cred Edible by the People
of Various Nations.

Among the various nations there have
been great differences as to articles con
sidered edible, and, of course, among
such as could be procured. The Tar.
tars, Marco Polo says, ate horses, cam
els, dogs and drank mares milk. The
Seythians also, according to H~erodotus,
drank mares milk. In China birds
nests, rats and snails are eaten. The
edible birds nests are found in the Nico
bars, a cluster of islands in the Bay OF
Pengal. These nests, built by the Mic
Char swallows, form bne of the princi-
Tsl exports OF the islands. The Green
landers depend largely on seals. The
ancient Germans, according to Tacitus,
ate wild apples. flesh and cheese. IN
Abyssinia the natives cut steak from
tie live COW, according to Bruce, and
ate the meat warn with the natural
heat, says L~ippincott's.
Among the Egyptians near Elephan-
tine the crocodile was an article of food
The Egyptians thought wheat and bar
poor food; they ate principally spelt
and yea. The priests ate beef, geese,
and took wine, but not fish. The Eeyp-
n did not eat beans or raise them.
They did not eat the head of any erea-
-ure. They ate honey and r~aisins.
Among them no cattle were killed ex-
'ept for sacrifice. They ate sheep and
and swine's flesh only when Of

20 vines, but made q liquor from bar
ey. They ate fish fresh and salted. or
