AN APOCRYPHAL STORY.

A highly improbable, not to say sensational,
story recently came from Scranton, Pa, to
the effect that the six-year- old son.of wealthy
widow will not eat pie Indeed, although
provided with full set of excellent teeth, he
will eat no solids at all, including pie, cake,
meat, or bread with butter and honey on it.
This widow would probably like to have her
story believed, for what reason we at present
leave the public to infer. Let us for mo-
ment contemplate the phenomenon of an anti
piephagous boy Is there any precedent to
be cited from biology or dietetics that will go
to show the possibility of boy possessing an
unconquerable antipathy to pieY Will any
scientist have the hardihood to attempt the
vindcation of this most preposterous claim9
A great student of natural phenomena was
could be put in bucket filled with water
without causing the water to run over. The
same question had puzzled a great many men,
and various solutions had been rendered, more
or less plausible, but all very profound and
evincing deep research The man to whom
the problem was last submitted was scoffer,
and didn't believe the premises, and to the
dismay and disgust of other scientists took a
fish and slid it into bucket full of water
which latter ran over until the volume was at
last adjusted to the cubical contents of the
vessel, when no more escaped. It is just so
with this physical anomaly. Before going
into an elaborate discussion of the possibility
of boy living without pie, let it first be es-
tablshed that such thing has occurred.
There are numberless reasons we might
cite in proof of our attitude on this question
Instances are of record in which even full
grown men have tried to abstain from pie but
in none Of them has success attended the eff
fort. DIR. Tanner maintains that he did not
allow fragment Of pie to pass his lips for
forty days. Without questioning his claim
let us call attention to the fact that the very
first thing he called for when the time was up
was piece Of pie and watermelon. Total
abstinence from pie is prettier in theory than
in practice, and we are moved to put ourselves
on record as of belief that all legislation look
ing to the abolition of the pie habit must
prove abortive. If adult man can, by a SUI
preme effort maintain life without the aid of
pie for no longer than forty days, it is alto
gether reasonable to conclude that the average
small boy could not survive more than TWEEN
ty-four hours without it. The Chinese have
authenticated records extending over 5000
years. Can any man recall from their pages
single instance of boy who lived without
pie? 1t is related Of Napoleon that he was
great pie-eater that unless his favorite brand
was on the suffers counter, operations were
suspended and truce declared until the
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1885-01-04

omission was made good. It was because
Grouchy failed to bring forward his pie that
Waterloo was lost; for while the Little Corpo-
raj was skirmishing among the pastry shops
of Quatre Bras, Wellington stole march
on him at Hougoumont 1t might
also be stated that we have no
evidence that Caesar was averse to pie, or that
Hannibal did not stimulate himself with pie
just before going into action. This is mega
tive proof we admit, but it ought to be con-
elusive. Suppose you were in an orchard in
which thousands of apples had fallen to the
ground, and some wealthy widow should tell
you that she saw one apple fall upward
would it be wisdom to attempt to explain the
exception, or, rather, would it not be alto
gether more business-like to demonstrate that
the widow had evidently forgotten that the
day of campaign stories had passed.
We cannot inveigh too strongly against
this artful widow. With calculating shrewd-
ness she knew that if she claimed to have an
oil well on her farm and an inexhaustible
coal-mine in her cellar she would attract prob
ably score of suitors. How many more, then,
would she win could she once establish the
fact that she had borne a boy who would not
eat pie. The contemplation of the outcome
OF such an announcement is appalling, and it
is altogether probable that the railways can be
prevailed upon to offer half-fare rates to clubs
between Western points and Scranton. That
this will have the effect of drawing many
away from the New Orleans exposition we be-
lieve; but at the imminent risk of being
laughed to scorn, we warn all Journal readers
not to be caught in this specous trap, con-
fdent that time will vindicate the claim that
a non-pie eating boy is a physical impossi-
bility.

that enthusiasm and feeling for art, if the
term may be so used, which once permeated
such descriptions, is now entirely lacking
The picture of the grand toilet is there but
it signify to be told, in cold, set terms, that
Miss Justice So-and-so wore a black satin with
crimson trimmings, or that the wife of a
prominent diplomatic was arrayed in white
ottoman silk with draperies of pearlem-
broidered Grape, when there is no accompany
ing mention of the lovely and charming
faces of the ladies, no allusion
to their queenly forms and striking ap-
pearance, no reference whatever to their
fascinating manners9 1t is not pertinent to
the question to explain that the ladies spoken
of are not favored in the directions specified;
that, on the contrary, they and the majority
OF the others composing the party are plain,
unattractive and by no means accomplished
or mentally gifted. This is not what the
public expects to hear. 1t prefers to cherish
the delusion that the wives and daughters of
the wealthy or distinguished citizens who
move in the lofty circles which are alone hon
ored by the reporters pen are not only clothed
in purple and fine linen, but are also beauti-
full and attractive beyond the common run.
A painful suspicion must arise now and then
in the minds of those who have read
these accounts for several years in
succession, that the gay apparel is not new,
but has appeared before his eyes-metaphor-
lcally, of course, through the papers in
former years. He or she never looks back
to last years files to compare notes, and so
detect the fraud, if such there be- choosing
rather to believe that the elegant ladies who
pose before the public in their best clothes
would not be guilty of donning their second
best, or their old ones made over If the de-
scription of a woman's gown is thought
worthy of being telegraphed over the coun-
try on account of the wearers prominence,
the reaiing public has right to demand that
Wis 6eHA AAOio 70 oplCh dHO span u0W. LII HIS,
also, right to believe that all promi-
nent women are lovely beyond compare. At
any rate, it has been educated by the
journalists of the past to believe that such is
the case and feels that a fraud is being per-
petrated when too much is left to the magma
ton, as is becoming the custom. Whether
the difficulty lies with the veteran society re-
porters and correspondents whose stock of
adjectives was long since used up or whether
the members of the society described are act
ually so lacking in loneliness that no one
with remnant Of conscience can cover them
with other charms than are found in satin and
silk, it is impossible to say. 1t may, however,
be stated positively that if the wives of states
men are to be known only by the clothes they
wear, like so many dummies, the catalogue of
the wardrobe may as we'll be omitted from
future accounts. 1t is not enough

The newspaper readers who have been ac-
customed to scan the accounts of fashionable
entertainments at Washington and elsewhere,
notably the New Years reception at the White
House. which is something of national af-
fair, must have noticed within the last year or
two, great change in the style of these mar
ratives. Particularly is this the case in regard
to the costumes worn by the ladies in attend
ance at these festivities. The descriptions of
these are not omitted, it is true; they appear
in detail, but in a perfunctory way, as if the
society reporter, the purveyor of that intel
lectual food for which the public is supposed
to pine, had no heart in the task No Mrs.
