You all know the rhyme, but have
you ever heard what 1t really means?
The four-andtwenty blackbirds
represented the twenty-four hours. The
bottom of the pie is the world, while
the top crust is the sky that over
arches it. The opening Of the pie is the
day dawn, when the birds begin to
sing, and surely such a sight is fit for
q King.
The King, who is represented as sit
ting in his parlor counting out his
money, is the sun, while the gold pieces
that slip through his fingers, as he
counts them, are the golden sunbeams.
The Queen, who sits In the dark
kitchen, is the moon, and the honey
with which she regales herself Ia the
moonlight.
The Industrious maid, who is in the
garden at work before the King-the
sun has risen, is day-dawn, and the
clothes 81 hangs out are the clouds.
The Bird who, so tragically, end the
song by 'nipping of her nose" is the
sunset. So we have the whole day, II
not in nutshell, in pie.

The Hoecake IL Fast disappearing
From Southern Tables,

The Hoecake II Fast disappearing
From Southern Tables.
Most middle-aged persons remember
well when corn bread was served upon
nearly all tables in the south and west
at least twice a day. Sometimes it ap-
peared In the form of "hoecake" or
batter bread" and again in "pones."
1t was par excellence the bread Of the
negro, and every man who served in
the Confederate army was also full
graduate In the use Of 1t. Now the
darkies eschew 1t where wheat bread is
to be obtained, and upon the tables Of
thousands Of southern and western
whites 1t never appears at all, while
others continue to use it only for din
ner.
Now, why is this? Surely corn meal
is as it ever was. Those who sincerely,
but probably mistakenly, believe that
underground" meal is better than the
product Of mills turned by steam can
always find a supply of that in most
cities, and 1t Is common enough in the
country. There is no trouble about the
meal; but we doubt whether the art OF
cooking it has been preserved. The
heightened colored damsels who are
turned out by our public schools are
not the adopts that our old Aunt Di-
nahs and Aunt Peggys were. No self
respecting pan of dough would be con-
jured into shape by such unskilled
hands. And then We may seriously
doubt whether corn bread can be cook
ed in stove as well as in an open fire.
place.
The Indians laid their doughcakes
between layers of forest leaves or upon
the hard ground, and cooked them in
the hot ashes. Hence lash cake a very
luscious product, indeed, when one has
whetted his appetite for 1t by a long
days hunting. The hoecake was so
called because it was originally baked
upon hoe-that ever-ready and useful
instrument of agriculture which is to
be found upon every plantation. But
later on cooking utensils were manu-
featured which took the place OF the
humble hoe. So, too, shingles were
used whereupon to place the dough
while it went through the process Of
becoming a well-done ash cake,

Trai stopped by Insects.

A peculiar incident occurred short
time ago to Scotch express, which
really caps the story Of the mouse
which got into the brake apparatus Of
train and soon brought 1t to a COM
plete standstill.
While on steep incline mile or 30
from lnvershin, the train suddenly
slowed up and eventually stopped. AZ
ter an examination It transpired that
myriads Of midges had been swarming
near the ground, and being crushed by
the wheels Of the train, had left the
rails in very Shiny condition, pre-
venting the engine from gripping the
rails. and so stopping it. Although
several lodges were tried, among them
that of throwing earth along the line,
the train was unable to proceed until
it was divided into sections and drawn
up the incline p!ecemeal. This incl
dent caused delay of nearly an hour.

Sherman's Ample supply of Whisky

snermnhs Ample supply OF whisky.
George A.Sheridan, after one of his
campaigning tour9 in Ohio, told a story
Of his experience with John Sherman.
I'VE had been making speeches at
Xenia one wet, cold night" said Sheri-
dan, land on our way back to the hotel
Senator Sherman said: Sheridan, be-
lieve little whiskey Is a necessity for
us to prevent contracting colds 1t Is
almost needless to say that l agreed
with him and expressed my regret that
] had none with me. Don't worry about
that said the senator, I have an am
pie supply. We will go to my room
and get it, We went to Senator Sher-
mans room and he produced from his
Valise fOur-ounce vial Of whiskey and
teaspoon. Pouring out teaspoonful
he handed 1t over to me to take 1t, as
he had no doubt needed 1t. After l
had INDUCED in one spoonful Sherman
took a spoonful himself, recorked the
little bottle and returned it to his
valise. Surely, there Is one man who
considers whiskey a medicine and not
q beverage"

Brigandage still fsourishes in Italy.
AS Signor Romanin- Iacur, we'll
known Deputy, and dozen other men
were going toward Grossetto the other
day for the purpose of inspecting a
newly constructed aqueduct they sud-
denly met a man, dressed like hunts
man, who levelled his rifle at them
and ordered them to halt. They obeyed,
whereupon the brigand commanded
them to empty their pockets. Strange
to say not one of them made the least
resistance, and as a result the brigand
obtained few thousand francs, Dep

tribution being five bank notes Of 1901.
each. Having secured this booty the
fearless robber disappeared, and no
trace of him has since been found. On
the following day wealthy landed
proprietor was stabbed and robbed by
brigand within few y lies of Rome,
but fortunately the lolice were near at
hand, and they arrevted the miscreant
before he could escape. AS his victim
is said to be mortally wounded, the
chances are that the criminals career
is practically ended
New Words for Our Vocabulary.
One minor result of the Cuban in
surrection and our war with Spain ia
the accretion Of several new words to
our vocabulary. ''Incommunicado" is
already acclimated and is frequently
used in the newspapers in accounts of
arrests for crime. "Reconcentrado" is
term of more special meaning that
can scarcely be introduced into our
daily speech in an extended signif-
canoe. 1t has almost the infexibility
of proper noun substantive Dupuy
de Lome's use OF the term "politicas-
tro' in his notorious letter has recalled
the fact that in the English language
there Is already similar word, "politi-
caster" which Milton found service
able to describe petty politician, just
as we use "poetaster" to describe an
inferior versifier. Doubtless when our
army comes back from Cuba they will
bring with them many words which
will gradually be adopted into our
vocabulary.
