"I
By MELLIFIOIA. Friday, Juno 19, 1914.
T WILL take all of tho groom's salary paylnj- for silver polish,"
was the facetious remark I heard at a wedding last season as tho
guests were admiring the wondorful array of silver gifts. I
thought of this romark as I read tho following artlclo on high
cost of living in tho Yalo Review i
"In the eighteenth century sllvor was scarce and high, notwithstand
ing tho quantities of antique sllvor now offered for sale. In colonial days
a teaspoon was scarcely larger than the after-dinner coffee spoon of today,
and as fow families had moro than ono or two, the lady who would take
tea with her neighbor carried her spoon in her retlculo. Today the ordi
nary every-day bride expects to Tecoivo a chest lth a doren each of fifteen
varieties of spoons, eleven of forks, six of knives, a set of tongs, and two
varieties of picks, thirty-five dozen, or 420 pieces; to this must bo added
not less than sixty-four servico pieces, or a total of 484 pieces of flat sil
ver, as it is called, and only the latest and most painstaking of June
brides can bo quite certain of the real lntont of all of them. It costa us
more yearly to take care of tho silver wo now got than It cost our grand
mothers to buy all they really needed."
For Memphis Visiton.
