The question OF when and how much

travelling, it is rash proceeding to
drink much water, and one must learn to
accustom herself to the light wines that
take the place OF tea, coffee or chocolate
with us. In France the use Of the red
or white Bordeaux wines is universal,

'liquor that he loves" too unsatisfactory
to warrant indulgence.
