FRENCH MENUS.
rhex Are q Thing of the PAST anu
ENGLISH II Now USED.


A gentleman who had noted the ten.
dency upon the part OF the restauiat1Ssu ..ls
Of late to have their menu entlrelH III tns
lsh, asked one Of them what or9ugniT aoot
,ras the nonular form for every menu IN
f;rst class establishments. He said:
"A change of time and a change or TASTE;
There was a time when restaurants couio
charge very big prices. 1t was IN go9d tlmes;
and neople didn't care much what they pald
60 THAT the service was up to the very pest.
ri we nut the bill Of fare in FRENCH as
aentie dccention. Few could read French,
and when thew ordered pommes dc terre
thev were under the impression they were
eetfinr a French dish W hen, in fact, they
we're getting plain everyday murphles with
wy ii remember many funny cases. At one
time T had a couple of young people at
fable and at the close of the meal they or
dered cafe all lait, just because 1t brought up
the close of the menu. When they We're
served with coffee and cream they were
surprised, and the waiter said the glrl said
to her beau: We'll, know enough Frenen
now to know that KAT aw layit is coffee Zen, II
won't take me long to learn FRENCH "'i'e'
Another thing. In the old days the
French was gentle deception. A man who
ordered pommes de terre, say, was Wiling
to nav a quarter for them, but he would have
kicked like mule to be called upon to pay
that much for potatoes. People are eating
roast beef and beefsteak now, and French
dishes don't 90. l guess the nation IS get
ting more and more to have pride IN Amer
len and all things that are American. -Cln'

never give her up while we both live!'
The old mans eyes glittered, faint
color had risen into his withered
cheeks, as he rose and grasped both his
nephew's hands as in a wise.
You're trump, Harry Wade!" said
he. Il respect you more at this minute
than ever did before. Give her up, i'll
deed! If you gave up that little jewel
of a girl you would give up the beacon
star of your existence. She is pearl
of price, Harry-a true and noble wom-
| an, who wouldn't have hesitated to
sacrifice herself for your benefit Marry
her tomorrow if you will and bring
her right here to Bentley Grange. 1t
shall be her home and yours hencefor-
ward"
And in this strange and sudden way,
old Brande Bentley relented and took
his niecc-in-law-elcct into his heart.
Bessie in all the flush of her rosebud
beauty could never have melted his
l,eart, but Bessie stricken down by God
became sacred and precious in his sight
They were married and came to the
Grange, and the prettiest of all sights
is the blind bride walking up and down
the long, stone-paved terrace upon her
husbands arm, with Uncle Brande for
ever lowering beside her.
II never had daughter sid Uncle
Erande. "but if I had think I should
have felt toward her as I feel toward

silence for a moment.

All was silence for a moment
Then loud, shrill shrek rent the startled
air. There was the sound of heavy body
falling, a crashing of timbers, a noise as Of
sinful spirits wailing in despair. A chain
creaked dismally and then parted with 4
dead, metallic snap. Staggering backward,
he fell against the washstand. The bowl
and pitcher fell in confused mass of brol cn
crockery upon the floor, while the water
Hooded the ROOM
Again he advanced to the attack, and the
black-browed monster bent slightly forward
and cast him full length upon the floor.
BLOOD. gushed from his wounds, but he
lleaped again to the attack. With loud curses
he grappled with the demon. His garments
were torn in a hundred places. One eye was
black. and blue! The other was blue and
black! But still, he kept up the fearful
combat: At length, when nearly exhausted,
with his life blood slowly oozing from a
thousand wounds and his breath coming in
short, painful gasps, he won! The dread
monster lay wide open before him.
.'There!" he said. as he wiped the drops
of perspiration from his brow. "There! It's
a cold day when 1 can't open folding bed!"

"GOOD OLD TIMES"

My grandsire tells Of the good old times,
And stops now and then to sigh;
For he says that this era Of frauds and
crimes
Makes him yearn for the days gone by.
And he makes ME feel, while the tear drops
steal
To my eyes as mourn my fate,
That my ill-starred birth brought me onto
this earth
A decade or SO too late.
He tells Of the actors who trod the stage
They didn't need scenery then
And it does him good to recall the rage
OF some eminent public men.
'People didn't neglect to display respect
Deliberate and profound,
And they'd never waste in unseemly haste
Their energies getting round"
Yet the world is moving and toiling still,
And loving and laughing, too;
And honest purpose bends with will
To the work that it finds to do.
And mighty men WELD the sword and pen,
And the lightning leaps forth to bear
Each truth in turn that the world may
learn
Its lesson from everywhere.
And so, as think it occurs to me
That some day my turn will come,
When on bygone glories with comments
I'll make my posterity glum.
I'll tell him some day when my srandsire
gray
Ger those good old times may moan,
That these We'll find when they're left be-
hind
Are the best old times vet known.

his face indicated a mind given to much pro-

However, with butter in view, she bega',

hostess; II went through agonies to prove
that was deeply, interested in butter, but
it was all in vain"
"Butter!'' exclaimed the hostess. "What

written book on Buddha, and knew how
deeply you two were interested in the same
subject"
And they said in chorus: "Gracious!"-

Only, December 18th.
Lovers of good band music have a
rare treat in store, as this is said to be
the most magnificent band in the coun-
try. 1t is composed of twenty-four
pieces, and have associated with them
Daisy Ogden, the celebrated child cor
netist. Miss Ogden is an artist of ex-
ceptionally high grade. Her modest
bearing as she steps upon the stage
at once makes the most favorable
impression on her audience. Her ar
tistic temperament is most thoroughly
revealed in her playing. The shading,
the technique, the expression, all blend
ing and producing perfect interpreta-
ton of the composers work. Miss Og-
den is great favorite with the musical
public and has made a host Of friends
every season. She is a pupil of Signor
Rocamora, who was a most accom-
plished performer on the cornet.
