birds which are not commonly used fo,
food. They are prepared for him az
cording TO his special instructions.
\ standard dish of his consists of six
sparr0ws served up at once, all of which
must have been shot for him the same
day. But he has also an extensive ey.
perience of the eating of tame song
birds, and thus, upon different occasions.
has ordered that two good roast canaripS
shall be prepared for him, a gray parrot
and pair of bullfnches. These prove
rather expensive luxuries, but such pee
pie with special tastes are prepared tc
pay for them.
''One of the funniest customers have
ever had to deal with" said q famous
restaurant proprietor to the writer, IS a
gentleman who is constantly striving for
novelty of some kind in his dinners not
so much in the strange character Of the
food as in the order and method of Serv.
ing. Thus on more than one occasion he
has taken my special dinner according 10
the menu, but has, TO my sorrow, insist
ed upon reversing the order completely
and running it. At these times he has
commenced with a cup OF coffee. and
then gone on to an ice. sweets, meats.
entries, fish, soup and oysters in this
order Gastronomically, this is hideous.
but he swears he enjoys it much better
than the old-fashioned way. As ne is
worth nearly $3.50 a year TO me l can
not protest"
And another dinner novelty is to be
found in a rival establishment, which is
patronized once a week by stout Old
gentleman who carries the principle Of
taking time over ones meals to its far
thest limit. He turns up at O'Clock
sharp, leaving only when the lights are
being turned low at midnight and he has,
during the six hours, eaten five courses,
spread evenly over the whole period, with
a forty-minutes' interval between each.
He pays double prices.-Cassell's Jour

Whence contest Thou, and whittier goests
Say. If Thou knOwest.

On sOdden face and ragged singer

That fiaunt their gaudy wares tonight
From gold and gems that show so brayeIy
Thou turnest graYey.
Nor dainty food nor glittering toy
Allure Thy glance, Thou little Boy:
., where, bareheaded dost Thou wander
On what dost ponder.
Then said the Child 'In wind and wet

Here IS no stable and no Manager
For Me the stranger.

The drops of rain are soaking down.
