Ancient Table Manners.

A description of a dinner given I'm
1850 shows that there has been a vast
improvement In table manners since
then. AS rule, one knife had to serve
for two people. and often bowl OF
soup was used by two persons. For
this reason the party giving the din
ner arranged his guests in couples. try
ing to place people together who would
be congeniai and not adverse to this
common use of table appointments.
Spoons were seldom supplied 10 the
guests, and the soup was drunk d.
rectly from the bowl, the latter usually
having side handles by which 1t was
held. In less refined company there
were no separate soup bowls, only one
large porringer, which wars passed
around to the guests in turn. The
diners helped themselves to the pieces
of meat tn " desired from the common
dish with their fingers.
Napkins were considered a luxury.
and were only provided in very arts
tocratic and wealthy families.-Phila-
delphia Inquirer.

ana doubt ii you can find enc OF that
number who is disconnected with his or
her lot. Several years ago it was Gus
tomary with the majority of circuses
to provide inferior cars for their busi
ness staff and performers and compel
the laborer3 to sleep under tie big red
wagons or the fiat car. The passage of
time has changed the order Of things.
circus folk now travel as well as if not
better than the majority of men and
women who are constantly moving
from one portion Of the United States
to the other in search of pleasure
'Our business staff and performers
live in spacious Pullman cars. The
beds are soft and roony, and the bed
clothing is always fresh and clean. Tie
circus has twelve Pullmans of this
kind, and on each one Is porter,
whose duty it is to polish the shoes Of
all the occupants each night, look after
the laundry and make the beds and
sweep and dust the cars. These cars
arc vestibuled, and at the head of the
train is an extra long dining car, where
the majority of the people are fed.
This dinner is looked after by compe-
tent steward, with staff of good cooks
and walters, and breakfast and dinner
are served there each day. The per-
formers take their luncheon on the
circus grounds Immediately after pa
rade.
1.-THE laborers, including the drivers,
canvas men, hostlers, property ham
dlers and animal men, are served with
three meals on the ground. The food
provided is of the best, and there is al
ways plenty Of it. Every laborer has a
bed The drivers and hostlers have
swinging hunks in the cars directly
above their horses; the animal men are
accommodated in coy little staterooms
fitted up in the big elephant cars, while
the property handlers and canvas men
sleep in coaches that greatly resemble
tourist cars. Every one has good quar-
tiers and splendid food, and in conse-
quence it is seldom that complaint IS
heard."-Kansas City Journal.
