HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times, 1887-5-12, Page 3ELOUSEHOLID, ;letting Table for a Plain dinner. A neat, well -set table, with its snowy linen, glittering silver and china, is one o£ the best appetizers one can have. When to tills ie added some touch of be uty i aarks a h e of lovely s c color,le us sa Pb a vase Yof Y flowers, ow rs, a freshly growing foliage plant, or the rainbow tiutings of modern Mass, the effect is magical, and the .spirits rise under the influence of anticipated good ()hoer in a Moet marvelous manner. By this I do not mean that wetly furnishing is necessary to promote auttoipations and feelings of good 4heer, but that neatness, and ordor, and the brightness of good color are requisites, and these may be had for a trifle more than the revet'se costs, and in the end at a lower Dost, taking all the good results into considera- tion. Firs "and foremost is needed a nice thick, doubt .faced canton flannel over which to spree the da mask table ()loth, which t should Id be of t e purest white for dinner. r. A cloth of small pattern will take a goodgloss in the ironing, and wear better than one of large pattern. The napkins should match the sloth, and be daintily washed and ironed, with a trifle of starching only. If there is to be any decoration a low bowl of ,flowers, orpotted a o d plant of fresh clean foliage, will be pretty stnding in standing a middle of thable, and where there is no waiter, it will be con- venient and tasteful to arrange a fruit de- sert on little fancy plates, one for eaoh member of the family and the guest or guests around the flowers, thus making a pretty center piece. The knives, forks, and spoons to be used should be laid at each place, the forks at the left, the spoons at the right, the knives across the top and the folded napkin with a square of bread enclosed .be- tween them. There will be the desert knife, fork and spoon, the dinner knife and fork, and the tablespoon, and at the corners of the table the necessary vegetable spoons ; also, at each plate a goblet and individual salts, or else small salt and pepper cruets, say three of. eaoh on the table in convenient places. The soup and the roast may be on the table at once, and the vegetables in cov- ered dishes on a two -shelved side table con- venient to the mistress's hand, to avoid an appearance of crowding. .After the soup is served it will not be very troublesome for a servant or some member of the family, a daughter or wife's sister, to remove the tureen and soup plates to the lower shelf of the side table, and to place the vegetables on the dinner table, and presently for the servant to remove these, and bring in the coffee or tea and the dessert, and to stand them ou the side table. If there is no servant sufficiently trained, this service can be quietly performed by one of the family without disturbing the comfort of the guests or the rest of the fam- ily, if some method is observed and affairs have been regulated for a quiet change. In such a case that member, whether daughter or sister-in-law, but not the lady of the house, will remove the vegetables, and the plates and dinner knives and forks to the side table, serve the dessert of pudding, or pie, or *atnot, and place the after dinner coffee cups, cream, sugar, and coffee on a tray before the mistress of the house, and the dessert will proceed and the dinner end pleasantly. Meanwhile, from beginning to end, provided everything necessary has been placed on the two tables, there have 'ti been only two occasions for rising from the table and no apparent disturbance of the order of the dinner.

Ninety Years Old. The Emperor William of Germany has completed the ninetieth year of his age. The occasion was celebrated with unusual rejoicing and festivity throughout his domin- ions. In Berlin the displays of military pageantry and of court gaieties were brilli- ant and various, while throughout Germany the people gave themselves up to a joyous holiday. The event is certainly a very rare one, if, indeed, it is not unexampled in the history of modern royalty. It is not easy to recall any sovereign of a large nation in modern times who has reached so patriarchal an age. There have been, it is true, many longer reigns than that of the Emperor William. At least three living European potentates have sat upon the throne longer than the Victoria of England has reigned nearly fifty years. Francis Joseph of Aus- tria has reigned thirty-nine, and William of Holland has worn the crown thirty-eight years. But the German Emperor has only been king of Prussia twenty-six years, and The deal' that yras Interesterj in a Drummer. " You know Jonty—Jonty, of Toronto ? `Yes, I know hila well,"' "''what fellow's got the most cheek and can tell the biggest lie in the business. He told me that be was met by a bear ones and incl that hegot awaywith' it. asked I a d e to see the elfin, but he said he gave it to a a mash he made in the next town ; lain ho offered to give me her address. She'd mov- ed. But he met this boar, and this hoar looked at hint. He knew in a Minute he was a drummer, the bear did, and he licked his chops, anticipatin' eatin' him clean up. Jonty had great resence of mid and opened his sample case and showed' he he Pthe hear his baking powder. The bear was interest. ed. Bears have a great deal of curiosity. He began examining it coolly, just as if he was going to eat a drummer, and he might as we11 e bI,' b nwi' tht' he samples. He Ple linked upallthe baking b powder d er and seemed to en- joy it. All that Jonty wanted then was time. So he skirmished around e o un d un tIl the ain b k g powder began to work, and the bear began to swell. Upon my word, Jonty told me that the bear swelled up until he floated away into the air, and Jonty tied a rope to him, fastened the other end to a tree, and killed him with lead at his leisure," "Did you ask where Jonty got the rope?" " What was the good ? I knew he was lyin'." The Ladies' Favorite. The newest fashion in ladies' hats will doubtless cause a flutter of pleasurable ex- citement among the fair sex. Ladies are al- ways susceptible to the changes of a fashion plate ; and the more startling the departure, the more earnest the gossip over the new mode. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a positive cure for the ills which afflict fe- males and make their lives miserable, This sovereign panacea can be relied on in oases of displacements and all functional derange. ments. It builds up the poor, haggard and dragged -out vicitm, and gives her renewed hope and a fresh lease of life. It is the only medicine for woman's peculiar weaknesses and ailments, sold by druggists, under a. positive guarantee from the manufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money refunded.

