ICE CREAM SODA IN LONDON.

1t Was introduced Only Recently, But It
Has Become = Craze Already.
The ice cream soda craze, which
American women have had so badly for
the past few years, has broken out in
London, said traveller recently re-
turned from abroad, according to the
New York Sun. It hasn't got firm
clutch on the English women vet. but

in the course of few years it will ma

ture was practically unknown in that
great city. The few English women
who had been to this country and
tasted it here of course knew what it
was, and they lost no time in patroniz-
ing the confectioner.
The great mass of women, however,
looked aghast at the combination of
strawberry sirup, live soda water, and
the ice cream. Those who got penough
courage to tackle it were not sorry that
they had done SO, and the result was
that it soon became necessary for other
confcctioners In the neighborhood to
get soda fountains and learn how to
mix the drink in order to hold their
trade. There are now half dozen or
more places in London where ice cream

agricultural Id depression, is too poor to
support its own library.

berry bushes and pear tree When
fruit ripened it had been the habit of
boys in the neighborhood to steal most
of the fruit. But the young wolf
stopped them the very first season
after it's arrival. No boy was safe in
the neighborhood of the vines or pear
tree.
But the wolf did have liking for
little girls-a liking more amiable than
that of its relative who is embalmed in
the tale of ''Little Red Riding Hood"
After one season of disappointment the
boys learned of this partiality on the
part of the wolf and then they used to
get little girls to steal the fruit for
them. The girls would walk boldly In
to the yard when the boys told them
there was no one watching, and if the
wolf approached one would stop and
play with him and the rest would get
the fruit. But no amount Of attention
would distract the VOLTS attention so
that boy could come in. He would
break away from the most enticing lit
tie girl and chase any boy over the
fence in short order. And he would
play around the little girls who were
stealing the fruit, but he would meyer
offer to harm them.
However, the girls didn't like to be
used III that manner, and there came
day when the boys could not get them
to steal the fruit After repeated trials,
and after watching the fruit grow SO
ripe that if not soon removed it would
be ripe enough for the family, one
of the boys hit on an excellent
ruse. He went home and bor-
rowed his sisters dress. Putting it
on, he climbed over the fence and ap-
preached the lair Of the wolf. AS he
prepared for seductive gambol with
the wolf, another boy, clad in another
calico dress, climbed over the fence and
approached the pear tree. But the wolf
was NOT to be deceived. He made q
rush for the one nearest him and caught
the dress in his sharp teeth. He tore
the garment into shreds before the lad
could escape. And then he went after
the one who tried to beguile him into
play. This boy was q little less for
tunate, for the wolf bit him rather Sc
verely; so the Lake View man sold him
to the park commissioners, and now he
frowns at boys and girls alike from be-
hind the bars.

examples have come to my notice DUR

of streets: The Drunken Butcher, the

ually result in cannibalism. London
ers are justly proud of their geological
gardens, and one Of the most interest
ing OF the larger cases contains two
well-developed specimens of the terri
bic boa constructor. The larger OF the
two snakes measures in length eleven
feet and its mate some two feet less.
They were very amiable pair, no
doubt having many experiences in COM
mon, and the subsequent tragedy, as
no female boa was in sight, must be set
down to the defective early training of
Boa Major. The python family, in spite
Of their swallowing whole cows at
once, have not very great appetites.
But, nevertheless, they occasionally
feel the force Of the axiom as to IVA
riety being the spice of life" and where
they have hitherto been contented with
one COW they sometimes add donkey
or some other trifle as side dish.
That is how Boa Major, of the Lon
don ''Zeo," became q cannibal. A few
days ago, having finished his break
fast, consisting of plump, wel-feath-
cred pigeon, he. felt unmistakably that
it was not sufficient Like Oliver, of
immortal memory, he wanted more, I"
and stood, as far as he could see, about
as much chance of getting it. Having
been badly brought up, he lost his
temper, which was not improved when
he noticed that his mate had only half
swallowed his pigeon.
He insinuated by attempting to forci-
bly, annex the other half that he would
like bit and Boa Minor refused, as he
felt hungry as well. What followed is
q mystery, as the keeper was absent at
tending to the other animals. On his
return the smaller snake had appar-
emily stepped out for mornings con-
.stitutional. the only occupant of the
case being Boa Major. quietly slumber-
ing with, as was subsequently discov-
cred, the other fellow inside. How he
killed him in the absence of anything
by which to obtain any leverage to use
his strength is mystery and it is hard
ly possible that number two allowed
himself to be swallowed alive.
The only sign of the trouble was the
increased bulk of the victorious animal.
He showed no signs of remorse nor ap-
parently of indigestion. He became
very sleepy and the only result, accord
ing to the keeper. will be that he will
not require to be fed for the next six
months.
