Roast Pig . La Lamb In China.

roast pig: "How little western writers
understand the Chinese! Who has
not read and rejoiced over Lambs
Dissertation Upon Roast Pig? 1t Is
not everybody who has the chance
of seeing Lambs fascinating story
worked out in real life. In the begin
ming of the present Chinese year l
passed through busy market village
where the people kept many pigs. In
the middle Of the night fire broke
out In the market village and de-
stroyed the whole place. No lives had
been lost, but most Of the pigs had
been roasted, especially those too fat
to run quickly. Roast pigs! Burning
houses! Lambs story in real life!
Quite naturally remarked that some
folk must have had splendid meal of
roast pork in those days. To my SUI
prise the natives asked with disgust:
"a splendid meal! Who would eat
that sinking, smoky stuff? The
palate Of the Chinaman absolutely re.
jects smoky roast pork! All that mag

In many Scotch families the old man
servant is a permanent institution. He
enters the service of family when he
is a boy, sticks to his place and re-
signs only when the infrmities Of age
are upon him. Naturally he grows In
time to claim as rights what were at
first granted him as favors and If he
is opposed asserts himself with spirit
of independence. An English paper
tells story illustrative of this.
A lady's coachman, a crusty old Eel
low, who had been in the service OF
the family in her fathers time, gave
her great trouble and annoyance on
several occasions by not carrying out
her instructions. At length his conduct
became unbearable, and she determin
ed to dismiss him. Calling him into
her presence, she said with as much
asperity as she could command:
81 cannot stand this any longer, John
You must look out for another situa
ton. You will leave my service at the
end Of the month"
The old servant looked at her II
amusement for minute, and then the
characteristic loyalty" came to tho
surface.
INA, ma, my lady," he said. II drove
you to the kirk to be baptized, l drove
you to your marriage, and I'll stay tt

A School of PoisOners.

A merciless school Of prisoners once
flourished in Venice. During the fif-
teenth century even the government of
the state used poison without any dis
guise as weapon. A body called 1.-The
council of ten" was appointed to deter
mine who should be dispatched, and
they dealt with the lives Of princes,
kings and popes as one would deal with
superfuous trees in wood. A curious
document is still extant in which the
proceedings Of this council are record
ed. 1t shows that one John Of Raguba
prepared a selection of poisons and
scale of fees. The fee varied with the
Importance of the victim and the length
of the journey to be made for his dis
patch. For poisoning the Duke of Mil
an he charged 80 ducats, for the pope
100 ducats, for the king of Spain $50
ducats, for the great sultan" 500 due

NESTING WOOD DUCKS.
The Courtship Period Is Followed
by a Very Prosaic Married Life.

1,he Courtship Period Is Followed
by a Very Prosaic Married Life.
When pair Of wood ducks find
water and hollow tree to suit, little
time is lost in preparing the nest. This
task and the covering of the eggs are
performed by the female, for, to the
best Of my knowledge, the male does
little more than sit around on handy
limbs and look pretty. During the
period of nest building and while the
duck is laying he is the beau ideal OF a
handsome and loving cavalier, ever at
tentive and seemingly most anxious as
to her whereabouts should she happen
to get out Of his sight. But with the
waning of the honeymoon he seems to
feel rather bored with the whole busi-
ness, and gradually he gets clubbyI.
e., wanders from his own fireside and
hunts up another drake or two to help
him loaf away the summer. The busy
little duck keeps her own counsel and
"sits tight" on the dozen or more highly
polished ivOrylike eggs crowded to-
gether in bed of soft decayed wood
and down from her breast.
Quite frequently the nest is at the
bottom of a hollow several feet deep,
and no doubt the strong, hooked claws
of the wood duck are a special pro-
vision for the oft repeated climbing out
of the hollow.-Edwyn Sandys in Out

Mot the Honey he Meant.

Frank Anderson was for years we'll
known commercial traveller who regular
" visited Galena, Kan. He was pas
sionately fond Of honey, and the pro-
prietor of the hotel at which he always
stopped always had some on hand for
him. On one trip Anderson took his
wife along, and as he approached Galena
he mentioned to her that he was getting
to place where he could have honey.
When the pair were sitting at the sup
per table that night no honey appeared,
and Anderson said sharply to the head
waiter: "Where is my honey?"
The waiter smiled and said: "You
mean the little black haired one? o, she
don't work here now!"
And Anderson never did get it fixed
up satisfactorily with his wife.
