Whisky and Temperance

The late Dr. Guthrie, of Scotland, was a strong temperance man. On one occasion he expressed his opinion of whisky in these words: "Whisky is good in its place. There is nothing like whisky in this world for preserving a man when he is dead. But it is one of the worst things in the world for preserving a man when he is living. If you want to keep a dead man put him in whisky; if you want to kill a living man, put whisky into him."
