Advertising Space Costs Hooey. Good goods bring fair prices, poor articbs are good for whatever they can get. This is true of advertising as of everything else. As a rule low rates and large discounts are a sure indication of small circulation. Advertising space in publications of good circulation represents a very heavy outlay and cannot be offered at a nominal price without loss. Publishers, like other business men, do not do business, for nothing, neither are they in it for the pleasure it affords. Hence they they cannot afford to izive advertising space for less than cost, Low rates may he taken as a possitive proof of equally small and comparatively valueless circulation. The business man who has a certain amount of money to spend in advertising should bear this in mind. In order to spend wisely he needs choose weih It does not follow by any means that because he can get a space for less money in one direction that there is whera he can get the best advertising.

Famous Alienist Denies Jhat Liquor Causes Host of Insanrty

After listening to the ordinary "dry" harangue, the individual, unless he be of a questioning turn of mind, is quite likely to reach the conclusion that prohibition is a speedy and certain rnethod of emptying the nation's alms houses, prisons and insane asylums. "Dry" orators are want to ascribe at least ninety per cent of all social ilia to the sale of alcoholic beverages. On the other hand, those in position to know from personal experience, the conditions which cause crime, poverty and insanity, do not subscribe to the popular "dry" theories. These are the specialists and scientists who deal daily with crime and insanity and who are constantly and earnestly searching for the cause and cure for these social afflictions, i One of these scientists is Dr. Ralph Reed, a famous alienist and neurologist of Cincinnati. Dr. Reed probably has nothing but professional interest in the prohibition agitation. Constant and unrefuted assertions by the "dry" agitators have caused him, however, to warn his fellow-physicians of the falsity of the prohibition arguments. This warning he gave in a recent issue of the Lancet-Clinic, a medical journal. Dr. Reed's article, in part, follows: "In a ancing through the morning's paper I note the familiar statement of an advocate of prohibition. .It runs something like this: 'Go with me through the wards of the hospitals and insane asylums, and observe on every hand the ravages of alcohol I felt that I should have liked to have said to that individual: 'Very well, let us go; we will first visit the asylums I have a feeling that he would have plead a previous engagement. He has probably never seen the inside of an asylum and has no desire to see one. "'My experience with an intimate contact with and study of the cases admitted to a large insane asylum and the same contact and study of the cases admitted to a large sanitarium devoted in no small degree to the treatment of alcoholism itself, convinced me a number of years ago that alcohol, in so far as it may be said to bean essential cause of mental disease, is almost a negligible factor. Ivly private practice in lafer years has rather tended to strengthen this conclusion. "Suppose we take the four great groups of insanity that go to make up the great majority of our chronically insane. They are, first, dementia precox, which, as its name implies, is a disease attacking the young and usually resulting in a chronic and hopeless dementia. Its real cause is, as every alienist knows, absolutely unknown. Next we have what is called manic-depressive insanity, which includes many of the various manias and melancholias bo- common in asylum wards. This disease is curable but shows a tendency to return. Its cause is unknown, but heredity is supposed to "figure largely. Next we have paranoia, a chronic, incurable disease manifested by delusions of persecution, its cause being unknown. Next comes paresis, a disease the essential cause of which is known and it is not alcohol. "Over and above these large groups of mental disease there are a number of minor forms of insanity that account for a large number of our insane. Many 'of these are the results of exhaustion, great mental stress or some chronic physical disease producing certain auto-intoxications. Finally, we have a relatively small number that are the result of alcohol. "Back of prolonged arid excessive consumption of alcoholic liquors there must be a degree of mental unbalance or stress that might have resulted in some form of mortal disease even if the individual had never drunk a drop. It is these important facts that every alienist who has thought seriously on the question of drink must take into consideration, an J in fact they do. This is the reason we do not find our asylum su,rrintendents stumping the country for prohibition. They realize that there is very muchmore to the question of insanity and its control than the abolition of alcohol. "I have purposely ormtted all discussion of the hereditary influence of chronic alcoholism. The data are necessarily too inadequate. Ail statistics purporting to show hereditary influeence are inadequate, My results clearly show, however, that a serious fallacy may enter. Alcoholism per se, in my opinionis never inherited. To admit that it might be is to cast aside all the wealth of scientific evidence we possess tending to show that acquired characters can never be passed on from parent to child. What may be inherited, however, is the neurotic taint. Hence, the same neurotic or psychic instability winch made the father a chronic alcoholic may be revealed in the daughter as a susceptibility to hysteria, or in the son as an epilepsy. Is is strange that this has not been more generally recognized. If it had been we would not meet with absurd statements to the effect that alcoholism in the parent produces epilepsy or insanity in the offspring. It is not the alcoholism that is inherited but the neurotic strain that produced the alcoholism. "The case of the prohibitionists and their ideas with regard to drink and insanity may be paralleled as follows: Suppose I should be asked to give a reason for suicide, and in reply should state whereas a certain proportion of all those committing suicide hang themselves or shoot themselves, therefore an important cause of siucide was the unrestricted manufacture and sale of revolvers and rope, it would be instantly recognized that my reply was silly and absurd. Because, while it is clear that if no one had access to a revolver or a rope, no one could commit suicide by hanging or shooting, yet there is nothing to show that if the legislature should abolish the manufacture and sale of revolvers and rope suicrdes would by that fact be reduced. We all know that the cause of suicide lies deeper than that. With respect to alcohol the case is similar. To drink one's self crazy is one way of going crazy. Alcohol constitutes a secondary cause of a certain proportion of mental cases, but saying that and stopping there is to fail to approach one step nearer to the real and fundamental causes of insanity."
