1 wine-glass St. Croix rum or Jamaica. 1 table-spoon "New Orleans" molasses. If called for in summer,stir in about a table-spoon of water and cool with fine ice. 'If in the winter, fill the glass with boiling water, grat ing a little nutmeg on top, and serve.

Blue Blazer,'

jtable-spoon sugar, dissolved in a little hot water. 1 wine-glass Scotch whisky. Set the liquid on fii-e, and, while blazing, pour 3 or 4 times from one mug into another. This will give the appearance of a stream of liquid fire. Twist a piece of lemon peel on top with a little grated nutmeg, and serve. As this preparation requires skill, it is quite requisite that the amateur should practice with cold water at firet.
