Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strong Drink: The Curse and the Cure But it is in the second part that he addresses himself to the more serious purpose of his work. It is because the ma jority of the people are ignorant of the specific action of alco hol on the nerves, membranes, blood-vessels and vital organs, that so many indulge in its use. Under this head he gives the latest and most carefully-conducted experiments of physiolo gists and scientists, from which it has been clearly demonstrated that alcohol invariably acts as a poison when taken into the body, and that its habitual use always lays the foundation for disease, often of a fatal character. This chapter is a most im portant one, and should be read by every young man, and by every moderate drinker in the land. Its well-authenticated statement cannot fail to arrest the reader's attention, and deeply impress him with the dangers that always attend the use of alcoholic drinks. It is also shown how mental failure always keeps pace with the physical deteriorations which attend the regular drinking of alcoholic beverages; that no man can do his best, mentally or physically, while under their in uence, and that their continued use steadily lessens the intellectual vigor and blunts the moral faculties. In treating of the means of reformation and cure, the author shows what has been done and is now doing in Inebriate Asy lums and Reformatory Homes and also through what is known as Gospel Temperance Work - giving, in this connection, a brief history of the Woman's Crusade, of The \voman's National Christian Temperance Union, and the establishment of Reform Clubs, Temperance coffee-houses and Friendly Inns.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grappling With the Monster, or the Curse and the Cure of Strong Drink Our book treats of the curse and cure of drunkenness. How much better not to come under the terrible curse! How much better to run no risks where the malady is so disastrous, and the cure so difficult! To young men who are drifting easily into the dangerous drinking habits of society, we earnestly commend the chapters in which will be found the medical testimony against alcohol, and also the one on The Growth and Power of Appetite. They will see that it is impossible for a man to use alcoholic drinks regularly without laying the foundation for both physi cal and mental diseases, and, at the same time, lessening his power to make the best of himself in his life-work; while be yond this lies the awful risk of acquiring an appetite which may enslave, degrade and ruin him, body and soul, as it is de degrading and ruining its tens of thousands yearly.

Book excerpt: All this in a single year, and at a cost variously estimated at from six to sevenhundred millions of dollars! Or, a sum, as statistics tell us, nearly equal to the costof all the flour, cotton and woolen goods, boots and shoes, clothing, and books andnewspapers purchased by the people in the same period of time.If this were all the cost? If the people wasted no more than seven hundred millionsof dollars on these beverages every year, the question of their use would be onlyone of pecuniary loss or gain. But what farther, in connection with this subject, arewe told by statistics? Why, that, in consequence of using these beverages, we havesix hundred thousand drunkards; and that of these, sixty thousand die every year.That we have over three hundred murders and four hundred suicides. That overtwo hundred thousand children are left homeless and friendless. And that at leasteighty per cent. of all the crime and pauperism of the land arises from theconsumption of this enormous quantity of intoxicating drinks.In this single view, the question of intemperance assumes a most appalling aspect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timothy Shay Arthur (June 6, 1809 - March 6, 1885) - known as T. S. Arthur - was a popular 19th-century American author. He is famously known for his temperance novel Ten Nights in a Bar-Room and What I Saw There (1854), which helped demonize alcohol in the eyes of the American public. His stories, written with compassion and sensitivity, articulated and spread values and ideas that were associated with "respectable middle class" life in America. He also believed greatly in the transformative and restorative power of love as is shown in one of his stories, "An Angel in Disguise". He was also the author of dozens of stories for Godey's Lady's Book, the most popular American monthly magazine in the antebellum era, and he published and edited his own Arthur's Home Magazine, a periodical in the Godey's model, for many years.
