Watering Milk: in Naples
The milkmen od Naples have a way
of carrying concealed In their waist-
coats bladders full of water. From
these bladder. India rubber tubing
vtrcttches down their arms, and by
simplypretesting their sides while they
are drawing the milk they are able
to agotrt water from the bladder Into
the jug or ban elmaltadeonely with
the milk. So It Is quite a common plan
for a woman who s getting her jug
filled with milk to hold the milkman's
erste while he milks hie oow or
goat. Until the stranger has the rea-
son explained to him, he thinks It very
odd to we women crouching down by
the milkman, keeping a tight hold on
to each of hs wrists.
