BECOME WOMEN sentiment still PLA YS BIG PART IN CHRISTMAS GIVING HOPELESS Can Never Be Cured, Worker As serts—Two Whiskies Day Dan ger to Men, Says Farwell. Most men can take one drink and then let it alone. Women who get a taste for alcoholic drinks forget their womanhood. It is a dangerous thing for a woman to drink. She lacks self- control. From statement hg Mr* Esther Falkenslein. L It is absolutely dangerous for a man to take one drink of alcoholic liquor. It is doubly dangerous for a woman. One drink is rank poison and no man should take chances. From statement lift Arthur Bun age Farwell. CHICAGO, Dec. 10. mentf* were made b\ w tman who for yean These .vtate- a man and a| have studied alcoholic conditions in Chicago. They t ore prompted by a finding of scien tists at .» meeting of the American Society for tlio Study of Alcohol and ) Other Narcotics In Philadelphia.; There it was said that two drinks of I whisky a day is the absolute limit of | any man. The alcohol finds a place m the j nerv«4 centers and oxidation sets in, the experts say *The general effect is ; in hurry the degenerating process akin to old age. It was found that where about 73 per cent of alcoholic : cases among men can he cured, wom en more especial!> society worntsn ( who become alcoholics, are beyond j The pale of hope. Men Can Control Their Tastes * 1 will not say that a man should j never drink alcohol!* s." said Mrs. ; Falkensteln. who heads a big settle ment on the Northwest Side. “but. of course, it is dangerous. Most men, I believe, can take a drink a day, j)i perhaps two. and never fall any low er. Others can not without stum bling. “Men are far more able to contro, themselves in this respect than wom en. I do not like to see women drink ing. because I know when they get a taste for anything they forget their womanhood and lose all self-control. It is a dangerous thing for a woman to drink." .Mr. Farwell is at the head of the Chicago Law and Order League. For 40 years he has been a foe of the liquor traffic. In 1873 I signed a pledge," said Mr. Farwell, “immediately thereafter ] started a study of alcoholics. In 4a > cars of watching the liquor traffic I find that it is absolutely dangerous, almost suicidal, for any man to take even one drink a day or week. Chances of Life Weaken. Why any man or any woman should wish to put alcohol In his or her system is beyond me. it is poison. We have a difficult time under the best of conditions to stand the physi cal strain of battle with life. Our chances arc weakened ami we are put on the defensive when we begin poisoning ourselves with liquor. Perhaps scientifically it is known that the human body can absorb a < ertain amount of alcohol in a cer tain length of time, hut that has noth ing to do with the matter, as l see it. 'When the system becomes used to taking care of even a small amount of alcohol, the mind, in most cases, is not strong enough to stop there and the habit grows until we find Just one snore human wreck.” New Treatment for Croup and Colds Relieve* by Inhalation and Absorp tion.
