make the fullest use of his service in
view of the ridiculous gossip that the

port anything but a straight demo-

strongest that party convention

RARE OLD DISHES.
Fried GrasshopIers and Scorpions DeIfca-
cies of the Arabs Long Ago


oies Of the Arabs Long Ago
An erudite Egyptian writes in The
Revue des Revues of the diet of the an
cient Arabs Dog meat. it appears, was
one OF their favOrite dishes, and young
dogs were rs precious i'll old times among
the Arabs as spring chickens are among
the people of today. They Were also
fond of cat meat. The flesh of black
cat had the virtues of curing them of
the effects Of hoodoo and the evil eye.
Fried grasshoppers and scorpions also
formed veryschoice dish. The natural
list, Al Djahey. who lived in the tenth
century, speaks of his visit to the Ara
bian tribes of Bassorah and Of his sur
prise on discovering that they did not
eat grasshoppers. Nevertheless, says
he, There is nothing more delicious. !"
He also says that when he went to sea
his friend, the poet Roobah, he found
him seated on the ground enjoying a re-
past of roast rat. Afterward he had
fried lizards
Notwithstanding the almost religious
worship which the Arabs profess for the
horse, they ate horseflesh, but only the
flesh OF draft horses, never that of sad
die horses. They ate all sorts OF mol
lusks and insects. The Arabs were also
very fond of black snakes, and they
hunted them at the time when the rep
tiles were about to change their skins,
the flesh IL that season being extremely
tender.
