Even little Belgium, where beer
drinking is regarded as one of the ne
cessities of life, has begun to trend
strongly toward temperance. She has
begun by passing very stringent law
against absinthe, which is being well
enforced. After the sale, of absinthe
has been stopped, it will be found that
many of the evils attributed to it are
due to the excessive consumption of
beer, and the attack upon the bccl
stronghold will commence. To talk
about curtailing beer drinking now
would seem to the Belgians to be abso-
lutte nonsense, and they would not toll
crate it. This has beer the experience
of all true practical temperance work
ers. Later the Belgians will find, as
the Germans in Germany have found
that the greatest evil of all is unlimited
beer drinking, and they will be in a
frame of mind to consent to its actual
curtailment to a minimum.
