The Popularity of Cnstard.

Very few of those who habituallv
eat at the cheap restaurants in the
vicinity of the city hall can have fail
ed to notice the large amounts of Gus
tard pies and custard buildings which
are consumed by men, and mostly
middle aged men at that. Custard
In one of its various forms and glass
of milk constitute very large part
OF the luncheons that are eaten.
When the manager of one of these
eating houses was asked for an ex-
PLANTATION of the phenomena recently,
he said:
1--WE undoubtedly sell big lot of
custard, especially in pies. Most men
seem to like it, and there is heavy
demand for it in summer. But there
is another reason for it's popularity.
1t is quick lunch. A man can eat
custard about as fast as he can drink
| a glass of water, and with many of
our customers that appears to be
tthe thing desired. They want Some.
thing that will not keep them long,
and custard being pleasant enough in
itself is hit upon. We have our reg
ular custard customers, and tell you
they can eat their favorite dish in
record time. It's wonderful even tc
me, and l see a good many varieties
of gormands. Brooklyn Eagle.

Nature Versus Science.

With all his undoubtedly wonder
full advances in the science of engi-
neering, man has not outrivaled ma
ture even yet. Take the case of the
exchange of power for speed. The
wild duck, it has been tritely OBJ
served, is about the last bird we
should expect speed from. It has
enormous surface, is very heavy
forward and has a comparatively
long neck and heavy head, and at the
same time it has very small wings,
but Notwithstanding these apparent
disadvantages the wild duck is one
of the swiftest birds in flight, sur
passed only by the wild goose, which
is even more heavily handicapped.
The whale is q ponderous bulk,
having propellers which are exactly
the reverse of what we should sup
pose the correct position, lying hori-
zontally on the water when at rest
instead of vertically, as vessels pro-
pellers are. Moreover, the fukes of
the whales screw are very small in
deed, and also the reverse of what
man makes. Their least surface is
at the tip and their largest at the
hub or junction of the body, but a
whale goes through the water with
this apparatus like fast steamboat
and can tow a heavy whaleboat full
of men at most surprising velocity.

Within belfry H. bloom,
Above the garden wall they swing,
A chime of bells Tor winds to ring,
OF mingled music and perfume.
What scented syilables of song
Throughout the day their tongues re-
peat!
They tempt with promise, honey sweet,
The listener to linGer long.
A bit of sunset cloud astray,
The dappled butterfly floats near
Lured by the fragrant music clear
Trembles with Joy, then fades away.
And thither oft. from time to time,
The humming bird and golden bee
List and so mad with melody
The honey music of the chime.
And thither, when the silver CLEAN
OF moon and stars is over all,
One white moth hovers near the wall
A ghost to haunt the gardens dream!
