The Revue Scientiiique publishes n pa
oer on alcohol and alcoholism which
presents statistics and conclusions OF a
startling nature. The author, M. Four
hiet 'o i"N' IS
against alcohol is wholly .nmerited.
as It does lar more good than harm.
To demonstrate this NJ. de Flaix fur
pishes tabular statements to show that
not only in the French departments,
but in other countries, the birth rate is
lower and the death rate is higher
wherever the consumption of alcohol
is small. 1t is further argued from
these figures that neither criminality
or suicide is in proportion to alcoholic
consumption. At the Seine ct Disc the
consumption of alcohol is just about
half what it is at the Seine Inferieure,
vet the suicide rate is double in the
former. In England, again, 0
alcohol is consumed than in
France. and yet in France. the writer
points out, the birth rate, the death
rate, the statistics Of crime and suicide
are less favorable than in England.
The comparisons for Italy, Spain, Swe-
den, Norway, Denmark, Russia, Aus
tria, and Germany show analogous re-
suits. NJ. de Flaix's conclusion is that
ii is the nations with the most vital
powers, the greatest wealth, and the
best morals who consume the most
alcohol. Alcohol he maintains is to be
an %alimentary element. whose con
sumption should depend directly upon
the requirements Of the climate. Mr..
Gladstone, among others, is cited by
Nj. de Flax in support of his thesis.
He says ''Mr. Gladstone takes every
day two glasses OF claret ut lunch and
two at dinner, with n glass of port
wine. His alcoholic consumption has
been estimated by his son at seven gal
Ions q year, which would be three and
a half times the average consumption
per head in England, and four and a
half times the ve,age in Europe.
