How the Romans Cooked Pea.
cock. -------

The most elegant dish of the Romans was
a stuffed peacock. A young peacock is eat
able when properly roasted, but an old one
is really very poor eating; but the Romans
used to prepare them in the following way {:
They selected those with the most beautiful
plumage, and stitled them to death, believ-
ing that that mode of killing gave more
brilliancy to the plumage. As soon as dead
they carefully split the bird open by an in
cisiOn all along the back, from the bill to
the rump. Then they took Outall the bones,
meat, ETC., leaving only the bones of the
legs to the first joint, those of the wings to
the second joint, and the head whole except
the brain, eyes and tongue. The inside of
the skin was now Immediately lined with a
coating of glue and filled with bran to keep
it in shape. The feathers that were spoiled
were vanished, and false but brilliant eyes
were placed instead OF the natural ones
When dry, the skin was filled with roasted
birds, or with the flesh of birds chopped
and cooked, and carefully sewed up. The
bird was served on large silver dish made
for that purpose. The dish was of an OBJ
long shape, and in the middle and soldered
to it, was something resembling the trunk
of tree with kind of limb on which the
bird was fastened. 1t was meant to look
Just as if it were alive, and resting itself on
perch, with an ear of milet in its bill. 1t
was always served at the beginning of the
dinner, aud was one of the last dishes eaten.
1t was always carved on the table, and
while the host was serving it, it was eti-
quette for one of the guests to harangue
upon the beauties of the plumage and the
excellence of the meat. '..-
The Romans were not deceived about the
excellence of the peacock's flesh. They
L., 81,
that not particle Of the birds meat had
been used. They somehow got into the
habit of speaking of the goodness of the
meat, and so they kept on doing so.
This is very likely the reason why we
read in many books that the species OF pea
cock eaten by the Romans has been lost,
and that it was entirely different from that
which we now have. Some believe also
that the kinds of locust aud of dOrmouse
eaten by them were not the same that exist
now. The reason is probaly no better.

WIN. C.Rrvant.

What curious glamour hangs around
the old days when our century and its
great men were both young! 1t is just
fifty years ago since William Cullen Bry-
ant published, in the North American Re-
view, "Thanatopsis," that poem which, Kit
North said, would alone have been suffi-
cient to establish the authors claim to the
honors of genius. 1t was composed four
years prior to the date of its publication,
when the poet was scarcely nineteen years
old. -r..... ,,,. .t... 81. .......
Up to 1926 Bryant resided in Great Bar
rington, Massachusetts,, chiefly occupied
with his profession, the law. His removal
to New York, which took place at that
time, was brought about by means of Hem
ry ID. Sedgewick, who procured for him the
position of editor of the New York Re-
view. This was the commencement of his
long career of journalism.
Cooper, the novelist, just then rising into
popularity, was living III New York at that
time. r.
"Come to dine with me-" said he, one
day, to Bryant. "Ilive at No. 345 Greenwich
street." .t.....
"Put that down for me-" answered Bry-
ant, "or shall forget the place."
Cant you remember rthree-four--five ~
asked Cooper, bluntly.
Bryant did remember ''three- -four-fve''
forever afterward, for he formed with
Cooper an intimate friendship. ~.
The poet Halleck was also one of our au-
thor's first and warmest friends. While the
New York Review was under Bryant's ed
itorship, Willis wrote poems for it; Ban
croft, the historian, wrote metrical trans
Ilations and Richard II. Dana contributed
to it his first published poem, "The Dying
Raven" g.a- .I. h...,....r ,..'l
How strange it seems to think of those
merry young fellows turned to gray boards,

