of entertaining views {

~ the New York Sun a number
of entertaining views on
American life. more especially minute
details in which it differs from the
life OF the people in European cities.
The time was when Americans resent
ed these comments by foreigners, es-
pecially if they We're uncomplimen-
tary, but the nation has outgrown that
period.
The Sun correspondent draws as his
first indictment the irregularity with
which Americans eat "I make no
doubt" says he, "that all American
doctors would agree with their Euro
pean colleagues that regularity in the
mode of life is one of the most es-
sential safeguards against illness. and
should be observed by strong and
weak, by man, woman and child. But
what do I witness here? I meet peO-
pie at hotels for their breakfast at s,
and the next day the same faces APP
pear an hour, or even two later. The
ner. A man of my acquaintance told
me: Sometimes l lunch sometimes 1
don't. The same man tells me that
many of his friends vary their hours
of food just exactly as business COM
pels or their theatergoing ladies de-
and see how robust they are. 1t
stands to reason that irregularity of
life must bring about irregular diges-
ton which opens the door to 'dyspep-
sa.'" This criticism is certainly well
founded so far as it affects frequen-
might be supplemented with a few re-
marks about the exceptional waste in
the conventional American method Of
serving food at these public places Of
refreShment.
The second exception taken by the
foreign critic relates TO what he calls
the vice of ice" Never in my life
long experience" says he. "have / wit
messed more insane habit than that
of drinking iced water with every meal
and drinking it in such unbounded
quantities. Mark please, that / do not
iudiiti WIN tic water, DuI Oilly Wltn
the ice put into it: water at natural
temperature at meals, although DR..
Schweniger condemns it, ] do not OH
ject to, and often enjoy. WhatsI wit
ness here is that every waiter on serv-
ing meal, first puts glass of water
before you, which contains large Jumps
of ice; the people sip a little or drink
half of it and bang comes the waiter
and fills the glass up again. have ac-
tually observed people who during a
meal have disposed of three tumbler-
fuls, the waiter alternately lilling up
with ice or water. We all know that
the primary element which keeps us
alive is warmth; we therefore make
it Il custom and a very necdful Gus
tom it is, of partaking at least twice
day of warm food. Why then put
upon your stomach the needless
trouble Of correcting a glacial liquid
which we pour down our throats in
large quantities."
The question is embarrassing. But
it is no doubt the fore runner of many
others of the same class as the Sun
contributors series of criticisms pro-
ceeds.
