LUCK IN A HUMP.


a Singular Superstition Prevailing Anons
Professional Gamblers.
81 will let You rub my hump with
your gold if you give me afranc." said
d hump-backed girl to me one night in
the gambling saloon at Monte Carlo.
l looked at her somewhat nstonished ut
the remark, but she seemed so much in
earnest and so DESTROYS of tho small
piece of money that gave it to her
and rubbed her hump for luck, put the
money on IA and-lost 1t was the
strangest piece of tipping that l ever
encountered in all my European trav-
els. yet there are three or four hump
backs who are habitues of the gambling
saloon ut Monte Carlo, and who make
a living by letting the superstitious rub
their lucky hump with money.
l remember an experience once in
America of the same kind, but it was
not for a tip that the hump was rubbed.
A friend once told me to rub the hump
of a hunchback with money. not letting
him see you do it, and twas good luck.
1t was race week and thought would
try it; so, slipping up behind little
hunchback who was going through the
corridor of prominent hotel in Wash
ington, | pretended to be taking off my
coat, and. having money in my hand.
accidentally, as it were, let that hand
Lit the hunchback, and thus rub the
money on the lucky hump. But, alas!
the man turned around and had to
apologize for thus seemingly assaulting
him.
OF course knew then that no luck
would come from the contact of the
money with the hump, and so did not
put any on the races and perhaps saved
by it. But at Monte Carlo it seems to
be reversed, for you, with tho knowl-
edge of the unfortunate, rub your
money up against them, and very often,
at least they tell me so, the person wins,

After giving Mr.. x time to con-
struct the figure, the unknown prisoner
began another series of knocks. so
grouped and spaced as to indicate the
lines and columns in which the re-
CURED letters were to be found. Five
knocks followed by three knocks meant
that the equivalent letter would be
found at the intersection of the fifth
line and third column: two knocks fol-
lowed by one knock indicated letter
f. at the intersection of line two and
column one; and five knocks followed
by four knocks meant letter X, at the

THE KNOCK ALPHABET.
A Means of Communication Resorted to
by Russian Prisoners.

The talented Russian novelist x,
who has been twice eXiled to Siberia
and half dozen times imprisoned,
told me last summer that when he was
arrested for the first time he had never
even heard of the "knock alphabet;"
and that when, during the second day
OF his imprisonment, he noticed faint
tapping on the other side of the wall,
he regarded it merely as an indication
that the adjoining cell was occupied,
and gave it no particular attention.
AS the knocking continued, however
and as the faint taps seemed to be
definitely segregated into groups by
brief intervals of silence, he became
convinced that his unknown neighbor
was endeavoring to communicate with
him. Upon what principal or plan the
knocks were grouped he did not know,
but he conjectured that the number of
taps between two rests might cores
| pond with the serial number of letter
in the alpha bet-one knock standing
for "a, two for b, three for C., and so
on up to twenty-siX for IL Upon put
ting this conjecture to the test he was
delighted to find that the knocks re-
solved themselves into the letters Do
y-o-u-u-n-d-e-r-s-t-a-n-d?' He replied
with forty-niue knocks, so grouped and
| spaced as to make Yes; but long be-
fore he had finished this short word he
became mournfully conscious that, ut
the rate of forty-nine knocks for every
three letters, he and his unknown cor
respondent would not be able to eX-
change more than half dozen ideas a
week. The invisible prisoner on the
other side of the wall did not seem,
however, to be ut all discouraged, and
began at once another long series of
knocks, which extended to two hun
bred and ninety-six, and which, when
translated, made the words Teach you
better way-listenm Mr.. X then
heard one loud tap near the corner OF
the cell, followed y the sound OF
scratching, which proceeded from that
point towards the door at about the
height of mans head, as if the I'M
known were drawing a long horizontal
line with some hard substance on the
other side of the wall. After a brief
interval of silence there came two STAG
cato taps and the noise made by the
scratching of second line parallel with
the first one, but a little lower down.
When seven of these invisible lines had
been drawn under one another about a
foot apart, with a group of knocks at
the beginning of each one to denote its
number, the unseen artist went back to
one knock. and proceeded to draw six
perpendicular lines crossing the first
series at right angles, SO as to make a
huge audible checker-board. AS soon
as Mr.. X heard this invisible dia-
gram, the purpose for which it was in
tended flashed upon his mind, and be-
fore the unknown instructor had fin
ished knocking out the words, Put
alphabet in squares" the quick-witted
pupil had scratched upon the floor OF
his cell a reduced copy of the audible
tracing, and was numbering its lines
and columns. His diagram when fin.
ished looked something like this:

HOW TO COOK OATMEAL.
How 1t is Served in This Country and in
"Auld ScOtIand."

How 1t is Served in This Country and in
"Auld Scotland"
In making oatmeal porridge, the
meal is stirred into boiling water with
q porridge stick, while the water is kept
all the time at brisk boil. Care
should be taken to prevent the meal
from forming knots, as it will do if
dropped into the water in too large
quantities. The best way is to take
handful of the meal and let it drop into
the receptacle by the rubbing of the
thumb against the fingers. At first the
water will show ebulliton or boiling
up soon after the meal begins to go
into it, and this will be kept up until
about the time when enough of the
meal has been added. Fine meal is
more likely to knot than the coarse
meal, 1t takes experience to tell when
just the amount of meal needed has
been used, the thickness of the porridge
being the test. No measurement of
water and meal will do. The oatmeal
may be stirred in cold water before
cooking, but this makes more labor and
the cooking is not SO well done as in
the other way. But if the cold water
mixing is resorted to. the meal should
be ground to the finest flour.
If any other meal is mixed with oat-
yaaa2I, as is sometimes done, rice meal is
regarded as the best, though barley,
bean. pea and wheat meals may be used
Only small quantity of the rice meal
should be used. but straight oatmeal
would be preferred by the true lover of
this cereal.
Acdity is developed when oatmeal is
soaked in water for few days, and this
meal makes the 'hummery' of the oat-
meal districts Of England, Scotland and
Ireland.
Milk is used instead of water in max
ing milk porridgo; less meal is required.
but more water. Ale is also used in
place of water. Porridge is eaten mixed
with milk. Cane syrup and butter are
also used.
In making "water brose," boiling
water is poured on q handful OF oatmeal
in bowl, until the mess is of the
thickness of porridge, and then some
new milk is poured in. This is to be
eaten Immediately. Brose meal should
be kiln dried and coarse. The art of
making this dish lies in making the
boiling water fully surround each par
ticle of meal at the first pouring. Milk
brosc is made by using boiling milk;
less meal is used than in water brose
and about twice as much milk as water
In pouring the boiling liquid upon
either water or milk brose. the meal is
stirred TO give it immediate cooking.
When the liquid in which beef or mutton
is boiled is used. beef or mutton brose is
made, and even turnip and cabbage
water is used.
White pudding is made of oatmeal
with which minced suet and onions
have been mixed, salt and pepper be-
ing used to taste. This may be done in
a saucepan. but the mixture is more
commonly stuffed into small intestines,
cut into lengths of foot or so, tied at
both ends and boiled in q pot 1t will
keep for a year. Finally the water in
which it is boiled is used in making
pudding brose, that nothing may be
lost. These are the ways in which oat-
meal is cooked in "auld Scotland. -
