THE ART OF EATING.
Few People Know How to Order a
Dinner In Proper Style.

From tine Buffalo Express.
When my children get to the proper age"
said the man who was smoking a briar
pipe, Il intend to have them taken in hand
by some competent person and given a
thorough instruction in the art of eating
and, further, in the science of finding out
what to eat and ordering
What do you mean?" inquired the man
who sat next to him.
Il mean this: The average American citi-
zen Is woefully deficient in knowledge of
what he can get to eat. He falls down when
1t comes to ordering dinner. The great
majority of people in this country are
brought up frugally at home and do not
know anything but the commonest dishes
The consequence is that when a man goes
into restaurant for dinner or to a hotel
he gazes helplessly at the bill of fare and
sees many things of which he does not know
the component parts. He dares not order
anything that he is not sure of, for fear of
ridicule. and he falls back on roast beef and
mashed potatoes. The fact is, he doesn't
know anything but roast beef. Same way
In restaurant. When a waiter shoves a
bill OF fare under mans nose, nine times
out OF ten he will look it over and then say,
Gimme steak and some fried potatoes
Now, the man who does this, and nearly
every one of us does do it day after day.
doesn't want roast beef. He is sick unto
death of steaks and fried potatoes. He
loathes ham and eggs, and yet he keeps on
ordering them in dreary and dyspeptic sue
cession, because he doesn't know any better
and he is too proud to confess his ignorance
It's that way with me and III bet it's that
way with most Of you. l am going to re-
lleve my children of all these things They're
going to know what's what when 1t comes
to eating. No roast beef domination. shall
be my household slogan"
And the rest Of the party thought Il over
and concluded that he was pretty nearly

The Sailors Got seolnsion.

Years ago, when the full rugged man.
o'-war was fright in line" the Hartford
put into Boston harbor and dropped
anchor off the Charlestown navy yard
one fine day. The Hartford at that time
was as much an object Of wonder and
admiration as the gallant New York or
Boston is today, and visitors focked
aboard her in great numbers. Her cap
tain, an Obliging man, made every effort
to see that his visitors were well cared
for, and personally he showed party aft
er party over the ship. At the mess
hour it was his habit to take the curious
down to the berth deck that they might
see how the sailors ate their meals. That
was before they had tables on board the
vessels of war, and when the mess cloth
was spread on the deck.
The sailors did not mind this at first
but after time it became irksome
They came to the conclusion that theil
privacy was being interfered with, and
so finally they decided to put stop tt
it. The next time the captain took
party down to show them his happy
family as it paid tribute to the innermar
an old salt, the acknowledged leader
reached for certain bowl. This was thi
signal, and forthwith dozen sunburned
brawny arms were stretched forward to
ward that self same bowl, and hvel1
tussle for possession ensued. The cap
tain stood aghast. Such unseemly con
duct paralyzed him, but before he coul(
recover there was an apparently viciou
'scrap" going on, and before his visitor
too. This was too much for him, ant
afterward the sailors partcok of theil
meals uninterrupted.-B Globe.

The Well Of Frozen Air.

Near Dayton, Or, there Is a we'll 10
cally known as the "well of frozen air. F"
In drilling 1t a stratum of frozen clay
and gravel was encountered at depth OF
90 feet. After passing through FIVE feet
OF this numerous cavities were encoun.
tered from which cold air came with
sharp gusts. The escape Of the air from
the well may be heard a distance OF
nearly 200 yards, and it is 80 frigid that
1t is not possible for any one to hold his
hand over the opening for more than a
few minutes without having it frozen
stiff. A bucketful of water set near the
mouth Of the well will freeze through
during one nights time. It Is needless
TO add that work on the well was aban,
doned as soon as these frigid blasts found
vent through the opening made by Che
drill.-Philadelphia Press.

So Called Men Milliners.

Against tailor cut dresses draped by
women we enter no kind of caveat, yet
it would seem in the highest degree de-
sirable that the department of millinery
should not be invaded by men. The ad-
vocates of female labor contend, it is
true, that men suffer from an incurable
incapacity to build bonnets. CONNER
cially they may be practically imam
milliners, but technically and artistical-
ly it is only daughter of Eve who can
construct that airy, mysterious and al
together delightful structure, a first rate
fashionable bonnet.
An optimist has declared that if fe-
male Of fair capacity, good taste and
approved skill as a needlewoman were
locked up by herself in top attic with
nothing on her work table but an onion,
a tomato, some bits of colored paper, a
few feathers and some red and white
tape and green ferret she would be able
in the course of a few hours to construct
a most elegant bonnet which, however
coarse in texture it might appear to the
eye, would photograph in a most pictur-

not succeed in producing anything be-
yond a rude, clumsy and ungainly sim
ulacrum of bonnet.
AS maker of hats, equality with il
not superiority over the other sex may
perhaps be claimed for the man. He in

noon sun cause q rapid evaporation from

An odd Form Of cOurtship.

Mr.. Mortimer Menpes, the artist, trav-
cling in the east in search of subjects, has
come upon curious form of courtship.
Sketching one day in Burlnah, he no
ticed man little distance off glaring
fiercely straight ahead Of him at some
object he could not see from his position.
The man sat with the same fixed glare
the whole afternoon and was at it again
next morning. Mr.. Menpes had the Gu
riosity to ask an English visitor what ii
meant. The reply was, "Oh. he is in
lover And it was explained that this
was their method of courtship.
The object of the mans attentive gaze
was a girl in aneighboring bazaar. When
a young man falls in love. he has to seat
himself at a certain distance from his
adored one and wait for her to do the
rest. If she looks in his direction once
or twice on the first or second day, he is
wildly encouraged, and If on the third
day she mods to him and smiles it Is
time to go to the parents with reference
to the marriage settlements.-LondoI

The Medical Profession.

Every new treatment, every fresh
drug, every medicine that is discovered
is one more drop from the great ocean
of knowledge segregated that we may
study it for the benefit of mankind. In
it there are good and evil, but if we ap-
proach it with reverent earnestness and
study that we may know we can assure
ourselves that we are helping on the
great science to which we have devoted
our lives. This is reward enough, and
this reward shall surely come to the
physician who will work. The amelio-
ration of the physical ills of man is the
end and aim of our most noble profes
sion, and it is pleasant to remember thai
even the enthusiasts aid in the great
work by their devotion to their fads.-
