GOOD THINGS TO EAT.

Glimpses of Gastronomy in Fiction.
II is curious that so far the CASTRO
Monty of the novelists has attracted lit
tle or no attention from literary critics
and philosophers, and the more so that
as insignificant as this featurt may
seem to the careless, there is none which
ideas and temperament of the indiV1d-
nal TO whom we owe in each instance
the literary banquet Women noVelists,
with one or two exceptions, notably
Ouida, rarely allow their heroes and
heroines to partake of a generous feast;
whereas in the pages of the great male
novelists dinners abound, and reflect the
same artistic tendencies as are dlscoV-
cradle in the courage of the hero, the
purity of the heroine and the general
trend of the writer's philosophy of life.
Compare Dickens with ThaCkery. Note
how the attitude towards life of each re-
yeals itself in their gastrononic descrip-
lions. Thackeray is just as fond of
Dickens of telling you what his char
acters eat and drink upon all occasions,
which details he very justly under
stands are by no means unimportant
accessories to their portraits; and
whether it is Major Pendennis' elegant
little dinners or the Mugfords plebeian
but magnificent feasts, or Becky's sal
mi, prepared for the fascination of Mr..
Pitt by her own hands, according to the
veracious lady, or Talbot Twysden' s
shabby cheap pretentious affairs with
his wretched Chateau Margaux, there is
always the same attitude, slightly Gym
ical vet epicurean-the attitude of the
man of the world with fastidious pal
ate. who knows how to appreciate deli
cate and rare viands and wine, and has
vet some kind Of restraint which pre-
vents his enjoying them in an open,
hearty manner. How different from
Dickens very real hearty and somewhat
coarse relish of the food his personages
eat, and invariably enjoy! Not sauce
pan or an oven is safe from him, and he
is never in more hilarious spirits than
when the fare is of the humblest kind.

NOT A LEAP YEAR.
Why 1900 Gives the Girls No Extra
Chances.

Why 1900 Gives the Girls No Extra
Chances.
The New York Sun explains as fol-
lows why next year 1900, will not be
leap year.
The year 1896 was leap year, ana the
next one will be in 1904 eight years
later. This is on account of the ingen-
ious device for maintaining, as nearly
as can be- concordance between the civil
or Gregoriaf calendar and the solar or
astronomical calendar. Everybody
knows that the time required for the
earth to make a revolution around the
sun is the true solar year. 1t is easy
to see why men, in their ordinary az
fairs. do not give the year its exact solar
time value, but employ the civil calen-
dar they have devised instead of the
solar calendar. The length of the
solar year expressed precisely, is
365. 242216 days, or little less than 1854
DAYS. 1t is obvious that in the business
affairs of life it would be very incon-
venient to use a time division called
year containing so many days and a
fraction of day. For ordinary pur-
poses the year must be counted as so
many days. The ordinary year Is,
therefore, counted as 1865 days, which is
nearly fourth of a day shorter than
the true year.
OF course, this time difference be-
tween the solar and the civil year must
be accounted for, sooner or later, and
when it is convenient so to do, the true
and the artificial year must be brought
into concordance as nearly as possible.
The common civil year is too short by
.242216 of a day. In four years this
amounts to 96SS64 of a day and so both
in the Julian and Gregorian calendars
the last of this period of four years is
made leap year, or in other words
dav is added to it, making S66 days in
that year But not quite a day was
REQUIRED to bring the civil and solar
wear in concordance. The mean civil
wear thus fixed, is little too long, and
in the course of period Of 400 years
the civil calendar thus gains 3,1136 days.
So another balance IS struck between
the true and the artificial calendars by
the suppression of the intercalary days
in the years 100, 1900 and 1900, which
otherwise would be leap years. The
suppression of leap year in 1900 leaves a
gap between the two calendars of only

EXTRA TAILS GRATED ON FISH
BY JAPS.

Nearly everyone who has seen the
pretty bushtail goldfish that have four
or five or sometimes more, long, wavy,
f1lmy tails, but very few people know
that but very few of them are born that
way. When the little goldfish are very,
very young their flesh is as clear as
glass; so that one can see every bone in
their tiny bodies. At this time the few
that are born with two or more tails are
put by themselves, and then queer
looking old Jap, with great magnify
ing glass fastened in front of his eye
and wee sharp tools handy reaches
down under the water and cuts off the
tails of the plain little fish, and then
three or four of these tails are joined on
to the backbone where the one was cut
off and fastened there with tiny band
ages until they grow fast.
The Japanese who are very skillful in
queer things of this kind, grow the fin
est goldfish in the world, and it is a
very good business, for very fine fish
