l am reminded of an incident on one Of
the Atlantic steamers which took place not
so long ago, and in which married member
of family to whom it is not necessary to
allude was a party. The husband and wife
appeared at all meals, fanked on either side
by large dish Of butter.
AS it was an English ship and butter was
not served at any Of the meals, some Ameri-
cans who were neighbors were delighted to
see that the hor 'oeuvre had at last place
on the table. They helped themselves boun'
tifully at luncheon.
At dinner they were surprised to see little
sticks stuck in the middle Of the mound Of
butter with pasteborad card attached.
The card read:
Private Butter. Keep Of the Grass"
1t is needless to say that the hint was
taken.-N. Y. journal.
