Furnishing Families With Meals.

A new catering company is being
formed to furnish families with warm
meals, promptly and regularly deliy
cred to their addresses in newly inven-
ted wagons. 1t is proposed to erect a
large model kitchen in the vicinity of
Broadway and Thirty-fourth Street, to
be supplied with the best refrigerators,
store-rooms, offices and apparatus for
cooking, which will always be open to
the inspection of patrons and stockhold-
ers, the corporation being cooperative.
All supplies are to be bought in large
quantities, exclusively for cash, thus
insuring the lowest cost. The capital
stock is to be 100000, with 1900
shares at 1925 each; $40, 900 to be COM
mon stock and $50, 900 preferred stock;
the former to be issued to the patentees
as purchase price for patents, and the
latter to be sold to the public at par.
All meals are to be prepared of the best
materials by an accomplished chief and
thoroughly trained assistants, so that
patrons have a far better chance of OBJ
tanning excellent meals than if these had
been prepared in ordinary kitchens by
ordinary servants. Each meal is to be
put up at the central kitchen in tight
copper box, on silver-plated platters
and dishes, made to fit the box. while
steam, generated by a small heater
under the wagon, keeps the meals
warm and in good condition until deliv-
cred. Each family is to have willow
basket in which the cold things are to
be sent, and each wagon is to be pro.
vided with small refrigerator, where
in butter, salads, cold meats and ice
cream are to be kept. Patrons may
have such food as the company NAV
select-always good variety, and Of
the best quality-or they may choose
from printed bill of fare, to be issued
three days in advance, with change Of
breakfast and dinner daily, and to in
clude fruits and luxuries in season.
Although the prices have not been fully
decided upon they will be about as fol-
lows for the two plans: One person
per week, $12 or ga; two persons per
week $18 or 1922; three, 1928 or 1928;
four, 1928 or $34; five, S33 or $40; six
$3S or $40. This may appear to be 8
high price, especially out of the city
but it is asserted that the amount Of
food served will be sufficient for at least
one or two persons in each case, and
that the dishes will be the very bes1
kind, both as respects quality and
preparation. Accurate calculations
having been made, it is estimated, from
positive experience, that, on basis o.
supplying $50 families, averaging three
persons each, a handsome dividend car
be declared on the stock. have ne
doubt that the project is entirely fea
sible and might be made profitable

amount of capital named-$4O, 600
will be sufficient for the purpose.

The search for the bodies of the
Jeannette's crew is barely discontinued
and another crew Of arctic voyagers are
locked now in the fastness of Polar
winter quarters, with many fates pos
sible to them. Yet scientific ardor in
the pursuit of this particular branch is
not modified, and new expedition is
now being mooted This latter has
some novel features, and although very
much in embryo will admit of com
ment II is no less an enterprise than
descent and capture of this attractive
point of the earth's surface from the
clouds in balloon. and a company has
already been formed in London, Canada,
looking toward the fitting out of an
aerial expedition.
Commander Cheyne is the patron of
the enterprise, his faith in the POSSIBLE
ties Of ballooning and enthusiasm in the
particular project having inspired conf
dence with this practical result. He
proposes to start on the aerial part OF
the trip at point distant about 700
miles from the pole, and by easy stages,
laying to in mid-air for favorable
breezes, hopes to reach the much tried
for goal. a
There are @ronauts, notably the we'll
known Charles H., Grimley, of New
York, who feels assured than the plan
is impossible, and demonstrates mi
nutely and intelligently why it is so.
Mr.. Grimley holds first that the low
temperature to be encountered makes
the matter hopeless at once, for the gas
will condense so rapidly that it will be
well nigh impossible to secure sufficient
for eleyating power, the intense cold
will also act most unfavorably on the
oiled silk composing the.balloon, making
it brittle and breakable; the distance to
be accomplished, 700 miles, is enormous
and well nigh unprecedented, but if all
obstacles should be overcome and the
daring voyagers landed at the terminus
of the earth's axis, if no inhabitants
were found there, how could the vast
fields of ice, which make up the 700
miles of distance, be crossed homeward
boundp These briefly are the most in
superable Of the list of well put objec-
| tons that present themselves to the con-
sideration of this eminent and expert
| enced 9ronaut
|. 1t seems to us the public generally
/ will add more wholesale veto to the
business, who ask in WEAKNESS and
dread why need this ignis fatuus be
longer pursued under any auspicesp'
Enough of the brave and wise of earth
have bowed to this juggernaut of idol
airy, why should further sacrifice be
made? How terrible seems that grim
icy silence which holds the fate of
Franklin and all his fellow martyrs
down to the last, poor Chipp and his
companions in such impenetrable OBJ
security! The world shrinks from more
doubt and suspense, more anxiety and
dread, and finally more tragic certainty.
An open Polar sea, and northwest
passage, if found, would be difficult to
utilize-their value would not repay the
priceless humanity already lost in their
search. Better leave the Arctic sphinx
in the solitude and desolation which she
loves than add to the memorial cairns
and unmarked graves of more victims
to her unsolved riddles. Rochester

