Herr Pohl, president of the German

just published the results of his investi-

possible for these animals to attain.
Cats, he says, are like human beings

better regulated their life is the longer
they are likely to live. AS proof he

Animals and Alcohol.

Many animals yield to the seduction
of rum drinking, especially elephants,
horses, cows and swine. Poultry, espe-
cially turkeys, will absorb the tempting
drink till they tumble over in leaden
sleep, lying around as if dead and ut
terly ignoring their accustomed roost.
On awakening they stagger for few
moments and soon recover, but it is
hours before they renew their cheerful
cackling.

Another crying need is for law. Ev-
