HEALTH A:Nlb' :ALCOHOL.
TW THAT PROHIBITION hof the use of Alcohol in Ontario is in
force it might be of interest to discuss the relationof its
use to the health of the cgmmunity. What is the oN_-Uion of
thos: Qualified to know, upon this subject?
Perhaps as god an authority as any are th.e life insurance companies.
The men who manage these companies • are hard-headed business men.
Their business is to sell life insurance at so much per annum either for life
or for a given period :pf years. Insurance men obviously do not wan' to take
any greater ricks than, they-can.avbid. What is tha attitude of insurance
companies to th-e user of alcohol? r .
Recently the actuary of .the. New York Life Insurence Company ob-
tained the opinions of seven of the leading life companies upon the f..ilowing
five questions: ;
(1)_ ire total abstainers •considered favorable risks for insurance?
(2) The hazard on lives of men who .drink moderately each day but
''ho never take alcohol to excess?.
(3) Does a long-lived family history, a healthful occupation, or
other favorable features offset a fairly free use of alcohol daily?'
(4) What is the longevity of those who drink moderately each day, •
but who occasionally drank to excess several years ago?
(5) What is the expectance of persons%who have taken cure for alco-
holism several years ago and .have been total abs..ainers since th..t time?'
The replies indicate that abstainers from alcohol have from 10 to 30
per cent. lower mortality than ;non -abstainers: American ;statistics corro-
borate the .B itish'in this respect.
On the qua.tion of the life -expectancy of men who h ve taken the cure,
and'hay.e be.:r. total abstainers for":years,; it was found th:.t there is an
extra mortality of 70 per cent. Men who had cured themselves had an
extra 'mortality of 32 per cent. Thedsteady free users of alcohol h-.1, com-
pared with abstainers, a mortality, of •85 per cent.
The principal organic' diSesae v hiehi results from drinking al„ollol is
cirrhosis of:the liver. The 'rate from this tfisease among'driiikers •ts corned
pared 'with `abstainers was increased 500 Per cent. A modiirate drinker
who occasionally drank t;o'exeesa' ten or more years before inauriiig'would
be regarded as a hazardous risk, arid' would be charged an ex•.ra lay ernium.
The company would take ,into eonnideration the man's age and bis, family
life.•
In regard to the third gtaetntYonrthe'Nuw York Life actuary says "The
feeling exists: among medical men tla.atedwla i)e there is a markedly favor-
able effect on longevity-thrsiii i' a'' rst-.clase family history it Is not an,
:offset to a habit of three glories' ot4wh1skay ,a day, which is _likely to be
exceeded in the future in a gadd'pereentage`of trios."

In visiting an urban centre it' ils-alm,ost possible to judge of the ability
