Here is a curious extract from the
court regulations of the IIofburg for
the year 1874 on the etiquette to be oh
served by officers when invited to th.
royal table. The regulation begins hy
stating that officers usually behave an
der such circumstances with great DO
likeness and good breeding. like true
and worthy cavaliers" but that the
emperor Ihinks it necessary to issue
the following directions for the use of
, inexperienced cadets:
81. Officers should come to the palace
handsomely dressed and not enter the
room in IL half drunken state
''2. Wien they are at table they
should hot rock about on their chairs
nor sit back and stretch out their legs.
"33. They should not drink after each
mouthful, as by so doing they will very
soon get drunk. nor drink more than
half a glass ut time and before
drinking they should wipe their lips
and mOuStachioS.
Il They should not put their hands
In the dishes nor throw bones under
the table.
-. They should not lick their fin
gers nor drink so brutally as to fall off
their chairs

Nottingham is engaged in the farm

a tract Of 900 acres with its sewage.
The crops grown consist Of wkeat, oats,

the enormous resources of the land
when used in this way by the fact that,
although but 660 of the 90Oacres are I'M
