..... ,. .. - . PHUTUGflAPHS Ill BUTTER RE CENTL‘X’ BE Câ€"OIIIE THE FASH- ION: IN ENGLAND. Unique Ideas at Luncheons Dinners to British Cele- ' brities. and Novelties for the dinner-table are becoming as numerous as fashions in ladies’ bonnets says London An- :wers. v At a literary man’s dinner ,a short time ago, for instance, there graced the centre of the table a number of characters taken from the same author’s novelsâ€"wax dolls properly dressed in accordance with the, de- scription accorded to each in the various novels. The idea was uniâ€" que and cheerful, and it brightened the tumble and the dinner, too. This was followed shortly after- wards by a literary luncheon, given by another wellâ€"known novelist, who scored a triumph in the “sweets” that were served up, these being made to resemble pens, ink, and paper. But while these and other recent' attempts at striking . some- thing new in the novelty line' achievâ€" ed distinctidn and applause for their inventors, there was something in :‘the idea which, while it pleased the eye and artistic taste, yet did not furnish anything practical. A 'prac~ tical novelty was wanted, and it has Just been found in pats of butter. ot to be outdone by his “litâ€" erary” friends, a young English scul- ptor furnished a pretty decoration for the dinnerâ€"table, at which sat re- cently some of the first artists of the day. This consisted of nothing less than a bust, done in butter, of each of the six guests whose company he had the pleasure of enjoying. THE IDEA HAS CAUGHT ON and now it is becoming the fashion at weddingâ€"parties and dinnerâ€"parties and so forth, to mould the principal guest or bridal pair in butter, reâ€" plicas of which are placed in proper position near to the covers laid for the guests. Reproducing the bust of some parâ€" ticular friend or other in this way is done at small social gatherings, but at the more ambitious “meets” the custom of reproducing Britain’s greatest celebrities obtains. _ At a dinner given to Lord Roberts a few weeks ago, at a small but ex- cljusive club, the butter on the table was moulded in the image and likeâ€" ness of the gallant and noble guest, an example which was followed by Mr. I. Z. Deakin, an architect of Westminster, who, at a private dinâ€" ner which he gave last month, pro- duced the bust of the King in butter- pats. Butter as a dairy product is a ‘eonimodity man cannot do without, but since it can be turned into beau- til‘ul models, as neatly done as mas- terpieces carved in marble, its value is doubled, if not trebled. . Miniature busts of noted authors, composers, artists, statesmen, and royalties, 'dotted about on a table already laden with flowers and tempting edibles and fin-{deâ€"Siecle deâ€" licacies of every description, enhance the epicurean surroundings, just as the "Dreaming Iolanthe”â€"â€"-a statuette made of butter by Lady Caroline Brooksâ€"raised'the tone of the gathâ€" ering assembled, on festival bent, at ‘s. hall in .Whitechapel last May. THE POORLYâ€"OFF GUESTS made it a study, and no doubt all tried to do something like it with the scanty remains of their own butâ€" ter when they returned home that night, There are few people who are not gifted with the artistic talâ€" ent, and the vein is humored when it is put to a pleasing yet simple test like that. Butter busts for the tables of the very wealthy are made by not more than three known butter-model arâ€" lists. gers,” for they turn out their models by hand. The newly made busts are put into a refrigerator, where they get iced, to prevent them from melting before use. At one of the sports clubs recently the pats of butter were made to furâ€" nish several items in connection with sports of all kinds; the favourite sports “pat” is a dog’s head. These heads and busts of humans, too, are made without the assistance of casts, with the exception of those, of the King and Queen, Prince and Princess of .Wales, Lord Roberts, Lord Kitchener, and a few other celebrities, whose presentment in but- ter can only be achieved by the but- ter fingers of an artist who has but a picture to go by. Butter busts are to be the butter pats of the future. .___.__+___- LAMBETIâ€"I PALACE. Historic PileIIs Crumbling After Eight Centuries. La... roll.

