NODut the tHectS WHICH enBueu from usln
| intoxicating beverages on these Islands asked al
and especially those who had lately become Chrii
tians to remain steadfast in the faith, which wa
the only safeguard against this great evil. II
replied briefly to the arguments used by the BUS
Convert" and other supporters of the Moderat
Drinking School, who, he said, by their argument
would seem to place the character of the beautifi
and pure wine used by the ancents equi
standard with the aboninable decoctions, and II
raodern thousand and one invented mixtures, sol
under the name of "wiue and spirits" by Il
rum-sellers and INDUCED in the present age |
the army of moderate drinkers from whose ranl
arc recruited the drunkards. Speaking Of Il
liquor which is sold In these Islands he mentions
| the fearful amount OF aduiteration which Ia pra
ticed, and how tho so-called "doctoring" proce
which the drink undergoes before shipment fro
other countries adds SO much TO the percentage
alcohol. Brief addresses were given by sever
gentlemen, one OF whom mentioned the fact til
the wine discovered among the ruins Of Pomp'
WAS found TO be unfermented and not to conta
alcohol. Tho exercises were interpreted wi
music, and mention might be made OF Mrs. Ha
