In 8 cases it is reported as rec...eived without cost, either as a gift, or in connection with employment in the tobacco trades. Its use is so general that it must be included as forming part of the established standard of living. The returns in regard to alcoholic drinks away from home are so incomplete as to warrant small inference from them. In certain cases the details are given with completeness, as stated in another connection (page 133).