The Girl Who Will Make a Good Wife. The nervouse girl can be told by the manner in which’she breaks her bread and sips her soup. She eats in a quick, voracious manner, even though eating little, and with evi- dently very limited interest in the food for its own sake. Such a girl will never have the force or courage to pursue her ambitions. . The girl who eats steadily, as though it were a business to be got through, not sparing much interest to the talk going on round, or to the relifliable qualities of the vian’ds, is the systematic, practical girl who will make a good wife and orderly housekeeper. _ The ‘girl of headless view is told’by the spoon left upright in the halfâ€" drained cup, the knife and fork left at cross angles, and the chair push- ed back just as she arose from it. The girl who eats very slowly, even while not consuming much, munching her mouthfuls deliberately and surely, is of unpractical turnâ€" given to, undervaluing things that the majority of people count as of most consequence. She is fastidious and aesthetic, destined never to make much Show in the world. The sort of girl to make a good helpmeet for a man is. she whose organ of taste is as alert as her other faculties; who cats in a notic- ing, discriminating way, that imâ€" plies her recognition of the impor- tance of matters usually considered humidrum. She does not hesitate to interrupt the most interesting talk by asking for another helping or for some condiment she lacks, and shows plainly her belief that the embroidâ€" ery of life should be subordinate to the main material. __..__+___T_ HORSES EDUCATED.

Upon inquiring of the proâ€" prietor of the inn the meaning of this notice, one may learn that a previous landlord was also a “horse breaker,” and this was his way of advertising. . ___.._+_._... WAS lllUURABLE BUT IS GURED JOSEPH. BOONE AT WOR'K AGAIN AFTER SEVEN YEARS ILLNESS. «u...- Discharged From the Hospital as Incurable, He Used Dodd’s Kid- ney Pills With Splendid Results. Cottle's Cove, New Day, Nfld. Oct. 10.â€"â€"(Special).â€"-After being for seven years a hopeless invalid, unable to work and racked by aches and pains, Joseph Boone of this place is back at his old work as a fisherman. It sounds like a miracle but it is notâ€" it was Kidney Disease was the mat- ter with him. Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured him. "It is something worth relating what Dodd’s Kidney Pills have done for me,” says Mr. Boone, "and I am glad to tell it. I. had doctored with several doctors and after seven months in the hospital was sent home as incurable. “Richard Quirk, who had been curâ€" ed by Do'dd’s Kidney Pills, advised me to try them and I did. I took 21 boxes before I was able to go to work. But I can hardly believe it is myself is in it all after all those years of suffering.” Dodd’s Kidney Pills never fail to cure all forms of Kidney Disease from Backache to Bright’s Disease. Thousands of cured will tell you so. DISEASES AND SEASONS. Physicians say that certain disâ€" eases follow the changing seasons with almost clockwork regularity. Thus acute rheumatism prevails from February till April, inflammation of the lungs from March till May, stomâ€" ach and intestinal complaints in Augâ€" ust, and cholera from August to Oc- tober. On this basis some hygienists classify diseases into summer, au- tuimn, winter, and spring diseases. The classification is supported by many facts which show that weather changes really exert poworful influâ€" ences upon health and disease. To cope successfully with these changes and their harmful influences, daily exercise in the open air in all kinds of weather, and at all seasons of the year, is the best preparation. This toughens the system, and is at once prevention and cure. _¢._____ flow's This I We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward for an case of Catarrh that cannot be cured y Hall's Catarrh Cure. F. J.

It is a rule with many retail housâ€" es in Paris to metres of pavement in front of their premises for the better display of stock in trade, and as additional selling space, and at sale times the public pavement in front of some of the large drapery establishments is transformed not only into a shop, but into a “tryingâ€"on" department. Customers of both sexes think no~ thing of taking off their own hats to try on others, and getting into jackâ€" ets ticketed at five francs, or fourâ€" ” before the eycs of The scene is typically French, and passersâ€"by see nothing unusual in it, as, indeed. there is not on the other side of the Chan- nel. Passers-by, in fact, take to the gutterwhen the rush for bargains is great enough to entirely block the way. It is not only, however, the buyers and sellers of apparel who block the way. Others who reserve plenty of space for their own uses are the children in the Champs Elyseesâ€"and they are often pretty enough to be forgiven, though they do dig up with impunity many square feet of earth and gravel daily for their mud piesâ€"â€" who, with their nurses and the latest English innovation, the perambula~ tor, are masters of the situation.
