Perhaps the greatest refinement in
fattening is exhibited in the manner
of feeding ortolans. The ortolan is a
small bird, esteemed a great delicacy
| by Italians. 1t is the fat of this bird
which is so delicious; but it has a be-
1 culiar habit of feeding, which is on
posed to its rapid fattening-that is.
that it feeds only at the rising of the
sun. Yet this popularity has NOT
proved an insurmountable obstacle TO
the Italian gourmands.
The ortolans are placed in warm
chamber, perfectly dark, with only
one aperture in the wall. Their food
is scattered over the floor Of the
chamber.
At certain hour in the morning
the keeper of the birds places a Ian
tern in the orifice of the wall: the
dim light thrown by the lantern on
the floor Of the apartment induces
the ortolans to believe that the sun
is about to rise, and they greedily
consume the food upon the floor,
More food is now scattered over il.
and the lantern is withdrawn.
The ortolans, rather surprised at
the shcrtness of the day, think il
their duty to fall asleep, as night has
spread his sable mantle round them
During sleep, little of the food being
expended in the production of force
most of it goes to the formation or
muscle and fat.
After they have been allowed ia
repose for one or two hours, in order
TO complete che digestion of the food
taken, their keeper again exhibits
the lantern through the aperture.
The rising sun second time jllumi-
mates the apartment; and the birds
awaking from their slumber. annlv
themselves voraciously to the food on
the floor; after having discussed
which, they are again enveloped IN
darkness. Thus the sun is made IN
shed its rising rays into the chamber
four or five times every day. and as
many nights follow its transitorv
beams. The ortolans, thus treated

In the Poor Quarters Of Paris.

Rue de Belleville, Rue Oberkampf,

Boulevard de Bellevlllc, etc. In tdeso
quarters are concentrated thirds OF
the population of Paris. On these
heights, that form, as it were, a crown
above rich Paris, some of the houses con-
tain as many as two hundred inmates,

And yet, with all that, there is no OBJ

are gay and much given to witticisms and
levity; they enjoy the hustle and anima-

have only to walk few yards in any

and those tiue urban parks which tho
traditions of Haussman have extended
even to the poorest quarters OF the city.

How He Knew.

Before the fish commissioners OF
California decided to stock the st,eams
of the state with that much dcspised
and powerful fish, the German carp,
they were greatly concerned as to
whether it would live in certain waters.
The question was debated at several
meetings, and was finally subm ted
to Prof. II, an eminent authority.
Samples of the waters were obt lined
and turned over to the professor, who
in short time submitted favorable
report, and the carp was Immediately
turned loose in the rivers.
The commissioners were greatly
imposed by the, professors knowledge,
but one of them had question to ask.

would live in the water?' he i'll

"Why." answered the prosessor,
with an amused loo'l, 81 bought carp

Two Imperial German spendthr,rs..

1t is not generally known that the
German Empress, in spite OF her
many excellent qualities, is very ex-
trayagant and owes large sums OF
money to many Of the Berlin trades
men. one firm alone having a bill OF
800, 900 marks, or $40, 600, against
her majesty. The Empress never
wears either dress, mantle or
bonnet the second time IN public.
and everything that she buys is of
the very best.
The Emperor is also very largely
in debt, in spite CT the handsome
present made to him last spring by
the Empress Frederick, who advanced
him 800, 600 marks. The Emperor
has, unfortunately, not the slightest
idea of money, and scatters it right
and left, TO the great horror Of MANY
Of his loyal subjects. Lon don World,

The Girl I Left Behind Me. !

One rainy day in the late winter of
1882 | found myself bag and baggage
on the railway platform at Grand

sened in the distance | took a sui vey
of my surroundings. Not a tree, not

as if il might iugulf one to be some

into its original cay.
had been travelling through the
West, and now on my way here / had
stopped 10 see one who was my Oldest
and dearest friend, the wife of the
superintendent of mine on the head
waters of the White river. She had
tried to prepare me for the discom-
forts of the journey after | should
leave the railroad, but | found no
words uid describe it as vividly as |
afterwards felt it, and l heartily
wished myself safe in the luxury of
Pullman and speeding eastward. How
over Irulled myself together and went
to the agent to ask when the stage
would leave for Meeker, and found
could not go till morning; so giving a
small boy quarter to carry my giip,
] giugerly picked my way from brick
TO brick along the causeway that led
TO the town proper.
The next morning was Gear and
pleasant and the air bracing as we
dragged laboriously out north through
the amast bottomlcss clay road.
There were no other passengers, but
two men and myself, so turned my
attention 10 the scenery.
The Two men had eyed me curiously
at first and then began talking o. mines
and the various arts and tricks of the
INSCRIPTIONS 10 outwit the guillible

came their apparent difiiJence in adj
