HINTS FROM A NOTED SURGEON.
“Life is getting to be too complicated for the use of narcotics. The time was when the farmer could drive to town and get tanked up, and his friends would put him in the buggy and the sober horse would carry him home. Hut you cannot do that now with automobiles. We know that most of the automobile accidents are after dinners where alcohol has been served, and that not always in excess.” “A shoemaker by hand could drink and not have an accident, but a shoemaker to-day that drinks gets hurt by the machine.” “No one nowadays thinks drunkenness is well. What the public needs instruction about is the destructive effect of moderate indulgence.”
