The people Of the United Kingdom Of
Great Britain and Ireland continue 70
sustain the reputation Of being very ro-
bust drinkers. They number al the
present time 39.i50.000, and the total
cost Of their wine. beer and alcoholic
liquors. divided by this sum. shows
an average expenditure Of sls,1s per
annum for every man, woman and child
in the realm. Contrary 70 the general
impression, the English drink more
than the Scotch, and the Irish Less than
either. The ratio OF the English ex-
penditure for drink Is 1870, the Scotch
sl4.70 and the Irish 1912 per head per
annum. These at least were the figures
Of 1895, which seems TO be considered
a banner year In drink annals-a cir
eumstance which inquirers Of the tenn
perance persuasion attribute to the oe-
curence Of the parliamentary elections.
The entire drink bill OF the kingdom
for last year reached the impressive
total of s712y070,000. OF this amount
s2o3,5o0y000 went for spirituous liquors
mostly whisky and gin; SOS 900 900 for
wines: s435y 900 900 for beer, ale and
porter, and 1880, 900 for cider and bey-
erages. Liberal as this expenditure
may seem, the general average Of liquor
consumption In England tends 10 de-
crease. In the ten years, 1910 the
consumption Of beverages Of the spirit.
nous class was 094i gallon per head OF
the population per annum; In the fol-
lowing ten years 1t rose 10 L190 gallons,
falling again during the ten years end
ing with 1880 to 0.sss gallon. So with
wines, the consumption for the first
period was 0,420, for the second 0.5l2,
and for the third 0.sss gallon per head
per annum. or malt liquors the aver
age annual consumption for the first
period was 27.35, for the second 31.55
and for the third 27.77 gallons per head.
The most potent influence In dimin-
ishing the consumption OF liquor in
England are scarcity Of work and low
wages.
