THE NEW SUMMER DRINK.

COLD BOVRIL AND SODA WATER.

DR. ANDREW WILSON, in the "Daily Express" of July 24th, has an interesting article of

"WHAT SHALL WE DRINK ?”.

in which he says -----

"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 better for us. Even light bear will be preferable in this sense to ordinary iles, and stout is not to be thought of if we wish to keep moderately cool."

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