They were afraid 10 stay there all

on account Of the scandal il would

Il tried the lock and then asked
about the man who had the keys. The
young man said the keys were carried
by the proprietor. who was out Of town,

Finally the young man came down

EATING BY THE ALPH aBET.
A Novel Way to AVOID kOnOtonOus
Diet.

"Have you got anything here
beginning with 'k' that's gooI to
eat?" inquired a new conner at a
weli-known delicacy market.
"How will picked kidneys an.
swer?" replied the clerk after a
noment's thought. "F'irst rate.
Give me- a dozen cans. The kit
tens life is saved" exclaimed the
strange patron with enthusiasm.
81 told my wife," he continued,
"that if failed to send home a
kangaroo, dead or alive, before 2
o'clock, | should expect to find
the kitten served up for supper in
the latest Chinese style. But
your happy thought saves her.
You see we all got tired of eating
the same things day after day,
and SO last month we agreed that
we would eat up Tor rather DOWN
the alphabet, taking one letter a
day, with bread, potatoes, tea and
coffee thrown in as staples. So
December 1st we inaugurated the
dietary system with bill of fare
consisting Of apples in many
forms, apricots picked, asparagus,
almonds aud the staples. The
next days menu was beef, beets,
beans, biscuits, buttermilk, bacon
and bonbons. The following day
we feasted on chicken, Goldfish
balls, CLANS, celery, cucumbers
$50 cents each), crabs, cheese,
cake, crackers, crullers, carrots,
canned currents, canned cherries,
cltrons, cider, catsup, and candy.
And SO it has gone on. The fifth
day would have been a fast day
had it not been for eggs, but we
made an Easter of it. Yesterday
we dined, breakfasted and supped
chiefly on jelIies. To-day your
kidney suggestion saves US from
starvation, while tomorrow we
will grow fat on liver, lamb, let,
tuce, etc. A queer thing about
our new food departure is the
number of things it has led US to
put in our mouths which we never
thought of before"
