Eating and Drinking In Russia.

Cups and saucers are never used for
tea anywhere In Russia. The teacup is
IN unknown article. The drinking
vessel for tea is the ''stakan." glass

almost universal rule Is to. allow the

It is when poured out of very pale
straw tint, such us we would laugh at
for its weakness. A Russian would
have the sense to pronounce our tea as
served strong" nauseous poison. The
summer drink is the "stakan" of tea
with slice of lemon dropped in.
Neither sugar nor milk will usually be
taken. but there is an exceptional prac-
tice in the case of sugar. Amongst
the crowds of the common people
whom l have watched with interest in
the great gardens and open-air restau-
rants of various cities in Russia, have
often seen a "moujik" (peasant) or his
wife take lump of sugar and put It in
the mouth before beginning to sip the
beverage. But l never saw a Russian
of any class put into tea piece OF
sugar in order to stir 1t up with the
lemon and the decoction. The sugar is
always held in the mouth that the tea
may flow over 1t, and that it may slow
ly melt. Three national drinks must
be reckoned in Russia. The most pop
ular of all Is tea. The next in favor is
