Why We Butter Our Bread.

The layers of the wheat berry, as we
proceed toward the center, become more
and more completely starchy, and atthe
center but little else is found, and this
portion makes our finest -four. The finer
the flour the less fit it is for nutrition.
In its natural state the wheat, with all
its components present, is not fitted ior
perfect human development. There is q
deficiency in the potential heat-produc-
ing materials, especially for cooler cli-
mates, there being only two pcs centum
of fat in wheat. Weinstinctively supply
this deficiency by the addition of fatty
bodies. We spread butter upon bread,
we minglc lard or butter with our bis
cult or cake, and the fat meat and bread
are taken alternatively or coincident-
ally. The starch, being a carbon hy-
drate, can afford, comparatively but lit
tie heat 10 consumption; and the fats are
demanded by the wants of the system.

4 Pen Picture of the California China.
man.

The Chinaman seems never to have
learned TO walk. He waddles along at a
gait somewhat between a swagger and
shuttle, and he has no more respect for
the rules of the road in turning out for
passers-by than of the sixth command
ment. That beautiful self-conceit
which makes him look on everyone who
doesn't wear a pig-tail as barbarian,
renders him impervious to all the abuses
which his heedlessness brings upon
him. He generally wears n hat Of
American manufactured low black
felt with narrow rim. Thisis about the
only garment that he has condescended
to borrow from the wardrobe of the
country. The remainder of his dress is
of the latest Celestial style, which
changes not with the changing seasons,
but has probably been handed down
along with the heavy moral platitudes
of Confucius, from the time when the
world was young. 1t consists of a
blouse OF blue cloth or nankeen or coarse
overall goods, generally smeared with a
line of grease down the back, the mark
of the dangling queue, His trousers
are made of all kinds of material, but
they are always blue or black, and never
reach below his ankles. This is to give
good display to the white socks and
the shoes of theregulation junk pattern,
curving toes and soes an inch thick. Oc-
casionally one may see here the Chinese
woman dressed in nearly the same gar
ments as the man, the only difference be-
ing more voluminous trousers and an
absence of all head covering. Instead
of the latter the Chinese women display
an elaborate coilIure, which may well
excite the envy of the feminine OBJ
server, rs it is work of art. Her jew
elry is of the Oriental style, large, mas
sive and generally plain. Her earrings
are heavy bands of gold, as large around
as napkin rings, and are IA constant
temptation to the impecunious hoodlum

Won MOItke at Home.

Count Moltke now lives in the new
general staff building, in the Konigs-
piatz. His manner of life is extremely
regular and simple, daily routine being
strictly followed. During the winter
months Count Moltke enters his study,
which is very plainly furnished, every
morning at seven O'Clock, and takes his
morning coffee, smoking cigar with it
He then works until nine O'clock, when
all theservice letters which have arrived
are brought into him. These he goes
through carefully, and then changes his
morning cloth for uniform. At eleven
o'clock he takes a plain sec md break
fast, receives his adjutants, and write ;
until two o'clock in the afternoon. AS
the clock strikes two, the reception OF
the chiefs of the different sections of the
general staff begins. The time occupied
in transacting business with them varies
according to circumstances, and when
they are all gone, Count Moltke, as a
rule, takes q walk or ride, returning
l!ome to dine with his family. From
5 p. NJ. TO 7 P. NJ. the hours are again
occupied in writing, and from I p. NJ. to
sP. NJ. the newspapers that have arrived
are looked through. AT eight o'clock
Count Moltke takes tea with his family,
and afterward plays q rubber at whist,
a game in which the great strategist
excels. The evening generally finishes
with music, and at IL p. NJ. Count
Moltke retires for the night, TO rise again

Life in st. Petersburg.

st. Petersburg is city of gourmets
The long nights in winter, and the ex-
cessive cold and discomfort out of doors,
drive the inhabitants to indoor pleas
ures. They consequently pay great at
tention to the cuisine, and the cooks be.
come cordOn-bIeuS. The best cuisine,
is, of course, the French, and there are
French chefs in many of the houses, but
the Russians have number of national
dishes they are fond OF, especially soup
cabbage soup eaten with sour cream,
cucumber soup, and a cold sour soup,
which is not very agreeable to foreign
palate. The root vegetables, turnips,
beets, ETC., are remarkably good; so are
watermelons and cucumbers, while
game. snipe, woodcock, partridges, haz !
grouse, black COCK, cogs du bois and
hare are all abundant in their season
and good. In the way Of fish, the sal
mon is excellent, and they have trout,
potfsh, potch, grayling sequis, some
what like striped bass, and the famous
sterlet, which we do not think deserves
its reputation. It's roe makes the best
cavaire. 'H'aH "H '2H
The regular Russian restaurant is not
10 be seen in perfection in st. Petersburg.
There is one in Moscow they call the
Hermitage, which is thoroughly Rus
sian. A feature of these restaurants is
an immense mechanical organ, which
grinds out lively airs during dinner.
One can hardly talk. The correct thing
TO do is to take before dinner ga.
couska which, being interpreted
means preliminary lunch, a small
glass of liquor generally wodki,"
with salt fish or cavaire, or little
cheese. This is supposed to whet dulled
appetite.
Besides the pleasure of the table, the
Russians rely greatly upon cards to pass
the long winter evenings. They play
great deal, and play high. Whist, with
some notifications in the counting;
baccarat, and a game they call "quinSa," !"
something like Boston," are their prin-
cipal games. The great national game
Of poker is unknown among them, but
its attractions are Just beginning to be
appreciated. Cards are a monopoly in
Russia, and their importation is strictly
prohibited. The profits on their sales
go to the support Of the founding hos
pital, and it is magnifcently supported.
Any infant can be brought there, and no
questions are asked either as regards the
mother or child, and no payment Is
necessary. 1t is said to be the only
place in Russia where no passport is re-
quired.

themselves. That there is much in their
condition in the South, the committee say,
to be deplored, no one will deny. That their
condition is gradually improving in every re-
spect, is really true.
The clashings, the committee say, between
the two races is neither TO be denied or
wondered at, when we come to consider the
method in which these people were forced as
the result of bitter and desolating
civil war, and that for the purposes Of party
politics, these incompetent, ignorant, land
less, homeless people, without ny qualitica-
ton of citizenship, without any ties Of prop
erty or obligations Of education, we're sud-
denly thrown into political power, and the
effect was made not only to place them upon
an EQUALITY with their late masters, but ABB
solutely place them in front and hold them
there by legislation, by military violence,
and by every other means that could posi-
bly, be resorted to. When we consid these
things no philosophical person can behold
their present condition and the present COM
parative state of peace and amity between
the two races without wonder that their con-
diton is as good as it is.
The report is signed by Senators Vance,
Voorhees, and Pendleton.

vested as fast as the best reapers and self
binders can do it, In some quarters COM

ever, will, il is believed, make 20 bushels to
the acre.
