POI for American Tables.

The first shipment to the United
States OF "poi" has just been placed
on sale in Chicago. Poi, the national
food of the Hawaiian Islands, is made
from the dried root of the taro plant.
The taro plant on the top much re.
sembles the American pie plant, the
large leaves being very similar. From
the centre grows q single stalk, which
produces red flower. This flower lie
a sign that the root is ready to be
harvested. The root is dried and then
ground into flower. For use, the Aou,
is simply boiled with water until the
mixture is of the consistency OF mush.
The dish seems likely to become pop.
uIar, though the Hawaiian method
Of eating it never will. The
Hawaiians partake of poi by
inserting the first three fingers
of the right hand into the kettle, then
dexterously transferring the fingers
and as much of the mixture as cllngs
to them to tbs mouth. ILLUSTRATED

Eull Beats Lion

"Ihc lion has been called the kinc

right. Il was travelling in Mexico a
few years ago and at Monterey a little
0ne-riny circus with mcnagcrie at
tachment was exhibiting. In the
outfit was large ard fcrocious-]ook-
ing lion, which was proclaimed as the
terror Of the animal creation. A
Mexican catt|cman was an interested
spectator, and while the tent was full
he mounted seat and offered to bet
the proprietor of the show $1,000
that he had bull that could whip
the lion in ten minutes. The wager
was accepted and the next day set for
the battle in the local bull pen. The
lion was turned loose in the Enclosure
and young lamb thrown to him.
He killed and ate it, and the taste Of
blood seemed to make him frantic.
Then black, wiry, Spanish bull was
turned in. Without a moments hes
itation the lion sprang at him, but
taurus caught him on his nccdlc-like
horns and threw him thirty feet. The
lion did not appear anxious to renew
hostillties, but the bull was in for a
fight to a finish. He rushed at his
enemy and gave him another savage
toss. The lion retired to the farthest
corner of the inclasure and tried to
scramble out, but was dubbed back.
The bull made another rush, and this
time he drove a horn into his antago.
mist and nearly discmboweled him.
Every bit Of fight in the lion was
gone. The bull stood in the center
of the Enclosure, paving and below

kingdom was dragged out and an at

Berries That Make Cheese.

DR.. @. A. White of tho Smithsonian
Institution, Washington, d. O., has
kindly sent us this communication:
"The subject OF cooking is, with me,
mainly a fad of my old age, taken up
IN connection with my daughters in.
terest in the subject. Still, I have
for many years taken much interest in
the rational preparation of food, and
IN the extension of knowledge of our
resources in that direction. l there.

which made during one of my many
journeys in the great interior region
Of our country, and which think will
interest you for its bearing on the
food Question.

crossed over into Northern Mexico,
and was for several days the guest OF
m intelligent Mexican family. One
eveningthey had for supper not IN.
palatable dish, to which they gave the
Spanish name for cheese, but which
was really a cooked curd, made fresh
that day. The Sonora told me it was
a common dish in Mexico during the
maturity of certain berries, the juice
OF which was used to coagulato the
milk. After supper she sent one of
her boys with me to show me the
plant, and I identified it as O solanum,
apparently s. Carolinense. OF course
all fruit acids will curdle milk, but
this fruit contains practically no acid,
its taste being about the same as that
of the fruit OF the common potato, q
closely related species Of solanum.
IL therefore infer that tho complete
coagulation of the milk in the case re-.
ferred to was effected by substance
contained in the fruit which acts as
rennet does, which action Liebi8 and
other chemists regard as that OF kind
of fermeut. In eating the curd could
detect no taste of the berries nor OF
any kind of acid. It had much the
taste OF the fresh curds with which
was familiar in my boyhood days on
New England farm.
II have never had an opportunity |
to verify the Senora's statement to
me, by personal experiment, but it
would be easy'to do so in regions
whore that species of solanum grows,
and 1t may be that the berries of the
potato and of other species
Of solanum possess the same property.
At any rate, it is we'll worth while to
inquire if there are not vegetable sub.
stances that will be an efficient sub.
