A GRAPE DINNER.
Seekers After Special Features in the
Way OF Entertaining.

A formal dinner. with the entire alb
sence of novelty, is often a dread but
IL you help 1t out by specially q g
a certain woman does who is noted Tor
her nice dinners, you will find II robbed
OF the formality that makes 1t ter
ror to hostesses, says the Philadelphia
Times. A grape dinner at this time
Of the year is seasonable, and certain
ly beautiful, and 1t possesses the won
derful advantage OF being no more ex-
pensive and a great deal less trouble
to give than the ordinary formal affair
The woman who originated the crane
dinner had a man 20 serve il. but this
is not necessary. In the center of the
table was a big silver and glass dish
into which were piled grapes of a
deep purple and bright green, with an
abundance of grape leaves upon them.
AS grape leaves are not always easy
to obtain, imitation ones can be sub
sttuted. for the sake of the appearance
OF the dish; but at this time Of the
year trip to the country will give any
one an armful of leaves for the ask
ing. From the dish there extended
grape vines. which led to the four cor
ners Of the table, each terminating
with large bunch of green grapes
The table was set for eight, and un-
der each plate there was dolly in the
form Of a grape leaf. stitched with
green around the edge and veined The
cloth was snow white. as were also the
dishes The guests were served with
grape jelly made in a bunch-of-grapes
mold. This was served with the game.
With roast came grape sorbet thome
made), after which there were ices
and cream in bunch Of grapes form
tinted with pistachio. over the table
punches of grapes were hung from
| the chandeliers.

SHOWER oF STARS.
Rain of Meteoroids Coming with the
Close of the Ger tary.

Baltimore Sun The astronomers
look for the next great meteoric show
er on the morning of Nov. 10. 1899
They calculate that the earth Will then
pass again through the center of an
immense swarm of meteoroids, as they
are called before combustion. These
great "Leonide Star Showers as they
are called, occur at intervals OF every
thirty-three years and one day. The
great shower of 1899 occurred on Nov.
12: that OF 1888 on Nov. l3; that of
1866 on Nov "a; and, consequently, a
repetition OF the next wonderful phe-
nomena is expected on the morning OF
Nov. IS. 1899. In the meantime, how
ever. as the aggregation OF meteoroids
is OF immense length, one end of 1t Will
encounter the earth In 1898 and the
other In 1900, making, as Professor
| Lewis Swift. the distinguished astron-
omer Of Rochester, ~ Y. says, con-
siderable showers In those years also.
Not only this. but It Is stated on the
same authority that many forerunners
OF the great shower may be expected
to come within the earth's atmosphere
on Nov. IA. 1897. because many Of the
meteoroids are always considerably in
advance of the main cluster Profess
sor Swift says: The thickness OF the
meteoroidal stream is 10000 miles,
and the duration of the shower is equal
10 the time OF the diagonal passage Of
the earth through It, usually from
midnight to dawn" He adds: "As
there is a light shower OF Leonids every
November. we know that there is a
vast ring formed by the comets tail,
and that the immense shoal in one
portion is the product of the exploded
comet itself. through which we pass
once every thirty-three years and a
day"

Lewiston (Me) Journal: A Camden
man the other day brought home a
handsome coon cat as a pleasing sur
prise for his wife. II was about 4
o'clock when the cat entered her dwell
ing. and before she had killed the
pet canary. Before she had killed
five chickens, and the next day got
into a neighbors yard and killed some
rabbits. besides whipping every cat
in the neighborhood. Thinking that
the animal was too combative for
home comfort. the gentleman took
pussy to his place Of business. Here
she had a combat with every cat In
the vicinity, and then embarked upon
the steamer NJ. and NJ and paid a visit
TO Castine, but returned on the next
trim OF the steamer. She then strolled
on board the Salacia. and when Port
land was reached went on shore, But
the next Monday. when the steamer
returned 10 Portland, there on the pier
sat Miss Pussy. patiently waiting 10 go
back to her home, where, as soon as
she landed, she expressed her pleasure
by pitching into the first eat she saw

DEFECTIVE pAean MAKLNo.
Deterioration That Has Been Inves.i-
gated Periodically.

Papermakers are discussing the pc
culiar fact that for many centuries
there have been periodical investiga-
tions into the deterioration Of paper"
says the New York Tribune Recently
the Society OF Arts in London appoint
ed a special committee to make an in
vestigation Of this character. Old rec
ords show that fault has been found
with the quality OF paper In almost
every age. and most Of the famous
museums and libraries I'm Europe
have specimens of pure rag paper
which show decay due to flaws in the
texture. Away back in 1896 Peter IT.
of Spain issued a proclamation. com
manding the papermakers Of Valencia
and Xativa "to restore the paper TO
its old good quality unless they wish
to be found guilty Of fraud. and pun
ished accordingly" About 1920 an EN-
peror Of Italy directed that all public
documents on paper should be de-
clar ed invalid. All records covering
the previous two years were ordered
to be transcribed on parchment in or
der that they might be preserved more
securely 1t is recalled that in 1875
the Academy Of Sciences in Paris Of
fered a prize for the best answer to
this question: (which are the real
reasons for the general decline in the
quality Of paper. and which are the
best means to remedy the evil?" This
prize was never awarded, for the rea-
son that nobody undertook to com
pete for II. Experts disagree as to
which period in the history of paper
making produced the most durable
and the best quality Of paper. Soon
after the art of making paper was
tranEplanted from Africa to Spain
complaints were made and recorded
that the Christian successors of the
Moorish papermakers were making an
inferior paper. At FIRST the art was
lmperfectly copied.

at an Advanced Age.


at an Advanced Age.
Argonaut Sir Isaac Holden, the in
ventor of the lucifer match, died re-
Gently in England at the age OF 81.
Though he did not profit by the inven-
tion, others, especially in woolen ma
chinery gave him a large fortune. He
set out comparatively early in life to
live as long as possible. In the mat
ter of exercise his rule was to spend
at least two hours day in the open
air. and 1t is told of him that on first
going TO work in his youth, he agreed
with his employer that instead of hay-
ing yearly vacation he should have
an hour every afternoon In which to
take a walk In the use of alcohol
he was abstemious, yet not total alb
stainer. and he smoked tobacco mod
erately. In diet his chief popularity
was that he avoided bread. His chief
foods In his later years were meats,
soups and fruits. Yet he was not a
man who lived by invarlable rules, for
he was long a member OF the house OF
commons. and when over so years old
he saw the sessions out at 2. 3 and 4
o'clock In the morning, and smoked
long cigars in the smoking room.
