A Novel Test In Tasting.


A novel bet was won and lost In a Vine
street resort the other evening. A party
Of gentlemen were INDUCING In o social
glass, and finally the conversation turned
upon the quality Of liquors aaa *lss ability
of certain persons to judge them by the
sense of smell and taste. One man In the
party claimed that the best judges could
be fooled by the ~compounders, and, after
the argument became quite warm, made
the astounding assertion that a large per-
centage of bar patrons did not know what
they were drinking.
The debate grew hotter and hotter, and
finally the man who had advanced such
outrageous ideas offered to bet q basket
of wine that he could confound any one of
the party SO that he could not tell water
from whisky. John Hummel, the circus
man, who has had a varied experience in
the drinking line, accepted the wager, and
the preliminaries began. John was first
heavily blindfolded, and hen a number. of
glasses, containing water, milk, whisky,
sherry, %clarat, Rhine wine and gin were
set out on the bar. They were handed to
the blindfolded man one at a time, and he
was told to name the liquor after tasting
1t. He got through the list bravely until
he came to the GIN. which he called port
wine. Then the man started him back,
but 1t was soon very evident that Hum
mel's palate had lost its power. He called
milk water and finally was forced to I'd
init that all the liquors tasted alike, and
that he had lost his bet. 1t was some
time before he was able to enjoy the wine
he had lost.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

fashionable folk scarcely dine at home
once o month unless they play host under
their own roof. How they manage their

rate dinners are enough to disturb the In.

cooking Of the Careme kind claims to In
SUR eupepsy; but. while this may be
true in theory, 1. is not In practice. Scores
of men die here annually from excessive
dining OUT, and / am acquainted with
dozens who have lost their health from
the same canse. Women seldom suffer,
because they are not educated, and cannot
be educated into epicures, IF they are
tortured by govt it is usually an Inherit
ance most men earn their govt by pro.
tracted stomachic abuse. Excessive eat.

as many constitutions as does excessive

them with nothing but his rifle and
blankets, depending upon the country
for food. Re was gone several days.
One day Tobin appeared at the sinele
store in Taos and took the heads OF two
men ont Of q gunny.saok he carried
Yer his shoulder, were the heads
of the Espenosas brothers, and Tobin
secured the reward. His story was that
he overlook the brothers in q wooded
country and shot one OF then from am
bush. A desperate fight ensued with
the remaining brother, which resulted
in the death OF the bandit.
Tobin then cus off their heads with hia
hunting knife. When hit Carson died
