Table Manners.

Nothing Is 80 important In the train.
ing of family Of children (after teach
ing them reverence and to tell the TRUTH,
as to give them good table manners,
says an article In Harper's Bazar, from
which are taken these extracts: It is
said by foreigners to be great national
defect with us Americans. We do not,
as q nation, comport ourselves well at
the table. In the first place, we eat too
fast, and are apt to make g noise over
our soup. Well-bred people put their
soup into their mouths without sound,
lifting up their spoon slowly. thinking
about it, and managing to swallow it
noiselessly. In the second place, we are
accused of chewing our food with the
mouth open, and Of putting too much
in the mouth at once. Again, we are
accused, particularly at railway stations
and at hotels, of putting our heads In
our plates, and Of eating with the knife
instead Of with the fork. Some people
eat instinctively and with great elegance; ;
some never achieve elegance in these
minor matters, but oil should strive for
it. There is no more repulsive object
than person who eats noisily, grossly,
inelegantly. DR.. johnson is remembered
for his brutal way of eating almost as
much as for his great learning and
genius. With him it was selfish preoc-
cupation. Fish and fruit are eaten with
silver knives and forks; or, if silver fish,
knives are not provided, piece of bread
can be held in the left hand. Fish cor
rodes a. steel knive. Never tilt soup
plate for the last drop, or scrape your
plate clean, or drain your wine-glass to
the dregs. Leave something for man.
ners "a good old rule. A part of table
manners should be the conversation. By
mutual consent, every one should bring
only the best that is in him to the table.
There should be the greatest care taken
in the family circle to talk of only agree
able topics at meals. The mutual for
bearance which prompts the neat dress,
the respectful bearing, the delicate habit
of eating, the attention to table etiquette,
should also make the mind put on its
best dress, and the effort of any one at
meal should be to make himself or her
self as agreeable as possible. No one
should show any haste in being helped,
any displeasure at being left until the
last. It is always proper at AN informal
meal to ask for second cut, to say that
rare or underiono beef is more to your
taste than the more cooked portions, to
ask for another glass of champagne or
sherry. But one never asks twice for
soup or fish; one is rarely helped twice
at dessert. These dishes, also salad, are
supposed to admit of but one helping.

A Southern Case Of Witchcraft.

eff the town Of Salem, In Massachu-
sets, said Bob Billingsby, "thinks she
has had the onliest witches in this coun-
try, all got to say about it is that she
is simply mistaken. Now, there was old
Brother McGraw and old Sister Hut
ton"
Bob's story, in short, was thus Old
Brother McGraw and old Sister Hutton
were members of Philips Bridge Church.
Brother McGraw was consistent mem-
ber, but old Sister Hutton, to say the
truth, was regarded somewhat as
heathen, and even addicted to WITCH
craft. A calf OF Brother McGraw's, Of
uncommon promise, dwindled in spite OF
uncommon pains, and finally died, and
the good man, persuaded in his mind
that his neighbor, although spiritual
sister, had bewitched it, set out in his
wrath for her house, and, taking her by
the hand, gave her o violent wrench.
Sister Hutton reported the Case to the
church, and, ut the conference one Sat-
urday, Brother McGraw, being mildly
demonstrated with, went 80 far us to say
that he would have to think about it.
The moderator blandly suggested to him
10 withdraw for few moments. retro
into the woods, reflect and pray over
the matter. He did 80. On returning.
the moderator and the brethren were
gratified to observe the calm regret that
was visible upon his countenance. This
moderator was O man Of power, both ~
to intellect and character. It was Silas
Mercer. Then this dialogue ensued:
Mr.. Morcer-" Well, Brother Nc
Graw, I see you've returned, and I think
you've come to just conclusion in the
matter about which you have been re-
fecting."
He looked inquiringly at the aged
brother, and the aged brother answered
his inqujring look with meek silence.
"I think you feel sorry, Brother Nc
Graw," suggested Mr.. NJ, in kindly,
leading tone.
Eyes, Brer Moderator" answered the
aged brother. livery sorry; I'm very
sorry"
Yet there was some gruffness in his
tone which led the moderator to doubt
the nature Of his regret.
"Brotner McGraw," said he, evil
you let the church know what sort Of
sorrow it is you feel? Is it cody sor-
row, Brother McGraw ?"
Then the aged brother lifted high his
head, looked the moderator full In the
face, and answered: .Brer Moderator,
I'm sorry-I'm sorry-that I didnt
break her neck. "--EGlitor's DratUer, IL

Surprised that no astonishment was
expressed, the old man added:
"You probably remember that shaggy,
rough-haired Scotch terrier of Ben Mar

perfectly contented with himself and the
rest Of mankind.
