In France intoxicating beverages have been known since time imme- morial. The Narrowing Phoenicians reached the southern coast about the year 11O0 B. C., and 1t is probable that they may have introduced the natives to wine Even before that, however, 1t is possible that the Gauls already knew about beer. as this is mentioned in the earliest accounts that we have.
 The most romantic episode of an- cient France that brings alcoholic drinks into actual history led to the founding of Marseilles. In the year coo E. C., Euxees, a Greek trader landed near the Rhone where d Ga1lic tribe held the territory. Mann, the Gallic chief, was a hospitable man and he took the strangers home with him to attend a wedding feast in honor of his daughter Gyptis.

later found that the people preferred their native beer and the Emperor Julian was so perturbed by this bar parity that he composed numerous epigrams in praise of wine and in abuse of beer.
 Later the Gauls took readily to wine as Roman influence was extended, and we hear less of beer and mead.
 Rheims, in the Champagne country, was one of the first towns to submit to the Romans and the people there drank wine freely soon after they submitted to Rome. They did not, how ever, raise the grapes themselves but bought their wine from traders.
 In the time of Domitian, French wines were very popular with Ger man epicures and the industry was a fourishing one. Domitian, however. complained that the French were making more wine than beer, and

nearly all of the vineyards were ce- stroyed. This did not result in pro- hibition, for the people went back to their beer.
 The Emperor Marcus Aurelius Pre- bus reversed Donitian's policy and set his soldiers at work planting vine yards through what is now France. In the year 300 A. D. it is said that there were thousands of acres there and that the Marne and the Moselle flowed through banks of vineyards. The rich wines tempted the Germans to invade France, and Gibbons says that one German band of Inauraders was surprised and slain near the Mo selle while they were in the very act O swallowing the wines they had seized.

At these feasts the maiden to be married came among the guests with a wine cup n her hand and presented 1t to the youth whom she wished to wed. Everyone expected that a fla vOred youth of the tribe would be honored by Gyptis, but to their sur prise she stopped before Euxenes and extRGdel the cup to him. Some of the tribal guests did not like this, but Mann, believing it a commandment from the gods, greeted Euxenes as his sOn-in-law and gave him as a dowry the whole bay where he had landed.
