THIS BOOK HAS BEEN PREPARED FOR THE BENEFIT OF THOSE
WHO PATRONIZE THE BEST BAR-ROOMS, WINE-ROOMS, AND
CLUB-ROOMS, SO THAT THEY MAY KNOW WHAT IS
REALLY GOOD, AND WHEN AND WHERE THEY CAN
GET IT. IF THAT CLASS SHALL BE BENEFITED,
THEN THE WRITER WILL FEEL AMPLY REPAID
FOR THE TIME AND TROUBLE HE HAS EX-
PENDED, AND WILL FEEL THAT A LIFE
SPENT IN THE SERVICE OF GOOD
TASTE HAS NOT BEEN IN VAIN.
