A SCIENTIFIC HOTEL.
There Was Hearty Good VIII In All Of
tho Cooking. :

In one of the most beautiful of our far
western cities there is a small family
hotel, filled always to overlooking and
p%erpetually besieged by fresh applicants
for admission, says the Impress.
1t is neither %gorgeously decorated nor
specially impressive in any way. Sub
dned coloringg, exquisite neatness aud
an air of solid comfort are its outward
characteristics, but added to this is the
fact that not ono of the men and women
who come and go under its roof have
the hotel expression, a look recognized
more quickly by foreigners than by our
selves. The average dweller in hotels.
g the best, is over-fcd aud under-fcd;
over-fed as to variety and amount, un-
der-fed as to scientific ordering OF the
menu, or any special adjustmentto his
personal needs and bears in his face the
marks of these conditions.
In the hotel in question a very differ
ent system prevails. Its mistress-for
u woman is at its head-was for a time
a highly trained and most successful
manager of n large cooking school and
discovered there that it is quality rather
than quantity that must he part of any
rational way Of feeding few or many;
chat all food must be prepared In such
fashion rs to retain the flavor we know
as homemade"
More than this, she believes that the
cook-man OF woman-must not only
love the work bft care also for the eat

A band Of men formed; the great rope
wound in and out around their arms as

crept young Will Treglyn to the crunl-

breaths, the men watched him drop him

moAlned with every breath from the an

andsthe Cornish miners commenced eau
tiously to pay OUT the rope.
Slowly, carefully, with jerks from be-

a jerk, a sudden strain; then more rope
was paid out, followed by aterrible strain,
a violent jerk that threw one of the rope
holders on his face, then came continued
jerks, and a terrible strain again, and
then a long pause.
Somethen have happened to un," the
men muttered; there hain't a hunnerd
foot of rope paid out yet"
There was a long pause, with only
straining and jerking at the rope, and
then, after another long pause, without
waiting for the signal, the men commenced
to pull up. Slowly up came the rope and
its burden again, and, with a cheer, and
with renewed outcries and tears from his
mother at the sight OF her 'laad" dripping
with sea-water, his hands and face COW
cred with blood, and n arm hanging USE
