Be not deceived; God .s not l'i'I0(,n'- ed; for whatsoever a man soweth, tt;h;it shenl he also reap.— Galatians

Tempcrance practice and legis. lation is founded on a threefold basis: first, the law of Christ. by which we are to look out for the welfare of the wcak and wayward: second, the law of self-development, by which we grow in proportion as we help othcrs towards a larger and beiter life: and third, the law of cause and effect, by which we reap what we saw, we ‘gather what we scatter. If we do good to our neighbor, we sha‘l be benefitted ourselves and be enriched and bet.- tered by so doing. A RACTAL POISON

As mot-hcrs of the race, women must think of the rights of the chil- dren of the future to a healthful and unblemished constitution. The verdict of science on Alchol as a exoecdingly diff- usible it can quickly be detected in every fluid and tissue of the body. Because Alcohol is very slowly oxi- dized it remains for some hours in the blood aft/=r even a single dose. Because Alcohol is harmful to the life of growing cells in plants. ani- mals ancl human beings it is a men- ace to the unborn babe when t/‘ken by the mother. Because the fu'l de- velopment of a child’s brain is in- timately connect-d with the thy- roid gland may be the causn of mental defeetiveness. It has been found that alcoholism of the moth- er before the birth of a child has been a cause of thyroid insuffic- iency in childhood

In the words of Dr. Watts Eden: "I do not think that it can be dis- puted that Alcohol drunk by the mother wi‘l pass into the c'rcu1a- tion of the child. that it will be present at any giv'n moment in approximately the same degree of concentration in both mother and child, and that the child will be subject to its influence for a comparatively long time owing to the tardinrss of its dlsappcarance from thee tissucs."

A big, burly man. with a hard bald head and a bristling black moustache, he looked like something between a practical industrialist and a rugged gamekeeper.
