/ ODDITIES IN DRINKING.

Englishmen Drink Tea-Scotch and
 Soda Displaces B. and S.-French Water and Sugar.
 Many readers were surprised doubt less, in reading the story of Anton Seidls wanderings 8 few hours before his death, to learn that he resorted to a we'll known Broadway coffee-house Ito read the papers," That had been his habit during all his visits to New York, and there any afternoon one may see a group of the most distinguished German musicians and writers in the city slipping coffee, talking, or reading the papers,
 What drinking is to upper class Englishmen coffee-drinking is to the same class of Germans, and both are
 what, alas! cocktail drinking is to many Americans. It is one of the few genuine surprises Americans meet with in England to find that tea-drinking,
 besides being an almost religious func-
 tion in polite English society, is a habit just as slavishly followed on ath- letic and sporting fields. To see a muscular, bronzed, husky young giant step out of a boat on the Thames and eagerly make for the nearest tea table ought not perhaps to seem funny, but it is.
 Cricketers go from the field and rush mo, walk slowly-to a nearby booth and float their powerful intellects in | tea" and on every side of the field tea | is served to the spectators by the gall lon. On the lawns of the fashinable | inclosures at the race courses a hun l 1f la or ap, 1aS to | glass of champagne, and so it is all | over the tight little island
 | Not that an Englishman does not drink as much spirits" as do Ameri-
 cans, but they do not, as a rule-and
 still speaking of the upper class-drink
 spirits until after their late dinners. Then they do wonderful deeds with
 Scotch and soda-the day of B. and s. having departed.
 | There is a popular impression that
 absinthe is the prevailing drink among l Frenchmen, and especially among l those who have the leisure and inclina- | tion to loiter at the little marble-top | tables in front of the boulevard cafes 1 Indeed, the late afternoon is still called I "the green hour" there. but that is a 1 radition. Beer is the popular drink l with the idlers on the boulevard both | in the afternoon and in the even more | crowded evening hours. 1t is chear | beer, and oh, so very, very bad! And l Parisians sip it as they used to sip ab- | sinthe, taking half an hour to drink | a glass.
 | Coffee, black, served in goblets anG l made syrupy with sugar, is common | drink at the cafes, more often called
 for in the afternoon than the once 1 common absinthe, and doubtless quite l as harmful, as 1t is a strange, sad imi.
 tation of the real thing.
 l Another surprise Americans meet is l when they learn what their French l companions, men and women, are
 drinking at the Chalet du Cycle,' 1T | the Bois de Boulogne. A party of mer
 and women will ride up to the chalet
 hot, dusty and thirsty, of course They l rush to a table and order something
 in an excitement which suggests to thu ! American observer a hurry order fol
 Thigh ball,' and the waiter serves l sugar and water! They become as hilarious over his as if they were con.
 suming quarts of champagne.r-Nev

How Are You Supplying Your Table With
 Water

We assume that you are using something besides the ordinary city or town water supply, as It is now generally recognized that water as it comes direct from the mains is too impure for drinking. Are you using spring water? If so, would you not be glad to reduce your water bill to small fraction of what 1t now is, and save the annoyance of handling bottles or carboys, obtaining at the same time equally good Gin fact frequently better) water?
 If you are using some system of filtra- ton, are you satisfied with it's results?
 Do you get an ample supply of water?
 Is it always white and pure, and does your filter work well 4A--L THE TIME? If not, will you permit us to show you how those results can be reached, by talk ing with you further, or by having our agent call on you?
