Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Prohibition Movement in Its Broader Bearings Upon Our Social, Commercial and Religious Liberties: Addresses and Writings
Of course, I am neither a minister nor an expert physician. But I belong to a family whose members for many generations have indulged in stimulants, and I do so myself for diverse reasons. Firstly, because I have always been accustomed to them; secondly, because I like them, and because they have wrought me no harm; and lastly, because I was taught by a Chris tian sect, whose standing among religious denomina tions is not inferior to that of the church to which the reverend gentleman himself belongs, that the moderate use of stimulants is sanctioned by the revealed scrip tures, and can injure no normally healthy being.
