HoM MiIk secretedf

The manner in which milk is secreted
in the udder is not yet definitely agreed
upon. There are two theories put forth
in explanation of the process. The first
one known as the 'stransudation theo
ry," assumes simple filtering of the
constituents of the milk from the blood
through the gland and an immediate
conversion of these constituents into
milk. The second theory, known as the
'metamorphic, - assumes that the milk
is formed in the gland by the decompo-
sition of the cells of that organ.
Professor Sheldon thinks that a com
bination of the two will probably give
the most satisfactory explanation, and
this is more apparent when we consider
the sources of the various constituents
of milk. Neither casein nor milk sugar
is found in the blood; consequently
they could not be filtered from it, but
are probably the result of special cell
activity. Fat, though found in the
blood, is not there in sufficient quantity
to supply the fat of the milk. 1.-THE
milk sugar, casein and fats are all
formed by the direct activity of the
epithelial cells as result of the decom-
position of their protoplasmic (first
formed) contents or their action on the
food constituents in the blood. The 9th
er constituents of the milk, the water
and salts, evidently result from direct
process of transudation from the blood,
with the exception that without doubt
certain percentage Of the potassium
salts and phosphates, like the specific
milk constituents. originate in the met

Oil and pepper are the two things
that especially characterize the Castilian
cuisine. One of the favorite dishes in
cuba is tasajo, " which is simply dried
meat, cooked with tomatoes, red pep
pers and onions. "Tripa la Andaluza'
is another preparation frequently seen.
AS the name indicates, the basis is
boiled tripe which is cooked with beans
and potatoes, and always served with
the small red Spanish sausage known
as "Butafarra Catalina. A similar
sausage, only black, is known as 'Buta-
farra Astoriana. :"
''Chile con carne, I" which everybody
eats, is nothing more than a thick stew
of beef (carne) and beans seasoned with
chiles. Spanish "tortillas" are corn
cakes favored with red peppers, and
differ from the Mexican tortilla in that
the latter, when properly made, are
rolled in chopped vegetables. A salad
la Espanola is prepared of lettuce
and celery, with few sliced tomatoes
and peppers. Served with French dress
ing II is very good.
The Spanish soups are as rule lit
tie too heavy for the American taste,
which runs more toward the consomme.
They are thick decoctions, full of vege-
tables, and look frightfully greasy.
Soup, however, does not have the i'm
portant role among the Spaniards that
it plays in French domestic economy,
and is an article of secondary impor-
tance. The dishes named are pretty apt
to appear ere long on home menus, and

Books rather Than Food.

Success gives an interesting anecdote
told by Agassiz of his visit when a
young man to the great German nat
uralist, Professor Lorenz Oxen.
The professor received his guest with
warm enthusiasm, but apparent embar-
rassment. He showed his visitor the
laboratory and the students at work,
also his cabinet, and lastly his splendid
library of books pertaining to geological
science, collection worth some 81, 900,
and well deserving the glow of pride
which the owner manifested as he ex-
plated on its excellence. The dinner
hour came, and then the embarrassment
of the great German reached its maxi :
mum point. "M. Agassiz, he said,
with perturbation, "to gather and keep
up this library exacts the utmost hus-
bandry of my pecuniary means. To ac-
complish this I allow myself no luxury
whatever. Hence my table is restricted
to the plainest fare. Thrice week our
table boasts of meat, the other days we
have only potatoes and salt. | very
much regret that your visit has occu red
upon potato day" And so the splen-
did Switzer and the great German, with
his students, dined together on potatoes
and salt. And what must those students
have enjoyed in the conversation of
those remarkable men!
