ROBINSON SPECIAL George Baxter, Vice-President of the First National Bank here at Plainfield, N. J., gave me a recipe for a new cocktail the other day, which I have found both delicious and powerful. It is prepared in a cocktail shaker with the following ingredients: 1/6 Applejack 1/6 Dry Gin 1/3 Lime juice (or Lemon juice) 1/3 Maple syrup Because of its peculiar action, it has been named "The Creeper." If you will drink three or four of them, the significance of the name might possibly be apparent. Two of them make it quite apparent to me.—^A. P. Robinson.
