a SUBSTITUTE FOR OYSTERS.

Berlin.-The superstition that oysters
are dangerous to eat during the months
that have no in them is as rampant here
as 1t is with us in America. They disap-
pear from the hotels and restaurants with
the coming of the cuckoo. and when he
ceases his mellow fluting oysters come
again. There is no toothsome substitute
for the oyster like our clam, but in its
place the Germans have a very delicate
little beast, indeed--the fresh water lob

drain on the streams and ponds of Germa-
ny to satisfy the demand for krebse, that
the native waters are giving out. The
best crayiish are supposed to pass their
lives in the river Oder, but comparatively
few of those that are eaten in Germany
and France come from the Oder; they hail
from Finland and Russia.

MATRIMONIAL IMPLICITLY.
Many Clerks and Few Lawyers Are
UnhappiIy Married in England.

From the London Telegraph.
Statistics of matrimonial infelicity are
melancholy reading, but, since it is only by
careful study of them that the various
classes of the community can discover the
comparative force of-and so, perhaps,
eventually resist--the impulse which urges
them respectively in the direction of the
divorce court, all married couples ought,
no doubt, to nerve themselves for an eX-
animation of the figures. To clerks and
their consorts in particular is this advice
applicable, for clerks, we are sorry to say,
head the list of suitors in matrimonial
cases, though builders and carpenters,
bracketed equal, run them a pretty good
second. There were thirty-eight of the
former calling in the cause list for 1895,
and thirty each of the two latter. Publi>
cans and merchant seamen and officers
follow next with twenty-one, soldiers and
naval seamen with eighteen, farmers with
sixteen, coachmen, cabmen and carriers
with fifteen, and commercial travellers
with twelve. The professions, it is en-
couraging to notice, come far behind the
trades. There are only ten physicians and
surgeons, only five solicitors, and only two
schoolmasters and two journalists, while
the rear of the list is brought up by SOL
itary barrister. This last item of Informal
ton is, perhaps, not surprising. The bar,
if not actually behind the scenes-as some
of them in each case must be-sit too
near the stage to find the drama of matri-
monial litigation attractive. Perhaps even
this solitary barrister was not a voluntary
litigant. He may have been correspond
ent, and this brings us, by the way to
what is by far the most surprising feature
in the whole of these statistics-so sur
prising. indeed, that we should not wonder
if by one of the two sexes it were pro-
nOunced incredible. We refer to the fact
that the aggrieved party in a matrimonial
suit proves nearly three times out of five
to be the husband. Only go wives found
occasion to petition the court for release
from the connubial bond, whereas the
same application had to be made by as
many 40 253 husbands. What does the
advanced woman who pleads for relief
from the tyranny of the marriage law say
to that? The wives, at least seem very
well able to correct the hardship of their
lot by taking the law into their own
hands.

English Innkeepers Mainly Doors.


Mr.. and Mrs. Pencil in the Fortnightly
Review.
If your pocketbook allows or fate, or
the desire to see the country compels you
to remain in England, there are parts
where you can ride on your wheel with
great satisfaction and at great expense.
Nothing could be more beautiful than the
Midlands, lovelier than the counties that
surround London. But westWard-go no
further than Bristol or Truro, northward
than Chester, avoiding Misunderstanding
is unless you mean to go still further
north into Scotland which, at times, will
repay your enterprise. The southwest is
largely to be avoided-Cornwall and De-
Won have the worst roads in civilized Eu-
rope; in fact, the roads and inns explain
that the country is not and never has been
civilized. In the inns you are often treated
as an intruder, and sometimes cheated in
a fashion that would bring a blush to the
cheek of a Swiss landlord; for the enpti-
ness of the larder the bill makes up in Law
ishness There is hardly anything TO eat
save cream but for that and salt bacon
and ancient eggs you are asked to pay as
much as for a good dinner at theCafe Roy
al. The innkeepers are mainly boors
AS for the roads, they go straight to the
top OF all the hills, as uncompromisingly
as the roads of Bohemia, then drop down
the other side, and are unridable in both
directions. When not climbing precipitate-
ly they lie buried at the bottom of a ditch.
They are shadeless and uninteresting,
rarely approaching the sea coast or pass
ing near anything that is worth looking
at And yet we knew Englshmen who are
profoundly impressed with the belief that
they are the best in England, and there
fore in the world. The roads, inns. and
innkeepers OF Scotland are In every way
better. But the fact that the average Bril-
ton spends his holiday on the continent
when he can, proves, not only that he
wants to get there, but also that he Is
driven from his own country by the short
sightedness of the people who keep its inns
and look after its roads.
