Wllfakey Drinking. Take any equal number of intern- ate and temperate persons from liftecn to twenty years of ago, while eighteen of the intemperate die, only ton die who are temperate; hut bo* . tweon the ages of twenty and thirty, live Intemporato persons die to only one temperate ; between thirty and forty the proportion is four to one. Hut look at it in another light. If a man is temperate up to twenty hirtOlmuecH for life is forty-two years, that is, he is likely to live until he is forty-two years old; if intemperate, lie will most probably die at thirty- five; thus tlioso who drink liquor freely while young, scarcely live out half their days, as a rule; living longer the less they ‘‘indulge.” Then there is tile cost of liquor- drinking. Mr. Ruffner, the very able and industrious Superintendent of Public Instruction in Virginia, says that the retail liquor stores in that State soli ovor eleven millions of dollars worth in a year, which is just about equal to the whole amount of wlioat raised on its soil; and if you tukc into account what is sold in the shape of “bitters,” whioli is really only liquor disguised, but more costly, aj million or two, or more, is added to the unuyint, to say nothing of the loss of time while under the iniluence of liquor, and the expense to the State of prosecut ing for crimes committed by the in- temperato; and in addition the cur ing for individuals and families im poverished directly by tho intern pur- ato Imlnts of some members of tho family; and then there is the morti fication and heurt-ugony of disgraced wivos and sons and daughters. And our representative men in tho halls of legislature, m almost every State, and in England, too, will give a man the privilege of selling liquor to any one who can pay the money, for ten or fifteen dollars a year, and this, too, in tho very dawn of tho twenti eth century of Christian civilization. —Hull'* Journal of Health.
