Soutbwuk, sad his experience showed that
numbers of the middle classes, educated and able to
earn onenfoetable salaries, are continually being sunk
down from their stntittn by yielding to drink, and
forced into such labour markets as they can enter

these, besides glutting the labour market more than
it ought to be, they actually do harm to tho poor men
among whom they have been sunk, inciting them some-
times to strikes and contiunally helping in their deeper
degradation by drink. He has also come err its many
instsnoes, which he related, where the father and
mother had been able to tics drink moderately all
their lives, but their sons, through being accustomed
to it sod their parents believing in it, hai given way
