French Restaurants.

NtW
French restaurants in New York are OF
two kinds-those that are amazingly cheap
and those that are amazingly good. The
former are usually managed on the table
d'hote plan and are better known than the
others, which are usually la carte. The
proprietor of one of the best of the latter,
now removed from the French quarter to an
uptown site, was asked the other day
whether he had his old cook of former DAYS.
"C'est madame" was the prompt reply as
he nodded toward his wife. madame is the
kitchen and she does the marketing" Such
Is the truth about the best Of the French
a 10 carte restaurants. Some economical
French woman, with a conscience In cook
cry, buys the best that tho market affords
and sees that good food is not insulted with
bad cooking.

Mice vacating Their Stamping Ground,

An extraordinary phenomenon has been
noticed IN Southwestern Russia. The mice
Whlch nave INFESTED not only the fields but
the towns aud villages for wears have en-
tirely disappeared. The Kiew-Slowo Ga
zette reports that in the spring of 1891 the
mice plague in that part OF Russia was ter
rife. the inhabitants were at a loss to know
what TO do and feared greatly for their
crops. Strange to say, at the close of sprIne.
1882, the rodents departed from the country
and left nothing behind them to testify TO
their presence but innumerabIe holes in
fields and gardens, nor have they put in an
appearance since.

Feather beds have an inexplicable and
undeserved popularity in the Southern
States. Even in summer the Northern yisi-

of every negro housewife to possess such n
bed. An old coored woman who came
North leaving her husband behind her in
Virginia, bemoaned the fact that she had
not heard from home for many weeks. but
astonished those who suggested that doubt
less her husband was in good health nv the
announcement that she was not Worrying