The Cutest Little Things. " Cute 1" he echoed. " Well, I don't know as the adjective would have occurred to me in just that connection. But if you mean that they do their work thoroughly, yet make no fuss about it ; cause no pain or weakness ; and, in short, are everything that a pill ought to be, and nothing that it ought not, then I agree that Pierce's Pleas- ant Purgative Pellets are about the cutest little things going ! The Osservatore of Rome, a semi-official paper, rejoices over Prince Bismarck's de- cision to seek Papal assistance in his contest with the social revolutionists. Mild, soothing, and healing is Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. A fresh pro -Russian conspiracy has been discovered in Sofia, and several men who were formerly officers in the Bulgarian army have been arrested. Catarrh, Catarrhal Deafness and Hay Fever. Sufferers are not generally aware thab these diseases are contagious, or that they are due to the presence of living parasites in the lining membrane of the nose and eustachian tubes. Microscopic research, however, has proved this to be a fact, and the result is that a simple remedy has been formulated whereby catarrh, ioatarrhal deafness and hay fever are oured in tom oneto three simple applioatlone made at home. A pamphlet explaining this new treatment is sent tree n receipt of stamp by A. H. Dixon & Son, 808 Ring has been at the head of the Empire sixteen ! oo years. The monarchs who have had the two longest reigns in modern times, Louis XIV' of France an d George III. of Eng- land, both died younger, however, than the German William. Louis reigned no loss than seventy-two I ( years (1643-1715), and yet died at seventy- seven. George reigned sixty years (1760- 1820), and died at the age of eighty-two. The present Emperor of Brazil, who is now just closing the fifty-sixth year of nis reign, is in the sixty-second year of his age. It is wonderful to think that in the yet sturdy old ruler of Germany a monarch is p still reigning who became an officer of the Prussian army eighty years ago; who took part in, and still well remembers, the battle ;fir of Waterloo (1815), and who has seen all the great events of this eventful nineteenth oen- 4 tory, now so near its close, pass in dramatic succession before his eyes. The Emperor William has always shown a high, haughty, despotic nature. Ile is perhaps the only remaining sovereign in Europe—except his grand -nephew, the Rue- t sian Czar --who devoutly believes that he b has a divine right to rule, and who clings to ( the old despotic ideas of kingship which pre- vailed in the Middle. Ages. I t Yet he has never been a capricious tyrant. a He has shown an ardent love of his people p and his country; has been ambitious to make Germany great, strong, and prosperous; and I has sincerely tried to be a kindly as well as strict ruler over his subjects. e Like almost all of his stalwart race, Wil - liana has always had a fondness for military affairs. The greater part of his life. indeed, o was spent in active service in the Prussian F army. He had a taste of war very early in life, in the Napoleonic campaigns; and has always been regarded since as one of the W best -trained soldiers in Europe. At the age of ninety, the wonderful physi- P cal powers which have suffered the wear I and tear of an unusual busy and laborious d life seem t s undiminished. aline undi shenf d. The veteran Emperor is still seen daily by his people, standing erect and soldierly at the window of his palace; and we often hear of his appearing, mounted on his white on horse, at the great military reviews which V are frequently held in the neighborhood of of his capital. More than one attempt has been made, by wild fanatics, on the Emperor's life.Yet there is no doubt that his intelligent and thoughtful subjects regard him, not only with the deepest reverence, but with the fondest affection, Alike in his person and in his character,. he presents a noble type of royalty, a re- presentative of the German nation of which it may well be proud; and when, as must, ere very long, happen, he passes away, he will be deeply mourned and regretted throughout the Fatherland.
