Queer Candy.

Ileutenat Frederick SchwatBa. in ST.
Methodist
1t would seem very strange, and
perhaps not very pleasant, to my
young readers to hear tallow-candle
or the shin-bone of reindeer called
candy. And yet these things may
really be considered as Esquimau
candy. because they would delight the
children Of the cold in precisely the
way that box of bonbons would de-
light you. There is a certain kind of
waterfowl in Arctic countries known
as the dovekie. 1t is about the
size of duck, is quite black, has pro-
minent white stripe on its wings, and
its webbed feet are Of brilliant red.
When sitting in rows on the edge of
creenish rock these little red feet are
very conspicuous. Sometimes. when
the men have killed number of dove
kies, the Esquimau women cut off the
bright red feet, draw out the bones,
and, blowing into the skins, distend them
asmuch possible so as to form pouches.
When these pouches are thoroughly
dried they are filled with reindeer tai
low, and the bright red packages, which
/ assure youlook much nicer than they
taste, are little Boreas's candy. In
very cold weather the Esquimau chill
dren eat great quantities of fat and
blubber and this fatty food, which
seems to us so uninviting, helps to
keep them warm and well. The only
other kind of candy that the Esquimau
children have is the marrow from the
long leg or shin-bone Of the slaughter
ed reindeer. OF this, also,, they are
very fond. Whenever a reindeer is
killed and the meat has been stripped
from the bones of the legs these bones
are placed on the floor of the igloo and
cracked with a Ratchet until the marrow
is exposed. The bones are then forced
apart with the hands and the marrow
is dug out of the ends with long,
sharp. and narrow spoon made from a
walrus's tusk. | have eaten this rein
deer marrow frozen and cooked, and
and after one becomes accustomed to
eating frozen meat raw it is really an
acceptable tidbit; while cooked and
nicely served it would be a delicacy
anywhere.

His style OF Orste.v-A Few PsthY say
fnss.
Great excitement has characterized
the ministrations Of Sam Jones in va
rious parts Of the country. His rev.
yalstic efforts have been followed by
numerous conversions and large Access
sions of membership 10 some OF the
Protestant denominations. Starting
his evangelistic work in Alabama
in the year 1881 he has Wis
tied at different times, Florids, Mis-
sissippi, Kentucky, Texas, Tcnnes-
see. South Carolina, and New York.
Vast crowds everywhere attend the SER
vices conducted by him. and he could
make great gain by his wonderful popu-
larity il he would. But he consistently
refuses to enrich himself as the result
of his work, and seems content to be
