drinking has not progressed very far. It has been decreed. however, that in rural communities all drinking places must close at II D. m., while in Co., penhagen the closing hour has been placed at l a. m.
 Here in Sweden there is quite a strict control over bottled spirits with more or less complicated regulations as to restaurants and cafes, the saloon in the American sense being unknown. Between the hours Of 12 and D. m., no liquors can be sold except with food. In GOthenberg and other com munities the drink cannot exceed a certain percentage of the price spent for food. On Sundays no one is ad- mitted to the cafes between the hours of Il a. m. and 1 D. n1. and between 6 and ' D. m-. these hours being set aside for churchgoing. All cafes are at midnight. but there are a great many which seem to have a dispensa- ton as to this particular rule.
 The sale of whiskey, gin and other spirits in bottles is under government regula ton. Each adult wishing to buy spirits must provide himself with a book. In this all purchases are en- tered and no one is allowed more than one quart 8 week. As in other Euro pean countries a strict line is drawn and wine on the other. no limit what ever being placed on the amount of the latter to be bought at any time.
 The favorite drinks with the work men are beer and "Brannvin," dis tillation which looks and tastes like pure alcohol. Among the students and frequenters of the city cafes the Swed- ish "punsch," sweet, iquor-like pre- paration with a very high percentage of alcohol, is exceedingly popular, and is consumed in great quantities. Scotch whiskey, although expensive, is coming into greater popularity ev- cry da yamong the drinking classes. A Scotch and soda costs anywhere from 90 to 45 cents. but Sweden and her sister states of the north are exceed ingly prosperous just now.
 The Swedish government does not feel it is called upon to look after the welfare of foreigners so far as drink is concerned. Upon the produc- tion of a foreign passport the visitor can get any amount of spirit he de- Sires bottled or otherwise,
