Origin of the term "Booze"

Did you know that the origin of the word "booze" came from a U.S. Presidential campaign?   Well it did, and here is the story behind this word.
During the president campaign for William Henry Harrison,  (the 9th president of the United States, and the first President to actually die while in office), Harrison's campaign managers based most of the campaign on the fact that he grew up in a log cabin.   They had little wooden log cabins made up and distributed as campaign trinkets to supporters and the E.C. Booz Distillery began to create pocket sized whiskey bottles that were in the shape of log cabins.    They later called this bottles "booze," the word then transformed from slang into the English language.
