The Experience OF n Prom nent Enslixl,
Life Insurance Concern.
IAN endeavor was recently made to
show that total abstainers do not live SO
long as those who consume alcohol in
moderation; also, strange to say, that
those who often drink to excess outlive
the teetotalers. Statements purporting
to come from the medical profession in
England were addiced in support The
whole story had suspicious appear
ance. The facts were evidently cooked,
but SO skillfully as to deceive unwary
people. All persons possessing common
sense are aware that an excessive con.
sumption of alcohol leads to i'll health
and high rate of mortality. But many
are not convinced that even what is
called moderate indulgence tends to
lessen the duration of life. The United
Kingdom Temperance and General
Provident Institution, London. En-
gland, has two classes of insurance.
one for total abstainers, and az
other for temperate people who are
not total abstainers. All insurance
officers carefully avoid insuring the
lives of drunkards, or of those whom
they suspect to be inclined to over-in.
diligence. That OF itself is sufficient 10
show, that the universal experience of
life Offices is that alcoholic excess means
= high rate OF mortality. The d.
rectors Of the before-men toned insti.
tuition at their last annual meeting re.
ported that for the total total a bsti.
nence section on the whole number of
life policies for every 100 claims esti-
mated to fail due by the actuary's
tables there had been only 50 deaths,
but that in the general section-that is
among those who drank in strict mod.
GRAFTON tho deaths amounted to Sc out
of the expected 100. Therefore, out of
the equal numbers of two lots of in.
surers-total abstainers and temper.
ate men-the abstainers showed IS per
cent better than the temperate drink.

follows with about 4, 600, 600, France with
only few less, while in both Italy and
