using their eyes, the nature of the viandS

need for bills Of fare; but now that the fash
ion of dining la RuSSe has been generally
adopted, it becomes necessary that each guest
should he provided with sort of programme
of the dinner.

on large cards gaudily ornamented with gas
tronomic emblemS and symbols, and were of

only one could he placed at each end of the
table. The size of the cards was gradually
diminished, and as they got smaller, the
number put on the table was multiplied. At
the present time il is customary to provide
each guest with a printed menu. The intro

bill Of fare has proved very profitable to the
