L1cHENs AS FOOD.
Many Varieties Of Sea Growths Are
Used by the Chinese and some
Dy Americans.

In 'The Imperial Book Upon Foods, -
. curious volume issued by the Chinese
government, over 40 MOSES and sea
lichens are recommended for food pur-
poses, and Instructions given respect
ing their preparation. In general they
are washed so as to remove all sand
and shells. They are theE dried in the
sun or in kilns. Next they are cut up
and stored. When they are to be used
they are boiled for several hours and
strained. The filtrate is not thrown
away, but is treated with another
preparation, again filtered, and the
liquid evaporated. The first filtration
saves about IS per cent, and the sec
ond 40 per cent. The solid from the
first operation ranges from pure
mucilage to a mucilage mixed with al
buminoids and starch. The solid from
the second operation contains little
mucilage and starch, considerable SOL

HIS FIRST LOVE.

d She had an album once wherein
Were photographs of Sinking men:
All, what q willful fiirt she was.
And what a gosling was then!
q "A dozen beaux trailed after her.
And on her mantel, side by side,
Were rows of portraits of the fools
Who heard her mo" and nearly died.
It seems but yesterday that she
Looked sweetly, sadly in my eyes
And gently stroked my curls and gave
A little sigh and babe me rise:
"For I'm a woman; you," she said,
'.Are nothing but boy, you know
All, heaven! My soul was crushed that day,
q Ny heart was riven by the blow!
I wonder where her album is
And If my portrait still is there?
All, yesterday she welcomed me
And, smiling, rushed to get chair.
Upon the mantel I beheld
The portrait Of a pudgy child:
my daughters little one," she said,
And sighed, fancied, when I smiled.

The Queens Apology,

One of the great sources of the
queens power was the extreme atten-
ton she gave to detail. This extended
to everything which came under her
personal notice. The story of her
writing her name in the dust on a
piece of furniture, while making a
tour of Windsor castle, and under
meath it also the name of the house.
maid who was responsible for the
neglect, I have never heard con-
frmed, but many little stories attest
her far-seeing supervision in every
thing. She never considered the small
est courtesy beneath her dignity.
Madame NJ, lady-in-waiting to the
duchess of Connaught, is responsible
for this little anecdote illustrating
this. At the time of the christening of
little Prince Edward, the eldest son of
the duke of York, through some mis-
take Madame Ms invitation was
forgotten. She did not go to the GER
emory. but seeing the queen soon
after, her majesty asked why she had
not been present, inquired into all the
particulars, and made many excuses.
Just then the duchess came up. "It's
such a pity about Madame Ms in
vitation," said her majesty, ''but
there's no need for you to say any
thing. I've apologized.' -Harper's
Bazaar.

she is dreadfully imposed upon, but
you couldn't convince her of that.
One day last week she came to me
and said: Nephew, have you an old

what do you want a pair of trousers

Alice shuddered into forlorn little
heap; he had seen her so disfigured;
that horrible nose had ended every
thing! Otherwise, at least he might
have loved her. But how could he be
expected to carry forever in his heart
the image of that infamed face? She
had not been able to kill herself-only
assured herself she was frightful, and
wept bitterly.
Now appeared her mother. very ten

Fred, who had answered summons

The next day this assiduous physi-
clan came again, bringing a box of
marshmallow caramels and the latest
bit of gossip-the elopement the even
ing before of NJ. Anatole Fleury and
Miss Lily Vansittart. A telegram had
been received from TIE pair, welded
in New Jersey; Li]ystfather, in order
to give the best appearance to the
affair, had allowed it to be reported at
once at the club. Alice blamed bit
terly, in her heart, her impossible nose
as the cause of the sudden detection
of her adorer. "How could hep" she
exclaimed, involuntarily.

The Welsh In Patagonia.

The fortunes of the interesting little
Welsh colony at Chupat, in Southern
Argentina, are about to enter on a new
phase. 1t will be remembered that
some two years ago deputation from
Chupat visited this country in the hope
of enlisting the aid of the British gov
ernnent. The colonists asked either
for Incorporation with the empire as
being purely British community or,
in the alternative, for independent au-
tonomy. on the ground that their terri
tory was a no-man's-land Mt the time
When they took it in occupation, and
that the Argentine title to sovereignty
was not clearly established. The mis-,
sion, however, was unsuccessful. In
the face Of opposition in Buenos Ayres
and Of jealousy in Washington it was
Impossible to obtain any sympathy at
Whitehall, and the question seemed too
trivial to arouse public attention. But
to the colonists themselves it was very
far from being small matter. Their
plucky action in making an appeal to
London was bitterly resented by the
Argentine government. The leaders of

thrown into prison. The military mea-

Two Troublesome Brothers.

In his speech on Tories at the Eighty

liam Harcourt said: 'sThe old Sayov
song says that every child alive is born
either Liberal or else Conservative,
and it appears that the elder sons are
born Conservatives and the younger
sons become naturally Liberals. That
is a satisfactory condition of things,
because by the law of nature we young
er sons are in the majority; and hope
am addressing a great number of
younger sons. My brother, to whom I
was greatly attached, was the elder
and was the younger son; and we
naturally had different political ideas.
He one day said to me: My dear fel-
low, you have no landed ideas.' 1 said:
No, have not; that is very natural.
You have got the land, and why should

he had met in the Carlton club a gen.

Another Story of j. J. Hill.

James j. Hill, the great railway mag
nate, began life in a very humble way.
He was clerk on Mississippi levee,
and so poor that, when he was called
upon to make a railroad trip of few
hundred miles, he had to borrow the
money to pay for his ticket. But he
was full of pluck and energy, and, see
ing an olnoccupied gap in the field COW
cred by the Hudson Bay Company, in
the Red River country, in Canada, he
formed partnership with friend in
st. Paul to enter the fur trade there.
Their common practice was to load up
an on train with supplies for the
French Canadian traders, who dealt
directly with the Indians, make long
journey through the wilderness ito the
outposts, and bring back their wagons
laden with pelts, says a writer in Sue,
cess.
On one occasion, while still very
young man, Mr.. Hill was obliged to
make long midwinter trip alone. His
journey led through the widest coun-
try, and was chosen in order to reach a
certain point ahead of any competitor.
He filled a knapsack with rations,
hired half-breed Indian for a guide,
and started off. The pair had travelled
about two days away from civilization.
and We're in region entirely strange,
without q beaten trail or landmark Of
any description when Mr.. Hill grew
suspicious that his guide was prepar-
ing to kill and rob him. He feared that
the fellow had been tampered with by
some rival fur traders. That night nc
slept with one eye open and saw GER
tain things which confirmed his worst
suspicious. The Indian, for example,
stealthily drew the ammunition from
the gun which lay nearest the supposed
sleeper, leaving the other, near himself,
still loaded.
Mr.. Hill did some very rapid think
ing within the next hour, and conclud-
, ed that his alternative of choice was
between submitting to be murdered
