COBBLERS. • The ' Cobbler' is a general favourite in hot weather. No great skill is required in its preparation, although it IS desirable to display a little taste in its ornamentation, so that it may be as pleasing to the eyeas it is acceptable to the palate. Catawba. Catawba is a Califomian wine but little known in this country. Champagne may be substituted, and for the purpose the Italian wine known as Sparkling Asti is very suitable. P.S.—If sparkling wines areused they should be mixed with a spoon, not shaken. Dissolve one teaspoonful of icing sugar in one tablespoonful ofwater, which you have put into a large tumbler; then add two wineglasses of Catawba or Asti wine, and fill the tumbler with shaved or pounded ice; shake well, ornament with one or two slices of orange or pineapple and berries in season, and place two straws in the glass.
