WORLDS DINNER TIME
SELDOM HAS PRECISE HOUR BEEN
AGREED UPON.
From Moor, IN Ages the Most Popu-
lar, 1t Became Later as Life in Its
Bearings Became the More
Artificial

What is dinner time? The hour de-
ponds altogether upon where one lives
in this age, and 1t has depended every
where upon the epoch of the world.
In many rural districts of this coun-
try it lies between noon and one
o'clock. The dinner time of many
farmers and of those in the smaller
towns is almost exactly that of
princes and noblemen in Shake
speare's time. Many lines in his
works indicate all the world dined,
at that time, in the middle of the
day.
In our large cities most persons do
not dine until six or seven o'clock In
Europe the dinner hour in the cities
and towns is always late in the day,
for though in many of the country dis
tricts the people still eat their chief
meal in the middle of the day, the
dinner hour of society never comes
before six. In England the ultra-fash-
ionable folk dine at eight o'clock.
The French breakfast comes at
noon; their dinner at six or little
later, and their supper at nine or ten.
But as they do not all remain in
bed until noon, light meal Is needed
early in the morning, and they usually
take their coffee" upon arising--a
sort of lunch with a cup of coffee
with roll or a few cakes.
The changes undergone by the
French dinner hour indicate the ten
dency Of the meal hours to become
later as life becomes more artificial.
it Is related that in the reign of Louis
XII, in the simple epoch at the begin
ming of the sixteenth century, the king
went to bed at six in the evening,
rose at daylight or before and dined
at eight in the morning. But these
hours did not last long. Frances I.
Louis successor, moved the dinner
hour along a little. He dined at ten
o'clock in the forenoon and supped at
six
From the reign of Henry w to tho
year 1927 1t was the custom at the
French court to dine at II o'clock. At
that time it became the usage to dine
at noon, and the supper hour came at
seven in the evening.
Louis XIV dined at one o'clock, and
this hour was the customary one until
we'll into the eighteenth century when,
with the elegant people of the court,
dinner was deferred until two o'clock
and presently postponed until three.
The middle classes of society followed
the fashion at court.
After the French revolution the
dinner hour came still later-at five
o'clock, and finally at six. And So
ciety in the rest of the world has imi
tated this custom, together with so
many other French usages.

MADE The GHOST DISGUSTED
English Statesman's Story of Vision
Has at Least Little Touch of
Originality.

Mr.. Birrell told a ghost story at
the Bristol Press Fund dinner, when
responding to the toast, LITERATURE
and Journalism" In referring to a
recent speech by DR.. Silvanus Thomp-
son on the Importance of science, Mr..
Birrell said:
Il don't know, my Lord Mayor,
whether you ever have bad dreams,
but l have been haunted ever since
was almost boy by the constant
repetition of one and the same dream.
1T comes to me again and again.
1t is this: l dream l am walking
about somewhere in some plain or
desert, and l suddenly encounter the
agitated ghost Of Sir Isaac Newton.
He approaches me, his eyes almost
starting out of his head; he tells me
who he, is, and how ignorant he is of
all that has happened in the world
of science since he left.
Now he says, L want you to tell
me in a few words-for l have only a
quarter of an hour left-all that has
happened to the race; the progress.
How is it? I know what it was when
l left it. What is it now?
My heart sinks, and, covered with
confusion, I stumble, l stutter, l stam-
mer, I become more and more in
volved, my ignorance becomes more
and more apparent, and at last the I'M
happy ghost, throwing up his hands,
leaves me with dismay.
That dream constantly comes to
me. The only difference is that the
moment the unhappy Sir Isaac New
ton sees me now he says, oh, that
old ignoramus,' and departs. Lon

Mustard an Ancient Remedy.

Mustard is one of the most ancient
of medicines. Pythagoras, who -four
ished between 500 and 600 years be-
fore Christ, mentions it. Hippocrates,
who was born in 400 B. c., employed
it. Pliny the Elder, writing in II A. D.,
describes three different kinds of
mustard, and says the seeds were
imported to Italy from Egypt origin
ally.
The Romans used it as a stimulant
after cold bath; they mixed mustard
oil and olive oil in equal parts and
used this as a liniment for stiffness Of
the muscles. They knew the virtues
of mustard poultices and of mustard
as an emetic. AS remedy for the
stings of scorpions and serpents, they
pounded it, mixed it with vinegar and
applied it to the wound.
They also made drink out of it,
fermenting the seed in a fiery spirit.
The liquor thus produced they called
mustum ardens, which means burn
ing wine. The word mustard is prob
ably derived from this.

The topic at a recent banquet

The incident happened in school
one afternoon when the lesson was on
the American Indian and the teacher
asked if any little boy or girl could
tell her what the leaders of the vari-
Gus tribes we're called.
*'They are called Chiefs" promptly
announced a bright little girl in re-
Spouse to the squestion.
Correct" said the teacher, smiling
cpprovingly Nov, then, can anyone
of you tell me what the women of the
Indian tribes are called?"
For a moment there was silence.
Every pupil in the class was thinking
hard. Finally little Johnny Browns
hand shot up.
We'll, Johnny" said the teachers
what are the women of the Indian
tribes called?"
Miss Chiefs" proudly answered
Johnny.
