The ART OF EATING.-"When my
children get to the proper age" said
the man who was smoking briar pipe,
''I intend to have them taken in hand
by some competent person and given
q 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.
81 mean this: The average Ameri-
can citizen is woefully deficient in
knowledge of what he can get to eat.
He falls down when it comes to order
ing a dinner. The great majority of
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 compo-
nent parts. He dares not order any
thing that he is not sure of, for fear of
ridicule, and he falls back on roast
beef and mashed potatoes. Same way
in q restaurant.
'New sir, my children are going to
know what's what when it comes to
eating. No roast beef domination y
shall be my household slogan"

SCARCITY OF GAME-Considerab
talk is heard about the alarming scar
city of birds and other small game in
the State, and it is said that a move
ment will be started to induce the Leg
islsture during the coming session to
pass law prohibiting any shoosing of
cartridges, pheasants and wild turkeys
for period of two years. Sportsmen
say that in portions of Virginia where
game was few years ago abundant it is
now almost impossible to find any. 1t
has been killed so wantonly that hard
ly enough is left for breeding purposes,
and unless something is done there Will
be mono left in a few years. Hawks
and foxes are about as bad on the birds
as the hunters, and those who take a
pride in the sport hope that some
means can be provided to exterminate
these enemies of the birds.
