Tender Hearted Maid.

Once upon time there lived a cnlio
of gentle mien and manners Mild; sne
was so tender and 80 kind she wept TO
see window blind. She feared 1t might
give the window pain to leave 1t stand
ing in the rain Her maiden aunty
she would beg not to stone ralsins
beat an egg. or from potatoes take the
ewes. Oh, how this maid did agonize.
And when she saw her whipping
cream with horror she would sob ana
scream. The very thought of killing
time appeared to her ii dreadful crime.
and. though to music she inclined. TO
beat a measure seemed unkind TO
see the cowslip by the river with APP
prehension made her SILVER; to cut a
page or turn 1t down would cause a
deprecating frown. And when she
saw them shivering in the chill au'
tumn air she knitted stockings for the
trees because their limbs were bare.
Her heart so oft with anguish wrung
caused this poor maid to die quite
young. Widow.

How Romans Took Their Food.


The Romans recliDed at their ban
quets on couches, all supporting them
selves on one elbow and eating witn
their fingers from dishes placed IN the
center of the table. Each was sup
piled with q napkin, and knives were
used, though it does not appear that
every one was supplied with one.
Nothing, 1t would seem, could be more
fatiguing than to partake OF repast
In such an awkward posture or less
conductive to neatness, it being almost
impossible to keep the hands clean
even with water supplied by the slaves
or to prevent the food and wine from
falling on the clothing and the draper
les of the couch. This manner OF eat
ing disappeared during the dark ages
so far as the couch Yps concerned
but the popularity Of taxing food with
the fingers from common dish con-
tinued afterward for more than l'OOO
years.
