THE SPLASHlNG HOUSE,
A French Yarn That Was Printed tC
Ridicule EnElishmen.


One of the most extraordinary tales
ever invented about Englishmen by
foreigners was the ''splashing house,
story, given to the world by the Paris
journal Patrie in 1863. An ingenious
writer in the paper gravely Informed
his readers that in the suburbs of Lon
don were houses where earth beaten
up into mud is retailed." TO these
houses men were accustomed to resort
in hunting kit for the purpose of being
splaShed with mud.
"These curious establishments are
provided with muds of different coun-
ties. but principally of those counties
where the hunting is best. The sale of
the mud is conducted in the most Sc
rious manner Imaginable; the attend
ant inquiries, From what county. sir,
do you wish it to be supposed you have
just returned? From the county of
Kent The pretended sportsman there
upon takes a seat on wooden horse
whose legs throw up the selected mud;
after having been well splashed the
customer pays his bill g shillings).

mirror. takes whip in his hand and
goes to exhibit his muddy clothes in

In addition to the chance of marry

paper man, the patron of the splash

date advantage. The mud with
which he is splashed affords. if not
| proof, strong presumptive evidence
that he is a landed proprietor in the
county whose mud bespatters him."
And landed proprietors being held in
vast esteem as solvent and desirable
creditors, the man can obtain anything
he likes at any shop Oh credit.
One wonders whether such Il wonder
full tale finds any believers among
those who read it.-London Live Stock

The Extinct Northern "Sea Cow"

The Extinct Northern ''Sea Cow"
In the year 1854 the Boring explor-
ers discovered gigantic species of ryti-
nae or northern sea COW. These enor-
nous manatees were similar in gener-
al habits to those of the South Ameri-
can coast and were from twenty to
thirty feet in length and from ten to
twenty feet in girth. They were very
stupid, harmless beasts and lived by
browsing on seaweeds and other ma
rine growths near the land. The sail
ors were not slow in finding out that
a sea COW steak beat seal meat "all
hollow" From 1854 until 116S they
were the principal food of the sailors
and explorers on our western coast.
This being the case. it is not at all sur
prising that the northern sea COW. new
er a very numerous species, should be-
come extinct in the short space of four
teen years. The last Of the giant man.
atees was killed in September. 116S. a
few months less than fourteen years
after the discovery of the first one.
