Gauging Beer Capacity

In southern Germany, where increáble quantities of beer are drunk daily and where the steady customers sit for hours at table, drinking glass after giass. mug after mug, filled by buxom maidens, some geiiius has introduced the "beerometer," attached to the bottom of a drinking Cessel - a numbered dial with one hand. With each glassful or mugful which the drinker receives the hand is .vaneed one number. As the hand cannot be moved backward the "beerometer" exercises perfect control - to the saloon-keeper' satisfaction at least.
