Effect of Diet Upon History.

An eminent German scientist, refer ring to human history, asserts that we may trace the cause of many evils in the dietetic character of the people. The rejection of flesh would give new direction to human culture and indus try Agriculture would be greatly de- veloped. The numerous diseases now traceable to flesh diet would disap- pear, and with them the manifold cruel ties of the slaughter house. The expense of living would be greatly reduced, and thus the poorer classes would be ele- vated.

Elephant Flesh an African Delicacy.


 The flesh of the elephant is eaten in it's entirety by several of the African tribes. A detail of the process of butch ering the animals is not pleasant read ing. The tools used are the assagai and hatchet. The rough outer skin is first removed in large sheets. Beneath this is a subcuticle, pliable membrane, from which the natives make water skins. The elephant yields large quan titles of fat, used in cooking the na- tives' sun dried biltong, or dried strips of the elephants flesh, and also in the preparation of vegetables. African ex- plorers of the Caucasian race agree that one part of the elephants carcass, when properly cooked, is a succulent dish that will regale the most delicate taste. This part, very strangely, is the first joint of the leg below the knee, which one would suppose to be the toughest portion of the animal To prepare the joint hole three feet deep is dug in the earth, and the sides of it are baked hard by means of large live coals. Most of the coals are then taken out, and the elephants foot is placed in the rude oven. The hole is then filled with dirt, tightly packed, and a blazing fire is built on top, which is kept replenished for three hours. The foot is thus evenly baked, and when done, instead of strong, tough meat fiber, it is of a ge- latinous consistency that may be eaten with a spoon.- Lancet
