A "REMINISCENCES.

The death Of Milton Hay. OF Spring
field, III, is an event merely because he
was once the law partner of Abraham
Lincoln.
Tae figure of Lincoln looms up so
Grandly against the background of con-
temporary history that the American
people are interested In everything that
recalls his personality. This is only
right. 1t Is well to cherish the memory
of our great men and OF the stirring
times they rendered memorable.
AS We recall those days and turn to
the contrasts OF the present 1t looks
II we were living not merely amid
smaller issues, but amid smaller men.
Is 1t possible that we are turning out
a smaller size of statesman than for

Ii certainly looks like It. The pres
ent session OF Congress-as an illustra-
tion-has not developed any noteworthy
stat.smanshir. The Senate debate on
silver repeal Will not compare with GER

body. The schoolboy OF the next gen

The Dinner T,aby..

The fashion of decorating the dining
table is not modern one, but is the re-.
vival Of an ancient custom. Old French
tables OF any pretension to elegance
were adorned with permanent centre
pieces called surtouts. made of rlas.
and silver mounted From thes.
branched silver and gilt candelabra- tinv
statuettes. or other ornamental proiec.
tions.
This style of decoration was supersed-
ed by round or square foundation 81
potters' clay, in which flowers were
planted in formal designs. More elabo-
rate table ornamentation consisted A.,
bridges, fortresses. temples and en-
blematical groups of figures, all
deftly fashioned out of sort
OF paste. The present taste re-.
sarding the decorating of tabIes
are scarcely less simple, though they pro-
duce less prodigious effect The ex-
quisitely embroidered squares of linen
probably represent more skill of handi-
craft and certainly greater refinement
OF taste than the gold and silver and
plaster OF our ancestors.
