THE incandoscent mantle has hlth-

Costly Meals.

The costliest mea1 ever served, as far
as history shows. was supper given
by Aelin Nerus. one Of the most law
ish of tue latter day Roman aristocrats.
The supper WAS only intended for n
dozen persons. yet its cost was 5000
sestertia, which would amount TO f4S,-
600 In English money. or nearly quar-
ter of a million dollars.
The celebrated feast given by Nitel-
Illus, a Roman emperor Of those degen-
crate days, to his brother Lucius cost
fraction over 5000, 600. Suetonius says
that this banquet consisted of 1000 diff
ferent dishes of fish and 1000 different
fowls, besides other courses in proper
rion. Vitelhus, fortunately for the
world, did not reign very long. Other
wise the game preserves of Libya,
Spain and Britain would have been ex-
hausted.
1t may not be out of place to mention
here that 1t is recorded as curious
point of history that single dish on
the table CT the Emperor Heliogabalui
was worth 5000, 900.

STARTING A PAPER
Did you ever start a paper

Did you ever start a paper
Otherwise than in your mind,
Just to keep yourself from mischief
Or to elevate mankind,
Just to make the world take notice
And TO keep the nation straight?
II you haven't you should do SO.
For the exercise is great.
Where q long felt want is roaming.
Threatening almost 20 bite.
You should jump into the harness
And proceed at once to write.
Possibly the world is waiting,
Losing sleep from day to day
And on tiptoe leaning forward
Just TO hear what you will say.
There are causes great and noble,
Some perhaps quite near your heart,
That are crying for the paper
That lis up TO you to start;
Just before you there is waiting
Maybe riches, surely fame;
Hire a printer and get busy;
That's the way to work the game.
Easier than raising chickens,
If you will the rules observe;
Any one can do the business
II he only has the nerve.
Why delay? You know. dear reader.

You could do 1t so much better
Than the men who do it now.

No matter who prohibited.

Because she wants him on her list.

Because she's here and SO is he:
