how to do It, The secret ia be said,
In putting good fresh water into q

other drinks before 1t Is spoiled. To
let 1t steam and simmer and evaporate
until the good water Is in the atmos-

"The crusade for personal So

made against greater odds now that
the law says, 'Have drink; have 4
few drinks; but damn you if you

specifically and in terms declared
the right of citizen to give away
liquor to his friends or to anybody,
