Waiting for Dr. Block when he came

on Saturday afternoon to the white

house on Gray Street. Alico Anne

Hannaford, bending over a paper

on which she was making mysfer-

lcus marks, did not hear tho doctor's footsteps until ha was close beside her.

“What's all the drawing, Alice

Anne?"

"A room for Geoff's house," was

, the sober reply. "I don't know

whether it is lo be the dining-room

or the sitting-room, so I don‘: know whether to make it long or square."

“What in the difference?" smiled

the doctor, sticking his thermome-

tel‘ before putting is under Geoff's tongue.

“Why; dining-rooms should be

luusssr. I think, so the table could be pulled out as long as one liked when company comes. He'll want

‘to have company in his house,

, won't he?"

' “Of course. Plenty of company, of the fight kind. So perhaps the din- irig-room ils you cull ib-or the sto- muCh- as I om going to call it-liod better be longer than the other

‘rooms. Sinoe it is set on a, good foundation, as we discovered lasl; Saturday, ii has n good start and should be icndy for the things that will go in to furnish it."

"But one couldn't. furnish s sto- mach, Dr. Black." Alice Anne‘; 100i; of surprise turned to one of merri. merit in which the others joined. "I thought dining-rooms had table and chairs and o. chins cabinet, perhaps."

"Nothing on the table?" the doctor.

"Oh yes. after we get it sec."

"Then let us pretend it is all set and ready for the food-"

“And the drink. 100." reminded Joan. "If there's n, tabla there will be a IE5. pot or a coffee pot. and a cream pitcher and a milk jug and—"

"Let's leave the tea pot and the cofle pot for a while-for five years or more, perhaps-and pick up the milk jug."

“But it’; only o. pretend house, Doctor," giggled Alice Anne. "We

“Then we'll pretend to pick it up, if you like, but ii; Is more man a pretend house that Geoff is bu‘ld- ing just now. The only-time hc has to build it is now, while he is young. so it's milk instead of res or coffee we shall put in his gloss. And we'll expect you to drink plenty of it, too, young man." he said, turning to the boy on the bed. "Milk is a food as well as a drink, remember, so plenty of it should always be found in the din- ing-room of the house you are building."

"I think Alice Anne is building it mostly." laughed Geoff.

"No, only helping," said Alice Anne seriously. "But/there must be solid foods also, things to chew hard on." _

“Well, Geoff's teeth look quite good," said the doctor, but he will need to care for them particularly if he wants them to be of real use in this dining-room we are talking about. They'll need to be washed thoroughly every morning. to brusn away all the particles of food and all the film that has gathered, and they will have to be very emefully watched for chips and scrsoches." "Chips and scraichesDr. Black?" laughed Joan, "Ihot sound-s just like Aunt Margaret talking of her grandmother's dishes, the ones she is l0 proud of. She won't. ie’. the maid wash them for fear of getting chips and scratches on them If they go she'll never be able to get another set like them, she says, so

"l"! Imwn men-dull grown men-should not lib bcor or wine. A growing boy shot-don't oven think of’ them. Once they gel. into this dining-room of n noun than is no toiling what harm they do. We tcikwdcf i-lmtlut. www.m- mombcr. It was bcoaun Ibo truck drlvlr let them in that Geoff in whcro ho is now. 5o we'll keep bee: and wlnc and all alcohol right cui- side. Once it gets into the stomach it finds its way to other spots in tho house where it does a great real of harm. I don't suppose any one of you will serve poison at your table when you have a home of your own."

"why nc, Doctor. No onc would do that."

"A good many people do, Phil. A slow poison, perhaps, but is poison all the some. and with more chance of getting in its evil work lust. be- cause it is so slow and one doesn't notice it at. first. Alcohol poisons the body, makes it slow and stupid and finally paralyses it, just lihl any other poison. So if Geoff wants to have a stomach that will last. him all his life, a. heart that. won't fail him, and other organs that, when properly treated. make and keep him strong and well, he must see to it that. all poison is kept strictly outside."

"I drew some doors and windows in my dining-room,—I meanGeoffs dining-room," remarked Alice Anne looking again at. her paper. "I guess I really didn't need them if the- the room is Inside where one can't look out anyway."

"I think we'll need the door, Alice Anne, or how could the things that.

she just has to be careful."

“And Geoff will just have to be careful, Loo, of tho finc sot of teeth he has, for they will have to be used for making everything ready to pass on to the table and he'll never get a set qwlc like thcm again."

“l-Ie won't need them for milk, anyway," reminded Bill. "Or for- you said he shouldn't have to; or coffee, Dr. Black. When can h: hay; other drinkl, b0" and wine

are to furnish the room be brought in? Very careless of u; not to have thought of that."

“I did think of it, or I wouldn't have put the doors in, but I still can’; see-"

"I can," laughed Joan. "The door is the mouth. isn't it, Dr. Black? ‘That's how the things get. inside the stomach-I mean the dinins- room of Geoff's house."

“Of course the teeth can begin working on chem at once and make them ready to go right in, where they they are treated again by the gastric juices, as we call them, a0 that the food may strengthen the body-be built into the house, as we mlghl’. say, to make ii. firm and strong and tall."

“I'm beginning to enjoy building Geoff's house." said Joan. "It's fun imagining all the things that can go in through the door and decid- ing which of them need most chew- ing by the teeth."

