PUNCH FOR LADIES.
As the Gentleman said, They Wanted
Something Outside of the Ordinary


From the New York Dispatch.
A well known society gentleman, who
should know all about such things, ap-
preached the wine steward Of a leading
hotel the other day. saying:
My wife is to give a party, and wants
a punch made out of something else than
champagne or claret Mind you, no cham
payne, no claret; The wine steward must
remember that"
The wine steward did understand this.
but explained that a nice light claret
punch was about as light a punch as
could be made, and about as palatable to
ladies.
That does not make any difference"
said the gentleman; the orders are no
claret and no champagne. Now, what can
Leave it to me-" replied the steward
and l Will fix you up something that
Will please your guests. HOW would a
punch of cordials answer?'
Not at all. That is too much drug store
ana confectionery punches. 1 want the
real punch, but no champagne and no
claret."
And so the matter was left.
NOW, the fact is, that but a small pro-
portion of drink mixers know how to
fashioned whisky punch. and MANY of
them do not know the latter The fash
ionable hotels have punch named for
is guarded very carefully. A reporter
visited a couple of dozen of men en-
plOyeu at bars which command the best
trade in the city, men who are supposed
TO be adopts at mixing anything that
combines whisky or wine, and but five
OF them could tell how to mix a punch
One man had a receipt, which he had
eXperimented upon for which he had re-
FUSED 500. And yet another man might
take it and produce a drink which would
be on a par with Mississippi river water
in its present darkened condition That
IS, there is everything in knowing how
to put the ingredients in, in what order
and how fast, as well as in knowing
what they are. That can only be learned
by successive attempts. Another thing
to remember is that there is everything
in fiavoring. A cook knows when 10 nIif
the fiavoring into cake to make it most
delicious, and the same cook will exercise
the same good sense in fiavoring a punch
an eggnog, or anything else. And bv
the way, the most delicious navoring for
eggnog is a little champagne and the
finest flavor for a punch is lime, the
Juice OF half lime to a cup. They are
difficult to obtain, however, out of sea-
son.
The punch that was furnished to the
gentleman whose order was to exclude
champagne and claret was made up as
follows, the quantity being about suffi-
cient for three drinks for a party of
| twenty: Four quarts of dry Catawba
| two bottles of English club soda, one
half pint of Curocoa, wine glass of ST
| Croix rum, one-half pint lemon iuice. 2I
| pounds of powdered sugar. The hotel
| wine steward covered himself with glory
| as the ladies said they had never tasted
anything so perfectly delicious in their
lives.

And not a cent to pay.

In q library rich and grand,
With etchings, and busts. and cases o

Old books on every hand.
He slipped his wine and he smoked his pipe.
AS in luxury he wrote;
But the poem he polished in languid ease
No living man can quote.
Another poet in an attic high
Bent over a table bare;
And he thought, as he worked. with tired

or the man in the easy chair.
He was hungry and faint, for life with him
Was mostly unbroken fast;
But the poem he wrote to earn a meal
