Utilizing wild Mo..es for Food.

1t is said that a prosperous and grow
ing industry has been developed in util-
ing the wild moses of Sweden and
Russia as an article of food. The sup.
ply is practically inexhaustible, as il
covers the vast region extending from
the Baltic to Behring's straits. The moss
is said to yield on an average as much
alcohol as good grain and three times az
much as potatoes. Attention was called
I the value of this moss by the extreme

Oriental LOuferS.

The Oriental has the art of loafng
down to q fine point. If 1 welcasked to
describe an Arab or q Turk Of Damascus
(for rs we get nearer the Bosphorus,
moving north, the Turkish element be-
comes more and more manifest over the
Arabian), l should ask you to picture to
yourself a cotton-striped robe reaching to
his heels, and a red fel or a turban, squat
by the brink of running water. There,
hour after hour, men sit on their launches
and let the hours slide by; all days are
the same. The women are frequently
seen encamped by the waters edge, hid
den behind their wells, and you do not ut
all know whether they are conducting a
Irritation with some distant patriarch or
saying their prayers.

Value of a White Plate.

There still exists people who cannot
cultivate a taste for color. When a GER
tain San Francisco lady, who has made q
wide eastern reputation as a writer,
visited Japan some years ago, she was en-
tertained by one of the leading Americans
of Toxic. Everything in The house was
artistic, and the rarest curios, the most
elaborate porcelain ware, the finest Japan
csc art productions, covered the tables
and filled the rooms. The San Francisco
visitor was much interested in oil this,
and was particularly admiring the dinner
service, which was of Il very unique pat
tern. After dinner the host took her aside:
"Don't tell my wife, but I'd givefour dol
lars to eat off q white plate.

Sam relates this little incident at tho

Sam relates this little incident at tho
capital: "Winter before last some fell
low introduced a bill in the Senate to in
crease the water supply of the District of
Columbia, and found a vigorous second
in Senator Jones, of Florida. A few
weeks later a fire occurred in Wizards
Hotel, and Senator Jones was among the
first to reach the scene. Just as he got
abreast of one of the engines the supply
pipe burst, and the Senator received a
full head of water square in the face.
After shaking himself, and wringing the
water out of his broadcloth coat, he
shouted with great vehemence: "The
bill to"increase the water supply of the
District of Columbia has lost its most ar
dent friend, by George I believe the
measure never went through"
Now that Sam is devoting himself to a
line of work quite the reverse of any
thing in his former life, we may not hear
so much about his wit and humor, but it
is a safe conjecture that his pulpit stories
will make him just as popular as the
others used to, though they will be far
different in substance Chicago Herald.

A Jealous Waiter.

The post of waiter at q dinner party,
when o sudden resignation had left the
place vacant within an hour of the as
sembling of the guests, was delighted.
The host was also delighted to find that
an old dress coat and vest would fit the
coachman, and ten minutes was spent in
acquainting the servant with the usages
of polite society at a dinner. Among
other things, the host told the coachman
that he was OF no account to ask any of
the guests to be helped u second time to
soup. The guests took their places at
the table, and the soup was quite credit
ably served. The coachman observed
that one gentleman pushed his plate of
soup away from him. The servant leaned
over and drew the plate back again in
front of the gentleman, who in turn
pushed it from him again. This dis
pleased the coachman. He thought he
saw q breach of decorum in the action.
GATE your soup, sorr!" said he, in
trumpet tones, ''ycz'll get no more"

Perpetually ssOn the BoiI.",

Coffee is brought every morning to you
when at a Mexican hotel, while you re-
main in it. 1t is only to the departing
guest that it is denied. At eight o'clock,
the walters begin to bestir themselves,
bringing trays to every room, as soon as
they are rung for, with cups and saucers,
and all the requisites for coffee. You
can have boiled eggs if you like. Then,
enter Francisco with huge tin pots; sim
%ultaneous streams of coffee and boiled
milk fill up the cup with their equal ex-
c%ellence. Sometimes Francisco comes
from a restaurant a couple of squares
away, but he runs, and the coffee IS not
cold.
Very well, so much for boiled milk in
Mexico. My party came home by rail,
over the Mexican Central to Ell Paso.
and then by Atchison md Topeka, and
so on, back to our little New England.
On the terrors of railway restaurants be-
tween the City of Mexico ana our boun.
dairy I will not here dwell, the strange
food, the bad service, the clumsy boxes
which served as dining rooms. For this
paper I have only to say about these GASES
in the Mexican desert, that there was al
ways excellent coffee, and milk pcrpet-
ually con the boil" and to be had at q

A Gypsy Superstition.

Gypsies are particularly superstitious
regarding portraits, and it is u rarity to
find the photograph of a true Bohemian
decorating any art gallery or store win
dow. They consider it most unlucky to
be photographed, and will only submit
to have their photographs taken in con-
sideration of receiving, without asking
for it, an old shoestring with which they
can bind the spirit of ill luck certain to
pursue the person whose likeness has been
REPRODUCED.

OPPORTUNITIES In Mexico.

For men with small capitals for invest
ment in lands Mexico is not the country,
writes a correspondent of the Boston
Herald. For some time to come syndi-
Gates and large capitalists will continue
to purchase big tracts, and agriculture
will be carried on in that way. Not un-
til some time will small tracts be availa-
BILE. There is a field here always for men
with useful spccialties. First-class me-
chanics who can afford u trip here to
look over the ground might we'll come,
and people with odd knacks which are
worth money. For example IL young
Portuguese came here recently on a VEN
ture. His only art was a rare ability to
paint on silk. This seemed a mighty
poor capital to invest here, but he got IN
introduction into wealthy families, and
has now n good income from teaching
the senoritas his novel and beautiful art.
The Mexicans love decoration and the
decorative art. Some young people are
doing we'll here as tutors Of English in
rich families, for English is IL fashionable
rage, and the senoritas like to be able to
say a few charming things in the Ian
guagc of Shakcspee-arr. 1t is quite the
elegant thing to be able to say ''good by"
and Chow do you do2" in English, and
the zeal with which some young Mexican
ladies pursue English is worthy of the
Boston girls craze on German.
Cafe keeping here is profitable; and,
as we have an American barber shop and
American bar-rooms, it seems quite feast
BILE to make money out of M American
cafe, where one could get buckwheat
cakes, pumpkin pie good pumpkins
grow hcrc), tish-balls and other Yankee
dishes. An elderly Englishman here has
made money out of a regular Johnny Bull
eating house, where one can get roast
beef and plum pudding and ale ad lib.
The French have their cafe, with their
own cooking, but the American tourist
finds little that is familiar to him here.
A genuine American restaurant, run by q
live and energetic man, would pay we'll.
The growing taste for American light
carriages suggests the idea that an Amer
lean livery stable would be a profitable
venture. Rent need not be high and Ia
Dor would be very cheap, and I think
that the youth of Mexico would patron
ize literally a good stable where fine
teams for display on the Paseo could be
had. There arc not many good carriage
roads here, but there is an opportunity to
rent out phaetons, buggies, etc. It
would be q decided novelty here. And
why not q livery stable as we'll as the
present roller skating rink, where the
j~ucncsse dorce of Mexico go to bark their
shins and crack their crowns. The de.
spised roller skating rink is succeeding
here, and down in Vera Cruz they regard
their rink as a most delightfully."- fashion,
able place of entertainment.
Another American novelty which is
paying handsomely here is the circus, per-
mancntly established near where the in
QUESTION used to bother people with lit
tie iron arrangements for extracting in
formation.
