SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.
Itulrs That SIny Piifuly Ilo Observed by
Tverj body nt Taltlo
As an Invited guest novcr lie into for dim
ncr. This is nn Incivility to your host, to
tho other guests nnd to tho dinner. Don't bo
lato nt tho domestic- tnblo, as this Is wrong to
your family nnd Is not calculated to promoto
nariuouy nnu goon icciing.
Do caroful not to seat yoursolf nt the tnblo
until your host or hostess gives tho slgnnl.
A gontlemnn ought never to seat himself
until tho Indie aro all soitcd.
Nover servo gentlemen guostsatyour table
until all tho ladies aro served, Including
thoso who nro members of your own house
hold Do not eat soup from tho end of tho spoon,
but from tho side, Tnko caro not togurglo,
draw lu your breath or mako other noises
when eating soup. Do not ask for n second
service of soup.
Do not blto your bread from tho slice, but
break It ofT, n little nt n thno, as you require
It, It Is consldored 111 bred to break or
crumb bread Into your soup nt n dinner
party.
Avoid eating vegetnblos with n spoon. Eat
thoso with a fork. In n word, observe the
rule not to eat anything with n spoon that
can bo eaten with a fork.
Do not devour tho last mouthful of soup,
tho last fragment of bread, tho last morsel of
food.
Never stretch across another's pinto In or
der to reach anything; avoid nsklng your

A gentleman, should not fall, nt dinner,
to rise when the ladles leavo tho table. Re

Society's Demand of a Ho t trs.
Certain hostesses In curtain cities have be
come enormous social powers; they have tact
nnd Intelligence, thoy become tho admired of
men nnd the envied of women. Certain wo
men who have no social position know that
if they nre seen nt such a house, Introduced
by such a woman, tholr social position can
bo advanced. As such n hostess is very apt
to bo good hearted, many uudcslrablo people
get Into society through her good naturcd but
Inconsiderate introductions. Society may be
a falso condition of things, but it demands of
n hostess tho highest order of virtues. She
must bnvo solf possession, memory nnd tact,
coolness and gentleness, and composure, po
ll tonesa and seronlty, Hut she must also havo
tho negative virtue of knowing whom not .to
introduce, sometime a very hard thing to
Kaow.
Don't Make Endless Adleux.
Avoid making endless adloux in parting
with friends. Tlio woman who begins at th
top of tho stairs, and overflows with fare
well nnd parting admonitions every stop on
tho way down, nnd reiat thorn a hundred
tlmm at tho door, simply madden tho man
who Is her escort, he he br husband or lover.

Knowing there nro innny spurious ciders sold In this market we offer I lie nbov
explanation with the eminent testimonial of Piof. J. II. Long. Very Respectfully,
THE G. M. JARVIS CO., Sole Proprietors,
San Jose, California. 39 x. Stnte Street Chieng .
THE G. M. JARVIS CO., Gentlemen: '
I have made made a chemical examliintfon of the snmple of Jarvls' Pear Cider
submitted to me n few days ngo, and would report these points among others noted.
The liquid is non-nlcohollc and hns a specific gravity of 10.65. The total cxtrne
live matter amounts to 10.25 er cent., containing only .025 per cent of free ncld. The
tests show this acid to bo malic acid as usually found in fruit juices. I find no olhcr
ncld or foreign substance ndded for color or flavor.
I believe ib. therefore, to consist simply of the juice of the Pear ns represented.
Yours truly,
J. II. LONG, Analytical Chemist,
Chicago Medical College,
THE CM. JARVIS Cft THE G, M JARVIS CO
