Custom Allows 50 Many Pounds and
Ounces a Head, a Week.
The English custom of allowing so
many pounds and ounces of foul a
week to servants is practically un-
known In this country. The Queen
contains the following explicit figures
in regard to servants allowances:
"The usual allowance for tea is 3
quarter OF pound head week. and
as long as the servants keep within
this / should not bother much about
when they have their tea; butter.
half a pound head week for eating
purposes; sugar, from half pound
to a pound a head weekly; cheese.
from half a pound to a pound head
weekly, according TO whether you al
low meat for supper or not.
'The cocoa you would. reckon sepa'
rately from the tea, as you allow it In
stead OF beer; the amount OF this re-
Quired depends greatly on the quality
Of the cocoa. but with good brand
you would allow teaspoonfuI OF
rather under to each cup. so that II
the servants have It once day you
would reckon two ounces a head q
week. For meat the usual allowance
is from one-half to three-quarters OF
a pound a head day, the latter In
cluding bone; anything beyond seven
pounds head weekly indicates waste
or dishonesty"

A custom among attendants OF the
Greek Church at Trebizond explains
the use Of certain tokens which have
been presented to the American Nu-
mismatic Society IN this city.
according to the Journal Of the SO
ciety sometimes several collections
are made during the service in these
churches. Even should there be but
one. the visitor may desire to make a
special contribution at the shrine or
picture Of some OF the saints whose
Impression he desires to secure, or he
may wish to purchase candle for use
IN some Of the ceremonials IN public
or private devotions.
On entering the church, therefore,
ne exchanges certain sum Of money
with the deacon at the gate for an
equivalent amount Of these tokens. He
is thus able to respond to the calls for
the various offerings during the ser
vice or to deposit his gift at the shrine
Of the saint BY using one or more OF
these tokens as he may be disposed.

his purse. These church tokens are
sometimes Of brass and sometimes Of
