A striking difference between our
manners and those of our English
cousins was shown one day Mt gar
den party. The hostess, an American,
was speaking to one Of her guests, an
Englishwoman Of rank.
"Dear Lady b." she said, "here are
some sandwiches which made with
my own hands, particularly for you.
You know I've often told you about
our American sandwiches and how
good they are. Here are different
sorts, lettuce and cucumbers, IL you
care for grass or IL you like savory

pimentoes. I've some sweet ones, too
raislns and nuts chopped together
which will you try first?"
She held plate in each hand, q
plate filed with dainty looking sand
witches, and they were extended invit
ingly toward her guest. who looked Al
them critically, then said in the clear
high pitched voice of the well bret
Englishwoman:
