Peculiar Table Customs.

In a book entitled domestic Man
ners of the Middle Ages we are told
that in those days dinner tables were
covered by "nappe," or tablecloth
Upon it were placed large saltcellar,
bread and cups for wine, but no knives
or plates. The reason for the absence
of the knives arose from the common
practice in vogue of people carrying
their own knives in sheath attached
to their girdle. .....
In an early work, written by Lyd-
gate-"Rules For Behavior at Table,
the guests are told to bring no knives
unsecured to the table, which can only
mean that each one was to keep his
own knife-that is, the one he carried
with him-clean.

became unconscious and did not regain
consciousness after that time. The
archbishops illness really dated from
the end of February, when, in going
through the Kelly Memorial chapel, in
course of construction at the rear of
the cathedral, he fell between some
beams, and to keep himself from fall
ing to the floor below he had to hold
himself up by the armpits for some
time before he was helped out.

college there when it was opened. He
devoted two years to the preliminary
studies Of the college and then began
the study of theology.

Notifying the God.

One of the odd things the visitor to
Burma will notice is the large number
of bells about the pagodas. These bells
are usually hung on sacred posts a few
feet above the ground.
They are sweet toned, as all Burmese
bells are. but they are not furnished
with tongues. The worshiper who
comes to pray before the pagoda
strikes one of these bells with wood
en- mallet. This is to attract the atten-
ton of the god.
