Sarvino Soup,

II anybody were asked to suggest
why the soup plate was made broad
and shallow the almost certain answer
would be that such an arrangement
facilitates the cooling Of the soup to a

We believe that utilitarians drink tea

While that may be the explanation Of
the peculiar shape OF the soup plate.
the advantage indicated Is surely in-
significant compared with the obvious
disadvantages which may probably
arise from exposing SO large surface
Of nutrient fluid to the air. Soup
should be served in a cup. a low broad

DINED THE AUDIENCE.

lisxt and 8ubini.

An article in an Italian review con-
tains an interesting story Of Liszt and
Rubini the tenor. They were touring
together and visited town where.
from the preliminaries which had been
arranged, great things were expected.
But they were disappointed, for when
they entered the hall they found only
fifty persons present.
Ribini was furious and said he would
not sing. but List calmed him. You
must sing" he said. This small audi
ence is evidently composed of musical
connoisseurs Of the town. so we should
treat them with respect" Liszt set
the example with grand overture
and Rubini sang to perfection. Liszt
gave another piece and then addressed
the audience.
Liszt as an orator was as tactful as
he had been in the role of pacificator
Addressing his audience Of fifty. he
said: Ladies and gentlemen"-there
was only one lady PRESENT. think
that you have had enough music. Al
low me to ask you to take little sup
per with u.s." After few seconds the
invitation was accepted. and Liszt and
Rubini entertained the audience to
supper at their hotel. which cost them
/ 200 francs.
When the guests separated the hosts
thought the affair had been joke
about which nothing more would be
heard. but they decided to give their
concert as advertised on the following
night. To their establishment the hall
was packed There was not standing

CROWNED HIMSELF.
An Impromptu Ceremony In Which
King Georgs ". Figured.

That was a curious sort of impromp-

King William ". Of England figured.
Things did not go very well with Earl
Greys government after the second
reading Of the first reformed bill had

suddenly got the king to so down and
prorogue parliament in person. Some
body went of to the Tower to fetch the
crown. and with a scratch body Of at
tendants his majesty drove down to
the house Of lords. What happened
there Is described in Greville's mem

The king ought not properly to have
worn the crown. never having been
crowned. but when he was In the rob
ing room he said to Lord Hastings:
Lord Hastings. wear the crown.
Where is it," 1t was brought to him.
and when Lord Hastings was going to
put it on his head he said. Nobody
shall put the crown on my head but
myself" He put it on and then turned
TO Lord Grey and said. Now. my lord.

FOOTBALL.
The SissetOn High School Team Play
the Local High School Squad
i'm q Drawn Game.

The Milbank high school foot
ball team played their first game
of the present season last Satar-
day afternoon when they faced
the Sisseton eleven on the local
gridiron. The game was hotly
contested from the first kick off
until time was called at the close
of.the last quarter. Both teams
showed spirit, but toward the
end the boys showed their lack
of hard training.
The first quarter closed de
cidedly in favor of our boys as
they had scored a touch down
through a forward pass, worked
by Saunders to Putnam. The
second and third quarters ended
with no gains for either side,
though it appeared to those on
the side lines that the local bunch
had more speed and better team
work than their visitors In the
final quarter Sisseton scored a
touchdown on tumble by Mil
bank. Anderburg recovered the
ball and with a clear field he
evened scores and when time was
called the score stood 6 to 6.
The local high school team
show great promise and after a
weeks coaching under the GU
of South Dakota $ foot ball star,
Louis Saunders, the M. H. S.
bids fair to esta ablish place in
the front rank of high school
foot ball champions in this sec
ton, and they are well worthy OF
