Aleobol and the nervous system: Tee
lame authority eays: "Alcohol is un-
questionably .a direct aud powerful poi-
son to the nervous structure. It not
only temporarily impaire and prevents
the activity of nervous tissue,. but in a.
measure, though at times very minute
and almost bnperceptible, every doe° of
it permanenely disables the -functional
activity of those organs. We sum up the.
direct and indirect effects. of alcohol
so far as they pertain to the nervous
systeinas follows: 1. The loss of' moral
and ethical sense. 2. Insanity of jeal-
ousy. 3. Delusional insanity with benne-
Mations. 4. Delirium tremens. 5. Epilep-
sy. 6. Paralysis. 7. Various inflamma,
tioue of nervous tissue.
"Alcohol is one ef the moet powerful
agencies engaged in the effort of de-
grading, depressing- and weakening the
human race. It is one of the worst en-
emies of nmukind and one -of the most
powerful causes of degeneracy. Degener-
acy may manifest itself by various phy-
sical imperfections of bodily develop-
ment, but the real dangerous degener-
acy means• permanent disability of tbe
most highly organized. tissue of the
body -the brain and nervous system in
general."
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
Here is an exhortation to avoid the
sin of drunkenness. "Look not thou up-
on the wine when it is red" (v. 31). The
juice of certain kinds of wine is red
when it ferments and becomes intoxica-
ting.. The onlysafe Way is to let it en-
tirely alone, not even to look upon it.
fts very sparkling, bubbling appearance,
if looked upon, may be a source of
temptation. It is the first drink that
should be avoided. if we would not be-
come drunkards. Once we begin to travel
in the downward path by taking the
first drink, the descent is easy, natural
and swift. If we do not "look" upon it,
it is evident that we shall not take the
first drink and. thus endanger our
souls. That we may heed the exhorta-
tion he calls our attention to the per-
niciops consequences of using strong
drink.
It brings sorrow ana woe (v. 20).
They that :tarry long .at the wine-cim
soon bring trouble and woe to them-
eelves. This icalows just as certaioiy
as does effect follow cause. The drunk-
ard is "content and appropriate hinge -
age is that of lamentation -the piteoue
cry of pain, the agonized exclamation of
remorse."
H. It embroils men in quarrels (,20),
It makes them quarreleoine, in -natured.
ill-tempered, cross and surly, ante eausei
them to do and say things that involve
them in difficulties with others. It is
the prolific source of strife and quarrel -
tee, in the perpetual atmosphere of
wriieh tbe victim of strong drink lives.
"When the wine is in, the wit is out and
the passions up; and thence come drunk-
en scuffles and drunken frais, and drun-
ken disputes, over tbe cup: Personal as-
saults and nuirders without number are
directly treceable to the quarrels inspir-
ed by the intoxicatinge bowl. There are
many men, who when sober are kind and
inoffensive, but mini wen under the in -
Mince of strong drink are perfect de-
mons, and will strike down their dear-
est frientle if they should have a real
or eupposed grievanee against them.
M. It brings wounds without caese
and redness of „eyes (v, 20). Wounds
. received in defence of one's eountry are
honorable, and we all do honor to the
battle -scared veterans of the war, but
mounds received in drunken brawls and
in the service of lust, and passion are
marks of infamy. Not only do they re.
eeive "the bruise and the gash which re.
•etilt front ferious sparrings or unfore

"t was not siek" (v. 35), One evil effect
of the driek is thet ib makes the Bente

Burn the Weed Slowly, Austrian Scien-
tists Advise.
London,March 22. -According to Vien-