“How about imagining something about your own building, Joan? You don't all need to be ishinkinl of mine all the time, even if I do have to iic hero awhile. When I'm up again I'll know a. lot. more about —about the house I'm building than I do now, for I'll have lots of time to think about if. while I iic hero. and I know now what. it means to break one of the bones- one cf the important parts of my house."

"And Alice Anne's drawings which wo laughed st at first, have been oi real use in reminding us about just. how that. very important part. of our human house. the stomach. should be used and cared. for. We won't. laugh any more, Alice Anne."

"I won't mind," replied Alice Anne airily. "If Geoff doesn't like it for his house. I'll use it for my own, for I'm going to be careful about the house I'm building for myself, anyway."

alcohol does to the brain. It numbs and stupiiies it. The extent. to which the brain is numbed and paralysed depends upon t-ho amount that is drunk and that eventually reached the brain. Ii may be so little that. if you were talking to the drinker you would not. realize that his brain was slightly numbed and that he was not quite as bright an usual. On the other hand the amount might. be so great as to numb his brain to the extent that the drinker could not talk properly walk straight or indeed perform my Ordinary not in n proper manner. Since eyesight lo r. func- tion that is so completely under tho control of the brain its para- lysntion through alcohol causes some peculiar results. We shall outline some cf them.

l. Blind or Double Vision

Tho numbing c! tho non! con- tm of tho brain controlling the muscles of the eyo makes it diffi- cult for s person to focus hi: ayes. This causes his vision to be blurred. In addition to this tho muwes that make the iwo eyes work to- gether on also injured. Tho result isthartlm eyeldonoi. workto- gether and the drinker sometimes sees double. This is serious and sometimes cause: accidents. If the

cor on the highway this danger is multiplied many times, because in addition to the effect upon his eyes there is also a serious effect unon his entire nervous system. finalizing that he does not. see clearly he puts forth s tremendous effort ic clear his vision. This requires great con- centration. While he is co irat- ed on this task, danger may acme quickly from the side and he is not able to guard against it.

2. Narrowed or Tunnel Vision.

Even though you may be lookins at some particular thing. you cr-c also other‘ th‘ngs for some distance on either side of the object or which you are looking. When inc brain is numbed by alcohol the

blood reaches the brain. Alcohol coming in contact with tho brain acts as o narcotic. A

eye does not sec u for to eimer side. The result In that the Dill-h

of vision is narrowed. A man driv- ,

person happens to be driving his,

side cf the road or to be unnwnre of another car coming out from a side road. Most of our highways are carefully marked with signs Bad turns, main highways, steep hills, all places 0f danger are care- fully marked so that the driver moi’ “e warned in time to take care lest he endanger his life or the lives of others. These important safety signs cannot. be seen by the driver with tunnel vision.

S. Alcohol Shortens the Range of Sight

Under the influence of alcohol a man is unobloio sec as for ahead as when he is normal. Ho is af- fected slightly from the first drink and each drink after that increases tho effect. The high rah cf speed at which motor traffic moves today requimthnwc booblotoscca long dictum ohoad. Th0 faster a car in mulling tho farther it will go before coming to l dead ItOp. You may any, "I don't drive fut anyway." The fact remains that other; do drivc fut, and when they arc coming toward you it in better that you sec them u noon u possible in order to meet any omcr- gency thsi. may arise. Dr. O. O. Weeks, who i: an authority on the alcohol problem, maids this state- ment, "It. was fcund in rho U.S.A. that over twenty-one thousand adults had contracted fields of vision. (This means that they are short-sighted and do not see as for ahead.) Such persons are dangerous on the road." If these peoplc are dangerous on the road why cream more dangerous people through drink? Also think how much more dangerous the short-sighted will become when they drink.

4. Colour-Blindness.

Borne people no colour-blind. Thai. is. they are unable to fell one colour from another. In some cases they tire blind only to certain colours. There are more colour- blind men than colour-bind women Out. of a group of M0 men eight are likely to be colour-blind while out of n group fo 200 women only one is likely to be OOIOUP-blliid. In

traffic is cmiirohed by -.~......;~

lights. Colour-blindness '11. . l5 serious effects than natural colour cnusfd by alcohol will have more blindness. When a man is conmr- blind all the Lme, he has nliusicii himself l0 this condition. H»: may be able to ieii p, red light from a green one by the difference in brightness or its position. The man who is temporarily colour-blind from the effect. of alcohol has not learned to do this and he is liable to make a mistake that will cause an acccident.

l. Judgment of Distance.

When driving a car you ore call-

eci upon to judge distances nccur- '

ntely and carefully. You have to

know when to start turning i0 pass '

o cor cr go around s corner. If you fail to judge these distances cor- rectly, or st least with a good "nzu - gin of safety, you may have an oc- cident. when alcohol numbs the brain it pamlyses certain ncrvu centres that control judgment and you an less able to mokc quick Jfldtlmlita of distances.

Effect Unknown Tc Driver

The mun who in under the in- fluencc of liauor does not r-aiize that. his eyesight is affected in this way. In fact he frequently believes that he is performing much better from the effect of yhe drink. Lord D'Abemon. of the British Medical Research Council. snvs ‘Alcohol gives the drinker s false impres- sion of having done his work with unusual speed and success. whereas impartial examination shows that both accuracy and regularity are not. up to the standard." The drink- er tends to become well satisfied with himself and he is lulled um a sense of false security that proves his undoing.

The question may come up. "How much does a man have ‘o drink to produce these effecaa?" The answer is that. he is affected from the first drink. Each succeed- ing drink increases the first effect. The effect of i-he flrsidrlnk may be
