CENSUS OF INEBRIETY.-Dr. Nc
Kinley, of Chicago, presents some
statistics Of inebriety, Taking
the country at large, exclusive of
cities, the male drinking classes
have ten confirmed drunkards for
every thousand drinkers. In cities
the proportion is twelve to a
thousand. A city OF 100000
would have 2,400 drunkards, and
a State having a million people
would he entitled to 10000 chron.
ically thirsty souls. Out of 1000
women l42 drink alchohOl in
some form and about four women
in every Thousand are confirmed
inebriates. In any city where
there are 100000 women there
would be over 400 of them
habitual drunkards. Taking the
population of this country, out OF
every 300 men there are l22 who
never drink ardent spirits, 100
drink moderately, so who are ephe.
neral drinkers, 25 who have their
sprees, and 3 "goners." In 700
women 600 never taste alChoholis
liquor of any kind, 80 taste wine
occasionally, II sip a little alcho-
holic beverage enthusiastically,
SO cannot get on without their
beer or ale, Il are steady drinkers
of alcoholic, aud 3 rather unsteady
but large drinkers. There are
fewer women who drink than Of
men-Only one women in seven
and one man in three, or more
nearly, two men in Eve. But
among female drinkers there Is q
larger per centage Of confirmed
inebriates.
