The Dark Is Better Than the White For

ever, more phosphorus-the active fish.
such as trout and pickerel. containing
still greater amount, due no doubt to
their activity. The amount of carbon
depends largely upon the amount OF fat
they contain. The whitefish are, there
fore, deficient in carbon If you should
ask an intelligent cook what vegetable
TO serve with a boiled white fish she
would answer quickly, potatoes, as they
supply the wanting carbohy ydrates.
There are other kinds of fish, how
ever, such as salmon, catfish and stur-
geon, that are quite well supplied with
carbohydrates, in consequence of which
they are not so easily digested as the
white fish. The more oil they have dis
persed through the body, the more diff
cult the digestion. In the white fish the
fat is held in the liver; in the dark fish
it is dispersed through the entire flesh.
From this fact we learn that dark fish
make a much better diet for the active
man. Many authorities affirm that the
more active fish. as well as the more
active animals, give better muscle max
ing food than their more indolent rela-
fions -

Kaiser and Painter.

There was touching exchange of
compliments the other day between EN-
peror William and the Russian painter
Verestchagin, whose works are now ON
exhibition in Berlin The kaiser went
to the gallery and was gracious enough
10 remind the artist that they had met
before. ''Yes. your majesty" replied
Verestchagin. land then you were only
'highness, but now you are majesty. I"
To this the kaiser is said to have replied,
holding ont his nand, "And you, who
were a great painter then. are now a
greater one. F"
1t is not altogether surprising that
the Russian is reported as expressing
deep respect for the emperor's critical
powers, or that he quotes, as showing
limitless historical knowledge, the en-
peror's declaration, made at this mo-
mentous interview, that IF ever judg-
ment of God broke over a man. it was
over Napoleon at Moscow. Meanwhile
Verestchagin's S pictures will continue to
reveal the horrors of militarism, and
thus supply one with the pleasant men-
;al recreation of wondering what Eu-
ropes one real war lord can see TO ad-
mire III them.-New York Times

Remarkable Juggling Feat.

There is always an abundant supply
of stories of the expertness of Hindoo
jugglers and acrobats. One who moves
about perched upon a single long stick
is the latest novelty. This performer is
mounted ON a bamboo pole about 10
feet high, the top Of which is tied TO a
girdle wcrn around his waist. 4 small
cushion is fastened few feet down the
pole, which acts as leg rest The aero
bat hops around a large space in the
liveliest way, uttering cheerful shouts
and accompanied by the tapping of a
curious drum. He also executes a sort
of dance and goes through little PAN
tomime. 1t is a marvellous feat of
equilibrium. Towalk on pair Of stills
as high as this would be performance
worthy of exhibition on our variety
stage But TO hop around On one is quite
another thing.
The same man can do many other
wonderful things. He appears absolute
" perfect in the art of balancing. He
can balance a very light stick ON his
nose and heavy one ON his chin and
then throw the heavy one into the air
with his head and catch it on the end
of the light. When balancing these two
sticks, end ON end. he will make one
revolve in one direction and the other
in the other. He puts one hand ON
fiat, circular stone, throws his feet up
into the air and balances a stick on
each of Them At fhe same time he re-
wolves rapidly on the pivot formed by
his arm and the stone.-Boston TraE-

The possibilities for the attainment
Of a very real and solid artistic success
in the direction of the ballet are not
sufficiently noted in this country. While
the ballet is not considered such an in
dispensable entree here as abroad, yet
our national fondness for comic opera
with spectacular choruses offers de-
mand that has but seldom been supplied
with adequate skill An occasional pro-
duction has, it is true, exploited a bit
If good taste; but, as a rule, American
ballets, while expensive enough, are
rather gaudy than gorgeous, lacking IN
unity OF idea and maneuvered without
much eye to effect.
The qualities that make genuine ar
tistic success possible in the ballet make
gross error more than probable. Success
here demands ability both in the large
and in the small. Working closely with
his lieutenants, the designer Of costumes
and the dancing master, the director of
the ballet must give each coryphee or
each small group an individuality, and
this must merge smoothly into the
whole The manipulation of horde of
dancers in whom unusual intelligence
is rare and might be dangerous requires
a skill in the movement of large num-
bers, a quick eye for effective evolu-
tions, exact tactics that will bring the
right body TO the right place in the
right way, and a presence of mind in
emergencies that demands of the ballet
director a generalship of limited range
indeed, but of much acuteness and much
responsibility.

Certain American Editions.

The American editions of many Eng
lish authors Were of prime importance
in the careers of the writers, and to ig-
more them is TO ignore most potent fac
tors in their lives The publication Of
the "Yellowplush Correspondents" in
Philadelphia was followed by the
Comic Tales and Sketches" and the
success Of the American book was the
influence that induced the London pub
Usher to assume the risk In the same
wy the miscellanies collected from
original sources and published in e vol
umes by the Appletons in New York in
1882 and 1858 induced the publication
Of the misceilanies in London in 1855 to
1857. Thackeray carried home set of
these Appleton volumes to aid him in
selecting the papers for the London is
sue, and yet, would the photographer
tell Us that the London edition of 1867
was the first, aqd that the New York
edition exists not at all:-Book Buyer.

