HOW TO BEHAVE. [To THE EDITOR OF THE " SPECTATOR."1

SIR,—Referring to the article entitled " How to Behave" in your issue of June 27th, where you suggest the term " sediment-bowl " as an alternative for " slop-basin," allow me to suggest the term used, I am told, by the would-be genteel in Glasgow for this useful appendage to the tea-table, viz.,

" dreg-vase." —I am, Sir, &c., A. H. C.
