LONDON, July THE actors OF Lon.
don have recently provided many free
shows in the law courts, which have
been largely attended. For instance, an
action brought by the discharged con.
ductor of the orchestra of the Lyric
Theatre was commenced on Wednesday
last before Justice Stirling. The testi-
uony presented revealed many secrets
.onnected with that theatre. The trou-
Me all arose through the refusal OF May
Yohe, the American burlesquer. who has,
upon more than one occasion. been re-
ported to have married Lord Hope. re-
fusing to be bound by the ordinary rules
Of the establishment. Finally, Lord
Hope made 1t a sine qua non that the
conductor should be discharged or May
Yohe would leave. The conductor went
and the lawsuit followed.

THE AGREEABLE GUEST.

From Harper's BI2ar,
house, the first thing in order is to
decide whether or not she can go
II, on consideration and review of
existing and anticipated engage
ments, it seems that the invitation
can he accepted, it should on no
account be lightly thrown over in
favor of some later suggestion which
offers a more tempting prospect. An
invitation to Il friends house is
always 4 compliment, and should be
so esteemed. Whether it be for a
single meal or for days, for an infor-
mai tea or a ceremonious dinner, the
fact that one is asked shows that
one is wanted. Some persons hold
social engagements by Il very
tenuous thread, and apparently feel
1T liberty to modify OF break them
according to moods and caprices,
but to do this is not good form, and
is Al indication OF selfish disregard
for the convenience of others. To
make thoughtful arrangements
toward entertaining a guest, and
then, at the last moment, to receive
a telegram or q letter explaining
that the guest is not Comiug,. after
all, is a common but very d%isappoint-
ing experience. Illness or calamity
is, of course, a sufficient excuse for
alteration of plans, but nothing less
can be cOndOned i'll the woman who
aspircs to a reputation for good
manners.
The invitation having en- ac-
cepted, it is well to let the length OF
the contemplated visit be definitely
prescribed. Both hostess and guest
VIII proceed more iutelligently, and,
the whole, moro comfortably, if
it lie understood on both sides
whether the visit be of a days, a
weeks, or a fortnight's length.
In ease of a protracted visit, where
the guest fits into the family life, she
needs, even more than in a briefer
stay, to observe carefully all the
conventionalitios, often eifacirg her
self, so To speak, and Withdrawing
from the household, that they may
have their W opportunity for pri-
vacy. ln the shortest visit a guest
does well occasionally to stay awhile
by herself, that the family may ar
range their own occupations or carry
on their talk without her Intrusion.

KISS HER AND TELL HER so.

Mary j. Holmes in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal, in anwer to the question ''What Con
stitutes A Good Husband"
Integrity OF character, a right
sense of honor, m~anliness and re-
spect for what is pure and good are
all adjuncts to the perfect happiness
of married life. But most natures crave
more than these, and what they
is so easy to give that | wonder it is
ever withheld. Said a woman of her
husband who, when living, stood
with his fellow-men and surrounded
her with every luxury: 81 loved
him most for his kind thoughtfulness
aud delicate attentions which made
me feel that I was as dear to him
after years of marriage as on the
first day he called me wife" And
this | think, is the secret of some
women's happiness.
1t is not enough fora man to make
Il woman his wife, and after few
weeks or months of attention ignore
her with a feeling that because he
has chosen her to bear his name she
must be forever satisfied with no
further demonstration of his love.
Women like demonstrations, and
there is a world of good advice In
the two lines of an old ballad | lately
read:
IN your wife is dearcr To you than life,
KISS her and tell her So"

THE HISTORY OF THE SPOON.


