SHAKESPEAREAN DINING.
A most charming way to vary the
entertainments and receptions that are
so much the rage now would be a
Shakespearean dining.
The hostess and her guests might
don appropriate costumes. The effect
of so many correct and artistic Shak
espearean dresses would be very bril
liant and charming.
The following menu could be used
with variations.
Menu:
Oysters: “Love may transform me
to an oyster—Much Ado About Noth
ing. 11., I
Turkey.
“Here’s a fowl without a feather.’’ —
Comedy of Errors. —111., I.
Salad:
“And my pretty little tiny kick
shaws. —Henry IV., V, I.
Sweets:
“Sweets to the sweet.” —Hamlet.
Dessert.
“Taste the fruit.” —Pericles.
These menu cards could be decorat
ed very prettily with pansies and the
same flowers might be used on the
table.
A still prettier luncheon might be
devised from “Anthony and Cleopat
ra.” The invitations being an ingen
ious combination of quotations from
that play as follows:
“Good Madam: ‘I am disposed to
mirth and with most gladness I do in
vite you for Thursday at twelve
o’clock.’ ‘Yours, etc.’ ”
Violets, the flower that Shapke
speare refers to so often could be
massed upon the table and tiny gilt
baskets filled with them for favors.
The menu as follows:
“Bring in the banquet quickly.”
Oysters:
“This treasure of an oyster.”
Salad:
“My salad days when I was green in
judgment.”
Olives:
“The three nook’d world shall bear
the olive freely.”
Sweets:
“A dish for the gods.”
Figs.
“I love long life better than figs.”
Fruit:
“A morsel for a monarch.”
Coffee:
“Reconcile yourselves to the drink/’
Roman Punch:
“O’erows the measures.”
Os course, these menus are mere
outlines to be filled in with anything
the fashion of the moment may dic
tate. I only wish to prove Shakes
peare’s adapatability to entertaining.
After lunch, a delightful program
could be carried out which could be
written out on dainty cards as follows:
Salve!
Tennyson’s Cleopatra. —“Age can
not wither.”
Little’s Anthony and Cleopatra.—
“Speak softly, wake her not.”
Many of Shakespeare’s songs have
been set to music, and would be lovely
to introduce, with the appropriate
quotation, “Give me some music.”
A sketch of Anthony, “who madly
flung a world away,” could be intro
duced; and a discussion indulged in as
regards Cleopatra’s charm. Some one
having suggested, recently that it was
versatility that so won the hearts of
men.
First Aid to the Skin.
In *ll cases of skin diseases use Tetterine.
Nothing else is required. Don’t bother about
naming the disease, simply use Tetterine and
it will disappear. Rev. A. 0. Turner, Lake
land, Fla., states that Tetterine cured him of
Eczema of 20 years* standing and says: “I
shall ever remember the makers as this val
uable remedy with gratitude.”

HOW TO BE MISERABLE.
Think about yourself; about what
you want, what you like, what respect
people ought to pay you, what people
think of you, and then to you noth
ing will be pure. You will spoil ev
ching you touch; you will make sin
ana misery for yourself out of every
thing whicn God sends you; you will
be as wretched as you choose on
earth or in heaven, either.
in heaven, either, I say. For that
proud, greedy, selfish, self-seeking
spirit would turn heaven into hell. It
did turn heaven into hell for the great
devil himself. It was by pride, by
seeking his own glory, (so at least
the wise men say) that he fell from
heaven to hell.
He was not content to give up his
own will and do God’s will, like the
other angels. He was not content to
serve God and rejoice in God’s glory,
he would be master himself and re
joice in his own glory; and so, when
he wanted to make a private heaven
of his own he found that he had made
a hell.
When he wanted to be a little god
for himself, he lost the life of the true
God, to lose which is eternal death.
And why? Because his heart was
not pure, honest, clean, simple, un
selfish. Therefore he saw God no
more, and learned to hate Him whose
name is Love. —Exchange.
