The History of the Fork.

1t is 900 years ago since the fork made
its first appearance in Europe. Like man.
it was born a featherless biped, and eacn
has worked out his own evolution, the
man into being on two legs and two
wheels, while the fork has developed extra
prongs.
In 995 A. D., son Of the doge Pietro
Osceolo had welded in Venice the By
zantine princess Anglia, who was able to
allude casually in conversation to 'tmy
brother, the emperor of the east Roman
empire" Her name means clay, but her
nature favored the precious metals, for she
produced at the wedding breakfast a silver
fork and gold spoon. Then the high
Venetian families followed suit though
the church denounced it as an insult to
Providence, and the social Tories of the
day cried, "Ex Oriente tabes," decay
comes from the east.) Meanwhile the mar
tyrs to fashion pricked their lips and hurt
their teeth and used language with bated
breath. The fork prospered, however.
Three hundred and sixty years later it had
reached Florence and spread over Italy.
In 1879 it had travelled as far as France,
and I'm 1905" says the same authority,
the traveller Corgate brought it direct
from Verioe to England years in
coming! Tant@ molis erat to persuade
the nations not to put their knives into
their mouths.

Elegance and Comlorr on the $ unset Linn
tied Trains of tho Southern Pacific Conn
pany.
The poetry of motion is realized when
riding in the elegant cars that compose
the Sunset Limited train of the South
ern Pacific company which runs semi
weekly over the Sunset route between
New Orleans and San Francisco. The
delightful experience of a host of peo-
pie who travelled by this route last sea-
son and their praises of the Sunset Linn
tied would fill volume, and acting on
some OF the suggestions received (oy
requesD from lady patrons, the man
| agement have surpassed all previous
efforts 10 combine elegance with COM
| fort in the makeup of train. THESE
efforts have reduced the inconvenience
and irksomeness Of travel to a MIMI
mum. While gentlemen can enjoy their
| lounging and smoking room in the COM
posite car (Which also has barber
shop and bath ROOM, the ladies have
their parlor in one end of the compart-
ment sleeping car, where there are
couches, easy chairs, writing facilities
and well stocked library with the lat
est magazines. These cars, with two
ten-section double drawing room sleep
