Raleigh and the Potato.
From What-tO-Eat.

trOm Wnat-lO-Eal.
1t was Sir Walter Raleigh who brought
potatoes into Ireland. at the same time he
brought the other American product-tobac-
co. Sir Walter was busily engaged in op-
pressing the people about Cork. so, natural
ly, when he planted the potato on his estate
at Youghai. near Cork, the people were
suspicious of it despite it's palatableness
Goblet cursed the root as being the ruin
Of Ireland, declaring it a device of Saxon
ingenuity brought into their midst. to tempt
and eventually to weaken them. Sir Walter
ate quantities of potatoes himself, before he
could assure the people Of their harmless
ness. Now, with commendable gratitude,
the tourist is shown the very spot in the
garden where Sir Walter planted the pota-
to root. Close by it is another historical bit
Of ground; there it is claimed Sir Walter
rested under the shade of a tree smoking
his first pipe Of tobacco when his servant
deluged him with pail of water, under the
impression he was on fire.

his patient had died few Gays before.

SCANDINAVIAN RESTAURANTS
Quaint Establishments Recently Start
ed in New York City.

From the New York Evening Post.
The rapid growth Of the Scandinavian
population Of New York is shown by the
foundation Of Swedish newspapers, Nor
weg1an societies, Danish clubs, and, last
Of all, by the quaint restaurants similar to
those found in the smaller cities of the
Morse peninsula. They bear a strong re-
semblance to the Italian pensione and the
old-fashioned French table d'hote. They
are quiet and conservative. catering to their
own people and making little or no effort
to attract outside custom. Their general type
Is a large, plainly furnished room or hall In
which long wide table runs from one end
to another. Sometimes small tables are en-
ployed to accommodate possible overflow
from the main one. but these are the ex-
ception and not the rule. On week days
breakfast is served at z, luncheon at II
and dinner at 9. On Sundays and holidays
breakfast at 8, dinner at and supper at
O'Clock. The proprietor or his wife preSideS
at the opening of the meal. They eat light
ly and quickly. and soon leave their places
to walt on their guests. A wise man comes
punctually to the board, for then the food
is at it's best. If hour or two late. the
best dishes are exhausted and he can eat
.only what is left over. The food is generous
in quantity and excellently cooked. Some
Of the dishes are familiar to an American
or German palate. Others are peculiar to
the north. White bread is used sparingly,
breads. all Of which have a sourish taste.
Most characteristic Is the brown unleavened
bread. which resembles the Jewish matzoth,
but is Of very dark color. Fish is used Of
tener than 1t is by Americans.
In the treatment of meats, the stew and
galantine appear to be the favorites. Beef,
veal, mutton, lamb and pork are baked or
boiled sliced and the slices stewed in an
appetizing sauce The galantines are house
hold words. Unlike the Drawn Of England,
or the headcheese of New York. little or no
attempt is made to remove the bones. A
calf's head or rib piece. a pigs head or leg.
Is broken up with cleaver and knife and
boiled down to a jelly. This is seasoned
with salt and pepper, and sometimes with
spices, and poured into mold, where 1t
jellies and solidifes.
Sausage and smoked, sailed and picked
meats are also very common, and are pre-
pared in many ways. Vegetables and fruit
are used sparingly, the potato, turnip and
onion among the former and the apple,
prune and plum among the latter being
most in vogue.
The drinks are coffee, tea, milk, butter
milk and beer. Cakes and buildings are
common; pastry uncommon.
Restaurant prices are very reasonable.
Full table board ranges from 81 to Sc a
week. The rates for separate meals are:
For breakfast, 20 and % cents; dinner 80 to
so cents; luncheon or supper, 20 to 30 cents.

dlemas day, will be observed in all the
Catholic churches of the city Monday
morning with the special service provided
for the occasion. This feast is of an in

clared Him the light Of the Gentiles
