ABSTRACT
San Jose and elsewhere in country hotels you find a considerable list of native wines, but they bring you French wines unless you insist upon the native product.
The native wine is cbeap; 1;>ut it is" the thing" to put French wines on the table; and, though Landsberger's dry Champagne, 01' his sweeter sparkling muscatel, is both cheap and pure and good, your friend will not present it without an apology, and takes care, in his eager hospitality, to press upon you French Champagne.
