true meaning
if personal liberty, and it has no
more to do with prohibition than the
tiewing of a Manx Cat has to do with
the music of the Spheres. When
that league was formed at Toronto
under the caption of the Citizen's Per
sonal Liberty League, the motive was
to impose upon the public by making
it appear that so precious a right as
personal librty was endangered It was
a piece of clap-trap, and every lawyer
associated with the League must have
known it.
Civil liberty is defined by Black
stone as “the natural liberty of a mem
ber of society, so far restrained thru
man-made laws as is necessary for the
jood of society.” I note this definiti
on has been approved by American
jurists, and is referred to in American
text books. It is the definition of
Blackstone, and it is by this definition
that every law must be tested. If the
.aw which it is sought to impose is
not necessary for the good of society
and expedient for the general advant-
fage of the public, then there is no in
fringement, and the law in itself con
stitutes one of the bulwarks of cviil
iberty.
The arrant nonsense which is so of
ten talked and written about the at
tack upon our personal liberty always
jars upon me, because it is the purest
kind of camouflage.
Yours very truly,
' C. J. Mickle.
