The Fork.

In the ancient world the fork for eat
ing was unknown, and the we'll bred
sought to display as much delicacy as
possible in the operation of conveying
food to the mouth with the fingers. 1t
was thousand years ago when the first
mention of the JorchettG was made in
Italian literature, and it was then spoken
OF as introduced into Venice by Byzan-
tine princess. It was at first not favora-
bly, received, and for two centuries came
little into use, either in Italy Or the rest
of Europe. No mention of a fork was
made in the catalogue of the table fur
nishings at the wedding of Maria Sforza-
V;sconti as late as 1893. Still, the 18th
century saw its use spreading in France,
and the 10th in Germany. 1t was n9t
until the 18th that it was introduced in
England.

Fruit Juices.

There is often decided objection to
the use of our coarsest fruits, especially
in sickness, or when the stomach or
bowels may be in 3 sensitive state, On
account of the irritation of the angular
and sharp seeds, and peel or skin. Like
the huh of the wheat-or hufls, IS
there are five differe2t layers, which
should be removed, in NEST If not all
cases, from the four-these seeds and
rinds are often sources Of irritation to
the sensitive coats of the stomach, caus-
ing many forms of disease, particularly
in the hot weather. 1t Is exceedingly
fortunate that these juices do not re-
quire digestion like the solids, but. like
water, enter the system unchanged,
there to he assimilated, of course afford
ing nutrition, with no use Of the digest
i've apparatus, or but slight effort, that

juices may be prepared ct this season,
thoroughly scaldsd, canned like fruit,
kept from the air and in . cool place,
and used in the following spring, when
such are exceedingly valuable, especially
for those having debilitated Digestion }

as will allow rest, time for the digestive
organs to recuperate and become sufh-
ciently strong to perform their usual
amount of labor.
Twill here remark that their use all
the time, instead of at the last meal, or
when the appetite may be particularly
imperfect, ,lwould tend to debilitate the
stomach, since, like all unused organs.
the time would come when it would lose
the power of action. As a general
principle, the substitution of these for
solids for one or two meals at most,
using the simplest form of solids, as the
raw egg, or boiled rice, would be as
much as would be advisable, save IN
extreme cases, when such nourishment
for a week or less would be q choice OF
evils.
Milk should not be regarded as OF this

The ExDensiyeness OF Modern Warfare.


The cost Of modern warfare is so
great it probably deters nations from
getting into Serious troubles, and for
that reason aids in making arbitration
popular Some idea of the expensive
ness Of the bombardment OF Alexandria
in July last may be gathered from the
cost Of each round fired by the iron-ciad
fleet. Every round fired from the
eighty-ton guns on the lnhcSlble cost
Sl27. 80 per gun. The twenty y-tive-ton
guns, of which the Alexandra carries
two, the Monarch four and the Teme-
raire four, cost $50 per round per gun.
The eighteen-ton guns. OF which the
Alexandra carries ten, the Sultan eight,
the Superb sixteen, and the Temerare
four, cost $26.25 per round per gun.
The twelve ton gun of which the In
vincihle carries ten, the Monarch two,
and the Sultan four, cost $l8 per round
per gun. The Penelope, which alone
carries nine-ton guns. has eight OF them,
which were iii charged at cost OF
$13.75 per round per gun. The Mon
arch and the Bittern each tired one SIX
and one-half-ton gun, the cost being
So. 85 er round per gun. The Beacon
and the Cyonet have two sixty-tour-
Founders each, the cost of discharging
which was $500 per round per gun.
The Penelope carries three forty pound,
ers, the Beacon two forty Founders, and
! the Bittern two forty-pounders, the cost
Of dlscharging which was $3 per round
| per gun. In addition to this there is
sum to be calculated for the firing oi
