PICK ME UP.

TO SOBER A DRUNK. Place a jigger of Worcestershire sauce, a piece of ice and the juice of one lemon in a large glass and fill it with syphon soda or seltzer. A strong cup of black coffee with a little salt in it is also a good Pick Me Up.

PONY. 187. The word pony means small and is used in the ordering of a very small glass of any Iiquor. A pony gluss is the smallest glass that is made; so, should you wish to serve a pony of any liquor, fill the smallest glass in the house with the desired brand and serve with ice water on the side. A neat way of serving a pony of any liquor is to place a !!mall piece of ice in a small bar glass and pour the liquor from the pony glass over it, or place the small bar glass on the bar in front of the customer sc he can have it as he desires.
