EVIL EFFECTS OF MODERATE DRINKING. - A man may drink for years and stop, but the effects of the drinking cil<1a ueY er bo repaired, except in f4 fay slight degree. The Misconcep- tion that a moderate drinker is un- affected and is the same as before is a very serious one. Moderate drinkers do not always die as drunkards or "inebriates. , The degeneration.: which follows is �een tn„,.,,,;��.d: r_ ,x the kidkeys,. of the stomach arn liver., which Comes ou ‘ suds -:y, and always ends fatally in a very brief time. The normal forces of vitality have been diminish- ed and the resisting power to disease destroyed. The moderate drinker is preparing the grotand and promoting the con- ditions of sudden death by the con- tinuous poisoning process of small quantities of spirits taken daily. In reality the most diseased, degenerate, and incompetent persons are moderate drinkers. A Sad Reaping. Slight injuries and shocks of all kinds end in death. Failures of both body and mind follow from the most trifling causes. Such persons may live for years and may seem to be well, but examination and experience shows the contrary. This delusion is recognized in business circles where moderate drinkers are not employed, particularly in work that requires exactness of mental and bodily ac- tivities. Scientific teachings are constantly accumulating, showing that these three great delusions are responsible for the beer drinker, the whisky drinker, the wine drinker, and the army of men and women who live on the faith that the theories which have come down from the past are veri- table and real to -clay. The greatest efforts of to -day should be to dispel these and other delusions which have grown up and settled about the alco- holic problem. The teachings of the twentieth century call for the facts and their recognition, and a study of the laws which govern them. Ethel M.
