"I don't know whether he boozes now, but he used to be tanked quite regularly," said one.
"Oh, I guess he boozes a little; but he's hard-headed and knows how to handle the stuff." "Women? Roast beef, boiled potatoes and musty ale for two." "Actresses. Say, make mine a beer.

Boozes a bit, doesn't he?" "Not now. Hasn't for six months. He's a new man. I can guarantee him." "You can, eh? Well, my experience is once a boozer always a boozer." "Oh," said Barry, "Hobbs is different.
