The Eight Year Old Kind is Made Be tween Sunrise and Sunset. Some interesting facts were brought out iu the congressional pure food debate, regarding the making of whiskey. Doped whis key, according to Representative Richardson of Alabama, runs as high as 105,000,000 gallons a year in the country's total output, leav ing 2,000,000 for the real article. Eight-year-old whiskey is made between sunrise aud sunset, at which rate it would take less than forty-eight hours to produce a twenty-year-old brand. Mr. Rich ardson's statistics were power fully illustrated by Mr. Shirley, who comes from the state where, according to tradition, "there is no bad whiskey." The gentlemau Irom Kentucky took a quart of Alcohol, 100 proof, added a little coloring matter and some essence of bourbon to the white liquid, and then defied "any connoisseur in the house" to tell the real from the imitation article. "This hellish mixture," siid Mr. Shirley, with some feeling, "will eat the intestines out of a coyote. It will make a howling dervish out ot an anchorite. It will make a rabbit spit In a bull-dog's face." mam THE SUREST CURE for i Mllouafiim. I.ivfr Cnmnlnlnt.
