HARM DONE BY ALCOHOL IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE BODY.
Raw alcohol does not do much harm to people because it is too strong for
them to drink much of it; but the alcohol hidden in cider, ale, wine,
whiskey, and other alcoholic drinks kills not less than _sixty thousand_
persons in this country every year, besides those who die from its use in
other parts of the world.
