oMAR,s ExrRAuAaANcE

Here with a loaf of bread beneath the bough, -
Sang Omar, but the times were not as now;
Were he today to seek the wilderness
He'd leave the loaf behind him, l allow.
The book of verse he easily might get
And too that good old jug of something wet,
But wheat is up so high that he would pause
At blowing in much good coin, 1 bet.
All, one could be a sport in those good days.
And have a front meath fortunes skimpiest
rays;
why, he could have two great big loaves at
once.
And meet the bill and earn the ady's praise.
In all that land the traveller would not meet
A man who d plan to corner all the wheat
And turn a heartless face on those who called
Aloud for mercy SO that they might eat
So Omar in his planning would not stoop
To cheap provisions like good bone made soup,
But chose the seasons dainties lavishly-
He ordered bread, and did not give a whoop.
Charles r. Barnes.

tempted to theft in order to feed tho
mouths of the infants. according to the
Indianapolis News.
"Your honor, I will say frankly"
said Mr.. Pettijohn in closing that if
I were the father of twins and needed
food for my family 1 would not hesitate
to go out and steal it,"
mfr. Pettijohn, when you are the
father of twins l will consider your
proposition" said Judge Prltchard

as a prelude to a guest dinner, or as
quiet amusement to follow such func-
ton, or for a number on any evening

An amusing way to get it up is in
rhymed couplets, an example of which
is given below to show the plan. The
hostess with invention can alter the
courses to include anything she prefers.
The questions should be, written on
menu cards or an imitation of these
prepared and decorated at home. Leave
the reverse side of the cards blank eX-
cept for the answers.
Prizes may be awarded for the best
set of answers. A cookbook would
make a good ladies' prize. If but one
award is to be made book of chatting
