The means employed clubs have always
good toast Some club men leave wire
ana child and home and seek Pail Mall,
less for the company or the cellar tnan
for the toast to- be obtained there, such
is it's fascination.
Hotels. TOO. usually have good toast,
bul the supply is seldom sufficient
Hence The order of an experienced
traveller when breakfasting at an inn:
waiter. be perpetually bringing up
fresh toast
The best accompaniment to toast is
butter which should not he spread
upon the piece but applied TO each

sol-.al virtues of butter more success

one might almost say that violence is
committed when marmalade is allied
20 it, or potted meat.
Toast sandwiches are made in many
different ways among the most distln-
guished being those containing cucum-

I horrible degradation of a great idea
than buttered toast lis of toast. Every
great quality of toast is turned into its
opposite ana contradictory, in buJtered
Joast-lightness into heaviness. crisp
ness into sWashy habbiness, fragrance
into @ sort of brOoding butter-maiaria,
u0ntine marsh of butter. But
tered toast is the Pickwicks fat boy of
yictuals.'
True But. granting all this. does
not a sirEularly seductive food remain?
Toast and buttered toast are as distinct
as the raceborse and the cartEOrse, and
both alike are admirable in different
ways.
Different persons favor different
shapes iu hot buJtered toast Some cut
triangular pieces other square; some
divide the slice into four, others into
two This is matter of personal pre-
election but positive sin is committed
when the crUsts are not cut on.
