AN OLD FASHIONED DINNER.

"A few days ago / took dinner at
a country home in the northern
part of the state. On that table
were two kinds of meat, three kinds
of bread, three kinds of vegetables,
to say nothing of such items as milk,
butter, coffee. syrup, honey, pickles.
jelly and preserves. And this was
a dinner which the young housewife
had to prepare hurriedly, and she
apologized to me for not having any
thing to eat"
This is an extract from the special
article on food conservation by Mr..
]. A. Hall in the DeKalb New Era
last week. Time has been when the
greater variety of foods on the table
at one time the greater the style of
the hostess, especially in the country
where everything necessary was rails
ed except such things as did not grow
here or were manufactured abroad.
Neither were edibles served in cours-
es then but every thing, even boiled
custard in glasses, was placed on the
table. Hot biscuits were brought in
and breakfasts then were very sub
stantial meals. However, we continue
to learn better. Why people once
thought it ordinary to be well and
unrefined to indulge healthy APP
petite we do not understand. We
will have to console ourselves with
the ancient truism. Times change
and we are changed with them.

WAR AND WOMEN

The French women, as Germany
captured French towns were removed
from their homes and made to be
slaves and perform service that Ger
mans be released to go to the front.
In our own country Ben Butler,
while in command of New Orleans,
issued orders that his soldiers would
be backed by him to treat any lady
of New Orleans as "a woman of the
town" should the soldiers construe
any look or gesture or movements
as a discourtesy. But not soldier
availed himself of Buffers order.
Lincoln removed Butler under pre-
tense of military advancement of his
favorite officer, but Napoleon III
threatened to recognize the Southern
Confederacy should Butler remain in
New Orleans. New Orleans had
ma Y French descendants, and Louis
Napoleon would not stand for mis-

THREE UP ON ANANIAS.

A group of golfers sat one day
Around the nineteenth hole,
Exchanging lies and alibis
Athwart the following bowl;
'Let's give a cup" said one of them,
A sparkle in his eye,
''For him among us who can tell
The most outrageous lie"
"Agreedw they cried, and one by
one
They played 'er under par;
With yarns of puts and brassie shots
That travelled true and far;
With stories of prodigious swipes-
Of holes they made in one
Of niblick shots from yawning traps
AS Vardon might have done.
And then they noticed, sitting by,
Apart from all the rest,
A stranger who had yet to join
The fabricating test;
"Get in the game"-they said to
him
"Come on and shoot your Bit
Where at the stranger rose and spoke
AS follows-Or to-wit-
Although I've played some holes in
one,
And other holes in two
Although I've often beaten par,
| kindly beg of you
To let me off-for while l might
Show proof of well earned fame
l never speak about my scores
Or talk about my game. =
They handed him the cup at once, :
Their beaten banners furled,
Inscribing first below his name
THE CHAMPION OF THE
WORLD.

A CANDID CRITIC.

Once a poet wrote a sonnet
All about a pretty bonnett,
And a critic sat upon it
(On the sonnet,
Not the bonnet,
Nothing loath.
And, as if it were high treason,
Said, Neither rhyme nor reason
Has it. And it's out of season.
Which? The sonnet
Or the monnet?
Maybe both.
" 'Tis a feeble imitation
Of worthier creation.
An aesthetic innovation"
Of sonnet
Or a bonnet?
This was hard.
Both were put together neatly.
Harmonizing very sweetly,
But the critic crushed completely,
Not the bonnet,
Nor the sonnet,
But the Bard!
