He was charming as he sat there

so many months. Finally, everything
merged into his present life. and the
beauty of what he said dazed her like
an enchanted sea. He was a soldi :,

fact that his hopes were about to be

From an economic viewpoint the

ton of those connected with the trade
in alcoholic drinks-and their hangers
on-the entire world of business and

and the battle (since drunkenness Is
self-confessed defeat) is being waged
against moderate drinking. 1t is with
