Most Americans are connoisseurs in Cocktails—and a connoisseur’s taste demands uniformity in the flavor, strength and mixing of his favorite drink. There's only one kind of uniformly good cocktail—CLUB COCKTAILS. Bar cocktails are alap-dash guess- work — good by accident, bad by rule—but never smooth or uniform toa cultivated taste.

SENATOR EDWARD WOLCOTT had a more genial view of William McKinley than is expressed by John S. Wise in his recent book, notwithstanding the somber disappointment in his tone. “I go into the White House,” said he to a friend in the Senate, ‘for some of the luscious fruit of patronage hanging on its inner walls. The gracious gardener receives me so |] sweetly that I go away satiated with the rich odors of the things I seck, and it is only when I see you and other friends of the Administration that I realize—so sadly—that the fruit itself is hanging there still."—Harper’s Weekly.

"These trade-marks, which give the purchaser the privilege of the use of the name “Chartreuse” and enable him, under protest of the original owners, to put up something which masquerades under the guise of the genu'ne article, were sold by the French Government at so ridiculously low a price as to afford all the evidence necessary (if any evidence were needed) of the fact that the trade-marks them- selves, without the great secret of manufacture, are practically worthless. A continued use of the bottle and label by the purchaser, whoever he may be, does not by any means insure the contents as being genuine, or even remotely similar to the liqueur which for centuries has given reputation and renown to the monks who make it. Meanwhile the monks of the Grande Chartreuse having, perforce, bequeathed their bottles, labels and trade-marks to France, immediately left their monastery among the rugged rocks of Grenoble, and taking their secret with them, established them- selves permanently at Tarragona, Spain, where they ilized nations and spices to be known henceforth and forever as “Liqueur Peres Chartreux.” For: Tantog, it and all outdoor uses.
