article on

WHAT SHALL WE DRINK?”

in which he JOYS :--

"The great question of these tropical days is What Shall We Drink?" I think all medical men are agreed that the less alcohol we consume in hot weather the letter for us, Even light beer will be preferable in this sense to ordinary alles, and stout is not to be thought of if we wish to keep modumtely cool."

"

For those who are engaged all day let me rocomiend a novel combination-I mean a little Bovril (cold of course), made in the ordinary way, and added soda water. I have found this 161832 drink sustaining and pleasant."
