ADDISON
This used to be one of the best before dinner, of
a balmy evening. It was tried particularly on
strangers, and if it didn't warm the cockles of
their hearts to the value of a good host, we didn 't
know our Addisons.

ADMIRAL
Nothing under a two-striper rated this one, and
after two rounds you would all feel like Admirals
anyway. An excellent way to celebrate when the
fleet's in, or when the fleet's out, or when the fleet's
sunk. Anyway, an excellent way to celebrate.

Someone con·cqcted this camouflaged dynamite
years ago. H ere's to him. Smooth as silk, its
rich, creamy sweetness made it seem as though
you were drinking nothing more than a simple
chocolate ice cream soda.
ALEXANDER SUBSTITUTE
A marvelous substitute fo r those who didn ' t d rink.
For it worked just as well as real liquor did. Two
was plenty- and don't say we didn't warn yo:u.
