Fill the goblet again; for I never before Felt the glow which now gladdens my heart to its core. Let us drink; who would noH ~ince through life's varied round In the goblet alone no deception is found.-Byron.

HILLYCROFT· COOLER. 76 Peel a lemon so that it will curl in the form of a cone, and after having pressed the oil out of part of the peel, just to spray the glass a little, you place the cone inverted in a long, thin glass and fill up with fine cracked ice. Some people put a little lemon juice in, but tha t detracts. Then you add a jigger of Old ToP1 gin. Let this lie for a minute. All you have to do now is to fill up the ginss with imported ginger ale and smile. 77 Into a small mixing-glass place a dessertspoonful of sugar, the juice of two lemons, one raw egg and a jigger of cognac. Shake well with two or three lumps of ice, pour into a large goblet, fill up with ginger ale, stir, decorate and serve with straws. 78 Some years ago the la te Wm. Remsen, a retired naval officer and a popular member of the Union Club, New York, introduced a beverage to the members of that swell organization which has since taken his name and is now known to all clubmen by the appellation of ''Remsen Cooler.'' The following is the correct recipe:.-- Pare a lemon (a lime will not answer the purpose) as you would an apple, so that the peel will resemble a corkscrew, place the rind in a long, thin glass and pour over it a full jigger of Old Tom cordial gin; with a bar-spoon now press the peel and stir it thoroughly, so the liquor will be well flavored with the essence of the skin and fill the glass with plain soda off the ice. English Club soda is highly recommended for this drink. Be sure the soda is cold. LAWN TENNIS COOLER. REMSEN COOLER.
