AUTOMATIC MILK-SELLER.

In educational and sanitary matters Geiv man authorities lead all others. A very commendable feature has been introduced in several schools in Berlin : automat- were placed in the court yards which, for a smail coin delivered hot or cold milk. sa\s tne New York Independent. "First, one procures a cup which falls out of an opening, and which is made of waterproof strong paper; then a pedal is pressed down an.l the cup is filled with pure milk at any desired temperature. Heating is done inside entirely automatically by liquid fuel. The cleaning and rinsing of the tubes and tanks through which the milk runs is also effected automatically. The amount a*ko<l is so small, 2c, that scarcely any profit is made, &s it is intended to give the pupils the milk at actual cost. It should he pointed out that the whole process is unexcelled from the hygienic standpoint, as only the brst inspected milk is used, end every person receives a separate cup, features j which we do not find in the many rcstau- j rants and nrlk «.hops. The sucees> with those patented automats has Iren very great, and they will be installed in many , more schools of the German empire.' 1 j
