People who have taste for ice cream,
and liking for this dish is not altogether
limited TO women, should try the fad Of
eating Boston brown bread with their
cream. 1t is combination that will de-
light any lover of good living. The other
night three young men dined at quite
popular restaurant down town, and when
It came time for them to have some dessert
one proposed that they should try this
novelty. Unfortunately, the restaurant did
not have an excellent quality of ice cream
and had no brown bread at all, so the
young men went to another restaurant
near by where both are obtainable. There
is sold there a most excellent ice cream
which is called Italian, though it might
just as well be called Russian or French, or
anything else. 1t is rich and yellow and
favored with the vanilla bean, which is
ground up and sprinkled through the
cream, so that it looks very much as If pep
per had been thrown in il. A spoonful of
this ice cream placed upon the edge of a
slice of Boston brown bread is a mouthful
to linger over and remember with pleas
ure. This combination is far better than
the more common one of Boston brown
bread ice cream, which is really nothing
more than ice cream frozen, with the
crumbs of brown bread mingled in it,

Sable Island, which lies about 200 miles
to the west OF Halifax, Nova Scotia, is
little known save TO shipwrecked mari
ners. So many sailors have been cast
ashore there that it has gained the name
of the ocean graveyard" The island is
used as beacon station on which the
Canadian government maintains two light
houses and stores Of provisions to be used
in case Of shipwrecks. As there is no COM
munication between Sable island and the
main land except by means of chance YES
sells, it has often happened that ship
wrecked seamen have been kept on it for
a long time without being able to make
their condition known. The Dominion
government now proposes to overcome
this difficulty by establishing a regular
system of pigeon post between the island
and Halifax. a homery is to be estab-
lished at the latter place, and an occa-
sional consignment Of trained birds is to
be despatched TO the former, which will be
available as messengers in any special
emergency. It is stated that the Canadian
