nection with the bicentenary OF Peter the Great
is one OF the most treasured in the collection
OF interest is that for a dinner given by Presi-
dent Kruger to President Steyn at the Grand
Hotel. Pretoria. Cards of two dinners given by
the President of Brazil. one to United States
Minister Griscom on July 20. 1906 and the
other on August 2. 1906. to Secretary Root have
recently been added to the collection. as has the
card of the dinner given in the palace at Havana,
Cuba. for MIR and Mrs Nicholas Longworth by
President Palma.
a highly valued addition to the rare oldttme
menus is that Of the senior class supper Of Har-
ward College on July 13 1913. This menu shows
that in those days. at least. turkey and mince
pie were not deemed bad for the digestion in
the middle of July.
4 menu for a dinner given by the Squantum
Club OF Providence. r. L. is said to be printed in
genuine Indian According to this menu 'wun-
nechumuOuh wenomeneash' is equivalent to
fruit, and mochashauntanawsuck" equals
dcvilled lobster in shells. When ordering clam
broth in cups from IT, one was obliged to make
noise like "nppi sckissuog -nootatamwaetchu-
ash"
Miss Buttolph has one division Of her coIlec-
ton given UP TO those menus gotten up in odd
and unusual shapes Some Of the GridirOn
Clubs menus figure in this division Of the COL
lection. The stuffed ballot box menu OF this
clubs 1903 dinner is one Of the most clever

to tag. figured dinner Of the Farragut

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1907-02-24

many menus OF value from their associations
and many others attractive in their unusual out
ward forms For instance there IS the menu
printed in French on a silkcn napkin. OF the
birthday dinner of the Emperor Of Japan held
I'm the palace at Toxic on November ;. 1900 On
a menu printed In Sanscrit Of a dinner given by
the Maharaiah OF Baroda to the Maharajah
Scindiya OF Gawalior. India. the courses are d.
yidcd for the three castles. to be served In Hin
dustaui Rrahmin and French style. Another
from the Emperor OF Coreas dinner to the Tan
party including Miss Alice Roosevelt, in the
palace on September 20. 1909 Is perhaps the
more Interesting from the fact that the occasion
was said to have been the first time that the
Emperor had ever diued in public with foreign
women. one OF the most elaborate OF the
Gently added cards is that for the Lord Mayor
Of Londou's dinner TO the King and Queen OF
Norway on November H. 1906.
Another valued card is that for a dinner
aboard the royal yacht, In course OF the trip OF
the Prince and Princess Of Wales to TrondhJelm
Norway. on June IS to o. 1906 to attend the
coronation Of King Haakon VII and Queen
Maud Still another card from England is that
for 4 dinner in King Edwards box at the Ascot
races.
There are any number OF cards from dinners at
which President Roosevelt has been the guest OF
honor one OF the more recent is for a dinner
given 10y President and Mine. Amador OF Pan
anna TO President and Mrs Roosevelt. on Novem-
Ter l.. 1906 This is in the form OF silken
banner dependent from a spear OF silver. An
other is from q dinner given by officers OF the
United states steamship Louisiana for President
and Mrs. Roosevelt at November II
1906 Along with this goes the card OF the sail
ors mess. showing the Presidents simple faro

received unexpected cooperation Her name
went abroad, and now there is scarcely mail
that does not bring to her from all corners OF
the earth menus of all kinds-menus OF the ricn
and menus of the poor; cards which kings and
queens have consulted in the ordering of wines
and the rarest of edihles, and cards which have
figured in cheap eating houses on New York's
lower East Side The former associations OF a
menu card are by no means its chief qualitica-
ton in the eyes of Miss Buttolph. Indeed. more
than one card from the courts OF Europe goes
into the waste basket each week for other
reason than that it is badly soied and crumpled.
Miss Buttolph's motto has always been cleanli-
ness. and one be he Of high or low estate,
