WHY Is BEER WORSE
THAN WHISKEY?
To the Editor: -
Over twenty-five years age Sir John
.9 McDonald appointed a royal commis.
sion to enquire into the liquor problem.
The Chairman of the Commission, Judge
Clark, stated that neatly all the doc.
tors said that Beer was worse than
whiskey, hut, at that time we could not
tell the reason why.
Some year; after that the great in-
vestigator, Von;Noorden, discovered In
Beer an acid to which he did not give a
name, which wrought havoc on
the kidney, heart and liver, So the
matter stood until Prof. Heintzer of
Gratz, discovered that the Lupulin
Glands of the bops secreted no:; only
this acid which he calls Hop acid, but
also a peculiar resin, bearing a close
resemblance to the resin secreted by
the Indian Hemp. from which comes
the dreadful Hashish.
The Bremin Anti -Alcohol. Congress
concluded that while Whiskey and
Brandy makes a man crazy, Beer tends
to make him stupid. Dr. Forel, of the
University of Zurich, says "The drink-
ing of Beer has killed the ideals and
ethics and has produced an incredible
vulgarity". The reason for the brutal
sottishness is that each pint of beer
contains besides a small glass of pure
Alcohol, a percentage of Lupulin, the
active principal of Hops, which acts
very much like the poisonus principal of
Indian Hemp. At one time Indians
Hemp was used as a medicine, but it
had to be given up on account of its
varying abd poisonous characterstics,
Prof, Forel, of the University of
Zurich, the first great institution in
Europe to give up Alcohol as a medicine
reported that the beer drunkards out-
numbered the spirits drunkards by 9 to
1. Dr. Delbruck says that Beer and
Wine countries such as France, Ger-
many, Belgium and Bavaria, are more
alcohol Soaked than the Whiskey and
Brandy countries, and concludes that
the Beer danger is much greater than
the Spirit danger.
A pamphlet entitled "Alcohol and the
Power of Resistance" circulated widely
among the German soldiers says "There
is no justification for calling Beer.
Liquid Bread, a glass of heavy Beer,
costing 25 Pfennings contains less
nourishment than a piece of cheese
costing 1 Pfenning, Almost all
excesses and disturbance in the army
are traced to drink, and it is mostly
Beer that causes the mischief. Beer is
not the harmless drink it is supposed
to be.

DON'T ALLOW HENS TO EAT
EGGS.
No flock of chickens will prove pro-
fitable if they are consumers of their
own products. Egg eating is a vice
which has ruined a great many flocks of
laying hens. See that your hens have
access to plenty of grit and lime and
are given plenty of protein -contents
feeds. Bran, middlings, meat, milk,alfalfa leaves, vegetables, sprouted
grains are all valuable in supplying the
need of protein and scqulent feeds.
One broken or soft-shelled egg will
often start an entire flock in the habit
of eating eggs. Furnish plenty of
attractive nests to avoid crowding, It
is best to have nests secluded and dark-
ened and rather high up.
Some such device, as filling an egg
shell;with ground mustard paste or red
pepper will often break up the habit,
but unless they are exceptionally valu-
able birds, confirmed eggeatera should
be discarded.

IRON IN THE BLOOD
In order to be healthy we need an
abundance of "good red blood," and
in order to have this, we must see to it
that we supply our bodies with iron,
for iron, as we know, is a necessary
constituent of the red corpuscles of
the blood. The numerous experiments
which have been made, indicate rather
clearly that the bulk of this iron
should be supplied by the food, rathc r
than by medicines. The latter, it ap-
pears, is of use chiefly when taken in
conjunction with a diet rich in iror,
For our supply of iron, then, we must
took to our food, and not to medi-
cine and mineral waters.
Of the foods containing large amounts
of iron we may name eggs, beans and
peas; such cereals as are used without
the removal of their outer covering, as
for example, oatmeal and whole wheat
flour; such fresh vegetables as spinach,
lettuce, and cabbage; and such fruits as
prunes and raisins. The iron content of
meat is rather high, it is true, but this
iron being largely in the form of hemo-
globin, it is but little used by the body.

AGAINST POCKETS FOR WOMEN
1. Because pockets are not a natural
right.
2. Because the great majority of wo-
inen do not want pockets. If they did
they would have them.
3. Because whenever women have
had pockets they have not used them.
4. Because women are required to
carry enough things as it is, without
the additional burden of pockets.
5. Because it would make dissen-
sion between husband and wife as to
whose packets were to be filled.
6. Because it would destroy man's
chivalry toward woman, if he did not
have to carry all her things in his
pockets.
7. Because men are men, and women
are women. We must not fly in the
face of nature.
8. Because pockets have been used
to carry tobacco, pipes, whiskey
flasks, chewing gtlrn and compromis-
ing letters. We see no reason to• sup-
pose that women would use them more

MODERN GREEKS.
They Show Little of the Grace of Their
Famous Ancestors.
Against the background of antiquity
It is easy to project the ties of senti-
meat which bind the life of the Greek
of today to that of the classic worthies
from whom he.claims direct descent,
and it was with only a slight shock
that I learned that the man who
brought me my morning coffee at the
legation bore the tremendous name of
Themistocles. And yet it is difficult to
visualize the modern Athenian with
those who once walked his streets.
Thinking of Homer, of Praxiteles and
of Phidias, one looks for Helen, for
Hermes and for .achene, but the only
Helen I ever saw in Athens was an
American girl, married to a member of
the cabinet and whose golden hair,
blue eyes and classic features made
her at once the reigning hostess in the
city, And it is only in the islands or
deep in the country, where the Alba-
nian flood which swept across the At-
tie plain has never reached, that one
finds the facial lineaments and the
bodily grace which the ancient sculptor
has taught the modern world as being
common to all Greeks of classic time.
This survival persists chiefly among
the children. because incessant toil and
scanty nourishment soon deprive both.
boys and girls of their native grace
and stamp them with the ineradicable
marks of a life of labor

Nay, "God bless the coal heaver or

!execrations for not contributing to our
Comfort just so and so and so.
It is with great fervor, however, that
we can say, "God bless the poor," be-
cause the poor do not interfere with
bur comfort to the slightest degree.
Making Tommy Attractive.
Ethel, the twelve -year-old daughter
of a family that resides in an uptown
apartment house, recently said to her
mother:
"Mother, I wish you'd wash fibm-
my's face:"
Now, Tommy was the son of the man
,whose apartment adjoined theirs, so
mother was both alarmed and aston--
tshed•

Ws a neighbor's child! I have nothing
to do with him,"
"Ent I have," explained Ethel.
