OLD CHRISTMAS FARE.-True to their
Saxon origin, our English ancestors saw
in every holiday an occasion for feasting
Plenty to eat and drink was their idea OF
a festival, no matter how sacred might be
its associations The fast DAYS of the
English were few; their feast DAYS were
plenty. The best day of all. and the
iollest, was Christmas. They then not
only linei their stomachs with good eapon,
as did Shakespesre's justice, bul stuffed
themselves with all sorts of ri ch, noursh-
ing food and strangely compounded pud.
dings and pies. The week before Christ
mas was occupied in filing the larder
with capons, hens, turkeys. geese, ducks,
venison, beef, mutton, pork pies, mince
pies, puddings nuts. pums, sugar and
honey. The wine cask and the wine and
cider barrels were put on tap, and bever-
ages were mixed that would puzzle Il
modern bar tender. An Italian provcrb,
existing 800 years ago says: 'IIe has
more business than English ovens ut
Christmas"
Noblemen and squires kept open house.
All comers were welcomed, and lord and
subject were that day put on Il level by
the grace of hospitality. Even titled ladies
were so sprinkled with the days spirit
| that all the starch was taken out of their
manners, though their ruiiles might be as
stiff as ever.
The first of the Christmas dishes served
up at the manor.house dinner was the
boar's head. On dish of gold or silver,
it was borne into the banqueting hall,
amid the flourish of trumpets and the
songs of knights and ladies', who follow.
cd in stately procession. Spread around
it were rosemary and bays. An apple or
an orange graced its mouth, and mustard
was lis sauce.
The fancy cooks of Boston and New
York tlalter themselves that they are arts
tic and original when they put roasted
ducks and grouse on the table arrayed in
their natural feathers. But 800 years ago
Christmas dinners in England were olna-
mented with n roasted peacock resplen-
lant in his feathers, variegated tail and
gilded beak. Sometimes piece of cottcn n,
saturated with spirits, was put in its beak
and lighted before the carver began his
work on this flood for lovers and meat
for lords"
The celebrated plum pudding-the
pride of an English Christmas illustrates
the theory of evolution. At first, it was
Il plum porridge, made from mutton boil
ed in broth, thickened with brown bread, |
in which half boiled raisins, currants,
prunes, cloves, mace and ginger were
mixed. The whole was thoroughly boiled
and served with the meats From that
mess came forth the glory of the table, Oh
English plum pudding.
The well known mince pie, whose inter
ference with the digestive organs has given
it the name Of the "devl's pie is an
ancient and popular Christmas dish.
Mince pies were formerly made of neat S
tongues, chickens, egg, sugar, currents,
lemon and orange peel, with various
spices. The crust was oblong, in the
form of a coffin, in imitation OF the man.
Ger where the Holy Child was laid. The
were supposed to refer to the
of the wise men.
Neither the Puritans nor the Quakcr's
would eat mince pies, on account of their
association with the observance of Christ
mas.

| MOONSTRUCK THE sun shall not
>mite thee by day nor the moon by night. ~
This beautiful verse expresses the belief,
common in ancient days, that the moon
exercises II baleful influence upon those
exposed to her direct rays. In modern
times he pernicious influence of the moon
has been donbted and even denied. But
whatever the influence of the moon in the
temperate zones, within the tropics it is
very Injurious TO sleep exposed to its rays,
especially when at the full. On a voyage
to the antipodes, when near the line, a
Maltese sailor, who was IA most comical
fellow, slept for some hours on the boom
with his face toward the full MOON On
waking in the morning the muscles on the
right side of his face were contracted, 50
that every attempt to speak was attended
with the most ludicrous contortions. Feel
ing sure that something was seriously
wrong, he spoke to another sailor, who.
supposing that as usual he was at his odd
tricks, burst out into laughter. on he
went to another, with exactly the same
result. The poor fellow now got into IL
rage, thereby adding not little to the
ludicrousness of the scene. After awhile
the truth dawned upon the captain and
officers of the vessel. The doctor gave
him some medicine, the muscles gradual.
ly Ieaxe1, and in the course of Il week
our maltese friend was well again. Some
five or six years ago, when sailing from
Tahati to Mangai, little boy of mine in
perfect health, was thoughtlossly placed
by his nurse in his berth, the slanting
beams of the moon falling on his face.
Next morning he was teverish and i'll,
and it was two or tn ee DAYS before he was
himself again. On the island of Aitutaki
a native woman was watching night after
night for the return of her husband from
the Island of Atiu. While doing so one
night she fell asleep, the moons rays
pouring upon her face. On awakening,
she felt i'll, and her eyes were drawn on
one side Considerable interest was felt
by the islanders in her case. Eventually,
however, her eyes were restored Th, Sc
facts illustrate the injury done to human
beings by the moon in the tropics. Yet
never heard of insanity or death resulting
from this cause. 1t is we'll known, how
ever, in tropical countries that the moons
rays occasion the rapid decomposition of
flesh and fish. a number of boniLas having
been caught one evening near the line by
a friend of mine, the spoil was hung up
In the rigging of the ship, and was thus
exposed TO the moon through the night.
Next morning it was cooked for breakfast. |
Symptoms of poisoning were soon exhibit
ed by all who partook OF it-their heads
swelling to great size, etc. Emetics
were promptly administered and happily |
no one died. The natives of the South |
Pacific are careful never to expose fish

THE Jew YEAR.

THE NEW YEAR, taI g.
silent and whitslil,m'l o.
Tbro' the dim plight .L
Fell the soft snow, u - w '-''
Now fast, now s1bw esn p7r!'
Making the posts ,..
Like sheeted ghosts. %
Rolling the woodB
In finer goods
Than ever were spun by mortal skill,
And bleached on the sunny side oofl the hill
Where fringes are woven by weayers, where
The warp is mist and the woof is air;
The world is dressed, like BRIDE in white
Although the poor old year died last night
Drop not tear
On the cold bier
OF the brave year
Whose course is here
His work is done
And battles won,
And he will be
Named with the free
Through future time
For deeds sublime
We welcome here
The newborn year,
The snow that falls
From the gray walls
OF the thick clouds
Is not for shrouds
For the days fed
Or the years dead
'Ts the white fleece
L IN g m of peace,
Sent down to cheer
The soft young year
May no red vein
Mako o red stain
On the robe white
Woven last night.
