Of his ancestor, Henry Muddiman, who
founded the London Gazette In 1895
under the title "The Kings Journalist" T"

1883, the manuscripts of which have
been at Longleat, Wiltshire, since 17O4,

Winsome Capes Among
New Spring Fashions

The little cape as a part of a cos
tune or as a separate wrap continues
to hold its position and is seen again
and again on the models introduced
for early spring. There Is no denying
Its style nor Its distinctiveness
Quite the most attractive capes are
made of soft finished flannel in lovely
colors, with an accent given by collars
of fur. One of yellow flannel is col
Jared with white coney while another
of powder blue has band Of squirrel
about the neck.
A most unusual decoration appears
on a cape of white novelty wool. The
cape, which reaches just to the hips,
is covered with design Of appliqued
green suede. The effect is strikingly
smart. This use of leather appliques is
seen on a loose knee-length coat of
white eponge, but in this instance
shiny red leather is chosen.
Coat dresses of Roman striped fan
mel are completed by capes to match
and are as attractive as they are serv-
iceable,

Veteran Waiter Finds
Modern Appetite Weak

An American, visiting Manchester,
England, not long ago, was brought in
contact with waiter who has served
at every oyster feast there since 1902
and who complained of the degeneracy
of the contemporary appetite.
"The capacity Of the guests II not
what It used to be-" said this waiter
II have often served fourteen dozen
oysters to one man, and many guests
would eat five or six dozen at the
feast. Today few persons eat more
than two and q half Dozen"
Now this disconsolate waiter might
brighten up II he had the opportunity
Of serving a customer like the man
whom Brillat-Savarin celebrates in his
"Physiologie du Gout." 1t L. therein
stated that when Brillat- -Savarin lived
at Versailles ne frequently met q N.
Laperte, who was very fond Of oys-
ters, but who complained that he could
never get his fll Of them. The IA
nous gastronomist determined to sat
lsfy this man once for all and invited
him to dinner. He kept pace with La
perte up to the third dozen and then
allowed him to proceed alone. He
swallowed oysters steadily for more
than an hour, and Brillat-Savarin had
to stop him after the tiairty-second
dozen, Just as he had remarked that
he was beginning to enjoy his treat.
The two men then dined and Laperte
acquitted himself with the vigor and
appetite Of man who had been Ions
