smoking foreman had been using to-

the forms and mixed up the two ed

"The concert gwen last evening

was highly appreciated. They were
elegantly dressed and sang in most
charming manner, winning the
plaudits of the entire audience, who
pronounced them the finest short
horns in the county. A few OF them

Sir:-The contract for supplying

seventy-five thousand (75, 900 lbs.
of Baking Powder during the en-
suing year has been awarded to
Heeker's Perfect Baking Powder,
it having been tested by DIR. Ed
ward G. Love, analytical chemist
for the government, and recon-
mended by him for it's excellence
and because it contained a higher
percentage of gas (Which means it

powders which he examined. The
samples analysed by DIR. Love were
furnished by the government COM

and designated with a number
known only to the commissioners.

its superiority is acknowledged,

Roman Cooks a nd Gourman ds


In Juvenal's time the salary of good cook
WAS ten times higher than that of tutor, a
man of learning and ability, who, according
to Lucian, was deemed well paid with 200
sesterces year. The salary of Dionysia, a
danseuse, WIS 200, 900. The houses and es-
adjustments of the two players in panto-
mime, Bathyllus and Pylades, rivaled those
of the richest patricians. There were thre6
Romans named Apicius, each celebrated for
devotion to gastronomy. The second, who
flourished under Tberius, was the most
famous, and enjoys the credit of having
shown both discrimination and industry in
the qualification of his appetite so much so
that his name has passed into synonym for
an accomplished epicdre. After spending
about $500, 600 on his palate, he balanced
his books, and finding that he had not much
avoid living upon such a pittance. Lem
priere's version is that he made mistake in
casting up his books, and hanged himself
under Q false impression of insolvency. A
noted betting man, named Smith, made q
similar mistake in casting up his book for
the Derby, and flung himself into the sea.
He was ished out, discovered the mistake,
and ever since went by the name of Neptune
Smith Apicius unluckily had no kind friend
to cut him down. The outrageous absurdi-
ties of Elagabalus equaled or surpassed those
of Caligula and Nero He fed the officers of
his palace with the brains of pheasants and
thrushes, the eggs of cartridges, and the
heads of parrots. Among the dishes served
at his own table were peas mashed with
grains of gold, beans fricasseed with morsels
of amber, and rice mixed with pearls. His
meals were frequently composed of % ser
vices. Turning roofs threw flowers with
such profusion on the guests that they were
nearly smothered. At the sea side he never
ate fish. but when far inland he caused the
roe of the rarest to be distributed among his
suite. He was the first Roman who ever
wore complete dress of silk. His shoes
glittered with rubies and emeralds, and his
chariots were of gold, inlaid with precious
stones With the view to becoming suicide,
he had cords of purple silk, poisons inclosed
in emeralds, and richly set daggers but
either his courage failed when the moment
arrived for choosing between these elegant
instruments of death, or no time was left
him for the choice. He was killed in an in
surrection of the soldiery in the eighteenth
year of his age, after reign of nearly four
years, during which the Roman people had
endured the insane and degrading tyranny of
boy.
