Living London; its work and its play, its humour and and its pathos, its sights and its scenes; . It has its newspaper, theLondoner Zcitiing, and its financial paper,Die Fiiianz-chroiiik. Within its area are many fashionableresidents. Royal and Serene Highnesses,titled aristocrats, wealthy bankers, merchantprinces, world-kno\ engineers, celebratedsavants, and renowned artists live in thepalaces and mansions of the west, and leadan unostentatious life. But there are occa-sions when their salons are most brilliant,and receptions, dinners, and balls herald thebirthday of the Kaiser. On that day therooms of the Embassy are crowded, and notuncommonly the occasion is marked by richgifts to charities, for the wealthy Germansare both patriotic and benevolent. Taking it all in all, German London ishardworking, even to harshness, but it hasalso its kindly, humanising mood, its intel-lectual recreations, its strong animal spirits,its music, its songs, and its dances. One may see more sunshine in the west,more shadow in the east, but the prevailinglight, after all, is that of DRINKING THP: S HEALTH AT THEMILITAR-VEREIN (WARDOUR STREET).
