Oyster Cocktail (For Eight)

Mix together the strained juice of half a lemon, one-half teaspoon of vinegar, eight drops of tabasco sauce, one-half teaspoon of horse-radish and one-half teaspoon of tomato catsup. Add eight oysters and let stand five minutes. Do not chop large oysters, but use blue points or a small oyster. Have glasses chilled before filling. Use claret or cocktail glasses. Mrs J. T. Baxter.
