is not used to this, as his wife, who was

spoonfuls of what he took to be coffee.
After all was done, the cOffeepOt

by his own self to break his fast. The
coffee did not seem very hot, so he drank
off half the cup in three or four swal-
lows. Then the roof started. He yelled
like "A maniac. His trembling little wife
ran out to see her husband dancing
about on one foot and screeching like a
maniac.
He ran to the water pipe and drank
off two quarts of cold water and then
quoted down enough to ask: "What in

She smelled of it and said: why

PATE DE FOIE GRAS.
The Fearful Cruelty That Makes This
Dainty u Possibilities.

To the ordinary man and woman no
conception of the torture to which the
poor, unfortunate goose is put could
possibly be formed.
The geese when about months old
are taken from the pastures and placed
in an underground cellar, where broad,
slanting stone slabs stand in rows, and
are bound fast to the tables. They are
literally crucitied.
Feet, wings and bodies are spread
out and bound by bands, SO that only
the neck is left free. As may be mag
ined, the animal struggles with all its
might against this stretching, till, after
days of vain endeavor to free itself
from the bands and its position, its
powers of resistance are overcome, and
a dull resignation, broken only by its
low cries, takes possession of it. Two
months must pass away before death
brings relief.
The animals are meanwhile crammed
with dumplings made of dough Of buck
wheat, chestnuts and stewed maize
Every two hours, six times a day, they
receive from three to five dumping
pills, which in time become so sweet to
the tortured creatures that they stretch
their necks to be crammed.
The most difficult task is to deter
mine the right moment for death
Those who die of their own accord are
lost to the liver factory, therefore a
kind of study is needed to see when the
cup of agony is trimming full and the
liver is ripe for taking. The bodies of
such ripe ones are like pumpkins
where ordinarily fingers are buried in
flesh and fat nothing but skin and bone
are found. The livers have absorbed all
the strength and juices.
