SCIENCE OF BEER-DRiNKING.

How the Germans, Who Drink Four Times
as Much Beer as Americans, Avoid Be.
coming a Nation of DruniGrds.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2s.-Consul Tan
ner of Chemnitz reports to the Secretary
Of State that the beer production Of Ger
many in 1885 was 1,100,000,000 gallons
enough to form lake more than one milo
square and six and one-half feet deep, OF
it would make running stream as large
as some OF our rivers. He says the con
sumption of intoxicants in Germany pei
head is four times as great as in the
United States, yet there are Thousand
hopeless drunkards in the United States
to ten in Germany.
The difference arises largely, he says,
if not entirely, from the manner OF drink
ing in vogue in the countries. 'This
science of drinking" he writes, Soon
sists simply in the tardiness of drinking.
All drinks are taken sip by sip, half OF
three quarters of an hour being con-
sumed for a glass of beer. This is so
simple that one is liable to ridicule for
laying stress upon it, and yet on
this point hinges, in my opln-
ion, a question of vast I'M
portance to Americans. BY this manner
of drinking the blood is aroused to
greater activity in so gradual manner
that there is no violent arrangement OF
the animal economy. By slow drinking,
the German accomplishes the object OF
drinking and gives his animal economy
chance to say, hold, enough" which
only slow drinking will do" Mr.. Tan
-ner says that since his arrival in Ger
many he has his "hrst glass OF water to
see drunk" usn n

nent of imperial favor to simple
happy thought that presented itself TO
him in the very nick OF time many,
many years ago. When the Empress
Augusta was Princess of Prussia she
undertook g railway journey in bitter
weather. and her toes got terribly cold
by the way; so, during one of the stop
pages, she sent Az attendant to get a
bottle filed with hot water. AS ill-luck
would have it, every drop of hot water
had that moment been used in making
coffee for the frozen travellers who were
thronging the refreshment room. Ihe
prospective displeasure OF the princess
flied the man in charge with despair.
But one Of the coffee-drlnkers were
equal to the emergency. and selling the
eoffee-pot he poured its boiling con-
tents into the bottle. The attendant
upon returning to the carriage related
the incident to the princess, who at
once demanded the name Of the quick
witted traveller. 1t was Cohn. The
princess never forgot him, and receives
