There is no liquor in the world upon
which a man becomes SO quickly in

toxication is pleasant as the effect OF

ant, luminous exhilaration, everything
becoming brighter, happier. lighter;
then you get very sleepy.
At Japanese dinners it is the rule to
become slightly exhilarated, but not to
drink enough to talk thickly or walk
crooked. The ability to drink at ban.
quets requires practice-long practice
There are banquets of many kinds,
and the man who is invited to one at

The cups are very small and Of many