From Good uouseLeeper. E
The spoon must date back to a
very ancient epoch, for although It
is always possible to eat solid food
with the fingers-a very ancient and
very natural practice-the same is
not the case with n liquid or semi
solid ailment, and 1t is not possible
that the famous Lacedonian black
broth was consumed otherwise than
with a sort of spoon. Moreover,
spoons have been found at Pompeii
and in several excavations, and
notably in the famous treasury OF
H~ildeshein. In a more remoter
antiquity the Egyptians, in the seven
teenth century before the Christian
era, used spoon for mixing certain
powders with beverages. These
spoons, of which quite n number r
in existence, were remarkable for
their generally fine and very rich
ornamentation. The museum of the
Louvre possesses several of them.
The use of spoons in France was
not generally adopted until toward
the end of the fourteenth century,
but there is a question of this in the
will of Saint Remi, who baptized
Clovis in 496. The use of the knife
is very ancient and the first that we
know of were of hard stone. Herod-
otus tells us that the knives used by
the Egyptian surgeons were likewise
of stone. Yet the use of the knife
among us as a table utensil does not
date back TO a very ancient epoch.
Although there was a famous cutlery
works at Beauvis in the tenth cen
fury, it does not appear that the
knife was much used upon the table.
AT this epoch, and for q very long
time, the blade was fixed and in
closed in a sheath. 1t is not two
centuries since the use of clasp
knives became common. The tables
were not provided with them and
each person carried his own. This
custom has been preserved even in
our day in some distant provinces by
old men, who, when they go to dine
out, take their knife from their
pocket and use it skillfully during
the whole course of the meal. Such
are evidently exceptions, which are
-
daily tending to disappear, yet they
serve to show the rarity of the knife
to within a short period upon the
tables of persons belonging to the
lower class.

THE GOATS PLACE.

N. $. Shalcr, In Scribner.
The relations OF the goat to man.
kind are in certain ways peculiar.
The creature has long been subju-
gated, probably having come into
the human family before the dawn
of history. 1t has been almost as
widely disseminated, among bar
barian and civilized peoples alike, as
the sheep. 1t readily cleaves to the
household, and exhibits much more
intelligence than the other members
of our locks and herds. 1t yields
good milk the flesh is edible, though
in the old animals o savory, and
the hair Il be made to vary in a
larger measure than any of our ami
mails which are shorn. Yet this
creature has new n obtained the place
in relation to man to which it seems
entitled.

OLD AGE AND MATRLMONY.

From the New York Home journal.
When he was considered quite an
old MAJ James Lord Balcarres went
to stay with old Lady Keith. There
were a number of young ladies in
the house, and before he arrived
Lady Keith said to them: "Now,
there is this Old gentleman coming
10 stay, and | particularly wish that
! you should all endeavor to make
yourselves az pleasant to him az you
can. They all agreed to do SO, but n
Miss Dalrymple said: "You may
all do what you like, but I'll bet you
anything that you please that I'll
make the old gentleman like me the
best Of us all.n And SO she did she
made him perfectly devoted to her
all the time he was there; yet when
he ask her to marry him she laughed
in his face. Lord Balcarres was
exceedingly crestfall IL, but when he
went away he made a will settling
everything he could upon Miss
Dalrymple. Somehow she heard of
this and said: "Tnen, after all, he
must really care for me and | will
marry him." and she did. He was
SO then, but they had ten children.

RED HAIRED WOMEN.

From the Post Dispatch. ?
If women with red hair would only
study how to use it becomingly, they
would be proud of the distinction of
having it, instead of dissatisfied
with their fate. The Q seems to be a
general impression among women
with red hair that almost any shade
of blue can be worn by them, be-
cause, as a usual thing, they have
fair and delicate compilations. But,
as a matter of fact, blue is the one
color above all others that they
ought to avoid. The contrast is too
violent, and the combination is not
harmonious.

VICTORY IN THE AIR.

From the Bowling Green Times.
In three counties of Missouri
where democratic primary elections
have recently been held, the excess
of votes cast over those polled at
similar elections in 1892 was as
follows: In Clay county, $50; in
Monroe county, 300; in Boone
county, 200. These are counties
which have large democratic ma
jorities, and these evidences of
aroused enthusiasm and interest
shows that the next election in this
ct tie will be another clean demo-
cratic sweep.

