SINGULAR MAxlMS.
old Time Rules For the Table by the
German Poet Won ZirkIer.

That our ancestors were not so well
managed as we are is evident from the
following rules, which were laid down
by Tommasin Won Zirkler, a German
poet, in regard to the conduct Of host
and his guest at a dinner party. These
singular maxims were recently un-
earthed and have now been reprinted:
EVERY host should take care that
his guests have enough to eat and that
they are not served with dishes that
they do not want. In return the guests
should behave properly and should be
satisfied with whatever is placed be-
fore them.
"a guest should not eat all his bread
before the first dishes are served, nei-
driy nor talk when his mouth is full.
1t Is not polite to turn toward ones
neighbor and to offer him a winecup
from which one is still drinking.
zone should not eat greedily and
hastily, as though the dinner had been
paid for, neither should one take any
food from his neighbors plate. In a
word, eacn person should accept wnat
Is offered and ask for nothing else.
when there is some one on the right
hand, 1t is permissible to eat with the
left hand.
while one Is drinking the eyes
should be steadily fixed on the wine
cup.
"It is improper to place ones hand in
a dish while another person Is taking
some food from 1t.
Zone should always have the hands
clean and the nails cut short, as other
wise those persons who are eating from
the same dish are likely to become dis
gusted.
"a guest should never put his ell
bows on the table. neither should he
chatter all the time nor clean his teeth
with a nife."-Chicago Herald.

The same style of elbow sleeve
