But taey were not, and we sought quarters for the night at a century-old bodega y posada, or inn, where we were received as men of distinction in- deed. This, however, was wholly in the ethical sense. It in nowlse bettered the quality of our food, ministered to our bodily needs, or cleared the filth, fleas, and cobwebs from our dim old aicobas.

REVOLUTIONARY FEELINGS.

Perhaps life ‘never can assume a more picturesque interest to an American than when catching a glimpse of Uhis stately living, which bas birth, antiquity, and ‘wealth behind it, Such a condition of things never comes to us Americans. Our country life must be very simple in comparison, and itis for the most Part so lonely for the rich, that they forsake their people have cold meats and warm their dinner summer, afew years ago in taking a walking tour, nothing ‘obtainable at farn-houses or country tav- erns but sodden pork fried in bad fat.

The brolled Msh, broiled chickens, brotled steaks and chops are diways satisfactory. The gridiron made St, Lawrence fit for heaven, and its qualities have been elevating and refining ever ‘since to our poor human nature. NEAR SEA AND CITY. ‘The housekeeper in a country neighbofhood near the sea has an ample store to cnoose from in the lobster and other crustacem and the fresh fish, yet these even at Newport are sent frst to the city, ‘where we get always the best fresii fab. In thé neighborhood of cities, tramps and burglars so abound that only plated silver should ve used. en at some of "at. houses, at Newport, 1¢ isostentatiously anounced that there ie not & Teal silver spoon in the house—nothing to steal. For deserts, One would think the country nelghbor- hood would be peerless, Fresh berries and cream, the frutt tart, and with the advantages of the pa- tent ice-cream freezer, good home-made cake also sounds very appetizing. And yet how often 1s ‘hat unhealthy abomination, “canned peaches,” set before the Visitor Who has sighed for the wil Wood flavor of afresh strawberry. As for the orna- mentation of her dinner, certainly te lady in a country neighborhood has the very best. She has wild-flowers and grasses, clovers ‘and buttercups, Hiiacs, and sweetpeas. “I cannot bring these sweetpeas to perfection,” said a pretty country lady, ‘Sidney Smith to her garden, “Then let me tection to the sweet- peas,” said the gallant old fellow, offering an arm, A country garden 1s a boon to a tired cit., par- tcularly if itis one of the old-fashioned gardens, ‘with llacs, hollyhocks, mignonette, and violets, ‘THE COUNTRY DINNER. And for a country dinner the table should be near the window, or windows, if possible, In fine weather it should be on the veranda, looking into the garden, And if one must dine in a smalf room Jet the carving be done outside, and all the greasy Gishes Kept out of sight. There should be a side Doard and side tables, on which relays of knives, forks and spoons, dishes and glasses not in use, can stand; the soiled dishes should be carriea out of sight. ‘A maid servant should be taught how to carve, and how to serve thedinner neatly. Soup fora country dinner should be clear Julienne, or ehicken, or some light affair. The ieavy soups are notin order. If the Indy of the house have a a talent for cookery, she wili have her soups made the day before, 30 ‘they will be free from grease, and she should season them herself, uniess she has a good cook. It 1s better in a country house to have some cold dish that will serve as resource if the cook should leave. Melton veal 1s an admir- able thing to tall back upon. It can be made on a Saturday and williast a week, It is made of alter- nate layers of veal and ham, highly seasoned and Daked in a pastry, and 1s very nice, No lady should attempt to entertain much in the country, unless she has a good cook and a competent waiter, else it is but a slavery. CHERRFUL DINING-ROOMS, ‘There 1s a curious lack in America, The dining- rooms of country houses are generally small and not cheerfully furnished. ‘The more modern houses ‘are improving in this respect, and we have lately seen many & large room With a good outlook, or with hard wood floor or matting, or with India Tugs. The table should be round or oval. ‘The chairs of some hard Wood, with cane. ‘rhe tabie- cloth of fine damask, smelling of lavender; colored ¢lotns are only permissible for dinner and tea, ‘The matter of ligating rooms troubies people who live in country neighborhoods. If there 1 no candles are pretty, but very troublesome, ‘The wind blows Lue fame to aud fro, insects flutter nto the ame, an unhappy moth seats himself on the Wick, and, Durning tuto an unsightly cadaver, makes a gutter down one side; the little red pavet shades take Ore, and there is éndiess trouble. Ke- rosene smelis abominably. However, a pretty carcel or moderator lamp, With transparent shade, is the best thing. And how they com: with long brass standards, very oonventent. People who have a town house do not take their best china to ‘Une country, It 1s well to have an inexpensive sev which can be left there. Glass and tea cups should De thin and fine. One does not like th@thick edges of a tavern tea cup. AMUSEMENT OF GUESTS. Now, how to amuse a guest in the country isone of the questions which a young hostess will surely ask, Lawn tennis seems to be the solvent, so far ‘as the young are concerned, Every country place Should have a lawn tenuis court. Archery hos not yet become acclimated in America, but tere are clubs in certain circles which promise a future for this game. Yachting is a favorite summer en- tertainment, and adds much to the ease of coun- ty neighborhoods ear the vex or, perhaps we should call it “going a sailing” ‘opulent young people near New York, who keep horses and dogs, Who can offer everytody 4 “imount,” and e them to the hunt, have great facilities for en- vertaining guests, But noincompetent rider should ever get on a friend's horse.
