TABLE MANNERS OF CHILDREN
Importance of Early Training In the Mat.
ter of Eating.

Importance OF Early Training In the Mat
- ter of Eating.
/ cannot dismiss the subject of break
fast, luncheons, dinners and suppers
without few hints on the necessity
of teaching children daintiness in table
manners. The young person is to be
sincerely pitied who has had no careful!
mother, nurse or governess to attend
to this in childhood, that golden time
when learning is SO easy. Men and
women are judged by trifies. After n
rugged backwoodsman has hewn his
way to high place in the councils OF
the country, or perhaps saved 1t in hour
of peril, one may well forgive him il
lie forgets the right way to shake
hands, or doff his hat, or enter a draw
ing-room. But even he will be unfor-
given IL his table manners are untidy
OF offensive. Just here the most ami
nble' of men, Thackerny, drew a sharp
line. "Oh," he signs, ''if only the dear
American girls would not strip the
corn with their white teeth" And
again: "IIow could 1 breakfast with
five women eating with their knives!
j could have stood one but five, all
Mt once!"
In the old times immense importance
was given to the etiquette ut the table,
made more necessary than now, because
the service Il Ia Russo was not in fash
ion, and any moment any man might
be called upon to carve roast or joint.
Then, too, the evening meal was a
perilous affair, to be safely consum-
mated only by the expert. The young
man of revolutionary days was a mar
tyr to the handed" tea; for teacups,
buttered mullins, slices of Sally Lunn
and Clipped beef or shaved ham-these
all, and more, had to be taken care of
upon his trembling knees. Now and
then n plate would crash upon the pol
ished floor and fill the blushing swain
with confusion. Once when n stranger
had won the heart of the tiniest little
maiden of family, and when her
spirit had been sorely tried at hearing
her sable nurse express doubt Us to
whether he was n gentleman, leaning on
Ter fathers knee, and looking earnest
ly into his face, she asked: Papa, is
MT. DaWSon u gentleman wait,
Blossom, until l see him follow the
hounds" replied the squire. But
Nanny Grace says she'll know as soon
as he eats an egg," said the fairy. Sure
enough, he broke Il section from the
shell at breakfast next morning, and
ate the contents with spoon from the
shell itself. That settled 1t. He was
q gentleman.
Children should he taught early to
use their napkins properly, to lay them
on the table without folding, to handle
forks nicely, to use their knives rarely,
never to mix food into great mouth
fuls, to use n bit of bread in the left
hand, to eat soup without 'gurgling,"
to drink without noise, to leave their
plates tidy with knife and fork lying
parallel to each other, 10 leave the
spoons in the teacup, to spill none of
the contents of the cup into the saucer,
and hundreds Of other small but impor-
tant habits.--Mrs. Roger A. Prior, In
the Delfncator.

where the Canaries Come From.

I, a great many of our finest singers
have come from Italy and France, but
until we read 1t in an English news
paper some days ago we never knew
that Germany carries on very large
trade in the rearing and exporting Of
canaries and the largest establishment
In the world for the breeding of these
creatures Is situated within the do
mains of that empire, away up among
the Hartz mountains of Prussia. From
this and the few surrounding but much
smaller nurseries no fewer than 10000
birds are dispatched every year TO the
United States and Canada; while In the
same time at least 1900 go to Great
Britain and about 1000 go to Russia.

separate the churn power from the
rest of the cellar, but If a dog or other
stock power is used for the motor and

should be allowed to enter the cellar,
and to guard against this, heavy cur
tains should be hung at the windows
and tightly closed during the preva-
lence of heavy winds and to shut out
the direct rays of the sun. In the
spring remove all vegetables Us soon

remove at once and do not allow it to

cows actually In milk In the dairy dur
ing the year. AS cows are bought and
sold, not the same 20 cows were in the
herd throughout the year. There are
generally, also, three or four dry cows
in the herd.
From the summary 1t will be seen
that for the number Of COWS actually
in milk, 6,175 pounds of milk were given
per COW. The cost of food per COW was
$37.s3, and the cost of labor was $61.36,
making total expense per COW in milk
nearly 500. The labor, however, in
cluded considerable amount of expcr-
mental work, and also the labor of
taking care of dry cows, heifers, calves
and bulls. 1t also includes the cost Of
retailing the milk. The cost for food
only relates to the cows in milk.
Assuming SO pounds per gallon of
milk. the cost of food per gallon of milk
IL SO cents, the cost of labor per gallon
of milk S.5 cents, while the average price
received for milk on this basis was EOS
cents. 1t will be seen that the average
cost of gallon of milk retailed to con-
sumers was 1877 cents. The real cost,
however, is somewhat greater than
this, because more than SO pounds are
required for gallon of milk when
peddled to the consumers. 1t is worthy
of notice that the work was all done by
students, for which, 1t will be seen,
they received $1,595.44. The gross in
come from each COW actually in milk
was $147.6O, the expens; $o9.1o, leaving
q net income per COW of $4s.61, or, for
herd of 26 cows, a net gain of 81 1885.