School For Lovemaking-

speaking of colleges, how | wish
some one would found a college for
training in the art of lovemaking, -
said Miss Lillian Bell, the writer, in
the course of a recent talk. 81 suggest
ed once of kindergarten for the train
ing of husbands. Now | want to
change that and have a college for low
ers, with a post graduate course for
husbands. As it is nOw-well, almost
any girl can do almost anything with
a man. You know how easily one
girl can rob another girl of her lover
He, poor, blind being never suspects 1t.
"a girl would know in a minute If
another man was trying to win her
from her lover. She has intuitions
like atenne which tell her the very
nature of every approach. But with a
man il is different. He sees only "a
sympathetic soul in the girl who leads
him away by all the deliberate arts of
which she is mistress.
"But there, one can 60 on all day
talking about these things. Every
body likes to talk about love. People
ask me if I am not 'uplifted' by the
success l have had, but L tell them
that it was not any great inspiration
on my part. When | began to talk of
love, | had the ear of the world.
''I do not write ont of ply mind
simply. / have been the repository for
other peoples love stories ever since L
can remember. | have almost never
been seated at dinner with man who
did not tell me before he left the table
all about his first love affair / gener-
ally bear a striking resemblance to his
earliest sweetheart. 1t is matter of
tradition, this fondness people have for
cOnfining their love affairs TO me.

A. w. GLEASON,
The Vegetable Season.
From the Boston Globe.

From the Boston Globe
There is free show now going on of
unsurpassed beauty and interest that
would probably be more patronized but
for its eheapness. The show referred
to is that of the fresh green vegetables
that are now filling up the markets
and changing in richness and variety
as the season advances.
The finest vegetables in the world are
grown in the United States, and yet it
is said by foreign observers that the
worst cooked vegetables in the world
are also found here. All the year
round the markets of our great cities
are now kept bright and fresh-looking
from the gardens ofthe south. Florida,
Georgia and the Carolinas supply
spring vegetables in early winter, and
the harvest gradually moves north.
Vegetables are growing in popularity
as staple diet, and are cultivated i'm far
greater quantities aud varieties than
ever before, while The broadening area
Of cultivation operates to make them
constantly cheaper. II we paid much
attention to improving the cooking of
vegetable as we do in the cooking of
meats, il would be well. Perhaps there
is some truth in what foreigners say
that Americans are apt to spoil vege-
tables by keeping them too long in
water stepped in their own poisons.

Why The Beer Tax is S144.

There is much curiosity As TO why the
tax on beer was made $l44 a barrel.
instead of 81 As or Sl.50, says the Chi
cago Record. The rate adopted sounds
a good deal as If the senate committee
was initiating the bargain counters in
the department stores, but thera is a
deep aud important significance to the
figures They were adopted for the
sake of convenience in mathematical
calculations. One hundred and FORTY
four is the multiple of 3, 3, 4, G, S, and
II, which are the divisions used by the
brewers in the sale of beer In estimat-
ing and computing the taxes upon
fractional parts of a barrel 81. "A is much
more convenient than 81 so or sI.4O or
sL45. Thus the tax on one half bar
rel OF beer will be - cents, the tax on a
quarter ofa barrel, 3s cents: on q third
of barrel, As cents; on sixth. of a bar
rel, "A cents; on an eighth of a barrel.
Is cents Even cent?, and no fractions
enter into the calculation.

PROOF OF SINCERITY.
How An Army osieer Stood the suprems
Tcxt Of Belief In Fatziism.

How An Army Osficer Stood the supreme
Test Of Belief In Fstsiism.
In the days Of the ''old army" on the
frontier, when military posts} were
sometimes hundreds Of miles from any
civilized place, there was little to do in
the way of amusement IN the winter
time when the post was snowbound,
and il was then that the reputation the
army has for card playing ard drinking
was gained And il is tTEe that a great
deal of both was done at that time
1t was in these days that an event
transpired that showed that the prin-
cipal actor had the courage of his con-
victions, and that he was most certainly
born under lucky star II was after a
very wet" stag dinner party, and al
had partaken most freely of the wine,
and, strange as il may seem, the subject
that came up for discussion was the
Mohammedan religion. Tic Mussul-
mans believe in fate. To them mans
fate is written above, and the time Of
his death is set, and nothing can adj
vance it. Well, this belief had been dis
cussed long and earnestly. The pros and
cons had been gone over at length, till
one officer wanted TO know of what use
was reason if every one was born with
a tag of destiny attached One officer
finally arose and said there was no use
Of discussing the matter any further.
The only way was 10 make a practical
test of the question, and he would
give himself as a subject. Could man
willfully dispose of his life when the
fatal moment had been chosen at his
birth from above?
He could get no one to try the expert
ment on him Finally a wager was
made.
'Who win pay you if ! loser" said
the subject as he drew his pistol and
showed that it was loaded. He placed
the pistol against his temple and pulled
the trigger. The pistol missed fire.
"a joke, /" yelled the crowd.
The fatalist smiled, and, recocking
the pistol, aimed it with steady hand
at the clock ON the wall He fired, and
the bullet crashed through the center Of
the dial
Apologize TO me now," he said. II

Teeth That Take Root.

A Russia dentist has at length solv-
ed the problem of supplying us with
false teeth, which viii grow into The
gums as firmly rs natural ones, says
the Figaro. The teeth are made of
guita percha, porcelain or metal, as
the case may be. At the root of the
tooth holes are made, and also in the
jaw. The tooth is then placed in the
cavity. and in short time soft gran
ula,ed growth finds its way from the
jaw into the holes in the tooth. This
growth gradually hardens, and holds
the tooth in position. IT does not
matter in the least, according to this
enterprising Russian dentist, whether
the cavity in which the tooth is placed
is one from which the natural tooth
has recently been drawn, or whether il
has been healed for months or even
years.
