cELEsTIALs EAT BURDocK.
Many of the Chinese and Japanese
Cultivate the Plant for Home
Consumption.

What is even regarded as a vile weed
can, with little stretch of imagina-
tion be turned into an ornamental
plant or delicious vegetable, says Nee
hams Monthly. This is especially the
case with the common burdock, lappa
major. Schoolboys all know IL from
gathering the burrs and COMPRISING
them into a ball, they being held to-
gether by the curved points of the
floral involncre. This is all they know
about it. 1t is difficult to see anything
more to be despised in the hurdocC
leaf than in the leaf of the rhubarb. 1t
appears that it is largely used in China
for food. But IL is stated that, if the
stalks be cut down before the flowers
expand and then be boiled, the taste Is
relished equally with asparagus. The
leaves, when young, are boiled and
eaten as we eat spinach. In japan il
is in universal use. Thousands of acres
are devoted to its culture. But in this
case the root is the object. 1t requires
deep soil to get the roots to the best
advantage. The common name in
China is gobbo-a name, however,
which need not replace our common
one of burdoclS.

A QUEER HABIT.
II Is Contracted by Cleveland Man
While Trying to Learn

A Cleveland man has set about learn

the Plain Dealer. Up to the present
time he has had somebody TO do his
typewriting for him. but now he wants
10 know how to run it all by himself.
lie admits that he isn't an apt scholar.
IL comes slowly. The letters are hard
20 find, and the spacing is so easily
forgotten. But there is one thing that
amuses him. He is learning to spell,
and learning in the same way he did
when a tow-headed boy in the early
COS. OF course he could spell when he
tackled the typewriter, but not in the
Fame way. Now he distinctly emu
merates each letter. and does it, too,
with the greatest care. 1t is a funny
thing, but he finds himself spelling
out the words in the newspaper, and
his wife says he spells them in his
sleep.
The other day the minister met him
end asked him how he was.
VERY WE'LL" he grarely spelled
out, and when the pastor looked
amazed he realized what he had done
and hastily explained the cause Of the
peculiarity. And the minister pro-
fessed to be greatly interested and
wanted TO know all about IL, and the
speller is now greatly worried for fear
the parson will write special paper
on 1t for some magazine.
When the minister finally left him
he shook hands and said: "Good-by.'
"G-o-o-d,' began the speller, and
then recollected himself and hastily
added "by"
He hopes in time TO wear out this
popularity, and when he Increases hi!

CAN'T BE EXPLAINED.
A Naval Commander Says There Is
No Telling Why Sailors VIII De-
sert in Time of Peace.

"I never knew a sailor worth keep
ing" declared an old naval com
mander, "that would desert in time Of
war. But in times Of peace, when
everything appears to be going along
as though IT were CREASED, desertions
will begin from no apparent cause and
will suddenly become epidemic. Away
they'll go, and it's two to one that in
a little while they will be hunting
around to see if they can't get back
into the service without having to suf-
fer punishment. I used to put in a
good deal of time trying to find an ex-
PLANTATION Of tlse thing, and finally pre-
sented it TO one Of my superior Off
GERS.
"'Drop it, young man. was his la
comic advice. You can't tell why they
do it and you can't stop them. If you
must worry, let It be about something
where you may hive a chance to ac-
complish good. I'll tell you right now
If you were to sail a ship for Heaven
and were obliged to touch at hell fol

AMUSEMgSTS
GREAT FAvoRITE HERE.

That Corse Payton and his company
are prime favorites here no one can
deny. In view of the intense heat Of
the past two weeks, their engagement
has been a marvellous success, the
weather not seemingly interfering with
the large attendance nor the conscien-
tious work of the players. Last night
was Dewey night" when a pretty SOU
venir spoon was given to every women
attending. The bowl was of gold, with
cut OF the flagship Olympia, and on
the silver handle was engraved the
head of Admiral Dewey. The play,
Filtration" was presented in fine
style, and the specialties went with a
snap. Mr.. Payton last night played the
role Of Dick Rothley, journalist, and
did It well. without doubt ne is one of
the most versatile actors who come to
this city. AS a comedian he Is original
and genuinely funny. He IS a clever
dancer, and has an excellent voice
which is heard to advantage in the
newest songs. Miss Eta Reed, as
Laura Hayden, was graceful and digni-
fed as usual. and interpreted her par
with the intelligence of the finished ac'
tress she is. Miss Blanche Hall made
her debut with the Payton company
here last week. and speedily establish
ed herself a favorite. She is petite an'
pretty, and plays her parts in a thor
loughly satisfactory manner. Miss Lou
ise Mitchell had very little to do las
night, but did that well. and in NOR
important roles has proved her ability
Miss Elsie Gerome. as the mischief
maker, acted that part very cleverly

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
WANT TO BE MUSTERED OUT.

WANT IL BIZ MU0l ERED Jul.
To the Editor Of the Evening Journal.
Sir: 1t is well known among the
officers OF the First Delaware Regiment
that fully 95 per cent Of the pen de-
sire TO be mustered out, instead of 50
per cent. wishing to stay, as was stated
in your paper about one week ago.
They are doing all in their power to
have US remain in service, the chief
reason being that they are earning
more money now than they ever earned
before.
We enlisted for two years and, II
necessary, would have laid down our
lives for our country's sake, but now
as the war is over, it is no more than
fair that we be mustered out.
For the pact two weeks our regiment
has been in a state Of starvation, as il
is a hard matter even to get bread foI
the men. Some companies have had
none for three or four days. Despond.
ency is written on every mans face
and to send this regiment to do garri
son duty means that not one-fftl
would ever return. Weakened b!
work, lack Of proper food, and sick
ness, and respondent, they would dl'
like sheep. We want our friends anC
the public in general to know thl
truth.
Member Of First Delaware Voluntee
Regiment.
