Will il keep the cold out ? Experiments have been

those who drink how fat they are! True they are
stout, but it is wrong kind of fat fat that will
break down under any great pressure. 1t is fatty
degeneration, not real fat.

that animals cannot lift so much under alcohol as
they can before they have used it. It makes the

that a man feels under the influence of glass is
