"But as far as that goes you might have guessed that is you might have..." He broke off as a knock at the door heralded the entrance of a waiter bearing a tray with two frosty cocktails. "Ah! here's something to put a little colour in your cheeks. You want bucking up, you know! Here's how!" She took an appreciative sip, then set down her glass, turning on him a slightly troubled face.
Skinner and Matt Peasley. It was such a gala occasion that Cappy drank three cocktails, battened down by a glass or two of champagne, and as a result was ill for two days thereafter. When he recovered, he announced sadly and solemnly that he was about to retire forever; that nothing of a business nature should ever be permitted to drag him back into the harness again.
If your master doesn't want you for a minute, step across to Mr. Brown's and tell him to send me three cocktails." "Yas, suh," responded Jerry, hesitating. The general had said nothing about paying. "And tell him, Jerry, to charge them. I'm short of change to-day."
I told them they could double their wages by striking at exactly at ten o'clock, when all the boarders wanted cocktails sent to their rooms. "They struck all right, and the breakfast food people had all got pumped out, and then it came my turn.
His life now, is all "Cocktails and poker!" "Poker and cocktails!" It leaves him little time for business. Woods knows his man a useful tool. "Look here, Jaggers; I know your time is valuable."

A really delightful man told me that he did not drink much, and this was his daily experience: before breakfast a champagne cocktail; two or three drinks during the forenoon; a pint of white or red wine at lunch; two or three cocktails in the afternoon; a cocktail at dinner, with two glasses of wine; and in the evening at the club several drinks before bedtime!
Your baby sweetness is worth a fortune on the screen if you have brains enough to manage it, and I fancy you have. Here's to you, Miss Anita Adair!" He drank deep, but she only touched the brim. She saw that he was drinking too much he had had several cocktails while he waited for her to arrive. Kedzie felt that one of the two must keep a clear head.
She is fond of cocktails and champagne things I prefer women not to care for but she will get neither here. A mistake never escapes her eagle eye, and the use of the wrong knife or fork is a shuddering crime. If Jackson would drop one or the other down the back of that very low-neck dress she wears so much I'd give him an extra dollar.
Frequently, during that dinner, as we gained confidence and learned the way, we met among the carnations. Never before was I so glad of what good looks heaven had bestowed upon me as when I saw this man's eyes examine and approve. Never before did I feel so elated at a dinner, so glad to be alive. My pulse ran high. My spirits fairly danced. And all without cocktails, too!
