A
BACHELOR'S
CUPBOARD
Correct
Wines
for
all
Occasions
of
his
college
days
—
and
lemonade
glasses
for
those
mixed
"
ladies'
delights,"
etc.
The
bachelor
who
has
a
menage
will
have
his
side-
board
well
stocked
with
the
necessary
decanters,
cor-
dial
sets,
etc.,
but
for
the
impecunious
bachelor
or
he
who
lives
in
his
studio
nothing
more
handy
was
ever
invented
than
the
"
Bachelor's
Cabinet,"
with
its
sft-
companiment
of
decanters,
mixing
glasses,
tiny
ice-box,
and
all
the
requisites
for
a
convivial
evening
at
home.
Even
when
one
is
reduced
to
standing
his
beer
bot-
tles
outside
on
the
window
ledge
to
cool
and
has
to
dust
furtively
the
steins
he has
taken
from
their
hooks,
he
need
not
deplore
the
lack
of
more
expensive
bever-
ages
or
the
absence
of
cut
glass
and
champagne.
It's
not
so
much
what
one
drinks
as
with
whom
and
where
he
drinks
it.
"
You
look
at
what
I
drink,
and
not
at
my
thirst/*
ON
How
often
does
a
man
hasten
to
**
put
SERVING
beer
on
ice
"
when
a
friend
drops
in
of
an
BEER
evening?
Yet
this
is
contrary
to
cus-
tom
in
the
Old
World,
where
one
frequently
sees
the
German
sit
for
a
few
moments
with
his
hand
about
his
glass
to
bring
the
contents
to
the
proper
tempera-
ture
before
drinking.
Beer
should
not
be
served
very
cold,
as
excessive
chilliness
destroys
the
fine
flavor
it
should
have
and
renders
it
injurious.
Beer
