How to Eat an Oyster.

~.Golten Rule. - E.s~-
An oyster has to be taken as a
whole and respected as such. II re
fuse to be dealt With in detail, and be
attempts it makes gastronomic fail
ure of no small magnitude. There is
only one way in which an oyster can
be eaten. Taere lie on the shell,
hard, white and plump, it's convoluted
edges matching the rim of the ashell.
You pass the thin blade of your knife
carefully under it and release the
fibrous heart from its pearly connect
ion Then you lay your knife down. take
the frontal edge of the oyster firmly
between your thumb and finger, bring
it up in front of your face in close
connection which your lips, look at it
an instant, lay your head back, shut
your eyes. open your mouth, place
the delicious morsel on your tongue
so as to sense its fine saltiness, then
let go your hold of it,, and-aways it
goes, as slowly and as easily as a ship
glides from the stays into the welcom-
ing sea- Whoever has done this deed
once, and felt the full physical rapt-
ure of if, has one memory, at least,
that will never die while the senses OF
the palate remain. Not only is there
proper way to eat an oyster, but
there is a proper way to prepare an
oyster to be eaten. And as regards
roasting, this is the way: First and
foremost among the requisites is a
good old-fashioned fireplace with its
stone hearth, its white ashes, its glow
ing bed of Goals. and it's brigt t.,
roaring flame, Now draw up your
low chairs and your stools, a tiny tray,
coarse towel and short, thin-blad-
ed knife on every lap, and a plate of
bread and butter on the floor at your
side. Set bushel basket full of
oysters, large as the palm of your
hand and shaped like scallop, at the
corner of the fireplace, and pitcher
of sweet slider on the sideboard. Now
we are ready. The host stands, tongs
in hands, and with nimble motions
places twenty of the big fellows on
the carefully laid, blazing sticks.
The silence of expectation falls upon
the groop. Every eye is fast n on the
bivales.T Whiz, buzz, sputter, bang
Now the sport begins. How the ex-
plosions follow each other! How the
tongs fly in and out and of the
fire! How the plates rattle How
the jokes fly ! How the laughter bursts
out and peals through the old home
How the chimney roarsi How the
bread and butter and cider vanish !!

You will come out q man. In the

Beautiful Women Captured and En-
II salauad 8HNasE Z

2 oa0bO0' ~ q "a q g. q.
The capture Of Turkman women
by the Persian Governors is one of
the great crimes of Persian rule in
the districts east of the Caspian
sea. "An ORDER" says Major But
Ter, of the British army, . is sent
to one or more of the Governors of
those districts to the effect that no
presents have been forwarded to the
Shah by them of late, and if they
do not Immediately dispatch SUBJ
stantial gifts another Governor will
be found to replace them. The dis
tracted Governor, who has already
robbed his own people until they
have nothing left to take. visit
fully turns his eyes and thoughts to
his rich neighbors, the Turkmans.
Forthwith he organizes an expedi-
ton, and sends forth spies to ascer-
tain at what point are encamped
the greatest number of Turkman
women and horses and the smallest
number Of men. This being ascer-
tanned, he starts at the dead of
night, accompanied by his murder
ing robbers, and swoops down upon
his unfortunate victims. : Those
Turkmans who are able to fight or
likely to give any future troubles ARE
ruthlessly murdered, and the old
men, the boys, wives, daughters
and sisters are bound hand
and foot and brought back into Per-
sian territory. Then commences
scene disgraeeful alike to humanity
and morality. The old women and
infants are separated from the
young and beautiful land many Of
the Turkman women are very beau
tifuD; every point of the latter is
looked into and discussed by the
men told off for this purpose, just
as the intended purchaser Of
horse trots out the animal to exam
inc him. Those possessing the best
points are sent off to the shah and
other great men at Teheran. Those
with some fault or other are kept
by the Governor himself, and
distributed among bis favorites,
high and low, his servants being
generously treated in the distribu-
ton of the human spoil. The
horses and other stolen property are
likewise disposed of. But what be-
comes Of the old women and little
ones ? s These are locked up until
some Turkman relation can buy
their release for twenty OF, twenty
five pounds each; and if this hap.
Ply arrangement can not be effected,
they probably die Of starvation. I
could mention many startling in
stances of the above which have
lately taken place. There is a
regular season for these expeditions.
commencing about April and end
ing about October. I assert that the
Iurkmans never give any cause
whatever to the Persians for these
barbarities, and that all the maraud-
ing and kidnapping is on the part
of the Persians. When any
Persianss fall into the hands
of the Turmans it is during one of
these robbing expeditions, begun
and carried out by the Persians
themselves, the Turkmans fighting
solely in their own defense. I know
large towns in Khorassan, in every
house of which is Turkman female
slave, taken in the manner above
described when yet young from a
loving husband or a devoted and
broken-hearted mother"
