Only for Foreign Use

This booklet is dedicated to the thirsty sons of a very dry nation by a kind hearted Diplomat, who took the last cocktail in the last second at the bar of the famous Metropolitan Club in Washington, D. C. before the heat wave struck the States and all springs of pleasure and enjoyment went dry.
These receipts were the property of the Metropolitan Club, Washington, D. C. and by their short and imperative orders many a sorrow had to flee and make room for cheerfulness. To keep them bright and polished, the mourning old Bartender of this fine Club handed the original copy of these to the gentleman who took the last drink at the Club bar, asking him to let his friends in foreign countries, where an abudance of milk and honey flows, partake of the traditional art and experience of a long row of masters of the mixing guild, for their Enjoyment and Englightment.
Motto: Right quality. Largest quantity.
