cups, but was unable to drink it all
because he was kept busy chewing a
biscuit sandwich. We heard our Bris-

ties of the beverage and expressed his
opinion that it was not purchased from
him, as he did not keep any such fine
favored drink. One of the walters

crosby in supplying the social so liber-
ally with good things. and we must
say that Bristol possesses a very rare
set of cooks, as proven by the way they
made the good things "spin" out.