youth blossoms again into Immortality. a.,

men, not as improbable boys, or other ques-
tionable nondescripts. Female beauty,
archness, and mobility can all be diverted
into decorous and amusing channels, with
out being pressed into competition with
that impudence whose professional eXpon-
eDts- had once gallery set part in our
playhouses. We perhaps owe all this to
the introduction of spectacle; but there
is sort of crave for it nOw which must be
regarded from every point of view as de-
plorable. The practice. is initiated in a
clumsier style at certain music halls, and
no entertainment in London appears to be
complete without whole troops OF young
girls who can not be intended for anything
but exhibition, inasmuch as they have no
idea whatever of dancing. The idiotic
gambols in which they keep time to the
music are painful to witness.
A thick -ankled Taglioni flouncing heav-
lily twice, and then, with immense and evil
dent exertiOn,, sustaining herself on one
leg; or a would-be Cerito coming out with
a flip-flap and a course of hops, and then
running away with the grace of Cochin
China fowl; such is the style of the modern
ballet as encouraged at the slngiDg-taV-
erns. The partners who engage in fig
ures with these brilliant performers are got
up like our pretty actresses, and never ven
ture a Jacket longer than thaG OF coast
guard man.. However, they are unable, in
Consequence OF the law, to become quite as
Olympan as the latter. Their diversions
are limited to dumb-show, but they make
the most of the opportunities within their
reach. 1t is really pity to prevent them
from emphasizing their sportiveness with
the slang choruses and dialogues of the
burlesque.
AS far as intellect, refinement, or decency
is concerned, there is no distinction between
what they do and what the pretty actresses
do. Both contribute the same degree of
moral entertainment to the minds of their
respective audiences. Both are encouraged
by similar expressions of approval and
qualification. The appetite fed by manage
rial enterprise at the theaters is Identical
with that which the music-hall proprietors
endeavor to satisfy. To be assured of this
we have only to watch the old boy, well
padded and preserved, with his rheumy
eyes fixed on the stage while Diana eXhorts
her attendant nymphs, and compare the
pious and intelligent expression of his
countenance with that of an honest old me-
chanic or shop-keeper who is making a
night of it at music-hall, and rapping his
dingy knuckles on the beer-damp tables
while the premiere danseuse shakes her toe
on level with the top OF his head.

MUSHROOM CULTURE.-Good mushrooms
are among the highest luXuries to
be obtained from the garden, and
country gentlemen should be able to
procure an abundance of them. The lux
ury is very expensive ono, particularly
to those who keep highly fed horses and
have q spare nook in warm clubhouse.
There is hardly country or suburban
residence about which one could not find q
place to make a capital mushroom bed
not merely to afford mushrooms in summer
or autumn, when, indeed, they may be
grown in the open air or in frames, but in
winter and early spring, when they are
considered far greater delicacv. ..
Of course the very large and we'll fur
nished kitchen garden will have its regular
mushroom house, with shelves and a thick
roof, and perhaps hot water pipes; but this
is an expensive kind of structure, and not
within the reach of numbers who can
spare an outhouse for their culture. 1t
should always follow good wineries, and
these are far from being so prevalent as we
desire to see them. But the regular mush-
room house is by no means SO necessary for
the production of fine mushrooms as the
winery is for fine grapes. We have seen
many mushroom beds and many mlsh-
room houses. but the best bed we ever saw.
was in a small empty stable with walls and
roof and doors, rather close and warm.
There are hundreds of. similar structures
empty or unused for few months in the
year, whereof an equally good use might
be made. .........
Any building impervious to cold and
draughts will do. A cellar would do WELL
but it is not often convenient to place the
heating material in such a place. A good
warm shed would also do, but not so we'll
as if the roof is unceiled, as cold cannot be
so efficiently excluded. The stable in
which we saw mushrooms so we'll grown
was warm, quite free from draughts, en-
tered by one door only; and, by. a little

The Fastest type Setting ON Rec
- - -NI- ----- 0rd. 49,. Ill Ill =

In the Office of a Wisconsin journal there
is a cOmpositOr who sets type so rapidly
that the friction of his movements fuses
the loaded emblems in his stick, making
them solid, like a stereotype plate. The
only way to prevent this is to have his case
submerged in water, and the rapidity of
his motions keeps the water boiling and
bubbling, so that eggs have frequently
boiled in the space box. Pipes lead from
press room, and the steam generated by
the fast compositor's motions runs the pow
rpress. In one day he set so much type
that it took all hands, from editor to devil,
