BOAST ALITTLE.

The newspapers of the state
are natural "boosters" in sea.
son and out. Scarcely paper
is issued that does not in some
way advertise his city or coun,
ty. If others would do one
tenth as much in the way of
good words we would have
better results. But how COM
mon it is for the average citi-
zen to hold back and roast the
editor for his do.nothing policy
If the readers think of any
thing that would benefit the
community they sh-uld write
their ideas in the form of a
communication and hand it to
the editor for the public bene-
fit. If they go away from
home let them make observa-
tions with a view to comparing
the section visited with his
home and give the local paper
the benefit of all points favor
able to home. The trouble is
that so many people look upon
the country weekly as an in
stitution run for the benefit of
the public solely. without any
regard to the poor fellow who
pays the bills. The editor is
the fellow to pull the chest
nuts out of the fire for the
benefit of others but they
never think of throwing some
thing in his direction to help
pay the running expenses.
The editor is benefited in boost
ing only as any other citizen is
benefited and should bear no
more of the expense than the
others, Boost and you will
find the editor boosting. with
you.-Breckenridge Telegram.

When They Know Il All.

The proud father includes among
his boasts the following school es-

"a horse gets up by giving a sud-

"a COW drinks by putting it's

"a duck picks up the food by its
bill, then throws his head back.
"Maple leaves begin to bloom

"a locomotive while going around

"A passenger train when about to

HOW THEY DINED.
Methods Of the English at Table In
the Seventeenth Century.

S0o oov0OS0oOS0 NoUSuFys
The old English had three meals
q day, of which the chief meal was
taken when the work of the day was
finished. The first meal was at 9
o'clock, dinner was about 3 o'clock,
and supper was taken just before
bedtime. The Normans dined at
the old English breakfast time or a
little later and supped at p. m.
In Tudor times the higher classes
dined at II and supped at 5 o'clock,
but the merchants seldom took
their meals before IL and 6 o'clock.
The chief meals, dinner and sup
per, were taken in the hall both by
the old English and the Normans,
for the parlor did not come into use
until the reign of Elizabeth. Break
fast did not become regular meal
until quite lately, and DR.. Murray
in the Oxford Dictionary gave 1913
as the date of the earliest quota
ton in which the word occurred.
The meal did not Become recog-
nized until late in the seventeenth
century, for Pepys habitually took
his draft of half pint of Rhenish
wine or dram of strong waters in
place of a morning meal. Dinner
was always the great meal of the
day, and from the accession of Hen
ry ~. to the death of Queen Eliza
beth the dinners were as sumptuous
and extravagant as any Of those
now served.
Carving was then a fine art. Each
guest brought his own knife and
spoon, for the small fork was not
introduced into England until
Thomas Coryate of Odcombe pub
lished his s'Crudities" in 1911.
Pepys took his spoon and fork with
him to the lord mayors feast in
1868. The absence of forks led to
much stress being laid upon the act
Of washing the hands both before
and after meals and to the rule

dipped into the common dish, the
right hand being occupied with the
knife.
The perfect dinner at the best
time of English cookery consisted
of three courses, each complete in
itself, and terminated by subtlety
or device, the whole being rounded
off with hippocras, after which the
guests retired into another room,
where pastry, sweetmeats and fruit
were served with the choicer wines.
The English were essentially meat
eaters, and it was not until the
time of the Commonwealth that
pudding attained its extraordinary
popularity. Indeed the first men

the buckfeast at St. Bartholomew
hospital did not occur until 1910,
