ROYAL Gastronomy.
From the Gentleman's Magazine.

From the Gentlemans Magazine.
At the royal table all dishes are
marked with the name of the cook--a
custom which certainly affords an OPP
portunity of winning fame if a ,particeu-
lar cook possesses superior skill to his
fellows. The custom originated with
George H., who on his way to his Ger
man dominions was deprived, through
sea-sickness, of the services of his prin-
cipal cook. 1t, therefore, fell to the lot
of Weston, an assistant cook, to pre-
pare particular soup of which his
majesty was very fond, and this he did
SO successfully that on the death of his
superior the King appointed him in his
stead. This naturally caused heart
burnings among Weston's fellows, and
when any dish was found fault with
they ascribed its concoction to him.
The King shrewdly suspected the cheat
they were attempting, and ordered
each cook in future to mark the dish he
prepared with his name. This vindi-
Gated Weston and established very
good custom.

SO proposed to the girl. She
told him that the chances were the best

cling to him. Cling she did. Young
Van Antwerp came to this city and be-

son, Hinkle & Co., as bookkeeper. Ul-
timately he became the head of it's sue

time he returned to his native city, and
when he did he found that the girl he
had loved wa still the wife of the car

STYLES in Stationery.

There is little change in the style of
stationery this fall and few novelties
have been introduced, owing, perhaps,
to the almost unlimited variety IN the
market, as we'll as to the exhaustion OF
designers inventiveness. The law, of
choice governing selection in the be-
wildering and heterogeneous assortment
is simply personal preference. Fer
haps the latest and only really new
note paper is a square sheet OF satin
finished linen in hint Of a tint OF blue,
green, or violet, with long envelope
which receives the sheet by once fold
ing, complete reversal of the popular
square envelope and rectangular sneet
The popularity of this paper is IN Its
shape, tint, and finish, which gives an
appearance of being striped IN fne
lines barred at regular intervals with
more decided line. The square sheet
is called the Gladstone, and may be
found in other varieties of paper. very
small sheets of note paper that 60 INTO
the envelope without being folded at all
are considered quite the correct ana
proper thing in note paper, ana an
equally whimsical and popular fashion
is the use of an extremely large sheet
of thin paper folded and refolded to Int
the tiniest envelopes used.
Another fancy is for long, legal
looking envelope; which receives the
paper, when folded, lengthwise.
Ellen Terry has set the seal OF APP
proval on an extremely English style of
note paper called the Bond station
cry" It is very thin, tinted decided
cream, and resembles the parchment
upon which etchings are traced. 1t is
plain and small embellished with no
monogram or crest, and is as peculiar
and striking as the chirography with
which the noted lady adorns it.
Mrs. Langtrv affects a large, square
envelope of the heaviest linen, smooth
in finish, with sheet of equally heavy
paper, tinted in pale blue, with her adj
dress plainly set in scarlet letters at the
head.
Colored paper in dull and delicate
tints is striving for precedent with the
cream tints so long used, but as yet can
boast of no favoritism. Monograms,
initials and crests are in varied metallic
letters, silver, gold and bronzes, and
are,quite as popular as formerly and
shown in infinitesimal variety Of de-
vice and figuring, designed according
to the caprice OF the purchaser, while
the printed address in small colored
letters of red or blue is now, as ever,
universally favored both for it's quiet
elegance and usefulness. The new en-
velopes are long rather than square,
though square ones are still used, and
the flap covers half the envelope before
being cut away to point for sealing.
Visiting cards are still large and Sc
we're, and engraved with exquisite sim
plicity and beauty.-Nea0 York Sun.

termed universal. Not only malaria, but cOnsti-

bility, nervousness and inaction of the kidneys,
are thoroughly relieved by it.
