Description: This photograph is from a book published in 1875 by Daniel J. Kenny titled Illustrated Cincinnati, a pictorial handbook of the Queen City comprising its architecture, manufacture and trade. The photograph is "The Transrhenane Waiter". The Transrhenane waiter is above all things a man to be pitied, and a man to be admired. To be pitied, because he seems to be perpetually on those not very fat legs of his with never a moment's time for a private dive into one of those glasses he hands about to his thirsty patrons literally by the hundred. He often brings them by the ten or a dozen in each hand. He is to be admired for his imperturbable good nature, for his freedom from flurry, his constant sobriety, and that prompt memory which rarely, if ever, makes a mistake in the precise number of beers, mineral waters, or glasses of wine ordered, or the exact table to which they are to be brought. He is a capitol fellow, and probably 'takes his' in the afternoon before his night work commences. View on Ohio Memory.
