ANCIENT COOKERY.
PLEASURES OF THE TABLE IN
 ALL TIMES DESCRIBED.
Great Rewards for ths Inventors of New DIshes-E1travRgauo by Royal ty to Please Their PaIates.

The whole subject of food has bean made the theme of his life study by George H. Ellwanger. an Englishman, who has embodied the most interesting facts in a book entitled 'The Pleasures of the Table"
 Of early natural foods, eggs. rice and honey, onions, succory, leeks and garlic, the leaves of the vine. radishes and carrots, were prominent. Coffee, of remote use in Abyssinia. was unknown to the early Greek and Romans. They were, however. familiar with the cu- cumber, cultivated in India for at least 5000 years. This fruit was also known to Moses; and the Israelites, fish, cu- cumbers, leeks and melons being among the food referred to by the great law maker as being among the delicacies freely eaten in Egypt. Oven baking is of great antiquity, but among races where civilization made small encroach- ments, laying the meat on hot stones. and covering it with ashes or hanging it upon tripod of sticks over the flames was the mode of roasting and broiling.
  ample of luxurious cookery, at least as it was understood in ancient times-the favorable climate and fertility of their products, as well as their natural in- clination to ease. all tending to foster love for the pleasures of the table. The oldest books of which we have any knowledge refer to their pomp in ban quoting, and portray the brilliant reVels of the oriental kings. Thousands of years before Heurion de Pensy pro- nounced his famous aphorism, a novel culinary preparation was regarded as of vaster importance than new celestial visitant The saturnalis of Darius and Xerxes, the powerful Persian despots, are notorious in history, as are also the feasts of Nebachadnezzar, king of Chal- dea, and those of Belshazzar, the final ruler of corrupt Babylon who feted and feasted a thousand of his lords, his wives, and his concubines Anticipa- ting the magnificence of the Roman enl- perors, Sardanapalus, last of the As syrian kings, offered a guerdon of thousand pieces of gold to him who would produce. new dish. Eat, drink amuse theyself; all else is van ity," was his maxim, and the precept he desired to have engraven on his tomb.
 It was toward the decline of the re- public, during the period of Pompey the Great Caesar and Lucullus, that the Roman suisine attained it's greatest celebrity.

THREATENS TO SHOOT HIS WIFE
william Spends Seventy-Five Cents
for evolve for that
Purpose.

William Chisem was arrested last even
ing, charged with threatening to shoot
his wife and carrying concealed weapons.
The concealed weapon" was a revolver
for which Chisem had paid 70 cents.
Chisem had trouble with his wife, who
is working for a family named Gilinksi on
Broadway, and he claims that Roy McKin-
ney, who followed them here from Shenan-
doah. has been paying her attentions,
which aroused his jealousy. Chisem went
to the Gilinski home last evening and asked
to see his wife. He was told she had gone
to Omaha Entering the house, he saw her
hiding behind a door. He invited her out
into the yard and she declined the invita-
ton. The police were notified, and when
Chisem saw Oficer Callaghan he took to
his heels and ran. The ofacer fred one
shot after him and this made Chisem run
all the faster. He ran down the alley back
Of Pearl street and hid in an areaway of
the Grand hotel, where he was found by
Of1cer Kirk.
Chisem claimed he carried the revolver
as he had heard that Mckinney, who ar
rived from Shenandoah three days ago,
was out looking for him with a gun. Chisem
formerly lived in Red Oak, but some months
ago went to Shenandoah, and from there
came to Council Bluffs. His wife placed
their children in the care OF the Associated
Charities in order that she might go out
to work.

Plumbing and heating. Bizby q Son.
Suggests boulevard to Manawa.

Colonel w. F. Baker of the Board of
County Supervisors, who has declined to
acknowledge the authority Of the city coun-
ell to designate on what streets or In what
manner the portion Of the county road fund
levied within the city shall be expended,
has suggested that the money DO used for
constructing a boulevard between the city
and Lake Manawa.
His plan is to construct a we'll graded
highway between Sixteenth avenue and the
lake. At present the two t~horoughfares
most generally used between the city and
the lake are low and in rainy season are
lalmost impossible. The old county road
least of the motor track is formed chiefly Of
Ssumbo and in wet weather becomes almost
useless for travel.
Colonel Bakers plan, 1t is said, is to Sc
cure gravel from the pits at Loveland and
use It on this road to Manawa. This, in his
opinion, will make 1t a frst-class driveway
and one that can be kept In repair at little
cost annually. As yet Colonel Baker has
made no such proposition to the city coun-
ell and 1t is not known whether the alder
Amen will agree to this manner Of expanding
Me citys share Of the county road fund.
The streets and alleys committee is anxious
TO have the money expended chiefly on the
streets within the city or at least a sub
~stantial portion Of 1t. This question, 1t is
expected, will come before the city council
ut its meeting tonight.

SOME FIGURES ON RAILROADS
Over Thirty Thousand Cars of Freight
In and out OF the Bluffs
Last Year.

Charles X. Taylor, secretary of the COM
mittee on advertising Of the Commercial
club. has compiled from the local railroad
records some interesting statistics relative
to Council Bluffs as a railroad center.
These statistics show that eight great rail-
way systems center in Council Bluffs, with
a total mileage OF 4s,922 miles. These same
railroads reach 9,474 towns, being nearly
one-third of the entire number of towns in
the United States which have railroad con
nections. During 1902 these eight railroads
received for Council Bluffs 1,s55, $40, 145
pounds of freight and during the same time
carried out of Council Bluffs 1922, 234, 1875
pounds Of freight. These figures mean that
the railroads handled about S0,3s9 carloads
Of freight for Council Bluffs in 1902.
The railroads entering Council Bluffs
have forty-hve passenger trains in and
forty-three passenger trains out of the city
daily, making a total of lightweight pas
senger trains in and out OF the city daily.
The same railroads operate forty-one reg
ular freihgt trains into the city and the
same number out Of the city daily, making
a total Of eighty-two freight trains daily
for Council BLUFFS. 1t will thus be seen
that no less than ITO trains run in and out
OF this city daily.

this place, has recently become involved
in serious trouble at Sabetha, Kan, and
will be compelled to answer in court for
threatening a daughter with a revolver.
The Waters family has been living the
last year in the south part Of this county,
near the state line, and for some time

weeks ago the situation became unbearable
for the wife, who took the younger chill
dren and left quietly for parts unknown,

of their absence he few into a rage and
attempted to force the daughter to tell
where they had gone. She asserted she

tives and later sent word to the daughter
to come to him at the hotel. She did so,
not suspecting anything wrong, but when
she arrived the father demanded that che
reveal the hiding place Of Mrs. Waters,
at the same time drawing a revolver and
threatening both her life and his If she
refused. She still protested that she did
not know and what the outcome might have
been is a matter of doubt, had not the
landlady heard the disturbance and ap-
peared on the scene with help. The
daughter later swore to a complaint against
her father snd the sheriff located him at
Bern, taking him to Seneca to answer to
the charge. Waters has been a hard
drinker for years and some Of the relatives
fear that his mind has become affected.
His family claims that they have lived in
fear Of him for a number Of years.

HAIR NATURALLY ABUNDANT.

Hair preparations and dandrutf cures. as

do no earthly good. Hair, when not di.
seased, grows naturally luxuriantly. Dand-
run is the cause of nine-tenths of all hair
trouble, and dandruff is caused by a germ.
The only way to cure dandruff is to kill the
germ; and, so far, the only hair prepara-
ton that will positively destroy the germ
