Points of Interest Concerning Valuable
Article of Food.

Points of Interest Concerning Valuable
Article of Food.
Boston, October 18-"Who'll buy cal
Ter herrin?" Aye, and who'll buy
cruddy cod?'' two famous cries Of the
vendors of the eastern and western Scot
fish seaports. Of the "he-rin'' shall
have nothing to say in this article save
that it is a 'bonny fish and wholesome
farm. ;" wish to deal only with the
"cruddy" (curdy) cod. And perhaps it
is well to premise by explaining what
curdy cod, or a curdy fish of any kind,
for that matter, means.
A curdy fish is, de facto, fresh fish
But the curd is not perceptible unless
the fish is boiled or pumped into boil
ing water before or Immediately after
its death. The boiling coagulates the
blood, and between the layers of flesh
we find "a white curdlike substance-the
blood-which has given rise to the name
of curdy fish, or, as the Scotch and Irish
fisherwOlnen have it, cruddy. OF one
thing hOusekeepers may feel sure, and
that IS, If any fish they purchase shows
signs of this curdy formation between
the layers after boiling, they have
fresh, newly killed fish, whereas if the
layers of flesh lie close together without
any sign of curdiness they have purchas-
ed fish that is either in bad condition
or has been long dead.
These are very important points for
the housewife as we'll as for the con-
sumner of the fish, but / wish to deal
more definitely with another phase in
the culinary life of the dead Goldfish 1t
is a matter which has been grievously
overlooked, both by the managers of the
boards of health and those responsible
for the dissemination of knowledge con-
corning food fishes Vey often a cook
or housewife purchases a Goldfish and
proceeds to clean it. There is between
the layers of fiesh-chiefy around the
region of the belly-numerous thread
like white worms, - and it is immedi-
ately condemned as unsound. Some
times the cook does not notice these
curious white 'ffesh worms, - and the
fish is sent to table, only to irritate pa
terfamilias by his wonderful discovery
that the lady of the house or her cook
''has been swindled into buying bad
fish. +" The worms are forthwith in
spected by the family, and the unoffend-
ing Goldfish is voted bad.
In these days of Representatives,
about hygiene and food it is perhaps
pardonable to excuse people for blindly
accepting old notions as to what is bad
or good, especially where those ideas
concern what goes into ones stomach
But a little lesson upon the worm
in that most useful of fishes, the cod,
will not be inapropos now, as we ale
approaching the best season of the year

a Ptcturesnue Kentucklan.

The late General Frank Wolford was
picturesque survival of the old-tiIae
Kentuckian. 1t has been said of him
that he was a cross between Davy
Crockett and Bishop Bascom, and
while he said "whar" and thar" and
pint Gfor point and "sot." he knew
the bible almost by heart. once when
asked at Chamberlain what dishes he
preferred to choose from the elaborate
bill of fare he replied: "Drap dump
Inns and billed hen" He was an ideal
soldier-the Forrest of the federal
army-yet he could not discipline his
troops. When rebuked for this in 4
review of the Army of the Cumberland,
he said: II know nothing about our
drills and maneuvers, but my boys
know how to shoot. You may take any
two regiments in the army, station
them whar you please, and I will take
my regiment, and what I don't kill OF
them I will chase out of the state Of
Tennessee in forty eight hours"

Norway is a small country, and the
sayings and doings of its people do not
get into newspaper type very ,ften, but
the Norweigans, nevertheless, have
claim upon celebrity due to The fact
that the average length of life is greater
there than in any other country in Eu-
rope. Recent statistics show that for
males the average is 48 years and three
months, and for females it is 81 years
and three months. 1t is a valuable
com mentary on this that the mortality
in Norway is II per cent less than in
the center or west of Europe, this be-
ing due to the fact that a far smaller
number of infants die there than in
any other country.

for this generous product Of the ocean.
This worm is really a parasite
There are parasites in every fish. from
the king salmon to the despised dogfish.
But none of these parasites is dangerous
to health, if the fish is properly cooked
As a rule, the parasite confines his hab-
itat to the intestines Of the fish, but
sometimes he assumes 4 boring trait,
and then he makes his way through the
intestinal wall and enters the flesh,
where he grows quickly and alarms tho
housewife when she is preparing the
fish for the table
OF course there are almost endless va
rieties of parasites. Some OF then. in
fest the mouths of the fishes only and
are most useful companions, inasmuch
as they devOur the food that would be
injurious to their hosts and thus insure
that the fish shall receive only whole
some food. Others incrust themselves
upon the skin or head Of the fish and
make it look as if the animal was COW
cred with warts, while still others, and
this is the most general class, 1.-Two in
the alimentary canal and other mites
tines.
The latter class of parasites is the one
that is responsible for the ''woIIHJ" con-
dition that is observable in Tie Goldfish,
and it will be acceptable ncHYs 70 ali
lovers of this fish that it in no way takes
from or deteriorates the quality of the
flesh. AS a matter of fact, the 2ct Of
cooking at once destroys the life Of this
parasite, and as it had lis being and
lived entirely upon tho fish ;t has be-
come a part of it and IS on should be
quite as acceptable an article Of food,
as component part OF the cod, rs the
nonparasitical fish.
The manner i'll which parasites are
received by fishes has given food for
deep scientific study, and ichthyologists
have spent years of careful research
with Interestingly valuable results. It
has been found that primarily the para
site has not his origin i'll the fish itself.
All intestinal parasites are received in
to the intestines i'll a larval condition
when the fish is feeding, aud having
affixed themselves to the intestinos
thrive and multiply increasingly. A
good many of the most dangerous of
these parasites are created in the mites
tines of sea birds, especially the pelican,
where they are formed i'll the shape of
IapeWOrm eggs IneSe eggs crop upon
the waters and are devoured by the fish
es, with a result that dangerous boring
parasites are developed, often destroy
ing the fish Then, as if to perpetuate
the scourge, the pelican eats the fish,
and the parasite, i'll the intestines of
the bird, grows to be tapeworm again.
But the Goldfish parasite to which
refer is not of this class. 1t is taken in
the ordinary food of the fish. 1t is not
dangerous to health; it in 10 way in
terferes with its quality, aud consumers
