Never having been in Virginia. I an |
able to Judge only by hearsay OF the good /
things with which the tables groan. /
| But | can give personal evidence as to /
what it is possible for PENNSYLVANIA /
| cooks 10 Go IN way Of satisfying the /!
appetite.
1t has been my good fortune to dine /
IN many states upon a variety of food, /
from the baked beans and brown bread !
from Boston to boiled salmon OF Oregon
and Chinese dishes of San Francisco,
and Spanish tomales of southern Cali /
fornia; but never in any other section
of the country have my eyes and palate
Toasted upon such a prodigal display
OF tempting things as III the old Dutch
settlements of Pennsylvania. Imagine
if you can-but there is no use in try
4 ing to enumerate the things, Just turn
10 Washington Iryings account Of the
entertainment furnished at the home
+ of Ichabod Crane Sweetheart, Katrina
van Tassell, and add thereto anything
YOU think to be missing to furnish forth
a repast worthy Of note and the account
Is complete.
! | admit there may be little lacking
in the way of daintiness in serving, no
I round OF courses beginning with "broth
and cracker" and ending up with
/ black coffee, water biscuits and shay
ing of foreign cheese, but for a good
hearty appetite nothing could be more
/ satisfactory.
! My own opinion has been that the
one thing lacking was capacity sufficient
to properly do justice to the display

/ Interested in many things besides his
"Wild West Show" The Duluth Press

Gus and other varieties of ailments Sit
ated on Duluth Heights it commands

/ What fine thing for Superior, land
the pocket books of the projectors
would he Hay Fever Sanitorium on
! Wisconsin Point. Then when our
/ natural entry is made the point of en-
/ trance for passenger boats, as it no
I doubt Will be IN time, patients could be
/ landed right at the point. The future
Of Superior as a summon resort both
! Tor pleasure and health seekers rests
largely with her people. The head of
! the lakes is bound to become the Mecca
of many inyaiids III the summer months
/ and if we desire our share of the pill
grims, we must follow the lead of our
noighbor and prepare for them. 1t is
/ conceded that our hotels are among the
/ best to be found anywhere, but semi
invalids require the excellence of first
/ class table plus all the aids science can
/ give for the restoration of health.

Speaking of Sanitariums | am remind
! ed Of an amusing anecdote told me by
/ one of the physicians of New York
/ Stat
! pass one afternoon after hours, the'gcn-
! tlemen's bath hall, his attention was at
tracted by a most unusual splashing;
! pushing open the swinging door of the
! bath room he discovered a stOutlv built
man plunging wildly back and forth in
a tub half full of water Upon the doc
! tors inquiry as to what he was doing,
/ the reply was my doctor ordered me
to take a running foot bath every day"
%H4k
1t was al the same resort which bv
! the way is renowned for its strong sui
! phur waters, that patient, lady, ar
! rived after dark at night, and early the
! following morning sent for the head
/ physician who found her in a cold
! room, window raised, and she envelop-
ed in all her clothing plus the bed
/ blankets. Not giving him even a chance
/ to enquire the reason, the lady launch
! ed forth into a TRADE in which the dis
/ agreeable odors, and the apparent i'm
/ PROJECTIONS of the sewerage system were
/ the principal points. When the doctor
was given the opportunity he remark
/ ed that the place was noted for It's sui
/ phur springs and that her window hap
/ pened to open toward one. Tableau

sas instead of being the modern mon
/ strosity that 50 many newspapers have
made her, is according to the Minnea-
] polls Journal, and the general verdict of
/ her numerous admirers and friends
rarely cultured womanly woman, and
( full of sweetness and charm. When&sk- /
ed if she belonged to the Populist party
I her reply was, "a woman who is class
ed with children, insane persons and
idiots has no vote and can belong to no
4 party" She does not profess to be az
itating the suffrage question although
she believes it rightfully belongs to
I women, but holds that it must come
gradually and that she is Fastening the !
day by proving to the world of men
that 1t is possible for q woman to have !
/ firm grasp of public questions and abil-
ity to express herself
