From the New Orleans Times-D Democrat.
mo, l haven't been sick" said one Of
the younger Cotton Exchange men in re-
Spouse to the query of a group of friends
Il have been engaged in set-to with
chatting dish. and am yearning to inter-
view the miscreant who invented the
blasted thing. ! want to dip my paws in
his gore What was the trouble? On
nothing much. l heard it was fashion
able to be chatting dish expert, and
bought one on the solemn assurance of
the clerk that the thing was as easy as
lying. Now, 1 never found any special
difficulty in-but let that pass. What |
tried first was a Welsh rabbit All chat
ing dish fiends make Welsh rabbits, so L
concluded it must be simple. 1 got direc-
tons from a chef on Royal street, and
invited up few friends 10 watch me and
get enVious. Well 1 couldn't remember
exactly whether you put in the eggs first
or the ale first and I guess must have
got them switched somehow. Anyway, the
rabbit looked exactly like a mustard plas-
ter-after using. My friends told me they
liked me personally and were willing to
strain a point for courtesy's sake, but
that they had families to provide for and
would have to draw the line on rabbits.
1 threw the cussed thing out of the win
dow and nearly Drained a Niger. The
next dish attempted was Josephine ON
elette?. Ever hear of a Josephine ONE
lette? Between ourselves, l believe It
must have been the cause of Napoleon get
ting that divorce from his wife. A young
lady on st. Charles avenue gave me the
recipe, and / have been wondering ever
since what the mischief l ever did to Of
fend her. 1 asked an old and very dear
chum of mine to come up and help me de-
YOUR the dainty, and when l went to work
l was particular to follow directions 10
a gnafs heel, The omelette resembled a
chunk of beeswax, and eating a small
piece my guest pried open his mouth and
said he had just remembered an import
ant engagement. 1 had sampled a section
myself, so 1 made no reply. 1 just bow
ed him out and put in the balance of the
evening trying to get the Josephine ONE
lette OUT of my teeth. Yesterday l gave
the chahng dish and the recipe to a fell
low 1 don't like, and he went right off
in high glee to experiment l haven't
seen him since, but somebody told he was
in a hardware store this morning buying
a gun and that he asked particular for
something that would mutilate and man.

THE BLACK FOREST.
The Cattle and People Live in the
Same Houses.
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun.
The Black forester is, without exception,
the most conservative being in the world
He lives exactly the life that his fore
fathers have done for hundreds of years,
and cannot be persuaded to change it.
With running streams on every hand he
might, for instance have the electric light,
as the Swiss peasant has. But he will have
none of it. He prefers the candle dips
of his ancestors. Even when he acquires
little money he prefers to go on leading
his laborious life
From one end of the forest to the other
you win !ook in vain for beggar. The near
est approach 10 one is an occasional blind
man, and he repays the aims he receives
by playing an accordion-like instrument
of local manufacture. one never sees the
peasants dance, however. They are too Sc
Tious minded for that. Perhaps, also, too
hard-worked; in fact their work, espe-
ciaIiy that of the women, is never ending
Yet The Black foresters have an ear for
music and one of the industries which
they have brought to perfection, together
with wooden c,ockmaking, is the manufac-
cure of those enormous musical boxes cali
ed orchestr0ns, which are a whole or
chestra iu themselves.
Except in the villages and small towns
every family has It's own dwelling house
and laud partly arabic and parity forest.
The houses are the quaintest structures
imaginable, They are an built on the same
plan, even the newest. on the ground floor
are the cattle. horses and pigs;on the sec
ond floor are the living rooms, mere boxes
with the smallest and rudest windows
above is stored the hay and other agricul-
tural produce, the whole surmounted by
an enormous sloping roof of slate or
thatch, which comes down to within few
feet of the ground, covering in a sort of
rude veranda which runs round the priml-
tive structure.
The absence of coQuetry on the part of
the women of the Black forest is very
marked, but stiH more so their want of
taste. on market days at Furtwangen.
Trlberg and other centers the strangest of
headgear is to be seen. A high-pointed hat,
like that which used 10 be worn in Wales.
is the most becoming Occasionally this.
in straw, assumes the shape of the male
top hat Of civilization and is then painted
dark yellow or a bright red a little
higher in the sca,e of eccentrcity is a hat
Of the leghorn shape, surmounted by three
enormous balts like those of a pawnbrok-
er. How the women manage 10 wear this
without having violent headache is a
wonder, for they weigh several pounds.
