The wom- en, on the other hand, drink great quen- Litios of champagne, Burgundy and lat- terly beer, and they are as a result prone to stoutness. In England men drink ale and beer, tend they are a thick necked, pudgy and heavy race as a rule. I had observed all this many times, and when I went to Germany, where 1: knew the consumption of beer was very great, I had prepared to find fat men in abund- ance. I was not disappointed.