Few occupations are more pleasant
or instructive during the spring and
summer months than insect-collecting.
The eye is thereby trained to observe
and appreciate the beauty which nature
has SO lavishly bestowed on these Great
ures of a day. The first rule In collect
ing is to catch your insect. Certain
insects, such as the beetles, may be
easily caught by the hand, but for the
capture of winged insects, like the but
terfiies, a net is necessary. This NAV
be made in the following manner:
Bend piece Of medium-sized wire
(the length will depend on the size of
the metz in the form of circle, with its
two ends at right angles to the circum-
ference and in the same plane with it.
For handle select round piece OF
wood-a broom handle will answer, but
something not quite SO heavy is better
cut on opposite sides of it, at the end,
two grooves to receive the bent ends of
the wire, and then bind the wire to the
handle with stout string. The string
holds the wire to the handle and the
grooves prevent it from slipping out OF
its place. s....s - #4ff
The net is made of mosquito netting;
it is shaped like bag and sewed to the
wire frame. 3tJ -
The insects, when captured, NAV be
treated as follows: Beetles should be
put into q small, wide-necked bottle
filed with alcohol. Drop the beetle
into the alcohol, cork the bottle, and
he will give You no more trouble.
The simplest way to dispose of butter
flies is to carry a small bottle Of chloro-
form or of ether, and camel's-hair
brush. With it apply drop of the
liquid to the head of the insect, and he
will rest quietly. As the color of some
green insects, such as the grasshopper,
is changed by immersion in alcohol,
they should also be etherized.
One thing more must be attended to
and then the collector may hasten to the
fields in search of his game. A collect.
ing-box, in which to pin the butterflies
after they have been caught and killed
by the chloroform or ether, is necessary
If possible thin sheet of cork, or even
sections of ordinary bottle corks, should
be glued to the bottom of the box in
order to hold the pins firmly. For pins
the long, slender, so-called entomolo.
gists' pins, sold at natural history stores
are to be preferred, but ordinary pins Of
large size may be used. saa
A couple of strips of leather glued to
the outside of the collecting box will be
found useful for fastening it to the waist
! of the collector by means Of belt, book.
strap, or stout cord. Experience will
soon teach where the best collecting
| places are to be found.
On returning home from collecting
excursion, the insects should be pre-.
pared as soon as possible for the private
museum. The beetles require but slight
preparation. Remove them from the
bottle and pin them through the right
wing-coyer, but not in the middle of the
back. If, as often happens, the legs Of
the insect are cramped under the body,
draw them out and extend them as they
appear when the insect is walking, Sc
onring them by pins until the insect il
dry and stiff, when the pins may be re-
moved and the beetles placed in the col.

the Scotch are great

Although the Scotch are greater
smokers than the English, yet less to-
bacco is smoked in Scotland than
in England. This is due, accord
ing to the London Truth, to
the canny character of Scotchmen
Owing to the large quantity of water in
the ordinary tobacco sold, pipe goes
out before the tobacco in it is smoked
out. The Englishman throws away
this damp tobacco; the Scotchman care
fully extracts it from his pipe and then,
