Drinking and Smoking

According to the report of the commissioner of internal revenue, the tax returns show that there were 450,000 more gallons of whisky and 320,000 more barrels of beer consumed in the third quarter of this year than during the same quarter of 1911; and cigaret consumption rose by a billion to a total of 3,800,000,000. And all this increased addiction has occurred in spite of a prohibition sentiment.
