eeteY OLD DINNER.
An antiquary in the city of Brussels
.tamed Goebel gave .perhaps the oldest
dinner which has ever been eaten. A
; description was given by one of the
• guests, Mr. Aniaziali Dukes. lie says:
"At that dinner I ate apples that ripen-
ed more than eighteen hundred years
ago; bread made from wheat grown be-
fore the children of Israel passed
through the Red Sea, spread with but-
t -ter which was made when Elizabeth
was Queen of England; and I washed
down the repast with wine which was
old when Columbus was playing barefoot
with the boys of Genoa.
"The apples were from an earthen jar
taken from the ruins of :Pompeii. The
wheat was taken from a chamber in one
of the Pyramids, the butter from a
stone shelf in an old well in eotdand,
where for several centuries it hacl lain
In an earthen crock in ic=y water, and
the Wine was recovered from an old
vault in the city of Corinth. There were
six guests at the table ,and, each had a
mouthful of bread and a teaspoonful of
'wine, but was permitted to help him-
self but
to the butter, there
being several pounds of it. The apple
jar held about two-thirds of a gallon.
The, fruit was sweet and as finely flav-
ored as if it had been picked. but yes-
terday."'
Bulls and Bears.
"Well, I see the Jags finally took
the bull by the horns."
"Not exactly, but they took the
Bear 'by the scruff of the neck."

A GROCER'S ADVERTISING.
One of the heavy local advertisers of a
western city says he bas found it neces-
sary to advertise regularly to build up
his present large business, as does any
department store man. He maintains
that he has found it profitable to exploit
a great variety of articles instead of
making a display over a cut in sugars
or other staples. "The women are eager
readers of 1ny announcements," he says,
"and they find in them suggestions fpr
their day's purchases. Thus through ad-
vertising T sell many things to hundreds
instead of to occasional 'buyers."

Twigs in Water,
Now is the time to bring some twigs
indoors and put them in a vase of wa-
ter to the window sill. Choose anything
you like, and if you do not know what
it is, so much the better! There are three
classes of twigs that are especially in-
teresting; early -flowering shrubs; the
Cornrnon shade trees, and above all the
fruit trees which give the largest and
showiest flowers. Winter buds are a
fascinating study. The leaf -buds are gen-
erally .long and pointed; fruit buds are
short and fat. If you know what kind
of twigs you have, you might put a lit-
tle merchandise tag at the base of each
and record the date of bringing indoors
and the date of blown.—Country Life in

the stations. The sleeping oar is di-
Vided into three parts—bed, bath and

Amtong Iris kin is a lady with similar

bas, who is a pet of kir. Gillette's
and who boasts a oat, a gift to her
from him, named by' the romantic
mother Lucia di Lammermoor.
One day! In London Mr. Gillette
joined a box part;yl at a Melba mat-
inee of Doinizettl's opera. The child
insisted upon sitting near him, and
he was glad to have her. As the per -
forma nee went c'n the actor softer

Suddenly she turned to him—it
was during the hush that precedes
the "Begnava nel silensioe— and said:
"What is the name of the Wee, lir.
Gi=llette?" For reply;, he handed her
a programme and pointed to the
title. Then, in the whisper that lane
hears more clistinetlgi than thunder,
and cagily reaching the prima donna,
she cried out to her mother:
