Liquor In Various Countries.

Very much has been written on the
use of alcohol in England, France, Ger
many and the United States, but for
the most part by persons more or less
biased in their opinions, Very often
such papers have been inaccurately
written by persons entirely ineXperl-
'enced in dealing with statistical mat
tehs and hence they have very little
value to those Interested in the real
facts. In the Fortnight'y Review for
January, 1902, a professional statisti-
clan with more than twenty years ex-
perience, gives short paper on this
subject, with a graphic representation
bf the condition of the drink question
in these Countries. He finds that there
has been a steady increase in drink
consumption per head of population
during each five-yearly period from
1886 up to the present date. Compar-
ing the period 1S96-1900 and the period
from 1886 to 1890 he finds that the per-
centage OF increase has been smaller In
Great Britain than in any of the other
three countries, while Germany and
France have had the largest relative
increase. In the United States, how
ever, the increase of 20 per cent in the
consumption of alcoholic liquors per
head of population is largely due to an
increase in beer drinking, while the
consumption per head of wine and
spirits has declined.
The current criminal statistics for
England record a material increase In
prosecutions for drunkenness during
recent years. somewhat proportional to
the increase in consumption of liquor.
\ ne French drink more spirits, more
wine and have larger total consump-
ton per head than any OF the otner
4hraa ao,,,,tr,ias Schooling notes as a
most striking fact that the consump-
tion of liquors in the United States is
very much lower than in any of the
other countries. The American total
per head is less than one-half of the
total consumption per head in any OF
the other three countries.
The superior sobriety of the Ameri-
can workman. as compared with Eng
lishmen has often been noticed, and
observation in social grades higher
than that of the artisan tends to show
that American superiority in this re-
spect is a general superiority not con-
fined to workmen only. Schooling be-
lieves that the developed alertness an !
prompt energy of the American may, II
is quite likely, be due in some part tc
this relative abstinence from alcoholic
drink.

Il is a most expensive temperance
work that the London county council
Is at present carrying out, but it is not
designated as such, nor is the general
public well aware of the fact. Yet
within the last three years the Lon
don county council has devoted more
than $1,25O,OOO to the practical work
of temperance.
1t is one Of the consequences of the
extensive improvements being made in
London at present When acquiring
property for the necessary widening OF
different streets. many public houses,
with licenses and good will, come into
the possession of the council. These
properties are very valuable, but the
council, instead of renewing them, for
premises in the neighborhood, is do
liberately giving them up, seeing, at
the same time, that no new licenses
for these localities are issued.
In this way the number of public
houses in London has been diminished
by 1903, which were valued at 81 1,372,-
$50.

what is its genesis-these things we

has reason to be proud of her family
of clever men. To the world of politics
she has given Mr. Joseph Chamberlain.
to art she gave the late Sir e. Burne-

touches to her fame by presenting the
world with the author of John In

which he had taken an active interest
