Miss May Frank, of Oakland, Cal,

A COSTLY DISH.
The Peacock at the Feast In Ancient and
Medieval Times

The Peacock at the Feast In Ancient and
Medieval Times.
Brehm informs us that the flesh of
the young peacock is very delicate, and
has "a wild odor" which is very agree
able He thinks an old bird fit only
for stewing. The Greeks must have
found it marvellous costly feeding, if it
be true, as Aelian says that a single
bird was worth a thousand drachmas-
nearly sixty pounds sterling. The es-
TEEN in which it was held in the last
days of the Roman republic did not di-
minish under the imperial regime.
Vitellius and Heliogabalus served up
to their boon companions enormous
dishes of peacocks' tongues and brains,
seasoned with the rarest Indian spices.
In medieval days it was still held in
favor, particularly as Christmas dish,
and minstrels sang of it as food for
lovers and meat for lords"
TO fit it for the table was no ordi-
nary culinary operation. After the
skin-and plumage-had been carefully
stripped off, the bird was roasted; then
served up again in it's feathers, with

it was first stuffed with spices and
sweet herbs and basted with yolk of
egg. 1t foated in sea of gravy, as
many as three fat wethers sometimes
supplying the unctuous liquor for a
single peacock.
No vulgar hands carried it to table,
but the fairest and most illustrious of
the danes and damsels present at the
feast, and it's arrival was announced
by strains of triumphal music. Had
the bird known the honors reserved for
it's obsequies, surely it would, like
Keats, have fallen ''half in love with
easeful death"
''By cock and pie!" exclaims Justice
Shallow-little knowing that his every
day ejaculation referred to the old
chivalrous usage of swearing over this
lordly bird to undertake any grim en-.
terprise worthy of a gallant knight.

on the peacock before he entered upon
his invasion of France?-All the Year

A CRiPPLE'S TALENT.
Wonderful Life-Work Performed Upon q
Bed of Pain.

An indolent boy, whose schooling
had been chiefly remarkable for his re-
sources for mischievous pranks, met
with an accident which disabled him
for life
In consequence of injuries affecting
hip and spine he became an incurable
cripple. His life hung in the balance
for many months, and when he began
to mend in general health it was with
out hope of his ever leaving his bed.
One day he was seized with strong
purpose. 81 must work, ;" he exclaimed
to his mother. II shall lose my mind
if l lie here counting my aches and
pains"
He asked her to prop him up with
pillows and to fetch his school books.
The pages disclosed an industry which
had interfered with serious study.
Fly-leaves and margins were illus
trated with humorous faces and boldly
drawn caricatures. Algebra and ge-
ometry were illumined with grotesque
portraits of teachers and schoolmates.
His Hneid contained a series of comic
pictures illustrating Dido's romantic
career and the adventures of her lover
in the spirit world.
The cripple had thought of his one
accomplishment, which had often
brought him into disgrace at school for
waste of time. He began by making
pen and ink drawings to illustrate COM
ical incidents and dialogues. A dozen
of these were sent to an illustrated pa
per, and six were accepted.
Encouraged by his success, he became
a regular contributor to several comic
journals, and ended by earning more
money than his brothers, who were
clerks in stores.
He was not strong enough to work
more than few hours morning and
evening; but when his pencil was idle
his mind was conjuring with grotesque
fancies Not satisfied with the wages
received for quips and cranks and hu-
morous cartoons, he resolved to learn to
etch, and finally became expert in the
use of tools and acids. Perceiving that
confinement indoors was restricting his
work to interiors, he designed bed on
wheels which could be rolled under
trees.
His health gradually failed, but am
bition spurred him on. "Work has
kept him alive" said his physicians; ''he
will die without it." When too weak
to use his pencil he passed quickly
away.
A life of physical anguish had been
ennobled by heroic persistence in turn
ing his one talent to good account

SCIENCE AND AMERICA.
The Glowing Tribute of a British Maga
zine to Our Industries.

Science is supreme in American pro-
duction, and the Americans have out
run us all in its application. They
were the first to utilize electricity, not
merely in the development of telegra-
ply and the kindred arts, but as
powerful ally in manufacture. In the
welding of metals, for instance, it now
plays an important part. 1t has re-
duced the price of aluminium from two
pounds and two shillings pound, and
the metal has now in consequence
passed into common use; it enters into
the fabric of the bicycle: it is made into
shoes for the horses of Russian cavalry;
it is embodied in the enigmatical figure
which crowns the Shaftesbury memo
rial
In iron and steel the use of highly
developed machinery, which is no more
than the application of science, has
revolutionized production. The new
drop-hammer has brought down the
price of American plows to less than
one pound, and in the making of all
sorts of agricultural implements it is
calculated that six hundred men can
now produce as much as two thousand
one hundred and fo ~ty-fve few years
ago. Where single workman could
make three dozen pairs of sleeve links
in day, a boy can now make nine
thousand.
The manufacture of pins still holds
its town as an 'object lesson;" but
whereas Adam Smith notes with aston
ishment and admiration ten men turn
ing out forty-eight thousand pins a
day, the modern American manufacture
er finds no difficulty in supplying seven
and a half millions in the same time,
as the result of the labor of five pairs
of hands. Compare this with the state
of things at the time of the war of in
dependence, when imported pins sold
for seven shillings and sixpence a doz-
en-, and when, to encourage home in
dustry, the government offered fifty
pounds for the best twenty-five dozen
of pins made in America equal to those
imported from England.-Edinburgh
Review.

Place Where Men Grow Up Perfectly
Chaste and Simple.
A man of the north who has local
reputation as a lazy man should see
Mexican ''puncher" loaf, in order to
comprehend that he could never achieve
distinction in the land where POGO
tempo means forever.
The baile-the song-the man with
the guitar-and under all this dolce far
niente are their little hates and bick-
erings, as thin as cigarette smoke and
as enduring as time. They reverence
their parents, they honor their patron
and love their compadre. They are
grave, and grave even when gay, they eat
little, they think less, they meet death
calmly, and it's terrible scoundrel
who goes to hell from Mexico.
The Anglo-American foremen are
another type entirely. They have all
the rude virtues. The intelligence
which is never lacking and the perfect
courage which never fails are found in
such men as Tom Bailey and Johnnie
Bell-two Texans who are the superiors
of any cow men have ever seen. l
have seen them chase the mavericks"
at top speed over country so difficult
that man could hardly pass on
foot out of walk. On one occasion
Mr.. Bailey, in hot pursuit of a bull,
leaped a tremendous fallen log at top
speed, and in the next instant tailed"
and threw the bull as it was about to
enter the timber Bell can ride pony
at gallop while standing up on his
saddle, and while Cossacks do this
trick they are enabled to accomplish it
easily from the superior adaptability
Of their saddles to the purpose. In
my association with these men of the
frontier have come to greatly respect
their moral fibre and their character
Modern civilization, in the process of
educating men beyond their capacity,
often succeeds in vulgarizing them,
but these natural men possess minds,
which, though lacking all embellish-
ment are chaste and simple, and utter
ly devoid of certain fippancy which
passes for smartness in situations
where life is not SO real. Frederic
Remington, in Harper's Magazine.
