Formerly people got along very well without them; but it is different now, when it is so easy to provide them. And yet they are by uo means, even today, everywhere to be found. "You might eat today at the abund ant, the well-supplied and the well- equipped table of u family whose every member was the personification of kindly grace and hospitality, and yet find here your l'ood served to you ou cold plates; rugged people, these, by whom, out of some feeling bred in the days when luxuries were less common, hot plates would still be considered as a mark of concession to effeminacy. And by such a reason, indeed, might the eold plates be accounted for in some small hotels, off the beaten track, though in many another hotel their presence is due simply to slackness, Indifference or a failure to rise to modern conditions. “But the hot plate, by no means a sign of degeneracy, but one marking simply and rationally a desire to rise to our privileges, is everywhere spread ing; It will some day everywhere pre vail, and meanwhile when we eat where It has not yet come, let us be grateful then for the food."—Washing ton Post.
