poisonous wormwood, which develops a
peculiar form of drunken insanity. can
not be found in the country. The result
has been a marked decrease in crime.
The Emperor of Germany took strong
measures to make the drinking OF In
toxicants unpopular in the army. The
result has been a marked increase both
in physical and mental efficiency.
The curse of the Russian peasant has
been vodka. a crude form OF brandy.
With 20 per cent illiteracy in the popula-

moved slowly. but since the war broke
out not only has the sale of vodka been
forbidden, but the sale of all intoxicat-
ing beverages.
1t is too soon yet to have any data on
the result of this reform, but 1t Is safe
to assume that the liberation of the
serfs was no greater advance In Russian
civilization than will be this relief from
vodka slavery.

There Is an extremely clever arrange
