Drink More Beer
Stockholm, Nov. 1.
The Swedes are being urged to shun the Viking spirit and drink more beer.

That is why the easier drinking laws recently passed by Parliament aim at encouraging beer at the expense of spirits.
The problem facing the beer Denmark, Elire, Gemany and edvocates Wor twofold. Real, Holland.
