the food and cooking was all that could
be desired, and at very moderate prices.
If you happen to know the Rio Grande

to them that it will afford me the
greatest pleasure at all times to bear
testimony anywhere to the above facts.
Very truly yours,

A LegIess Wheelbarrow.

Metal barrows are coming in slowly,
but none the less surely, this being an
other of the many instances in which
steel and structural iron are supplant-
ing the time-hOnored wood. They are
designed for work in mines, and being
indestructible and cheap they are eS-
pecally adapted for the use of contrac-
tors.
The body is hung very low, and is of
such a shape and strength that little
damage can be done to it, even though
it be severely handled. The frame
bars and handles are formed of one
continuous piece of pipe. The wheel is
also especially designed, the hub con-
sisting of two interlocking clutches,
between which the spOkes, consisting
of pieces of bar iron bent so as to
form two spokes, are held. Not the
least valuable feature of this barrow,
the invention of William James Freed,
of Eureka, Utah, is the fact that If
damaged it can be repaired by ordinary
mechanics, all the parts being simply
put together and designed with that
end in view.
The absence of legs, it Will be noticed,
is interesting. and allows the barrow to
rest fiat on the ground, so that it may
be quickly and easily filed and
dumped. The legs, it is asserted are
one of the weakest parts of the ordin-
airy wheelbarrow, and are apt to be-
come loose and ricketY.

Hunger the Best Sauce.

There are many good old stories that
are worth reviving. Here is one about
Henry WILL, who took to the crown
all the property of the church, and
who, during his reign, had many jokes
at the expense of the abbots and the
clergy. On one occasion he had been
hunting in Eppng forest, and hal
come to Waltham Abbey alone, dis
guised as one of his own guard. Dinner
was just ready, and he was invited to
the abbot's table. His appetite was so
good that the abbot at last exclaimed,
unaware whom he was addressing, 81
would willingly give hundred pounds
on condition | could feed as heartily on
beef as thou dost!' A few days later
the abbot was mysteriously sent for,
taken to London, and committed to the
Tower, where for some time he was
fed ON bread and water, wondering the
while what crime he had committed
One day, however, a sirloin of beef was
set before him, and his hearty attack
thereon showed that the strict regimen
Of his captivity had worked wonders
Upon this the merry monarch himself
suddenly entered and demanded a
hundred pounds the reward the abbot
had so rashly promised for the restora-
tion Of his appetite. The money was
In due course paid, and the prisoner
went home to Waltham rejoicing.
