The beastly Vitellius. as Gibbon calls
him, spent at least six millions OF
money on table in as many months. He
invented, or his cook invented for him
a dish which he designated ''the Shield
Of Minerva" One of its principal in
gradients was flamingoes' tongues, OF
which both Pliny and Martial speak in
encomiastic terms. Dampier says thai
the fiamingoes have large tongues
and near the root is a piece of fat
which is accounted a great dainty
When Captain owen was surveying
the east coast of Africa his sailors shot
down hundreds of these beautiful birds
In order with an extravaganza worthy
Of Vitellius, to make dish Of the
tongues alone.

Historic Albania.

Albania lies $50 miles on the Adriatic
sea and Is fifty to hundred miles
wide. 1t was formed originally, says
William Jackson Armstrong In his "He-
roes of Defeat" from part of Ilyris, all
of Epirus and part of Macedonia in the
eleventh century. From this territory
sprung Pyrrhus, who defeated the Ro-
man invader; Philip and Alexander of
Macedon, the conquerors; Perseus,
whose fame as soldier covered the
world sixty years after Christ, and
Skanderbeg, who for forty years de-
feated, armies sent against him by the
Turk. Ancient Albania lay in Asia, just
east Of the Caucasus.

Love In LaDland.

In Lapland the crime which, after
murder, is punished with the greatest
severity is that of marrying girl
against the wishes of her parents.
When sutton makes his appearance
he says nothing to the maiden, who
often does not know who he is, but her
parents inform her that she is sought
in marriage. Shortly afterward, on a
day appointed, the girl, her parents,
friends and sutton all meet together at
a feast, and the young man and maiden
are placed opposite, so that they can
look at each other freely and can talk
with comfort. After the meal is over
the company repair to an open space,
where 1.-The race for wife" is run. The
usual distance is about q quarter of q
mile, and the girl is placed third of
the distance from the starting point.
If she be fleet of foot she can easily
reach the goal before her suitor, and
in that case he may never trouble her
again. If, however, he has found ia
vor in her eyes, all she has to do is to
lag somewhat in her flight, so that he
may overtake her. If she desires to
intimate to him that his love for her
Is returned she may run little way
and then turn with open arms to ac-
cept him.

Great Mushroom Garden In France.
The strangest of the underground
worlds in France which l visited was
one devoted to the raising of mush-
rooms. Its limits seemed unbounded,
as indeed they were. for 1t pierced the

through an opening under an orchard
of cherry trees. During harvest time
a crop is gathered every twenty -four
hours. Three men. with their great
baskets, make the rounds Of this under.

day in the year can count on an i'm
mense crop, which they ship to the
large cities near by and even several

In appearance the Shetland shows a
rather short head. small muzzle, and
with refinement in every line. The
eyes are set wide apart, are large and
fawn-like. quite prominent and full of
intelligence; the ears are set well back,
fne-pointed and carried forward; the
name and forelock are long and thick.
the tail quite heavy and long. and the
back short and strong, the chest very
wide and indicative of great lung
power. Summed up for points, the
Shetland pony is exactly what a study