Drs. Lieberman and Davidocs, have come

and experimentation, that it is much

Further investigation showed that
these differences were duo to the length

utes 'prodticed nearly three times as
many yellowish -brown spots as if smok-

'The professors, therefore, ccnicluded
that a vapid smoker inhales a much

Fifty newsboys with their "huskies"
marched to tite attack of eyery car that
made its way aroend the Randolph
street loop, The reilroad company had
provided an extra conductor for each ear
and a gang ot guards at the crossings.
The result was broken heeds and black.
oneda eyes, and cuts and bruiees without
number,
The police entered into the melee with
caution at first, They had orders to
"keep the peace, bet not hit any of the
boys,."
in the thick of the battle, however,
several policemen lost their heads anti
with brutel courage assaulted. boys that
came up to their knees. One boy's head
was cut open by 41. blow from a police-
man's club.
Tee conductor( first pushed the, boys
off smilingly, but after a few of them
got hit with rocks and saw their trot,
toys eut they fell to kieleing at the mtg.
or faces that coestantly pressed over the
platforms. Some of the eonductors as a
consegeence were beaten into uncoil-
seiousness by men of their own size.
Passengers Innocent Victims.
The not result of the affray was that
passengers were balf an hour or an hour
late in getting home. The elevated was
taken by roost of the frightenea women.
The ears were blockaded for two hours.
Spectators in the street were hustled
and.throwliout of the way by the pace,
Four newsboys and,one slugger for the
railroad company were arrested.
Ten minutes after the newsboys, un-
der the command of Max Annenberg,
each with A roll of papers under his arm
and a nickel clutched in his hands, ar-
rived they had traffic hopelessly block-
aded.
The dark valley under the Wabash av-
enue elevated became a gory field of bat-
tle, with the contending forces surging
back and. forth in -a glory of menacing
lists and distorted fans, The people
who came to take the Indiana avenue
and Cottage Grove avenue cars gave one
look at the scene and fled up the ele-
vated stairs.
Lilliputians Eager for Fray.
The conductors did. mit waste time in
arguments, They had their instruc-
tions. They had to fight, not collect
fares. The crowd pressed forward in a
compact, yelling mass. Some one pulled
the trolley off the \vire. A few boys
jumped for a conductor's face. Then in
the darkened car the screaming passen-
gers -rushed in panic waves for the front
exit, while the rear platform was a scene
of flying fists aud hair. This was the
method of attack. When the first few
boys were hurled out, others packed in
after them. The conductor of car 5412
kicked at the first boy to get into the
car, and then drew a blaajack to threat-
en those following. In a flash one Of
the strong erne followers of the "news -
ter etambered on the platform and
aeon the conductor two swift blows in
the face that sent him sprawling. The
conductor oL car 5451 was keocked down
the same manner and trampled on.
One ear went by with the conductor lean-
ing weakly over the *railing, his face
streaming blood. -
Girl Shopper in Terror.
Women shoppers were caught in the
fight and roughly treated. Ono young
girl, her face as white as a sheet, flat-
tened herself against the rear Of the car
she was trying to enter .and looked on
at the fight with eyes wild with terror.
On every, side of her escape was cut off.
Around her men and. boys were falling.
She saw bleckjacks and pieces of gas
pipe brought into action. Her hat was
nearly torn off by tin arm that reached
over her to hit the conductor in the •fitee.
This was one of the ineidents of the
hemegoing throng.
Toward 6 o'clock the battle became
worse. The conmany tried strategy. The
ears were switched baek at, Monroe
eereet'and sent south. This oaly changed
the scene of the fight a block south.
Capt. Gibbons and his handful of &lin

the pollee were lenient. Then an extra,
squad was sent for and the 'rouble began,
Policeman Charged With Brutality.
Policemen Sullivan and Crozier soon
brought the hatred of the newsboys upon
themselves. Sullivan was charged with

FRENCH CHAMBERS CONSENT TO A
COMPROMISE MEASURE.
The Employees to Contribute- State

$'72,
Paris, Marsh 22,a -Finding that the
continued opposition. of the Senate to
the workmen's. old age pension bill, pass.
ed by the Chamber in 1906, promised to
postpone indefinitely the realization of
this social reform which the Radical
wing of the French Republicans have
been promising for years, the Chambers
have finally conserited to the prineiple
of a compromise and have /cited a reso-
lution serving notice on the Government
and the Senate that this compromise
must become law before the' expiration
of, the present year.
'By the terms of the bill Workmen con-
tribute 2 per cent. of their wages and.
the employees a like percentage 'during
• period of 30 years, thus creating a
fund from which the wOrkman hereafter
is tO receive an annual minimum pension
of $72. The State is to contribute only
when the forced savings of the workmen
do not create a fund large enough to
Welsh a 'pension of that amount.
'Upon the promulgation of the Itew
propesed to grant annual pensions to
an workmen over 60 who haveeworked
30 years, ana then gradually increase the
scale of pensions of those "graduating"
each succeeding year until, at the end
of 30 years all will receive at least $72.
The liability after the scheme is in "per-
manent" operation is fixed approximate-
ly at $68,000,000, The Chaniber has
agreed to the principle of absolutely lim-
iting the Government liability for the
present to $20,000,000 annually, and it is
believed that the results will jostify the
complete scheme.
