An Early Norman Dinner,

The Saxon dinner arrangements were
oBierly compared with those of the early
Normans, when the halls and passages
were frequently the scene of a free fight
between the servants bringing in the food
and the crowds of hangers on endeavoring
to snatch it from them This nuisance be-
came at length so intolerable that usbers
OF the hail and kitchen were established
by King William Rufus to protect not only
the cooks bringing in the dinner, but the
guests arriving to partake of it. Upon the
occasion of his great feast at Westminster
300 of these officers We're on duty, some to
guard the visitors as they assembled the
steps and others to defend the threatened
dishes
Such was the uncivilized state of society
at this period, but when, later on, the
marauders disappeared from the great
houses, 1t became customary to carry in the
dishes in procession, sometimes preceded
by music and headed by the steward with
his wand of Office. 1t was the duty of al
"asseeur" or placer to arrange them upon
the table; the ewers and napkins with
which to perform their additions were
presented to the guests by the esquires and
pages, while it fell to the lot of the almonel
to say grace.-London Cor. Chicago Herald

The Agricultural Interest.


When the farmers are pros
porous. all the people prosper.
They are the great middle class
the conservators of the nation.
As long as the land is held by
the cultivators, a nation -four
ishes. When it gets into the
hands of capitalists and the
farmer becomes a mere renter,
then trouble begins. This is a
truth as old as the world. The
farmer does right therefore
when he speaks of his high des-
thy. The time is coming when
farmers will control the politics
OF the country. They should
therefore take care Of their
health as individuals. They
are liable as a class to certain
diseases like pneumonia which
are often neglected from the
difficulty Of obtaining medical
attendance in time. If the
farmer will but keep Reid's
German Cough and Kidney
Cure on hand and take it when
ever he is exposed to cold he
will never be troubled with
these complaints. For sale by
all druggists.

The ELECTRIC Light in Mining.

\ great improvement is recorded in the
eyesight of miners, who, by the use of the
electric light, have been saved from the
usual visual strain. The ordinary safety
lamp has been found to be responsible for
the great prevalence of eye diseases, such
as nystagmus, night blindness, etc. and
these no longer obtain where the portable
electric lamps designed especially for min
ing work are employed.
In these the light giving body is highly
protected, very little heat and neither
smoke nor smell is produced. The air IS
thus unvitiat d by noXious fumes, and a
common source of danger, the temptation
to trim the light or to light pipes by it, ID
