BAR PRACTICE.
A Philadelphia publican has just issued the following " time table," for the information and encouragement of his customers:—
"At 6 a.m., Eye Opener; 7, Appetiser ; 8, Digester; 9, Big Reposer; 10, Refresher ; 11, Stimulant; 12 a.m., Anto-Lunch; 1 p.m., Settler; 2, A la Smyth ; 3, Cooler; 4, Social Drink ; 5, Invigorator; 6, Solid Straight; 7, Chit-Chat; 8, Fancy Smile ; 9, Entre Acte; 10, Sparkler; 11, Rouser; 12 p.m., Night Cap." I laving passed eighteen hours with that pleasing succession of " nips" and ' recuperators," it is quite clear that at 6 a.m. on the next day a man would unquestionably need the " eye opener," and the " appetiser" at seven.
