Lager Beer.
BY JOSH BILLINGS.

I hav finally cum tew the conclu-
sion that lager beer as beverage
is not Intoxicating. -
l hav bin told so by a german
who seq be he'd drunk it awl mite
: long, just to try the experiment,
and was oblighed TT go home en-.
tirely sober in the morning. /
hav seen this same man drink,
sixteen glasses, and if he was
drunk he was drunk in german
and nobody could understand it.:
It is proper enuff to state that this
german kept a lager beer saloon,
and could hav no object in stating
what was not strictly thus.
I believe him tew the full extent
oy my ability. never drank bus
three glasses ov lager beer in mi
life, and that made mi he'd ontwist
as tho it was hung on the end ov
a string, but was told that it was
owing to mi bile being out ov place
and guess that it was so, fori
never billed over wuss than i did
when got hum that mite. Ny
wife thot that was going tew die.
and twas afriad that shouhn +
for it did seem as tho every thing
had ever eaten i'm mi life was
cummin to tho surface, and do
really believe that ifn wife hadn't
pulled off mi boots jest as she did,
they wod hav cum thunderin aP
too. ....r
O! how sick wasl IA years ago
and can taste it now: - -.
I never had so much experience
in so short a time. - ~. -
Ifanny man shud tell me that.
lager beer was not Intoxicating, /
shud have believe him; but if he
shud tell me that wasn't drunk
that mite, but that mi std1muck
was cut ov order; shud ask him
tew state over a few words, jest
how a man felt an acted when he
was we'll set up: ...
If was drunk that mite i had
sum ov the most natural simptuns
that man ever bad, and kept (
sober: 49,, -. -
In the first place it was about
80 rods from where i drank the Ia:
ger beer to mi house , and was
over 2 hours on the road, and q
hold bustid thru each one oY mi
pantheon neez, and didn't have
any hat, and tried to open the
door by the bellpull, and hichupped
awfully, and saw everything in
the room trying to get on the
backside ov me; and in Setting
down in chair didn't wait long
enuff for it to git exactly under
me when it was goin round; and
sot down little too soon and miss
sed the chair about 12 inches; and
couldn't get up soon enuff to take
the next one that COME alongi
and that aint awl; mi wife sed
waz az drunk az a beest, and az /
sed before, i began to spin up
things freely -.
Iflager beer is not Intoxicating,
it used roe most almighty meani
that i know.
Still, hardly think lager beer
il intoxicating, for hav BEN told :
so; ard i am probably the only
man living who ever drank emmy
when his life was not plumb, p
don't want to say anything "
agin harmless temperance bev-:
ridge, but if ever drink and more,
it will be with my hands tied be-
hind me, and mouth pried opeff:
don't think lager beer il intox-
icating, but if remember right, i
think it tastes to me like a glass
of soapsuds, that a pickle had bin
put tew soak in: - ''~,'. .>.-.@n (
