Forty Years Ago.

Collins were very plain and burial caskets
were unknown.
Tombstones had larger epitaphs and more
verbosity engraved upon them.
Eggs were a shilling a dozen and butter
was considered high at eighteen cents per
pound.
Much Of the silver currency, fps, levies
and dollars, was of Mexican and Spanish
coinage.
The country retail trade was much better,
as people could not so easily run to the city
by rail.
Business letters were more vcluminous
and formal, and were written in precise,
round hand.
There was York currency, eight shillings
TO the dollar, and New England currency,
six shillIngs to the dollar.
The diet was more subcharged with grease,
the winter breakfast usually being made Of
sailed ham and hot cakes.
Dinner was simply hasty lunch at noon,
and little importance was attached 10 the
necessity FOR good digestion or period OF
rest after eating.
New Orleans and muscovado molasses,
very black and thin, was The common sweet
ening for buckwheat cakes. Refined molas-
ses was almost unknown.
The bank bills were of State banks, and
the further West their locality the shaker
they were. Illinois and Indiana bills would
barely pass In New York.
Bread was home made. Coffee was freshly
ground every morning, and the grinding of
the family coffee mill was familiar sound
hours before the children arose.
Negro minstrelsy was just cropping out In
the travelling circus. There were generally
but two performers, who assumed male and
female characters. The popular melody was
Jump, Jim Crow"
People did not live as long as they now
do, nor was the average health as good as at
present. They ate more meat, more grease,
more hot bread, and more heavy dishes, and
drank more mt meals.
