Why Men Drink.

(Lynchburg Advance)
The bachelor. Il appears. has been
slandered. He Is not distinctively
bibulous creature. A bulletin issued
by the New York health board de-
clares that, after careful investiga-
ton, the board has been driven to
the conclusion that married men drink
more than single men.
Why this should be so the bulletin
makes no attempt to explain. A bar
room philosopher, however. is quoted
as suggesting that 1t Isn't necessarily
because marriage drives men to drink.
It's because when q married man
drops into saloon for q bracer, he
doesn't drink 1t and depart In a mat
ter-of-fact business-like way, as a
single man does-he fingers ana keeps
on drinking because he's afraid to
go home.
The board upsets another ancient
tradition regarding liquor consump-
ton. 1t isn't the men who have leis-
ure and plenty of cash in their peck
cts who drink most says the bulletin.
Mon who work long hours spend more
time In saloons than men who have
shorter hours, and as wRges increase
the expenditure for liquor declines

BREWERS REFORM
SALOON BUSINESS ?
az CHARLES sJTIzIE.


Pure beer and clean business" Is
to be the slogan of famous brewing
concern in St Louis. with reference to
the management of saloons.
An attempt la to be made TO have all
brews join In this movement for
tho publication or the saloon business.
But there are difficulties in the way,
the st. Louis brewery men declare.
They are right They are more near
ly right than they know Not only
win there be difficulties in the way
40 far as other brewers are concerned,
but In tho movement OF this kind one
must consider the thousands OF saloon
Keepers whose chief profit comes to
them because of the 1isroputa BILE
character of their business. These are
not likely to Join the brewers In their
crusade against unolean saloons
Undoubtedly there are many saloon
keepers who would rather run decent
saloons than indecent ones. But the
matter is beyond their control. They
cannot choose their patrons. II they
tried to do so, they would soon have
no business at all.
There are certain glaring evils
which may be unlimited by heroic ef-
forts. but the worst features OF the
American saloon are not those which
hit one in the face and which are only
too obvious~-the worst features Of the
saloon are the insidfous. scrpentiue tn
fiuences which cannot be readily
"scotched" and destroyed.

brihing politicians.
The influence OF tho saloon upon
social life Is bad-its always bad,
whom one counts up all the items. no
matter how much the saloon may
serve in some minor details.
It's the very nature of the saloon TO
cast shadow over society. How can
the brewers. however good their In
tentions may be, meet this situation?
Plainly, they do not intend to. They
know that they could not II they
would.
There's only one way to cure the
evils OF the saloon business, and that
