DIDN'T LIKE SOUP.

Once. as a lieutenant-colonel, indig-
nant at the wholesale waste of excel
lent soup bones, 1 ordered the master
cook to insure. under pain of my dis
pleasure, that large caldrons filed with
the otherwise unutilized materials
should be kept simmering for my in
spection three times a week. To this
he was to add peameal, seasoning, etc,
at the cost of a few pence. not charged
to the men; and as a guarantee of
obedience he was habitually to send
in to my orderly room. just before the
mems dinners, a specimen of his brew.
Respectful remonstrances from cooks
and sergeants, to which l blandly re-
piled: yes, I understand your OBJ
jections; but the soup shall be made -
I found it-oh, so good-on a cold day
nearly equivalent to a hot meal.
After weeks trial spokesman
from the messes addressed me further
and urgent complaints, always with
the utmost respect. I'VE don't like
this here soup, sir; nasty, thick, greasy,
poor stuff. with nothing to feel be-
tween the teeth; we do not like to see
