Alcoholic ncvernges
The head OF the commercial depart
mont Of the board Of trade OF the uplt.
cd kingdom has recently made a re-
port regarding the production and con-
sumption Of beer, wine and spirits 10
the leading European countries and ln
the United states, which contains many
interesting features. says the lndiann-
polls Journal. The hrst fact brought
out Is that there does not seem TO be
any marked Increase In any part o'
the world In the consumption Of wine
That such would be the case when vine
should become cheaper has been AZ
sumed by many. France continues &c
consume wine at the rate Of thirty gal'
Ions a head. and Italy and Spain fol-
low with some falling on, but In Ger
many, n wine-produclng country the
consumption Ia only about p gallon
head. In England the consumption OF
wine Ia not half n gallon a head ana ~
this country Il is even less than in
Great Britain. Beer has come 20 be
the general substitute for the heavier
alcoholic beverages. England drinks
thirty gallons n head, Belgium forty
two. which Is n higher average con-
sumption than that Of Germany, as
whole. though the average IN Bavaria
IL fifty gallons. which gives u the leao
In the consumption OF beer. France
consumes but hve gallons and the
United States only fifteen gallons pei
capita, or half as much as Great Brit
ain. The facts regarding the couaump-
tion OF spirits are interesting In con
noction with the consumption OF light
er liquors. Grea, Britain consumes o
gallon OF spirits n head. and Holland
and Belgium twice as much, principal
ly gin. In France, and particularly IN
the northern portion, the drinking OF
spirits is rapidly increasing. IN some
districts the daily consumption OF al
cohol abs0rbB quite half Of the average
wages Of the working population. In
the department OF the Nord there is o
saloon for every forty-six persons. In.
Guiding men. women and children. The
increase OF the consumption OF spirits
In Switzerland has been 10 great as 10
cause the authorities to become alarm
ed. The most notable fact which the
report brings out is that the consump-
tion Of alcoholic liquors Is increasing ln
all European countries at more rapid
rate than population. The United
/ States, however Is an exception. Tho
consumption with us has been deoreas-
ing for a number OF years OF wln(
and spirits there has been n perceptibS

ulation. the consumption Of beer has
