I need scarcely say that when he was not

ical anguish writes G. A. Sala, Thackeray
was one of the most delightful CONVERSE
tionists it was possible to imagine. There
were very few subjects indeed on which he
could not talk, and talk admirably. He was
as fluent in the French and in the German
as in the English language. He had, /
should say, a fair knowledge of Italian. He
was never tired Of discoursing about books
and bookmen, about pictures and painters,
about etcherS and engravers and htho-

When / came to know him intimately,
fully understood the reason for these sud-
den reactions of apparent hauteur and
''standoffishness." 1t was only his way.
He could not help that which probably was
due either to an acute spasm of bodily pain,
or the sudden passing of a black cloud
across the mind of one who, although he
could be upon occasion full of fun and
frolic, was not, should say. on the whole,

People From Europe Astonished by
An English health journal expresses great
surprise at the quantity of food eaten by
American against English laborers. 1t is
very curious to see how different foods pre-
ponderate in different industries. The tex
tile workers in Europe will have ninety-five
pounds of meat per annum for every 100
units Of consumption. or, say. q quarter Of
a pound of meat day. while steel workers
indulge in ia pounds for every 100 units.
On the other hand, the weaver consumes
more flour than the steel worker-275
pounds per 100 units instead of 2OS pounds.
He also takes about seventy-On pounds of
sugar more per 100 units. and q dozen more
eggs; of butter. lard and tea both take
about the same, though both in tea and
coffee the weaver a little exceeds the other.
That is, in the calling which demands the
greater muscular exertion,a 81 eater amount
of heterogeneous food is required
On the European continent the conSump-
ton Of meat by workers Is much less than
in Britain. Even liz the iron industry the
German is little more extravagant than the
English weaver, while the Frenchman con-
srmes only 81 "a pounds and the Belgian
55 IL pounds. On the other hand. the lat
ter consume mere flour and eggs. more than
twice as much of each. Their consumption
of coffee, too. Is large-14 pounds and 10
pounds respectively, to the Englishman s
8 1-2 pounds; but 1t must also be taken in
the reckoning that tea does not appear In
their accounts. But all these figures pale
before the statistics of food consumption in
America.
The Illinois iron worker manages to con-
sumo 1903 pounds of meat per 100 units,
and though this Is excessive. 206 IL pounds
are put down as the average of Pennsyl-
vania, 101 3+ pounds for Ohio. 1871 IA
pounds for West Virginia and 1855 pounds
for Tennessee. The average consumption
Of -four for the states Is about $50 pounds,
but voracious Illinois again comes to the
fore with 1866 pounds. and sugar, butter
and eggs are everywhere more lavishly used
than in Europe. Here, as in Europe, iron
and steel industries are found to be more
self-indulgent than any other trades, but
the expenditure here Is far above that of
even the most extravagant workers of
Europe. Much of the food accounted for
In these figures is actually consumed, but
large margin must be allowed for what
is wantonly destroyed. and when the his
tory of the waste OF food products in the
United States comes to be written it will
contain some startling and not altogether
pleasant reading.
