Liquor Paper Fears
 Literary Decadence

London, April 2O-EIad it not been for jug of wine, the world would not have had Omar Khay- yam.
 This is the arguments of the Brewers Gazette, which takes up the cudgcls in favor of Sir Ar thur Quillcr Couch's contention that tcetutalism is not compatible with full manhood and good literature.
 since Persia took to sherbet as q national beverage, we have not mo- ticed a mushroom crop of Omar Khayyam's says the Nintner's pub lication. which declares that some of the teetotaler's, whom the drys have been lauding as examples of how fame could be achieved without were not famous. and some others were not teetotalers.
 The Brewers Gazette says the probable reason why Bernard Shaw does not take liquor is because most other people do. Abraham Lincoln has been cited as dry, but tue Brewers Gazette insists he always had wine on the White House table. It asserts that instead of Longfellow being dry. as has been claimed, he had liking for eXQui- site wines.
