FELLOW LABORERS,
WHEN we fwete most, we
thirst most, tad drink most
abundantly—you will all pon<unce
that liquor best, which m^kc ,ou
most riroag and healthy.
Then do not drink Flip— the bo

immediately flies off, and the heavy,
clammy dregs of the beer and fu2*r;
remain to clog the stomach, render
the laborer dull and weak, aqd often

Do not drink Toddy or Milk
punch, for the lam ! reason.

immediately drink large draughts ot
' water after it. For the feme region,
when a m^n is crack brained enough
to rhow a ire brand Into a magazine
of powder, he cannot do better, than
to throw water upon the burning
coals as faft as possible.
Drink Switchel—that it MoUffd
Y or Maple Sugar mixed with water.
Drift whey, or milk and wafer,
two thirds water,—Spruce or Imari
Beer.
w Drink Cyder, Not boiled—if you
would be merry, but Cyder and wa

and wife. The acid in cyder it the

diforcers.
Drink vinegar and w^ter for the
fame region.
Dri^k pure water—you have been

whose fat has beer, cooled, and who
have died hiddenly by drinking cold
water. Setthe pail io the fur, half an
hour before you use it; or rinse your
grouch three or four times with the
coldest water, and you may then
drink freely from the coldest fprir%
If the water is much colder than your
