The Woman's Booth at New Orleans
By Editor
THE following is from Mrs. E. E. Kellogg's notes on the New Orleans Exposition, which appeared in the March number of Good Health:— "Prominent among the attractions of the Woman's Booth is the beautiful pavilion of the National W. C. T. U., with its comfortable seats and inviting fountain, where the weary and thirsty may find rest and a drink of pure water, the only place upon the grounds, we were told, where nature's beverage is obtainable, though beer gardens and ale stands are plentiful enough. [Since the above was written, the managers have insisted upon the removal of the fountain, and will not allow the ladies of the W. C. T. U. to supply water to visitors, even at their own expense, as the privilege of furnishing drinks has been sold for a liberal sum to beer and whisky venders, who are now in full possession, and virtually prohibit the use of any drink upon the ground, except such as they delight to dispense.]"
