The London Daily News says that !,n England the whole theory of the day’s meals is being altered. ~Business men now make their lunch in the city practi- cally a dinner, take a certsin amount of rest after it, and the close of business go home to a lichter supper. Among those who maintain the old order of things the dinner hour is earlier than formerly. In the West and South in this country the favorite practica is to have dinner at mid day or early in_the_ afternoon, and it is observable in New York that many Jersey commuters get their big meal of the day at noon, after the style of the London business man.—New York World. .
