sibly RELY on this more than on
lectures for the prevention of
drunkenness. y cup of good cof-
fee Is furnished for two cents and
hot roll for a cent. This forms a
formidable competitor to a glass OF
hot whisky at. little more than
half its price. The coffee houses
are furnished with plenty Of pa
pers, and the man who sups his
coffee NAV stay a. long as he likes
to read or talk. The independent
laburer who i fed at these coffee
houses has the knowledge that he
is ue recipient Of charity, for these
coffee houses are among the best
paving investments IN Britain.
Most OF the English companies pay
a dividend of ten per cent. on the
money invested, and many of them
more, while all are self-supporting.
