The Rcd Hun1inu Cont

1t is said that one of the early Hen
rvs was so enamOred of the sport Of
fox hunting as TO Orlain it to be
royal sport, and the red coat was worn
in consequence. This, however, has
been pointed at as absurd. as in those
days scarlet was not Il royal livery ut
all. one thing there can be no doubt
about, and that is the scarlet coat is
very popular for those who hunt reg
ularly, and it must be confessed that
it adds piCtureSqueneSs to the scene.
The question of color seems to be
very much Il matter Of taste. 1t is
looked upon as an indication Of social
position In the abstract any one can
don the pink if 50 desired, but it is con
sdered out of taste to adopt that color
if one does not literally subscribe to
the hunt fund. The black coat is con
sidCred out of taste to adopt that color
ana the ordinary mufti garment for
those whose subscription is very small
indeed London Standard.

Gum Gathering.

In YuCatan the gathering Of the ia
nous chicle chewing gum is an Occupa-
ton apparently full Of romance, not
unattended with considerable danger.
Bands of men, known as "chiClerOS,"
90 into the deep forests. under eX-
perienced leaders, armed with heavy
knives of special make, pals and ladies
for the sap, and each provided with
a strong rope more than eighty feet
long to be used in climbing the lofty
SapOta trees from which the gum is
procured. The sap flows from gashes
cut il the bark. \ camp of chicleros
where the sap is boiled resembles III
some respects an American maple
sugar camp. After months of work
the chcieros return from the forests
laden with bricklike blocks of aromatic
gum. The finest gum. known as
"sicte," is collected from the fruit of
the sapota, mostly by the native woin-
en-. and is seldom exported because it
is too well liked at home.

Making Fondant.

An experienced candy maker advises
that there should be nothing boiling on
the stove to throw off steam while
sugar is cooking for fondant and that
in the Summer season a damp, rainy
day should not be selected for the
work.
UncoOked fondant is much easier to
make than the cooked, but needs to be
used at once TO be satisfactory. Meas
ure out water equal to the whites Of
two unbeaten eggs. Beat the eggs to
a froth add the water and gradually
beat in confcctioners' sugar until there
is paste that can be handled. This
fondant makes the base for unlimited
combinations of sweets.
