very heavy shock of earthquake here

go with a rurnb BILE that suggests a
speedy repetition. We are thankful to
be alive.

This is the first time any such re-

SIaIagasy Cookery.

Cooking being an art, every race has
style of its own. The Malagasy, like
the gentle Hindoo, knows how TO pre-
pare his mess of rice. 1t is not boiled TO
a mash, as in England, or as our pota-
toes are sometimes pulped; but, covered
with proper sufficieney of water, it is
carefully treated until the grains are
swollen fit 10 burst, and yet remain full,
intact, soft and rather mealy. The
manioe root is an easier dish to prepare
1t is sometimes served boiled, as vans
and sweet potatoes, and again as a sort
of cold pOrridge. Native coffee they I'M
derstand how to make, and the aroma
Is excellent. But tea-alas. you have to
look to the brewing Of that from start
20 frish if you desire a drinkable cup.
Poultry and game are eaten fresh, and
the cooks have clever and withal
clearly trick of dipping the dead ami
mails in boiling water, which enables
chem to pluck easily and quickly. The
preparation for trusting comes later.
There is no lack of variety at a Mala-
gasy table; but, all the same, you miss
the wheaton -four bread, sugar and
condiments, when cloyed with rice,
fowls, manioc and eggs The staple fuel
is bunch grass, which when dried burns
fercely and settles in a glowing ember
that gives off deal of heat. All the
cooking is done on earthen hearths, and
the roasting, boiling and baking III big
iron pots. The grass being slightly aro-
matte, the odor is as agreeable as that

Wonderful Figure.

Some men are hard to please, espe-

moods. The Scottish American has a
story of such man, an Edinburgh
banker.
One day, when nothing had gone to
suit him, he broke out suddenly TO one
of the clerks in tone like a thunder
clap:
''Look here, Jones! This won't do
These figures are a perfect disgrace. An
Office boy could do better. If he couldn't
I'd discharge him. Look at that five,
will you? 1t looks just like three No
body would take it for anything else.

shaped the hair should be arranged to
reveal it entirely; but sometimes it is
as much a composite as the face, the
front or throat revealing softness
and roundness of contour, but the back
being disfigured by deep hollow at
the base of the skull. This character
istic denotes strength of physique, mo-
raj and mental endurance. The deeper
the cleft the greater the degree of eth
er quality.
