Henry Clay's Fortune.

Ben: Perley Poore says in his remi-
niscences: '.Henry Clay was pronounc-
ed insolvent by his Kentucky opponents
in 1912. and they paraded some mort
cages on his property as evidences of
his inability to pay his debts. In a let
ter to a friend during this calumny, Mr..
Clay said: i am not free, absolutely,
from debt. / am not rich. l never
coveted riches. But my estate would,
even now. be estimated at not much
less than 800, 600 Whatever it may
be, 1t is gratifying to know that it is
the product of my own honest labor, no
part of it being hereditary except one
slave who would oblige me very much
If he would accept his freedom. 1t is
sufficient, after paying all my debts, to
leave my family above want if l should
be separated from them. 1t is n matter
also of consolation TO me to know that
this wanton exposure of my private af-
fairs can do me no pecuniary prejudice.
My few creditors will not allow their
confidence in me to be shaken by it. 1t
has. indeed, led to one incident, which
was at the same time a source of pleas
ure and of pain. 4 friend lately called
on me, Mt the instance of other friends,
and informed me that they were ap-
prehensivc that my private affairs were
embarrassed, and that | allowed these
embarrassments to prey upon my mind.
He came therefore with their authority
to tell mo that they would contribute
any sum that | might want to relieve
me. The emotions which such Il prop
osition excited can be conceived by
honorable men. l felt most happy to
be able to undeceive them and to de-
cline their benevolent proposition

What a Kentucky Burgoo Is.

"If you should go out to Kentucky
about this time" said the Old Judge.
''you would probably be invited TO q
burgoo. You don't recognize him by
that name, do you? NoP Well. u
burgoo (accent on the last syllable) is
a grand, good thing. 1t is an all-day
picnic in the woods. with a feast
which throws the clam chowder and
the barbecue into the deep shade of
obscurity. In fact the burgoo usually
includes q barbecue as sort of Incl
dent. You go out to a corner of the
woods, where thick underbrush has
been carefully cut away, and where
not enough for gloom. and there you
sit and play poker and smoke the fin
est tobacco in the world and drink oily
10-year-old sour mash and sniff the de-
lightful aroma of the burgoo until
along in the afternoon, when the mig
gers pronounce the hurgoo ready and
1adle it out to you in big bowlfuls.
The burgoo is a delicious broth, which
is perpetual reminder of the abOrig-
ines, who handed it over to our fore
fathers when they began coming across
the mountains from Virginia. You

BoutllOn.

Titus Munson Coan writes to Harper's
Weekly that in his opinion Americans
do not make enough use of liquids. and
especially of soups. in their diet We
live in a dry atmosphere, we have a
whitening summer climate. and, except
for the iced water that we consume
during the hot weather, we who es-
pecially need liquid foods use less of
them than any other people in Christen-
dom. Soups are used freely in many
parts of Europe. The Germans are
drinkers of beer, the English of beer
and tea, the French of wine and choco-
late; but the American has no national
beverage except during the dog-days.
and then he does not pour down
enough iced water to last the year
round. Whisky, the National stimu-
liant, cannot be called true beverage;
certainly it cannot be imbibed ut the
rate OF eighty ounces per day. What.
then, is lacking in the diet of COM
munity which stands in special need
of more generous liquid dietP One
thing is needed especially, and that
thing is soup. Except in the cities.
! Americans eat very little soup. a
good bouillon, or pot au feu, the most
economical and appetiZing of foods, is
what we should use far more than we
do. lit is the outcome" says DIR.
Radcliffe. ''of ages of experience in
people who have had special genius
for cookery. The animal and vcgeta-
Bile ingredients are so blended that the
flavor of no one article is predominant.
The bouillon contains all. or almost
all, of the soluble portions of those in
gradients which are necessary for It's
sue-forming or plastic purposes and for
force production. A good pot au fen
with bread is an excellent and sufficient
meal, provided always that the pot au
fen is made from good piece OF meat.
A good bouillon may indeed be made
from tough piece. but what remains
behind will be innutritious and indi-
gestible, its virtues having gone into
tho soup. l have remarked in French
families that the housekeepcrs provid-
ed good meat for the pot au fcu, and,
though they boil it two or three hours,
they lake care not to extract its vir-
tues entirely by too much boiling. so
that the bouilli, or soup-meat. is good
and palatable when served with Il
sauce.

