LAWS ON EATING.
Meals at One Time Were Regulated
by Statute In England.

On Nov. 2, 1886, a law came into
force in England for the regulation OF
meals and continued to have place on
the statute book until 1857. 1t was de-
signed to check the evils resulting from
an excessive use of costly meats and
enacted that no one should partake at
any place or time except on specified
festivals and holidays to the number
of sixteen days a year. of more than
two courses, each not consisting OF
more than two sorts of victuals, either
flesh or fish, with the common sorts OF
pottage, and inexpensive sauce. On
named feast days three courses were
allowed.
This law was an extension of an or
dinance issued-by Edward II. in 1915
| regulating the meals Of his mobiles, the
greater of whom were allowed in ad-
| dition to two courses of two kinds OF
| meat a side dish of one sort.
An act of 1868 enacts that servants
| artisans and labOrers shall be served
| to eat and drink once a day of flesh OF
| fish and remnant of other victuals, as
| of butter, milk and cheese, according
| to their station in life. "-LondOn Tele

AFTERNOON TEA.

Eighteenth Century.

Eighteenth Century.
The earliest mention of afternoon tea
is bv Carlyle of Inveresk, who, writing
of society at Harrogate in 1853, says,
The ladies gave afternoon tea and
coffee in their turns"
In 1866 William Dutton wrote home
from Elton college to his father in Sher-
borne, II wish you would be So kind
as to let me have tea and sugar to
drink in the afternoon, without which
there is no keeping company with other
boys Of my standing"
DR.. Somerville, minister Of Jedburgh,
writing Of social habits in Scotland
In his early life Q74D, says, Most fam
lilies, both in the higher and in the mid
die ranks, used tea at breakfast, but
| among the latter it was only recently
| introduced in the afternoon, on the oc-
casion of receiving company"
Thackeray, in THE Newcomes
| 1850, alludes to the light refreshmeh'
halfway between lunch and dinner as

ton. Barnes Newcome comes every

MONKEY FRANKS.
fine Way One GINNING Ape Served q
Thieving Crow.


Recently a monkey got the better Of
the common enemy. the carbon crow,
by feigning illness. He was fastened
TO bamboo pole with a running ring.
When he was on his perch the crows
annoyed him by stealing from his por-
ringer on the ground
One morning they had been specially
disagreeable. He closed his eyes and
feigned bad illness. When his days
food was brought him the crows de-
scended upon it. and he had scarcely
strength to defend it. BY good acting
he managed to capture one of the
crows. To pluck it alive was the OBJ
viOus course. Then, instead of pulling
it to pieces. like the king monkey whom
Kipling and Sir Edward Buck watched
enjoying a similar triumph at Simla.
this monkey tossed the crow into the
air, where its own companions fell up
on it and killed it.
Monkeys certainly have a sense OF
| fun. Darwin used to spend hours
watching young female orang outans
in the geological gardens and was sure
that she had the comic sentiment. She
delighted to put upon her head. like {
| cap, peculiar shaped bowl, which haC
a droll effect, and she was sensitive t.
the effect which her joke produced up
on the spectators.-Lahore Tribune.

Should Drunkards VoteS

DIR. Prescott, Methodist clergyman
of Boston, urges that, instead of put
ting drunkards in prison, it would De
far better to deprive them OF the
franchise for a year. AS it IS, we
punish a man for drunkenness by
sending him TO prison, where he does
not do work enough to hurt him, and
gets comfortable lodging and plenty
of good food. In the meantime, his
poor wife and children are left with
out even the miserable support he
had been giving the m. DR.. Prescott S
plan would prevent that injustice to
to the drunkard's family, and perhaps
shame him from his folly, if he has
any sense OF shame left. Moreover,
1t would remove from the polls an
element most open to corruption.
Why should drunkard have the
franchise anyway? He has proved
his inability to control himself, why
should he be allowed to have contro
over me and over other men and over
the city? Many close election would
be changed, many important policies
would be reversed, were the drinking
votes weeded out.
To disfranchise drunkards would
be saying to them in effect: "Yol
have ceased to be men, you hav
! become beasts. Until you reform
into manhood again you shall no
= share in the control of the destinie
; of men," That would be the simpl
truth, and it would be kindness t
: the drunkard to make him realize il
. l, for one, should like to see the tris

three quarters skinned if he'd taken
the other.
The 81 80 was full-gsllon, the
Sl.25 was l8 per cent short. The
full paint was adulterated
40 per cent; the short-measure paint
was adultersted 45 per cent, besides
benzine in the oil, don't know how
much.
Devoe lead-and zinc wasn't sold in
the town then.
Il don't pay to monkey with paint.
Devoe costs less than any of 'em;

on it. Go by the house.

the sad and untimeiy death of Mr.
Walter F. Derrick of the Fork, which
occurred Saturday evening while he
and two of bis sons were cutting
down tree, off of which a limb broke
and fell upon him inaicting such
serious injuries that be died in a
few hours. He was beyond human
aid and all that loving hands could
do could not relieve suffering or balk
the mission of death.
Mr.. Derrick was in his 57th year.
He leaves to mourn his death wife,
ten children and host of friends.
He was a consistent member OF
Bethel Lutheran church. An evi-
dence of the esteem in which be was
held by his neighbors, was the large
crowd that attended his funeral al
High Hill, Sunday evening at 3p m.
The funeral services we're conducted
by Rev. S G. Balleutine, who deliv-
cred very feeling and touching
sermon.
He was 8 warm friend of this
writer and We extend to the beresved
family our sympathy and trust that
they will be comforted and consoled
by a Higher and Greater than We.
