A Valuable Asset,
Not very long ago a mail-order
whisky house in Kentucky went out
of business, and having on its hands
a list of some fifty thousand consumers
conc¢eived the idea of selling the ssme
to the Keeley cure people at Dwight.
The proposition was made and backed
by the argument that each of their
customers was a prospective patient.
That was a frank and honest confes-
slon to make, but they made it,
though not until they hed gone out
of the business. And, very likely,
their statement Is true, No man who
dallies with the bottle does so with
the intention of becoming a drunkard,
but the fact that so many moderate
drinkers do end sa drunkards seems to

that every man imagines, before he
tries it, that be ** oan ariok it or leave

106 years, had shot several ‘spook

defenseless lamb the white wolf began
