I like a little beer now and then, and when the teetotallers inform us, as they frekently do, that it is vile stuff, and that even the swine shrink from it, I say it only shows that the swine is a ass who don't know what's good; but to pour gin and brandy down one's throat as freely as though it were fresh milk, is the most idiotic way of goin' to the devil that I know of.
So then Pincher dropped it, and Lord Tottenham fastened his collar again he never does change it if there's any one looking and he said 'I'm much obliged, I'm sure. Nasty vicious brute! Here's something to drink my health. But Dicky explained that we are teetotallers, and do not drink people's healths. So Lord Tottenham said, 'Well, I'm much obliged any way.
They thus cultivated some taste for music. They also kept people for the time being out of their favourite "publics." Like many teetotallers, however, they were very intolerant of non-teetotallers. Some even went so far as to say that one must be a teetotaller to get to heaven.
Whenever possible, she had adopted the same course, but she was unaware that the remedy had been applied by the military authorities. Even this method of relieving their sufferings, however, was rejected by a large number of young soldiers, on the ground that they were teetotallers, but the Belgian doctors had permitted its use amongst their men.
In theory they reverence the Vedas but practically the two Purâṇas mentioned are their sacred books. They are strict vegetarians and teetotallers: they do not insist on child marriages nor object to the remarriage of widows. Their only object of worship is Śiva in the form of a lingam and they always carry one suspended round the neck or arm.
Words in this wise then he utter'd: 'Not to drink have I come hither From the tankard of Manala, Not to empty Tuoni's beaker; They who drink of beer are drowned, Those who drain the can are ruin'd." The hero's concluding words might form a motto for our teetotallers; and in any case his abstinence enabled him to succeed in his errand and return.
He laughed at teetotallers; they were such a sneaking, helpless lot, he said why couldn't they take what was good for them, and stop there when they'd had enough; surely a man ought to be master of his own appetites he was, he said; he could stop when he pleased. However, to make a long story short, he took a great fancy to my dear sister, and she soon returned it.
The Liberal party had fallen to pieces, and Edward Baines, as a supporter of the Government, had to bear the weight of the offence given both to the Radical Nonconformists and to the rabid teetotallers.
"Fond o' children?" ses Sam. Mr. Goodman nodded. "Fond of everybody," he ses. "That's 'ow Peter is," ses Ginger; "specially young " Peter Russet and Sam both turned and looked at 'im very sharp. "Children," ses Ginger, remembering 'imself, "and teetotallers. I s'pose it is being a teetotaller 'imself." "Is Peter a teetotaller?" ses Mr. Goodman. "I'd no idea of it. Wot a joyful thing!"
The Germans are a big, square-shouldered, deep-chested race. They do not talk much, but look as though they thought. Like all big things, they are easy-going and good-tempered. Anti-tobacconists, teetotallers, and such-like faddists, would fare badly in Germany.
