Roofs Of Engll.h IIomseS

Shingled roofs are unknown in Eng.

two men, intelligent English working
men, about the construction Of buildings
in their country, and they both asked
me (when 1 told them how they made
roofs in America) what shingles were;
they had never seen or heard Of them,
and laughed, when / described them, at
the Yankee notion Of making wooden
roof slate" They thought their matched
roofs must be much better, every way.

Life Of German Peasants.

Let us suppose now, for a moment. we
are living in a German village. AT 9
O'Clock you will see the farmer take his
first meal, consisting Of a weak coffee,
which is very often composed of coffee
and roasted wheat, and in which milk is
largely used. He will take to this coffee
some slices Of brown bread corn bread
with jam, or with butter, lard, etc. At
3 O'Clock another meal will be served,
for as people had already done some hard
work by that time they want another
meal. This second breakfast may con-
sist of slices of brown rye bread with
butter and ham, Of butter and cheese, or
butter with eggs, or bread with bacon or
sausage only, 20 which as a rule by the
male members of the family-very sell
dom by females-either a small glass Of
''schnaps'' corn brandy OF some very
weak beer is partaken Of.
An average peasant family, number
ing five heads, would about consume per
year, two fat pigs. four or five geese,
perhaps n few ducks, about half a dozen
old hens and a dozen young ones, two
dozen young pigeons. Pork is in stock
all the year round, as well in form of the
well known sausage as in the shape
of bacon, ham, etc. II will he smoked
in order 10 keep. As to the vegetables
used, j must say people know better to
appreciate their value than in England
or America. II is really astonishing to oh
serve the ignorance which prevails here,
especially among the poorer classes in
England, upon such matters. There are
thousands Of people in England. who
never saw in their lives a Haricot bean,
pea or turtle-liying on nothing bat NUT
ton chops, beefsteak, pie and cheese.
This is entirely different in Germany.
Cereals and pulses are largely used, and
there is a healthy variety in the bill Of
fare. Ii will not happen very often that
the same dish is served for dinner twice
a week. remember having read once
In a medical book forget whether il
was by Professor Cork or Redam-that the
rural people in Thurvingia and Saxonia

OF their foods. and that the mixture OBJ

any physician. -Pupke in Herald Of

Among the many scientific papers read
ct the recent meeting Of the British asso-
citation in Bath, none possesses a higher
degree of interest than the brief mono
graph of Mr.. Michael G. Mulhall ON the
sGrowth OF American Industries and

because it is the work of a distinguished
English statistician, and so must be re-
gzrded as free from any blemish of pa

To look upon the picture which Mr..
Mulhall gives of the astonishing life,

stirs the blood In every one of the
three principal sources OF power--man,

An inspection of this table shows that
in round numbers the working power Of
the United States is three times as great

An Enjoyable Evening.

The audience which greeted New
ton Beers in his character of Joe Arm
royd, the Swart King in "Lost in
London" at The Garland, was we'll
repaid for coming out last night.
There Is little of the play itself but
sufficient to bring out the strong
powers of Mr.. Beers as a fine actor.
The specialties introduced in the
fourth act were most pleasing to the
audience and round after round of
appreciatiye applause greeted each
new feature. The fine contralto
voice of Miss Kate Romano as she
sang number of old familiar SONGS
had happy effect upon the audience
which was in no way lessened when
the North Britain Pan Pipe singers,
Messrs. Hardin, Rareshide. Guil.

Ell them to a number of excellent se-
lectlons. All were in splendid voice
and their renditions were enthusiasts
