AN ANTIQUARIAN'S DINNER.
what Was Served Was Many Hun.
slreda of Ycnrs OLD

(Boston Cooking School MagaZine)
Perhaps the most remarkable dinner
on record was that given by an anti
quarry named Goebel, In the city Of Blus-
sells. A description Of It Is furnished
by one Of the guests, Mr. Amaziah
Dukes, OF New York:
AT that dinner / ate apples that
ripened more than $500 years ago; brea d
made from wheat grown before the
children Of Israel passed through the
Red Sea, and spread with butter that
was made when Elizabeth was Queen of
England, and washed down the repast
with wine that was old when Columbus
was playing barefoot with the boys OF
Genoa.
The apples were from an earthen jar
taken from the ruins Of Pompeii. The
wheat was taken from a chamber in
one Of the pyramids, the butter from a
stone shelf In an old well in Scotland
where for several centuries It had lain
IN an earthen crock in icy water, and
the vine was recovered from an old
vault in the city Of Corinth.
There We're six guests at the table
and each had q mouthful Of the bread
and teaspoonful Of the wine, but was
permitted to help himself bountifully to
the butter, there belng several pounds
Of It. The apple jar held about two
thirds Of gallon The fruit was sweet
and as finely favored as If it had been
put up yesterday"

quite painful. My appetite was poor. DR.
