A Very Old Dinner.

An antiquary in the city OF Brus'
sells named Goebel gave perhaps the
oldest dinner which has ever been
eaten. A description was given by
one Of the guests, Mr.. Amaziah Dukes.
He says: "At the dinner ate apples
that ripened more than eighteen hun.
dred years ago; bread made from
wheat grown before the children OF
Israel passed through the Red sea,
spread with butter which was made
when Elizabeth was Queen OF Eng
land: and | washed down the repast
with wine which was old when Column
bus was playing barefoot with the
boys in Genoa.
"The apples were from an earthen
Jar taken from the ruins OF Pompeii.
The wheat was taken from a chamber
in one Of the Pyramids, the butter
from a stone shelf in an old we'll In
Scotland, where for several centuries
II had lain in an earthen crock in icy
water, and the wine was recovered
from an old vault in the city OF
Corinth. There were six guests at the
table, and each had mouthful OF
bread and teaspoonful of wine, but
was permitted to help himself bounti
fully to the butter, there being several
pounds Of It. The apple jar held about
two-thlrds of gallon. The fruit was
sweet and as finely favored AS If II
had been picked but yesterday"

pharaoh's Treasures,

While studying in the British Mu-
scum a papyrus which was published
1000 years before Christ, an Egyptol.
ogist recently found a clear and con.
else account of the treasures which
the ancient sovereigns of Egypt buried
in various parts of the Iibyan desert,
and now an expedition is being
formed in London for the purpose OF
searching for this wealth. The nee
essary. funds have already been Sc
cured and in short time few
skilled explorers will start for the
desert, where the technical "ork will
lie prosecuted under the ervision
of Messrs. Lake and Currie, two Eng.
lish engineers. The writer Of the
ancient papyrus says that the l'har'
aohs hid an immense quantity Of gold
and precious stones in the region
which is known by the name Of the
VALLEY of Kings" and there the first
excavations will be made. The task
will not be easy since the country to
be searched extends over 10000
square leagues.

CORN MEAL IN SAUSAGE.
cae of TIE Most Valuable of All Trade
Secrets.

A year or so ago man discovered
a method of adulterating sausages,
ard the odd part Of it is that it is a
healthful aduiteration, and the pure
food people can't kick on it. The
material with which the sausage is
adulterated is cornmeal. A man dis
covered a way of treating the corn
meal so that it could be added to
sausage, and no one could tell the
difference. AS corn meal is a good
deal cheaper than meat, several of TIL
big packers were quick to adopt it q
an aGulteration for the sausage they
turned out, and paid the inventor a
big royalty. But they finally kicked
on paying the inventor, and put their
experts to work to try to discover how
he treated the corn meal. The ex'
perts failed to discover the secret
Eut it is said that Elwyn Blair, of the
Blair mill, has discovered the method
o. treating the corn meal, and the
packing houses are after him-Atchi-

Unexpected Discoveries from Which
Wealth Was Made.
1t often happens that an ignorant
man will stumble upon an invention
which clever men have been working
over for years. At one time all the
gum used In England was made from
gum arabic and cost no end Of money.
1t happened one night that a big
starch factory on the banks Of the
Liffey, near Dublin, took flre and
great puddles Of starch and water
were found outside.

making an evening Of it came by, and,
being very tipsy, one Of them tum.

ing, when he tried to dress, all his
clothes we're stuck tight together as
II they had been dipped in glue, and
the wretched man was obliged to stay
in bed till his wife had soaked them
in clean water.
The man, from his trade, knew how
valuable this gum was, and taking the
rest of the party into his confidence
they experimental by scorching
starch on a fire shovel. They found It
made excellent gum when mixed with
water, and 1t was this invention which
enabled postage stamps to be pro-
duced in an adhesive form.

Old.Time Scratchbacks.

Some scratchbacks OF the old days
that have been preserved have whale
bone handles and ivory, Handicapped
heads. One specimen recently shown
in a collection had hand of the most
delicate and fragile type, the bones
family but clearly indicated, and the
fingers slim and very taper, Including
the handle, it was seventeen inches
long. Another was plump and sub
stantial, with a rather thick wrist,
measuring barely twelve inches alto
gether. Its slightly twisted handle
was capped with silver at the end.
A third example had a hand two and
half inches long and modelled on
proportionately large scale, the handle
being nearly sixteen inches in length.
All things are easy to the earnest.
