ANTIQUITY oE SPOONS.
History Shows That They Have Been
Use for Many Centuries.

History shows FhHt Tney have BeSN II
Use for Many Centuries.
Spoons have been in use for many
centuries; in early times it was the
fashion for all ladies and gentlemen to
have their own spoons and spoon-cases,
which they carried with them wherever
they went. Two hundred years ago we
find frequent mention in the newspapers
of "a lost case containing a Gnife, fork
and silver spoon" The spooN was usu-
ally described as bearing the crest of
the owner upon it's handle, OF picture
of the Blessed Virgin. The apostle
spoons" were dozen of these silver
implements, each containing an image
of one of the apostles in relief upon its
handle; sometimes with and sometimes
without his name. II the name was
omitted, there was usually some en-
blem of the worthy supposed to be
represented on the spoon. In case
emblems were used in place of a
name, st. James would be attired as q
pilgrim; ST. Jude was usually pic
tured with club, the emblem OF
his martyrdom, or with boat to show
his occupations; st. Simon with a saw,

orally with an added oar to show his
earlier tastes. The use of these spoons
as gifts from god-parents to god-children
dates back nearly five hundred years.
When the giver was too poor to present
the whole twelve, he gave ono spoon
with the image OF the patron saint after
whom the child was named, or to whom
he was dedicated, or who was the patron
saint of the donor, not always in such
cases an apostle. The images of the
four Evangelists were often thus used,
the spoons being called "apostle
spoons" although all were not apostles
in the usual meaning of tho word.
Shakespeare, in "Henry VIII.," when
Cranmer declares himself unworthy Of
being sponsor to the young Princess,
makes the King reply: "Come, come,
my lord, you'd spare your spoons" In
plain allusion to the gift expected on
such occasions. The earliest notice we
find in print of this form of spoon is an
entry on the book of the Stationers'
Company, made in the year 1900. 1t is
this entry; "A spoyne Of the gyfte OF
Master Riginold Wolfe, all gylte, with
the picture OF st. john" showing that
''apostle spoons" were we'll known at
that early day."-St. Louis Republic

/ arrived in Barrie on the five p. m.
train, and, after taking tea at very
good hotel, walked out about half mile
from town to call upon a cousin whom
had not seen for great many years.
This cousin (now dead) was a wealthy
lumberer, or rather square-timber man.
ufacturer and dealer. He had, and was
we'll known to have, the habit, very
unusual in business man, of always
carrying in his pocket 'wad" of five
or six hundred dollars in bank bills;
and, although often reasoned with on
t,ge subject, nothing could induce him
to abandon this curious custom. If the
amount of his 'wad" ever got below
five hundred dollars, he would imme-
diately replenish it. He said he always
felt better with money in his pocket.
Most anybody would. / spent very
pleasant evening with him, talking over
old times, etc, and did not get away
until midnight. Now this gentleman's
house was on the crest of a hill, with
garden and orchard extending down
the slope toward the town. just at the
corner of the orchard there was hollow
or depression in the ground, and, while
the sidewalks on either side of the road
were built on the original surface, the
causeway or road itself had been raised
to the extent of five feet or SO.
AS, quietly smoking a cigar, I slowly
walked along on one of these sidewalks,
some one, apparently half drunk, sitting
in the deep shade of largo tree on the
other side of the road hailed me in
gruff, unsteady voice:
'S-s.say, mate, will you give fell
fellow match?"
Thinking this was probably some in
toxicated laborer, who was really suf-
Sering for smoke, replied:
''Yes, come across and Tll give you
one"
"No, mate, I can-can-can't git up.
You fetch it to me; that's goo-goo-
good man."
To this cool request answered
rather sharply: "If you want a light
come and get it, or go without"
