Alcohol and Length of Life.

To the Editor Of The Republican:
About seventy years ago a young man
IN England wished to insure his life.
He applied to a London Company for a
policy. When it was learned that he
did not drink liquor, he was told that he
must pay an extra premium, as it was
then believed that little whiskcy or
wine was healthfuI, and that man who
did not drink would no5 live as long as
one who did. The Young man did not
think the company was right, so he
formed a company Whicu insured only
persons who did rot drink. This was
the United Kingdom Temperance and
General Provident Irs tuition. For ten
years this company insured only persons
who did not drink Then it opened
new department which insured those
who drank a little. Even these were
carefully chosen as to health and the
amount they drank.
The company was in this way able to
watch Tor more than sixty years and
see which Of their policy holders died
the earlier those who drank or those
who did not drink. They found that
among those who drank there were
many more deaths in proportion than
among those who did not drink. Among
the policy holders in the prime of life,
that is, among those between forty and
fifty years of age, the proportionate
number of deaths among drinkers was
even greater than among those of all
ages. 1t was found that out of every
100 deaths expected among the drinkers,
SO deaths actually occurred, while among
those who did not drink, only 70 out of
every 100 expected deaths occurred.
Similar results have been obtained by
other British societies. A Canadian
company which recently established
department or insuring only those who
did not drink, found, by five years ex-
perience ending IN 1909, that the num-
Der Of deaths in the new department
was only d little over one half Of the
older department.
An interesting study was made in
1909 Of all the deaths Of men of sixty
years and over occurring in the one
month Of April. The results were what
were to be eXpeced from the experience
Of the insurance companies. Of the 175
deaths Of men over sixty years of age
information as to their drink habit was
obtained IN 152 cases: 10 did not drink;
70 were moderate drinkers; 4 were
heavy drinkers. The drinkers on the
average had reached the age of sixty
eight wears, but those who did not
drink passed the three score and ten
mark, reaching over u years, or four
years more than the drinkers. Figures
for the age of forty-fve and over would
probably have shown a larger difference
because of the heavier death rate in
drinkers between forty and sixty.
None of the heavy drinkers had reached
the age of eighty, but 10 who did not
drink and moderate drinkers had
passed it. c.. w. H.
