Beer Drinking.—Dr. Rogers, examining physician of the New York Life Insurance Company, tells us that in his study of brewers he finds that "up to forty or thereabouts brewers seem to be about as good risks as pretty much anybody else. After forty the mortality rises very high, and I should sa, that at fifty-five or sixty years of age about three brewers may be expected to die where one average person dies."
