Rules for Table Manners.

In the August American Magazine
Gelett Burgess writing "The Maxims OF
Japhet' presents the following rules for
table manners:
"My son, when thou sittiest at meat
with a damsel. have care how thou
eatest, lest thou offend her.
For this is the test of love; whatso-
ever goeth into thy mouth and cometh
out again, the same shall try her as
with fire.
"And OF these things shalt thou have
care; of the apple, and the orange, and
the peach, and fruits with skins aft
er their kind
"The cherry and the plum and the
olive and the apricot, and fruits with
stones after their kind.
"The grape and the raspberry and
the watermelon, and fruits with seeds
after their kind, of all these things shalt
thou have a care.
"And whatsoever hath seeds or skins
or stones, that thou spewest out Of they
mouth, these shall be an abomination
unto her, unless she love thee.
Thou shalt not help her on with her
wrap whilst thou hast a cigar in thy
teeth; IL il abomination.
Neither shalt thou pick thy teeth
behind thy napkins il is abomination Of
denominations.
"And II thou cuttest thy potato or
any vegetable with a knife, thou shalt
BE- cast out into utter darkness.
"For she mitch with her lips, and
sayeth pleasant thingsi yet doth her
eve watch thee. and her foot tappeth
the floor. II is the end Of love"
