TabuleS

Mr.. j. II. Moon of Harrisburg,
Ark, is justice of the peace
and also owner of the Samson
Stump Extractor for the State
of Arkansas. He had never
noticed the advertisements of
Ripans Tabules, and had no
knowledge IF them, to quote his
own words, until Il read on the
slate from Spirit Side. I then
got one of our druggists to order
some of them. l received the
box of Tabules by mail, which
I have taken acc riding to direc-
tions from the Spirit Side, and
must say that it is one of the
most wonderful medicines for
liver and stomach that I ever
saw. 1 wish these tabules were
in every family.

space in the well of the orchestra at the theatre
in Crescentino. " > 'Aristodemus' was
being performed, and the youthful violinist,

was heard among the must ,!ans. the piece

A fortunate accident, the discovery of
an unuerg1 aduate's account book for
the year 16S2-S, enables us TO trace in
comparatively minute detail the ex-
penses and in some measure the life of
an Oxford student Of no great means at
the close of the seventeenth century.
The undergraduate in question, one
James Wilding, seems to have been q
servitor of ST. Mary Hall, and after
ward became a member of Merton col
lege. The total cost CT his degree, or
rather his total expenses up to the end
of the term III which he took his degree,
were something less than e57, a sum
which might represent III modern values
about three times as much But even
such an expenditure was large co1.. pared
with such cases as that OF Whitfield,
whose popr larlty as a servitor, gained
by his previous experience as tapster,
enabled him to take his degree i'll 1885
at cost to his friends Of less than e24,
and Bishop Wordsworth has recorded
instances where the entire outlay was
even less than that.
Board and lodging, as we have said,
were extremely cheap. Though James
Wilding seems to have lived III Oxford
the whole year round, his total expenses
for chamber rent and food were no more
than e10 for nearly five years His
terminal payments were on a similarly
modest scale. Ten shillings a term was
his tutors fee. Half crown to the bar
Der, As. or 5s. to his bedmaker and laun-
dress, an occasional largess Of sixpence
to the buttery boy and the cook, seem
to have included all Of what we may
term his fixed charges las matricula-
ton cost him Is Cd, his entrance TO
that college 5s., and the fees upon TAX
ing his degree something over e3. -
