SALT CELLAR OF LONG AGO.
Mas Distinctive Mark Of Caste In the
Middle Ages.

This Is a medieval salt cellar" said
the antiquary. 1T is huge, 1t Is shaped
like castle. 1t Is solid silver and the
price-but what is the use telling the
price to you? Very magnificent, eh1
In the middle age, you know, the salt
cellar was the principal table ornar
ment. Guests sat above or below the
salt as they were prominent or the
reverse. Where do you think you'd
have sat. Ell? Queer table manners
they had in those days. The fastidious
had individual knives, forks and
spoons, but the common people ate
With their fingers. You helped your
self from the general dish with your
own spoon II you had one, but II you
were very, very fastidious you licked
the spoon clean first. The food was
queer-rich, rank food-swans. herons,
porpoises. garlic. verjuice, saffron.
There was mead and wine In floods
and ushe1s stood about whose duty
It was to lead to convenient couches
such guests as had dined too we'll.
These ushers, being oyerworked, were
continually striking for more pay. The
hours were queer, too. Breakfast,
dawn; dinner. ten o'clock; supper. four
o'clock in the afternoon"

PLEA FOR sELF.RELlANCE.
Charles G. Dawes Good Advice te
Young Men in Business.

This Is a hard world in business. It
always has been and always will be.
There are many good and generous
men in it. There are many who will
lend helping hand to you in your ad.
versity, but in the time of need you
will not find them among the men
who tried to get you to embark In
speculation with your little surplus,
and to sell you something which
would help you to "easy money" Be
self-reliant. Make your own tnvestt-
cation into investments. When you
cannot, put your money in a good
savings bank. Distrust the financial
demagogues as you distrust the po-
litical demagogue. Keep your hand
on your pocketbook as you travel life
first. to give always in proportion
to your means to those who are poor
er; second, to hold from those who
would take through force or fraud
what you need for yourself and yours.
You will then, writes Mr.. Dawes in
the Saturday Evening Post, have your
hand where most Of the other fellows
have only their eyes. In this alone
you will have the advantage of them.

Very few persons outside OF the

Of money as are expended by the

rush excitedly to the cashiers desk
and detain a departing individual.
The waiter explained. For month
past some of the numbered checks
had been missing, and it had been dis
covered that certain patrons were
economizing at the expense OF the
management. A man would order 10
cents worth and receive a check for
the amount. Then he would secrete
the check when the waiter wasn't
looking and order quarters worth
more Of eatables, The waiter would
then give q check for 40 cents, but
when it came time to pay the Gus
toner would use the 15-cent ticket to
get by the door. Him." muttered the
hungry man; fine scheme" and In
the excitement he passed a Canadian
