Representative John Allen, who has
had much experience with army
rations and the want of them" made
an observation during his speech on
cheese the other day before the House
that should not be allowed burial in the
Congressional Record without som no.
tice from the world at large. After dis
playing before his colleagues on the
floor the various componauts of the
army ration Representative Allen pro-
ceeded to say that when he was a.
soldier that ration cooked as we knew
how to cook would have furnished a
feast more tempting than any that
could be set before me now at Delmon-
ico."
With a warning that good soldiers
should not be coddled too much. Rep
r~esentative Allen said that he "had not
been real hungry since the war without
craving bareback and bacon. A man
with a good appetite who is really
hungry" added Mr.. Allen, "who can
get some bareback or bakers bread
and q piece Of bacon, put a stick
through 1t, hold it over q fire and broil
1t. n drip the grease on his bread and
eat it has what is to me a very good re-
past It he can get enough of it. When
! get hungry. as I have many a time,
l think much more about broiled or
fried bacon and bread than I do about
terrapin and champagne or lobster a la
Newberg or punch a la Romani."
Laughter n great applause.)

deal of rough engineering skill, this
bridge having been erected without
the help of any of the foreign devils"
Eight cables of bamboo strips woven
together, and the thickness OF an mans
leg are loosely thrown across the river.
The cables are doubled at both ends
and hitched through wooded posts of
a heavy weight, hat are liked in mas
onry, but in such a maner that they can
be turned around like a windlass, en-
abling the natives to tighten the cables.
Fixed under the cables, at intervals of
four and a half feet, are cross girders
made of thin strips of bamboo, which
are brought up on both sides and made
fast to q great bamboo cable, about five
feet above the bridge, which thus acts
as q railing or banister.

long ago he was feeling like a last
years almanac so he said, and as he
got no better he concluded he would
go and consult a physician.
"The doctor put him through the
usual tests and then tool a general
urvey of him at a distance of about
ten PAGES.
"'Um-er,' he said carefully, did you
say o slept well?'
Fairly, DOCTOR
"'Um-er-take any exercise?'
"'Some, doctor, but not much
"'Um-er, do you experience a sense
of fulness after meals?'
"The patient became suddenly vigor-
GUS.
"'Of course, I don't, DOCTOR he said,
with energetic confidence; I live in a
