Proverbs for the Tabls.

Fast well, feast well. A wise cook fondles his fire. Diplomacy lieth under the dish Kfvet. Discretion is the proper sauee 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. Bare 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 nibbler nor the glutton knoweth the value of feast. He who eateth without drink buildeth his well without mortar. Drink milk and wine, but keep them wide ajjart; Who joins their virtues will hfo sfcomaoh UiRUt Eat like a hearty ma*. Drink like a sick on*; So may Ilia's little spaa Not be too ijtnok ram. —Tho Caterer.
