Dr. John Dill Robertson, Chicagot health commlselooer, has this to say about alcohol: "In the city of Chicago, whore tho death rate is approximately 100 a day. It is safe to say that at least 25 per cent of these deaths are caused direct ly or Indirectly by alcohol. "Sir William Osier, lata of Johni Hopkins, professor of medicine at Ox ford, McGIll and Pennsylvania unt vorsltles and one of the world's great est physicians, says of alcobal that It produces acute inflammation of the stomach, hemorrhage of the pancreas, heart diaoase, cancer of the stomach, Urlgbt'a disease, fatty liver, hardened liver, inflammation of the nerves, epi lepsy, hardening of the arteries and a multitude of other afflictions of the body. "Those are known medical tacts. Alcohol lu truly a poison. It is not only tho causative factor la the dii rnncs and afflictions I have mentioned above, but It Invades the mental man and produces insanity. "Alcoholic pneumonia is known to r ery practitioner. In tha paBt twen ty years in Chicago tho death rate from pneumonia was Jtibt twice what It was the precedins twenty years. Alcohol is without doubt to blame for a part of these deaths, for in alcubolla pneumonia the death rate la tre mendous. "No one can ectlmato the larga num ber of people whose death certificates are marked by a diagnosis which seems to have no connection with al cohol. Still, if the truth were known It wns the prcdlepocing factor In tt death of them. "When I say that 25 per ent of tho death rate Is directly or Indlroctly due to alcohol. I do not exaggerate. Twen ty per cent of tho mortality among ln fnnts Is caused by their having alco holic parents. Alcoholic poverty and I believe this phrase needs no axpla nation U one of the groat Indirect causes." CIRCUS MAN'S VIEW. The plans for booklns the big cir cuses hereafter is to play only dry towns, with the exception of the larga cities. The manager of the Hsgea-beck-Wallace circus says, as reported by William Allen White in the Empo ria (Knn.l Cazotte: "We do a botter business In a dry town than In a wet one. We noticed the difference fa Missouri; always the day's receipts were better In a town that had gone dry undor local option than in a town where saloons were open. And busi ness is better In Kansas than it was la Missouri. "I have seen this who! game V9 and down and backward and across, and I want to toll you that all this talk about a town needing saloons or gam bling houses to stimulate business la the purest bunk." "Here la an amusement mrn's point of Tlew on booze," comments itr. Whlto. "Once again the verdict la thumbs down for John Barleycorn. Poor old John! He can't mix with re ligion or politics or business. If ha can't mix with tho amusementa where does ho get In! And the answer Is (hat national prohibition is Just around tho cornor." SWEEPING VICT0RIE3. When in March the province ct Manitoba, Canada, voted dry tby a majority of more than two to one), it added 251.832 square miles to the prohibition torrltory of North Amer ica. The dominion of Canada la rap Idly going dry. Alberta. Prince Ed ward Island, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia (with the exception or Halifax) have outlawed the liquor traffic; Sas katchewan has abolished all bar and :lub licenses until after the war, the residue of the traffic being tinder con trol of the provincial government: New Brunswick has prohibition la ten out of fifteen counties; about twa thirds of tho territory of Quebee la dry; in Ontario and In British Coluav bla a plebiscite will be takea this year. BARTENDER'S FUTURE. "There arc about 100,000 bartwidrra In the United States. What will be come of them when the saloon la abolished T What Is It that make a successful bartender? It Is bis ability aa a salesman, and a man who is a pood bartender will mako a good clerk or salesman In practically any other kind of business. Furthermore, it requires many more people to sell $200,000,000 worth of bread and cloth ing, for example, than it does to sell liquor of the same value. And It 1 more than likely that at least as many, salaried employees, such as traveling salesmen, bookkeepers and stenog raphers, will be employed. Chariot Stelxle. TO REAL ESTATE MEN. A sucgention made by Duncan C. Mllner In Chicago Dally News is well worth passing on. "Real estate men," ho says "who lay out new additions to the city could do much for the fu ture well-doing of those who buy their lots by making provisions In tha deeds against . the introduction of saloons. This plan has been often carried out to the grent gain of th owner of the land. People who buy lots on which to build their homes gen erally profor a saloonluaa nolghbor hood. DRUNKARD UNKNOWN. A woman physician grown to ma turity In the state of Kansas recently remarked: "I never saw a drunken ' person whoro I was brought up. Thora were no saloons. It was not good form to drink.
