POTENT LIQUOR is SAKE.
>Lafcadio Hearn's Testimony as to
Strength of Japanese Wine.

There is no liquor in the world upon
which a man becomes SO quickly in
toxicated as Japanese sake (rice
wine), and yet none of which the eff
fects last SO short time The in
toxication is pleasant as the effect of
opium or hasheesh 1t is soft, pleas
ant, luminous eXhilaration, everything
becoming brighter, happier, lighter;
then you get very sleepy.
AT japanese dinners it is the rule to
become slightly eXhilarated, but not to
drink enough to talk thickly or walk
crooked. The ability to drink at ban
quets requires practice-long practice.
There are banquets of many kinds,
and the man who is invited to one at
which extensive drinking may be ex-
pected is careful to start in upon an
empty or almost empty stomach BY
not eating one can drink a good deal
The cups are very small and of many
curious shapes. One may be expected
to empty so. A quart of sake is good
deal; two quarts reqIre iron nerves
to stand. But among the Japanese
there are wonderful drinkers. At a
military officers banquet a captain
offered me tumbler holding a good
pint of sake. l almost tainted at the
sight of it, for it was only the first
But friend said to me: Only drink
little and pass it back" which / did
Stronger heads emptied cup after cup
like water.-Letters of Lafcadio
Hearn.