Not many politicians of the present
period know aught concerning the
first state legislature, which con-
vened in st. Charles in June, 1921,
after a preliminary territorial session
the previous year in st. Louis. The
records of that session were burned
with the rest of the records in 1886,
but from various sources the assist
ants to the secretary of state have
CLEANED scraps of information which
will make, when complied, a con-
sistent whole, forming a valuable
leaf in state history.
The senate at that time consisted
of sixteen members. They we're:
Duff Green, Bennett Clark, b. H.
Reeves, A, j. Williams, David Jones,
Ben Young, James Talbot, William
Biggs, Benjamin Emmons, j, S. Ball,
James McAllister, Samuel Perry,
Joseph Bogg, David Logan, Ambrose
Byrd and Alex. Buckner. In the
list are names that are still familiar
although many are quite forgotten.
The laws enacted by the first state
assembly at St. Charles were few in
humber. They were intended to
bring about a settled and permanent
Norm OF state government and to

Among the frcquent"rs of legisla-
tive halls in the eally days, when
hunting shirts and buckskin ieggings
were considered equipment fashion,
able enough for n lawmaker, was
Jonathan Bryan, who built the first
water mill in Missouri. 1t was stu
ated on a small spring branch that
empties into Femme Usage creek in
st. Charles county. 1t was built in
1901. The mill would grind from
six to ten bushels of grain in twenty
four hours. For several years it
supplied the settlements from St.
c sri.s Ia Loutre Island with, mea,
t 81 II ut, the same stones grinding
30 10 hcat and corn. The flour was
ly., d box, by hand. Mr.. Bryan
W ada fiji the hopper with grain in
the morning, and the mill would
grind on hat until noon, when the
hopper would be filed again. The
meal ran into a large pewter basin
which sat on the floor at the bottom
of the stones.
An amusing story is told in this
connection. When the mill was
started Daniel Boone was living with
his o Nathan OF the old Boone
farm, distant about a mile from the
mill. Boone owned a dog named
"Cuff' that used to go to the mill in
Mr.. Bryan's absence and lick the
meal out of the basin as fast as it
ran from the spout. When it did not
run fast enough to suit him he would
sit down and howl and bark. This
reprehensible habit ultimately caused
him grief. Bryan discovered where
his meal had been going and he
changed the pewter basin for a tin
coffee pot too small for he dogs
head.

consider than those which confront
the thirty seventh assembly, now
leisurely Willing away days that cost
the state $4,000 from sun to sun.
Then the west vas a great, though
comparatively unknown, empire, and
the greater portion of Missouri was n
vast hunting ground.
The constitution had made liberal
provisions for remunerating the gov
ernor and supreme and circuit Judges;
but the state legislature, when it
met in st. Charles, took early occasion
to reduce the salaries of these officers
to a very low figure. The stringency
of the times demanded this action.
The salary of the governor vas fixed
at 1900 a year, while the supreme
Judges were allowed 81, 100 and the
circuit judges $1,000 each. 1t was
generally feared that this reduction
of salaries would prevent men of
ability from seeking the positions,
and that inferior officials would slip
in to the detriment of public service,
but at the next election it is said
there was as great a sCrambling for
office as there had been at the pre-
ceding one when the large salaries
fixed by the constitution served as
an incentive to oilice-scekers, The
salaries mentioned seem small and
insignificant now. They would hardly
support the family of Il mechanic.
But for those primitive times they
were more than sufficient. Any
family of ordinary size could ther
live in considerable style on 5000 6
year. They had hard money ant
hard times then, and everything wa,
cheap. Living vas not the serious
problem of to-day, and the hardy
legislator who got behind with his
landlord could obtain a leave OF
absence for one day from the house
or senate, shoulder his gun and enter
the forest, returning at night with
enough game to insure his bill run
