Summer Drinks ye Ny RNA Now Cost More Without a Kick “Cocktails,” Cups and Tam Col- linses, Causing Only Memories, Still on Gale. Do New Yorkers like to be fooled, or do the visitors like to get a thrill just because they are in the “big city?” A glance at the summer drink liste of the local hotels, which oame out 4@ day or two ago, makes one wonder, Any one who did not realize that Pro- hibition was with us would sit down and look at them with great rolish and expectancy. But—— On the price-lists, under the caption “ooektails,” are the following: Bronx, » 40, Vermouth, 40. Martini, 40, Or- @nge Blossom, .40, Now for a moment picture any one @aying 40 cents for a Bronx before the days of Prohibition. Just imagine the manner in which the visitor of most marked rusticity would demand the head waiter, the manager or the polio, And in those days a Bronx had of least “authority.” ‘The insi¢- ‘ious Bronx, the ~ily Martini, the adroit Orange Blossom of to-day, at # cents per, may bear tender memo- Thes, but they have no “messago.” ‘Then, again, « Tom Cotlns may be obtained for 80 conts to-day. Not go long ago hotel served th: ry in the country.” It cost 40 conta, but nO one ever protested, becaus¢ after Grinking it and receiving his eheck he didn’t really care. He just wanted to go to bed. In 1916, there was @ place opposite the side entrance of the Paso del Marte, in E Pago, where the “Tom” was a specialty. If you orlered two at once they cost @ quarter, or fifteem cents apiece. One could fool the man- agement by ordering two and drinking them one at a time. And even that, considering the result on! everything, was extravagance in fl Paso, a town where aguaidiente used to make one throw ten-dollar bills in the street to see if a breeze was blow- ing. In New York to-day, “cups’\ cost from $3 to $4, minus kick and every- | | thing, while formerly a financial op- wa timist could regard with pleasure a quart sauterne cup which would keep his companion and himself In the best of humor thronghout the even- ing for $1.75. If one wants to make an impression | | to-day, he can wauder to the en} of the drink list and order somet¥ing that sounds like the real thing for $4.50 per bottle, without “cup.” But—O tempora! — neither cock- produce any spntiment other thag One of guilt at having paid so much for kickless refreshments. Yet the people who print the “Drink List"— called “Beverage Menu” in the best circles—say shat people still buy ‘em and do so with a smile, with a smite.” BIANCA WEST WINS DIVORCE, $22,500 ALIMONY AND NAME William D.
