Queer DelicacieS.

In every age and cline, man has
sought to combine profit and pleasure.
Especially has this been true in refer
ence to food. We seem to have an in.
herent desire to satisfy our stomach
and please our palate with the same ar
ticle; more often, however we please
the latter with no thought of the former.
Yet, opinions differ as to what are real
delicacies. For instance, just at this
moment I recall the following relishes:
rattlesnakes, pythons, frog-legs, locusts,
ants, birds nests, rats, dogs, poi sauer-
kraut, Limburger cheese, oysters and
goose livers. Quite an assortment; yet,
only few of the esteemed dishes of
various races are mentioned. The last
dish above mentioned gave rise to an
old but very servicable adage which is
stance. 1t was in the days of Confu-
Chinese-that a merchant discovered
to satisfy both palate and stomach. To
secure these in large quantities of the
best quality, a system of feeding was
applied that permitted the goose to eat
great variety of food and plenty of it.
Besides this, the only requirement nec-
essary to produce abnormally enlarged
liverS being confinement in seperate
compartments with little water and less
freedom of movement For while
the merchant was satisfied with his
profits, then greed took possession of
him. He thought to increase his profits
by lowering the cost of food; for, after
much study, he concluded that quality
and not quantity had produced his ia
nous goose livers. He thereupOn sub
stituted sound flesh producing foods for
the mushy stuff formerly fed. For a
time the geese ate the food substituted,
but gradually they quit it altogether
and soon became mere bundles of fea-
theirs. Livers, not feathers were being
paid for, so seeing the result of his
experiment and not wishing to sustain
further loss, he resumed his old method
of feeding all kinds of food and plenty
of it to each particular goose. Thus
originated the adage: "YOu may lead
goose to grass but you can't make
him eat" LEONARDUs.

HEREAFTER.

Not yet. not while the eyes are wet with tears;
Not while the heart is swept by fears:
Not now but afterward. when free.
Standing in light, unshadowed. we shall see
Why pitying Love burned one by one.
Our little idols, sometimes Sparing none.
But leaving us so bare that we would fain
Call in sheer loneliness upon His name.
Hereafter, when the tears are shed,
When lifes last chapter has been read,
With all its troubled words. we shall be glad
So many days He made us sad;
Read standing in the light and know
Loves every reason for our woe.
George Klingle in NelU York Observer.

opinion has been one of the main causes
of the establishment of the numerous
manual training schools and Institutes
throughout the country, and these have
superseded to great extent the old
system of apprenticeship.

being made in other powders in an effort to get
mixture that will not cake" or lose its strength,
or that follow changes of propnetorshp or manu-
facturers. The Royal Baking Powder is always
certain and equal in its work; teaspoonful does
the perfect work to-day that it did yesterday,
or last week or month, or last year.
While the last teaspoonful in a can Of Royal IS
as good as the first, other powders lose their
strength after being made short time, and par
ticularly after the can is opened.
The exactness with which the active principle
of each ingredient prior to mixing is ascertained
by expert CHEMISTS the actual prohibition enforced
against the receipt into the works of an impure in
gredient; the care with which the materials are
dried, coated and prepared before their combina-
ton, and the precision in packing the powder so
that ii shall be delivered to the consumer in the
perfect condition in which it leaves the factory,
