Tbut our ancestors were not so woII managed ns we are is evident from the ■ following rules, which were laid down by Tom m a si u von Zlrkler. a German ; poet, In regard to the conduct of a host ! and his guest at a dinner party. These , singular maxims were recently un earthed and have now been reprinted: “Every host should take care that ! his guests have enough to eat and that i they are not served with dishes that they do not want. In return the guests should heliave properly and should he ' satisfied with whatever 1s placed he- i fore them. “A guest should not eat all his bread i before the first dishes are served, nei ther should he eat with both hands nor drink nor talk when his mouth Ih full. * It Is not polite to turn toward one's neighbor and to offer him a wlneoup from which one is still drinking. “One should not eat greedily and hastily, as though the dinner had been paid for, neither should one take any food from his neighbor’s plate. In a word, each person should accept what is offered and ask for nothing else. "When there Is some one on the right l^hil, It la permissible to eat with the l#ft hand. "While one is drinking the eyes should he steadily fixed on the wine cup. ‘It Is improper to place one’s hand in a dish while another person Is taking some food from it. “One should always have the hands clean and the nails cut short, as other wise those persons who are eating from the same dish are likely to become dis gusted. “A guest should never put his el bows on the table, neither should he chatter all the time nor clean his teeth with a knife." Chicago Herald. What Two Scotchmen Did. In the curly days of California two Scotchmen emigrated thither. One of them, nil enthusiastic lover of Scot land, took with him a thistle, the na tional emblem. The other took a small swarm of honeybees. Years have gone.

They Are Made For llie Moat Port In Farmers* llousee. “An odd occupation, surely,” salil a man acquainted with the business, "Is that of knitting pool table pockets A few persons find steady employment ut it, but the greater number of those en gaged in it take it up incidenUlly to some other employment. "Of all the pool pockets used the inr gest proportion is made In farmhouses by farmers’ wives and daughters. The women who do this work are mostly Germans and Swedes. “Pool table pockets are all hand made. The largest producer cf pool pockets is a concern In New York that employs at this work about thirty fum bles, these mostly residing on Long Is land. The bundles of material for the several families thus employed are made up In the shop and delivered to them, the finished pockets being at tbo same time collected. "The knitting Is done with a needle twenty Inches In length, and the pock ets are knitted with a peculiar knot that will not pull out. You might out a holo In a pocket with a knife, but the hole would go no farther. As the pock et la knitted It will not pull or draw apart. "Pool pockets are made of cotton, of wool and of silk. The flrst arc sold for $1.25 or thereabouts a dozen. Silk pockets sell for about $10 a dozen. "I should say that of nil the pockets made perhaps half are of cotton, three eighths of wool and one-elghtli of silk. The pockets are most commonly greeu, but they are made In other colors as well—In muroou, for example, and In yellow nnd In blue for tables with cloths In those colors. “Output? Well, the production of them Is somewhat scattered. I should say that It might amount unnually to about 10,000 dozen, valued on an aver age, roughly estimatod, at $4 a dczcn, making the total value of the output Bomewhere about $40,000."—New York Sun.

It Is one of those survivors which tell us of extinct groups of whose past existence we would other wise have remained forever Ignorant. These, the only species of four footed birds. Inhabit the island of Marnjo In the lower Amazon. It Is only during Infancy that this remarkable feature of these birds Is seeu, the two fore feet appearing early In the development of the embryo and continuing perfectly formed for several days after hatch ing, when they are gradually shed. It Is also known us the lioaetzln or evil smelling bird, the flesh having an un pleasant odor, making It uupalatablo to both man and carnivorous animals, which Is probably one cause of Its sur vival.
