What Do They Cure?
The above question is oft^n asked con
cerning Dr. 1*tree’s two leading medi
cines, "Golden Medical Discovery” and
“Favorite Prescription.”
Tho answer is that "Golden Medical
Discovery ” is a most potent alterative or
blood-purifier, and tonic or invigorator
and acts especially favorably in a cura
tive way upon all the mucous lining sur
faces, as of the nasal passages, throat,
bronchial tubes, stomach, bowels and

A book of particulars wraps each bottle
giving the formula) of botli medicines and
quoting what scores of eminent med
ical authors, whoso works are consulted
by physicians of all tho schools of practice
as guides in prescribing, say of each in
grelient entering into these medicines.
The words of praise bestowed on tho
several ingredients entering into Doctor
Pierce’s medicines by such writers should
have more weight than any amount of
non - professional testimonials, because
such men are writing for the guidance of
their medical brethren and know whereof
they speak.
Doth medicines are non-alcoholic, non
secret, and contain no harmful hahit
forming drugs, being composed of glyceric
extracts of tho roots of native, American
medicinal forest plants They are both
sold by dealers in medicine. You can’t
afford to accept as a substitute for one of
these medicines of known composition,
any secret nostrum.

Salt a Luxury.
Salt is the greatest luxury known

among the poorer inhabitants salt is

iclasses, a man who eats salt with hi3
food is considered a rich individual,
tin some tribes where salt is not so
iscarce children are so fond of it that
they may be seen eating it just as
tour children would eat pieces of lump
sugar.

ALCOHOL A HANDICAP.
A Practical Test of the Influence of
Alcohol on Workmen.
In a recent lecture on “The Physical
Effects of Alcohol in So-called Medi
cinal Doses,” widely published in medi
cal circles, Dr. G. E. Benton, P. H. C.,
of Chester, Va., gave an interesting ac
count of an experiment conducted by
Prof. Krapelin, the eminent German
scientist and alcohol expert. The ex
periment aimed to determine the in
fluence of alcohol in a performance of
practical work involving mental pro
cesses. One and a quarter ounces of al
cohol in the form of Greek wine were ad
ministered to each of four typesetters.
The subjects were all accustomed to
the use of beer, but were required to
abstain during the experimental
period, and every detail was arranged
so the test was scientifically accurate
and simultaneously adapted to the
every day life of the men, with the one
exception of enforced abstinence. On
the second and fourth day each man
was given the one and one-quarter
ounces of alcohol 15 minutes before
the regular working test began. The i
results showed that there were no!
more errors than usual, but the amount |
of work done with alcohol was 15 per j
cent, less than that done without it. !
Commenting on the result ascertained, j
Dr. Benton states: “Here we have a |
scientific demonstration pf the effect
of an allowable medicinal dose of alco- j
hoi a little less than the usual physio- j
logical limit, administered but once in :
24 hours and reducing the output of j
labor involving mental process to the j
extent of 15 per cent. All scientists |
who are giving special attention to the ,
study of the alcohol question now are '
arriving at much the same conclusions
as the result of their investigations.
All agree that very much harm may re
sult from its use. The past promiscu
I ous prescribing of alcohol by the medi
cal profession must be considered as
the outgrowth of custom and routine,
rather than accurate knowledge or dis
cretion. Therefore, it is evident that
the true knowledge of the action of
alcohol by physicians and the general
public will restrict its promiscuous
use to a very large extent.”
ALCOHOLISM AND INSANITY.
The Latter Is a Direct Result of the
Former.
Dr. Savage recognizes that alcoholic
Intemperance is a potent cause not
only of actual insanity, but also of
nervous weakness anrl instability both
in the individual and in his offspring.
Nevertheless, says London Hospital,
he argues the increase of insanity at
the present time certainly bears no
actual relationship to the consumption
of alcohol, for he feels no doubt that
the English people are far more tem
perate than was formerly the case and

that improvement in this respect is
particularly marked in the lower and
middle classes. Hence the recogniz
ed increase in insanity cannot be di
rectly placed to the charge of alcohol.
Further, Dr. Savage remarks that
the large number of total abstainers
be sees in consulting practice has
sometimes made him wonder wheth
er “the complete and total change
from moderate indulgence in ajcohol
to total abstinence has been altogether
for the good—the mental good, I may
say—of the race.” Such facts as
these show how complex and difficult
is the discussion of the whole sub
ject of alcohol and how necessary it
is that partisan exaggeration and elo
quence should be excluded from its
consideration.
Kipling’s Conversion.
It is said that Rudyard Kipling, the
great English literary genius, one time
believed in the inalienable right of
the individual to exercise self-control
and self-regulation on the liquor ques
tion, but was converted to prohibition
by witnessing the leading of two
young girls to ruin through drink,
after which he wrote as follows:
"Then, recanting previous opinions, I
became a prohibitionist. Better it is
that a man should go without his
beer in public places and content him
self with swearing at the narrow
mindedness of the majority; better it
is to poison the inside with very vile
temperance drinks and to buy lager
furtively at back doors than to bring
temptation to lips of young fools such as
the four I had seen. I understand now
why preachers rage against drink.
I have said there is no harm in it,
taken moderately; and yet my own
demand for beer helped directly to
send those two girls reeling down a
back street to — God alone knows
what end.”
No Marshal Needed.
One of the newspapers of Winters,
Cal., a temperance town, says in a re
cent issue: “In the event of the of
fice of the town marshal becoming
vacant by removal from town of the
present incumbent, the Express
voices the opinion of many tax-payers
by saying no new marshal should be
appointed. If any officer is needed,
give us a night watchman. The town
is so orderly now that the presence
of the constable is sufficient to pre
serve the peace in daytime—in fact,
there is absolutely nothing to do for
either officer. The town may as well
save at least $50 of the salary now
paid.” It is now three years since
Winters adopted the no-license ordi
nance.
Be Singular.
Are we growing too much alike?
Some one has asked this disturbing
question, and some one else—evi
dently in a panic—has been rushing
about “taking stock" of the appearance
of people in general. They may be
prejudiced when they record that we
have no higher ambition than to be
mistaken for our neighbors; still, it
cannot* be denied that few of us are
content to rest in a condition which
marks us as singular among the
many, even though it may be singu
larly beautiful, healthy, happy, or
wise.—Lady's Pictorial.
