Though Chinese cuisine has been
credited with some utterly fabulous
dishes, such as white mice served
alive, which add piquancy by their
squeak as they dive down the gullet,
curiosities in the edible line do form
a considerable list.
Birds nest soup, for instance; a
clear soup made from the refined
gluten with which a certain species
of swallow fasten their nests beneath
the rocks; stewed ''sea slugs," another
nasty sounding dish, but transcending
in flavor the aldermanic green turtle
fat. There may be, too, on first intro
duction, some prejudice against fried
grasshoppers. But courage in this in
stance is rewarded by a deliciously
crisp, brown mouthful, of a delicate
nutty flavor.
1t is fallacy to suppose that pork
forms a constant article of diet in
China. AS a matter of fact, it is too
expensive and is only eaten on high
days and holidays or at restaurants.
Neither do milk, beef or game enter
much into Chinese cookery, the first
two being tabooed on religious grounds.
Dog flesh Is eaten in the south but
rarely and only by the poorest of the

One of the officials of the road had

friends and can neither go with them
nor disappoint them. l want you to
give them the best there is in the larder
and see that it is served as well as it

Eph scratched his head and looked
troubled, but simply said, eyes, sah."
On the return several of the gentle
men congratulated the official upon
having such man." and one or two
lntimated that if Eph ever wanted an
other position he would have no trou-

ZINC star. and stripe. at Aere.

A good American had been making
some soul stirring remarks about the
glorious star spangled banner when an
,Englishman who is pretty well Ameri-
canized told little story apropos: 81
remember once to have seen the stars
and stripes applauded uproariously on
q peculiar occasion. 1t happened many
years ago when the British flag wasn't
as popular in the United States as It Is
now and a party Of us Englishmen
were at a theater in New York consid-
erably farther down town than thea
tiers are now to be found on Broadway.
The play was Richard L. and If you re-
member there Is a scene in the play
where Richard, after putting his foes
to flight in terrific style, mounts the
walls of Acre and plants the British
colors there. Evidently the manage
ment knew the temper Of the audience
and felt that even under such circum-
stances the British flag would not be a
good thing, so what did they do but
give Richard the star spangled banner,
and, by all the gods, he took it with
him in the charge and planted it on
Acres walls. 1t was ridiculous, Of
course, and we Englishmen laughed,
but the audience took it quite as the
correct thing, and the way the people
