THE WHITE MOUNTAIN REGION OF
Il New Hampshire is known to thousands of
people who have been either hurriedly through
the beaten route or fingered longer in some of
the places whose names at least are familiar to
all Americans. Mt. Washington is the con-
spicuous peak, with its ascent made easy BY
the little railway, and its hostelry OH top, from
which so fine view may be obtained that
visitors by the score come and so for the sake
of it. Of Mt. Washington itself no such idea
can be got by climbing it, however. rs by look

thought that women we're in the habit of
drinking as much as men. In the higher
classes the appetite for liquor was fostered by
fancy drinks and late suppers. Moderate
drinkers; he declared, eventually make drunk
