of his own fortiuiH, be that fortune tin* acquiring of
this world’s goods, or his own physical or moral health
and hiatus. He is ihe doctor who must learn by ex­
perience the things that are best for his physical well­
being, as well as lik moral one. If he finds out that
certain articles of food or drink interfere with his phys­
ical well being, it is his duty as a man to abstain from
them. Should he find that one, two or three glasses of
beer incapacitate his mind or body from performing
their proper functions in the rigiit manner, it is his du­
ty to stop at the point where they do so, and no request
or desire for further indulgence should be allowed to
sway him from what he knows to be right. That is
the dividing line between temperence and foolishness—
the line on which so many men split because they are
not the masters of their own destiny. It Is not the fault
of the drink or of their own companions, but simply
their own lack of personal control. Creatures of im­
pulse, lacking the best makings of manhood, they go
on their way through life succumbing to every tempta­
tion that confronts them, making of themselves drunk­
ards and then probably something worse, and when the
penalty for their sin confronts them, endeavor to gain
sympathy by laying the blame on an influence which
they assert they could not combat. A shame upon
them for such cowardice.
