Ea1ing Lion and Hippopotamus.

The lion is eaten by some African
races, but its flesh is held in small es.
TEEN. The Zulus find carbon SO much
to their liking that, according to the
late Bishop Colenso, they apply to food
peopled by large colonies of larvae the
expressive word ''uborni." signifying,
in their uncouth iargon, "great happi-
ness. David Livingstone, that keen
and accurate observer, reminds us that
the aboriginal Australians and Hotten-
tots prefer the intestines of animals.
SIT is curious" he says, ''that this is the
part which animals always begin with,
and it is the first choice of our men. !"
On this point l may remind tine civilized
reader that the woodcock and the red
mullet or sea woodcock are both eaten
and rellshed without undergoing all the
cleansing processes which most animals
used for food among us generally ex-
perience to fit them for the table, SO that
our aversion to the entrails of animals is
not absolute, but only one of degree.
The hippopotamusi is favorite dish with
some Africans when they can get this
unwieldy and formidable river monster.
and when young its flesh is good and
palatable, but with advancing years it
becomes coarse and unpleasant. The
Abyssinians, the amiable people to
whom, according to the italian Prime
Minister, his country propose to teach
wisdom and humanity, find the rhino-
cerous to their taste; so they do the ele-
phant, which is also eaten in Sumatra.
DIR. Livingstone describes the elephants
foot as delicious, and his praises will be
echoed by many travellers in lands
where. that sagacious monster still lin
gers in rapidly decreasing numbers.
"We had the foot, wrote the great doc.
tor, cooked for breakfast next morning
and found it delicious. It is whitish
mass, slightly gelatinous, and sweet
like marrow. A long march to prevent
biliousness is wise precaution after a
meal of elephants foot. Elephants
tongue and trunk are also good, and
after long simmering much resem BILE
the hump of a buffalo and the tongue Of
an OK, but all the other meat is tough,
and from its peculiar flavor only to be
eaten by hungry man" [Cornhill

How to Swim.

There is no knack in swimming, al
belt few of us swim by instinct Re-
member that the one indispensable re-
quisite is confident belief that you
cannot sink while you keep your hands
under water and your legs the least in
motion. Every person should know
that his or her body is specifically light
er than the water. Plain swimming is
n perfectly easy and simple operation.
Keep your hands open, with the palms
rather concave, and the fingers close to-
gether, so that no water can pass be-
tween them. Lean with your chest on
the water, and as you throw the arms
forward your body will assume a hori-
zontal position just beneath the surface
With slow and steady action let the legs
follow the motions OF the arms, or rath-
er act simultaneously with them. Then
spread the hands SO as to describe
half circle, the elbows coming close to
the body and the hands to the chest. A
few yards is all you will accomplish at
first. Keep up your head in oil cases
and if you feel any inconvenience by
the water entering your mouth, close
your lips and it cannot get in. In get
ting ready for each successive stroke,
draw back your legs by simultaneous
motion, keep the feet wide apart with
the toes we'll turned out, and as you
send out the arms kick the legs back
wards and sideways to the full extent,
keeping them separate until they have
described as wide circle as possbl
the legs closing together at the end of
each stroke. Press against the water
with the sole of the foot, and not with
the toes and you will make more easy
and rapid progress. For you must re-
collect that, though the limpid water
divides easily enough as your hands and
feet pass through it, real resistance il
offered by it to the body of the swimmer;
and it is on this resistance you must to
q certain extent, rely in propelling
yourself forward. Without this stimuli
taneous action of the arms and legs it is
impossible to become good swimmer.
In propelling the body through the wa
ter, it is of the utmost consequence to
use the feet properly; and to do so it is
necessary so to turn the ankle joint that,
in drawing the leg up after the kick, the
instep, or upper part of the foot, offers
the smallest possible resistance to the
water This action of the ankle is ex-
ceedingly important, and is indeed one
OF the great secrets of good swimming.

Moralizing The Two Dinner Pals.

Two workmen sat down by the edge Of
new building on Third street and pre-
pared to eat their dinners, which they
had brought with them in covered has.
kets, and the sketch artist, who was
waiting for q car, had the audacity to
peer into the baskets to see how we'll a
workingman can live. There was n
great similarity in the appearance of the
two men and in the outside of the bas-
kets, but when the lids were raised they
revealed totally different contents. One
had light, sweet-looking home made
bread, cut in thick, white slices, clean
cut slices Of cold meat, two hard boiled
eggs, and section of gooseberry pie.
It was a regular picnic lunch, and Il
showed thrift, good cooking. and a
woman's loving hand. The other mans
lunch was miscellaneous collection Of
broken bits, scraps of bakers bread
cold fried potatoes, soggy bone and a
crust OF cheese. But herein lies n
moral command-judge not! AS the
sketch artist stepped on the car, the
man with the appetizing lunch asked Of
his comrade: Jimmy, man, how is tho
old woman the day2" Very slowly the
answer came: "Awful bad, Mickey. and
gittin' wuss," and that little by-talk
told the story of his home life and the
neglected food.-[Detr Free Presse.

that 6axony is doing more for this class
OF unfortunates than any other country
in Europe. They do not stop with
having taught the blind to read and
write, and work at some industry, but
follow them up after leaving school, give
them something in the way of capital to
aid them to start up in trade and desig-
nate some one to continue an oversight
over them SO that they can dispose of
what they manufacture at profit, and
prevent them from being cheated and
abused. Every blind man, woman and
child is looked after and helped so that
they are not obliged to resort to beg
gary or any vicious crime which would
corrupt and degrade them.

A Queer Cure for SunstrOke.

Senior Catarsi, fruit, dealer who does
business on the south side of Fulton
market, New York, told an Evening Sun
reporter recently how victims'of sunstroke
were treated in sunny Italy. "Take the
patient and prop him up straight in a
chair, then fill glass with ice water,
place towel over the top and press it
down on the persons head, holding it so
tight that the water won't run out. All
the heat in the body then becomes con-
centrated in the head, and is gradually
drawn out by the water. The
water soon grows warm, but the
glass must not be removed until it boils.
This is not fairy story I'm telling you.
If the glass is kept on the head long
enough you can see the water bubbling
inside. The length of time required de-
ponds on the seriousness of the case. The
worse the sunstroke. the quicker the water
boils. 1t is sure cure" Mr.. Catarsi is
a man of intelligence. He is educated
and his wife is school teacher. His
remedy is a remarkable one.
