It is perhape not too much to say that a dinner party thoroughly good In menu, cook ery, service, asthetlo appliances of sheen nnd color, culinary chemistry, and Inst, though by no moan least, in tho guests with educated palates, affords altogether the strongest every day evidence, of high civil isation, nrutea feed. The best barbarian only eats. Only the cultured man can dine. Dinner la no longer a meal, but an Institu tion. A largo part of tho important work of tho civilised world i accon.pl Ished or reg ulated at social dinner. In Washington, not only diplomatic, but many legislative nnd official transactions, nro arranged at dinner. The Kitlon of tho particliaiiU of any formal repast has been attended by Intricate punctilios. Tho most modern and most ju dicious arrangement of tho guesta nt a din ner party disreganla their social or official importance, and seats them with reference to their ierhonnl peculiarities, tastes and mu tual adaptation. Nevortheleos, thero still re mains a rello of former ceremonial in tho apparent necessity of tho host aud hostess to take into dinner and place at their respective right hand the most, distinguished two of opposite sex among their guests. But, apart from this distinction, the diagram of seat is arranged to promote agreeable conversation. The question a to wbo m to ue served nrst is one about which much ha been written by profesNon of etiquette. It Kmi now to be decided that on oooaslon where the enter talninrnt I given for the special honor of a jNsrtleitWr guest, or where aay one of the towr above the other in point of tVenttr, Nek ipaeat houU be Ant served.

Homo time after Dash becatno our dog a sailor brother brought from Malta a tiny white Mnlteso do,;. It wuksucIi a little, mite of n thing that It really looked moro llko n toy dog than n living ono.

At first Dash did not llko this newcomer, hut when Malta run to hhn and frisked nbout, nnd pretended to worry tho big dog' brown coat, then Dash becamo qutto friondly aud very soon ho would let Malta do just what he liked. Malta would climb over Dash, and pull him, nnd take the nicest bit ot his dinner awny, but tho big dug novor mndo nny objection. Ho would lie iu tlio yard blinking lazily at hi frolicsome friend with the utmost good humor. About thl tlmo wo were presented with n white kitten which wo named Suow.

Suddenly tho llttlo whlto cat was keen picking her way across tho wet yard, nnd going to tho kennel she calmly seated heielf iu tho doorway, while Dash retreated ln.ldev Ho consed whining, content now that ho had n compan ion, and Snow kept her plico until tho storm wns over, when sho rnmo Indoors.

Druggists' Lights. Tho origin of colored lights In druggists' windows is a follows: Originally the barber or leech exposed In hi window tho medicines ho had for sale. In time; when tho business of selling was separated from that of pro Rcriblug drugs, tho physician simply hung up a colored I uht. leaving tho druggists to ex- poso the modlclues, or tho colored water that took the place ot tho modlclues. Nowaday only the colored bottles remain, tho physi cian' lamps lelng fow anil far between. Window Tax. Tho window tax was first Imposed In Eng land In 1CJ5, to defray tho expenso of retain ing gold. It was increased iu 1740-7, again in 1778, and again in 17H4, when tho tea tax was commuted. It was further increased in 1707, lb03, and 1808, was reduced In 1833, and dually repealed in July, 1831; instead ot it, howover, a tax on inhabited houses was Im posed. Meaning of a Term. The meaning of "brown tudy" is given a 'a gloomy reverie," Brown is a dark color, being derived from tho Saxon word brun, meaning burned, and tho adjective was given to the state ot mind either because ot its sup posed dark aud brooding nature, or mors probably, becauso ot the shadowed aspeet of the countenance while one is in a "brown study." a 0 0 CO r- w w ' i to o 0 o 2 o (J) Jr . fv1 I. 0 .(D jif.ift5 a o o a a td o 0 J n 'j U4 P 3 () o 0 0 0 CD O Jarvis' California Pear Cider.

The total extrac tive matter amounts to 10.25 per cent., containing only .0.5 per cent of free acid. The tests show this acid to be malic acid as usually found In fruit juices.