The Chinaman's -Four Most Precious
Things"

In China the -four most precious
things" are the paper-plant, ink and
its saucer, and the brush.
The hornet, whose sharp sting is the
terror Of children, is the recognized pion-
eer OF paper-makers. Its cellular nest,
on trees and rocks, is built of material
which resembles the most delicate

Eighteen hundred years ago the
Chinese, acting upon the wasp's sug-
gestion, made paper from iibrous mat
ter reduced TO pulp. Now. each prov
incc makes its own peculiar variety
from the inner most bark of different
trees. The Young bamboo, which
grows six or eight inches in single
night, is mhitoned, reduced TO pulp in
q mortar, and sized with alum. From
this pulp sheets OF paper are made in q
mold by hand. The celebrated Chinese
rice paper, that so resembles wooden
and silk fabrics. and ON which are
paiu;cd quaint birds and flowers. is
manufactured from compressed pith,
which is first cut spirally, by Il keen
knife. into thin slices, six inches wide
and twice IS long. Immense quanti-
ties OF paper are used by the Chinese
for Il great variety of purposes. Funcr-
al papers, or paper limitations of earth
ly things which they desire TO bcstow
on departed friends. are burned over
their graves. They use paper window
frames, paper s!idim1-,!oors, and paper

Sailing Among Glaciers.

We had already sailed past several
glaciers larger than the Mer-de- Glace,
of Mont Blanc, but they were so far
away that we got no adequate idea of
their extent. Nor did any Of them
push their way into the sen. This
riacier, to which our boat was not
pointed, came down into deep water,
and stretched back into the mountains
until its course was lost in fields Of
snow. As the steamer checked her
speed to keep at safe distance from
the monster, we found that we had
sailed up point-blank against Il vertical
wall of blue ice q mile and half long,
and 800 feet high above the water! AS
if to illustrate the grand scale and
magnitude of everything, just as our
boat rounded to, a chip OF ice safely
estimated to weigh l, 800 tons. broke
off from the face of the glacier and fell
a distance of 100 feet into the sea. OF
course there followed IL mighty uproar.
and then a wave that rocked our
steamer rs do only the big sweils from
the Pacific. As the tide was ehbin@.
the mass that had just fallen into the
water lloatcd out past the boat, form
ing Il field of broken ice several acres
in extent
The upper surfacc of the glacier was
full of deep assures. and ut the water
level there were mysterious caves which
no one dared explore. Pieces of ice.
large and small, were constantly drop
ping into the sea; and. rs the ice-wall
acted as Il sounding board. there were
constant vnllevs of sound rs sharp as
that of mushctry or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
ct flr,fr to fOn b,af ~
butt-end of II glacier. where icebergs
are made. is II very noisy place.
Passengers were landed on shore;
and. after ii climb along the side
moraine to hight of some 500 feet, n
few OF us found ourselves at II point
where we could overload, the stream
of ice and get an idea of its deep
assures and impaSsablc condition.
High as we were there were yet peaks
of ice between us and The water that
were still above us, and we could only
see fraction of II mile inland. Every
thing was on Il scale ihnt could only be
realized by the test of climbing. Along
side the glacier. in mid-channcl, there
were seven!v-iive fathoms OF water;
and, as the steamer approached shore
IT, land us. ths lcadsman reported no
bottom at twelve fathoms.
Only last ear did the boat make its
first trip to this glacier. Farther up
the bay four or five other glaciers come
down from the Fairwcather group of
mountains, but very little is known
about them. We only caught au oc-
casional glimpse of the glaciers, and
saw that but small part of the float
ing ice in the bay came from the inn
mense reservoir of ice that we had
visited.
