Eating Off Gold.

Mrs. Astor's supper to twenty of her
intimate friends was given Monday
night. On this occasion the famous
service of solid gold was used. These
yellow dishes are seldom brought out
from the Astor vault. They cost $780,
900, it is said, though have heard the
figures exaggerated to $3.50, Goo Any
how there is no great extravaganza in
them, for the metal can at any time be
melted into good bullion and only the
workmanship lost. have attended
many of the Astor entertainments, but
never one when the gold utensils were
displayed. A friend who has had that
inestimable privilege declared that she
didn't enjoy the experience very much,

elm the first place." she said, s.the
eatables were completely overcome and
dominated by. the plates on which they
were served. The daintiest morseis
seemed to have no flavor at all, and
after while l fancied that they became
impregnated with peculiar metallic
taste. And then got it into my head
that the man sitting opposite me was
detective in disguise, placed there to
see that I didn't slip a plate into nv
bodice. He was afterwards introduced
to me, and l had reason to believe that
his covert glances had been purely SEN
timental, but they spoiled my supper
all the same. No, thank you, fine china

A SUDDEN DISAPPEARANCE.

How q Whole villageful of Children Ran
Away.
One bright summer morning, over
forty years ago, little village in North
western Ohio was in great state of ex-
element because every child in the vii
lage had suddenly disappeared before
breakfast. There was reason for I'M
easiness, for it was new country, and
the fears of the parents suggested
wolves, bears. or even Indians, though
they saw no signs of them. Where
could the children have gomez Had
they fallen into the creek, or into the big
end of each housed Each father ran to
the creek, and each mother peered into
her water trough; but no children
were to be found. They hadn't gone to
the neighbors, for all were alike bereft
There were wringing of hands, and
hurrying of feet, and shouting, and gen.
eral bewilderment. until Mrs. Forrest
said she saw the marks of little, bare
feet in the sand. Then all the fathers
started to follow the tracks, and all the
mothers hurried to get breakfast, for
they knew the little folks would be very
hungry when they came home, which
would surely be very soon.
The tracks led along the hot, sandy
road, and the swift feet of the men
gained upon the wayering steps of the
little wanderers. They would soon be
in sight. the men said to each other rs
they hurried along.
Yes, after half mile had been passed
they paused on the brow of little hill,
and saw in the hollow the lost children.
Then half of the fathers shouted
MARY" and all the little girls stopped
and hooked back; and half the fathers
shouted Henry" and all the boys
stopped and looked back; and then both
boys and girls began to run, but were
SOON caught by the fathers, who, now
that they were no longer afraid that
something dreadful had happened, grew
angry and began to shake and scold
the children.
Where were you goinga" asked ono
father.
Ito dranpa's," said Henry.
ITO dranpa's," lisped Mary
Which Henryp Why, there was but
one. And was there but one Msryp
Only one Those two were all the chill
dren there were in the whole village.
And how big was the village? 1t had
Just two houses and a post-office. One
house was of rough logs, and this was
Henry's home. The other was board
"'lean-to," that was to be the kitchen
to bigger house, some say, when Mr.
Forrest got richer, and that was Mary's
home.
The post-office was post with box
on the top. When the mail-carrier
came through the village every two
weeks he left the mail in the box. The
whole village went out and helped
themselves to their letters and papers.
The two fathers made the children
walk home, although Mary was mot
quite three years old, and was clad only
in her little night-dress. Henry was a
year older and was dressed.
Mary has forgotten all about it, but
her father says that even after forty
years he is sorry that he did not carry
her home.-Our Little Ones.
