We can point with pride to the life

indirect in its effects upon life and
character. Thousands of men who he
gan life under favorable auspices have

led them to an untimely end. SAYS an

sablished the following facts:
Between the ages of fifteen and
twenty where ten total ~abstainers die.
eighteen moderate drinkers die. Be
tween the ages Of twenty and thirty
en- of the former and t~hirty-one Of
he latter. Between thirty and forty
Years, forty moderate drinkers to ten
abstainers die.
That is: A total abstainer twenty
Fears old has a fair chance of living
sorty-four years longer; a moderate
thinker has a chance of living only
nfteen and one-half years longer.
At thirty years a total abstainer
has a chance of living thirty-six and
one-half years longer; a moderate
1rinker at the same age only thirteen
and one-half years longer.
At forty a total abstainer has a
chance of living twenty-eight years
more. and a moderate drinker only
eleven and two-thirds.
