On one point at least we may con
gratulate ourselves. and that is on the
improvement in tea table manners
Some old fashioned folk used 10 signal
ize the conclusion of their tea drinking
by turning the cup upside down in the
saucer. In other circles the recognized
sign of a disinclination for more tea was
the placing Of the spoon In the cup in
stead of in the saucer. When the queens
first prime minister, Lord Melbourne,
was lad. residing at Glasgow in the
house Of one Of the university professors
about the end OF the last century he
wrote TO his mother an account Of the
Glasgow table manners.
"We drink healths at dinner" he
writes, "hand round the cake at tea and
put our spoons into our cups when we
desire TO have no more exactly in the
same manner that we used to behave at
Hatfield, at Eton and at Cambridge. -

hidden Treasure OF British Royalty.
King John was both a seeker for and
hider Of treasure. We find him digging
for treasure in Northumberland about
the sites Of the stations on the Roman
wall. and he was reputed to have stores
Of treasure in his favorite strongholds.
Somewhere buried ia the sandy estuaries
Of Lincolnshire are the golden crown
and jewels Of King John. with the chests
Of treasure that were carried in his
train But we speculate. too. about
other hOards. chiefly buried beneath the
foundations Of his castle xvalls. the
secret Of which was lost in the sudden
death OF the greedy king.

cure in all its stages, and that is catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure now known to the medical fraterni-

ease, requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts directly upon the blood and mu-

stroying the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting nature
in doing her work. The proprietors have
