Some

manufacturers

have

attained

a

high

reputa-

tion

for

their

lemonade

by

adding

a

small

quantity

of

Neroli^

to

the

ordinary

syrup.

be

deemed

an

improvement

by

connoisseurs

generally,

provided

they

are

kept

in

ignorance

of

the

substance

employed

;

but

a

still

greater

improvement

is

produced

by

adding
