THE sAUERKRAUT PEDDLER.
A Character Common to the German
a section of New York.

The regular and popular visitor 10
the German inns and taverns .of the
east side is the sauerkraut man. lie
brings his calling with him from the
old country and finds a more profitable
field I'm New York than In Berlin or
Hamburg. His equipment Is quite Gu
rlous. lie wears a blue or white apron
running from bis neck nearly 10 the
ankles, and from his shoulders Is sus-
pended a circular metal box which
goes half around his waist II has
three large compartments. two Of
which are surrounded by hot water.
In one are well cooked frankfurter
sausages and in the other thoroughly.
boiled saucrkraut. In the third com
partmont Is potato salad. He carries In
his hand a basket in which are small
plates and steel forks. One sausagei
and generous spoonful Of sauerkraut
and potato salad cost , cents. All three
articles are OF good quality, well
cooked and seasoned. lie finds Ills best
customers I'm the bowling alleys, where
the excrtiOu demanded by the game
produces large appctitcs. Next 10 these
are the tavcrns which do not supply
food with their drink. Last Of all are
the halls and meeting rooms where
different societies assemble. His night
ly stock consists Of fifty sausages, sew
en- pounds Of saucrkraut and as much
more Of salad. On bad evenings he
takes only half as much stock as on
fair ones. Some Of the more fortunate
pcddlcrs have arrangements with clubs
which pay them very fair proht upon
their goods. Others are free lances
who visit every place where they think
they can effect a sale.
The metal boxes are very Ingenious
and are made in Germany. The metal
Is some variety Of pewter, and the
fitting Of the compartments and of the
entire affair 10 the body Is very nc.

IrI,nn Iung"Nity.

That the country Is the place to ac-
durc and preserve health IS theory
that has been exploded 10y the United
States census statistics. We have here,
toforc been advised To go TO the hills
and wales, the field and woodland, the
lake and river, where there Is an unin-
tcrruptcd prospect and the air of heay-
en- has n free sweep, but now this ad-
vice must be changed and the pent up
cities recommended for health, If the
census authorities are right.
According TO the official figures the
city has decided advantage over the
rural districts I'm the matter Of human
longevity. The average age reached In
the cities Is $50 years and I'm the coun-
try 81. There the urban has an ad-
vantage Of IL years over the suburban.
The advantage of pure air In the coun-
try is apparently more than offset by
sanitary and food advantages In the
