Proverbs for the Table.

fast well, feast well. A wise cook fondles his fire. Diplomacy lieth under the dish sever. Discretion is the proper sattee for cheese. Let the doubting cook roast his fish. Court the onion and flee the doctor. A bad dinner is often redeemed by a good salad. Rare beef and well-cooked fish betray a wise cook. Peace hideth herself under the lid of the well-managed pot. True economy in the household has heaven for its banker. Neither the nibbier nor the glutton knoweth the value of feast. He who eateth without drink buildeth his well without mortar. Drink milk and wine, but keep tbem wide Mart| Who joins their virtues will ins stomach Eat like a hearty man. Drink like a sick one; So may Ws Utttespaa Not be too ful —The Caterer.
