THE SMOKERS PARADISE.


Ruic In Holland.
Holland is the smokers paradise.
Not only is the climate one which al
most conpels Indulgence in tobacco
but The fragrant leaf may be had in
abundance and at small cost
The luwidity OF the climate leads
naturally 10 continual smoking. and so
common is the habit that instead of
measuring distances by miles it is Gus
tomary for the boatmen to declare a
place 10 be 50 many pipes distant.
On entering the house of friend a
cigar is offered you. the host sees that
you are kept well supplied during your
visit, aud fresh cigar upon leaving is
us necessary as a hat. Old friends are
not permitted to depart until their
cases have been rcfiled, and the ncces-
sity for this becomes l9na..,,it when 1t
is known that he3 ti3ually lights
his fresh cigar FROM dr. ~ y, Of the
previous one, keeping one in his mouth
continually.
PIPE smokers are equally devoted to
their habit, taking their pipe to bed
with them and only laying 1t down
when they become sleepy. Should they
awake during the night they indulge in
short smoke before going to sleep
again, ana they always light their pipes
before getting ont of bed in the morn

THE MILK OF THE AGED.

Honey In the Oldcn Days XVau
Thought to Prolong Life.
Honey has been known from the
earliest times. The Scriptures make
mention of it. and pagan writer's cele-
brhted its virtues. 1t was called .'the
milk Of the aged" and was thought to
prolong life. Honey was also used in
the embalming of the body after death.
This food. as useful MS 1t is delicious,
WAS esteemed most highly by the
Greeks, who celebrated It's virtues
alike in prose and verse, so that the
fame of Attic honey has been trans
mitted unimpaired to our own day.
Used in all kinds OF pastry, cake and
ragouts, it was also esteemed as n
sauce. Pytliagoras in the latter part
of his life was Il vegetarian and lived
wholly on bread and honey, diet
which lie recommended to his disciples.
And this gentle philosopher reached
the ripe age of ninety years before lie
departed from life.
The true source from which honey
is derived was only discovered in later
years. Virgil supposed that its de-
licious sweetness fell from heaven up
on flowers in the shape of gentle i'll
visible dew, Il belief which lie shared
with Pliny and even Galen. 1t was
left to modern observers to study with
enthusiasm plant life and bee life and
learn from them some of the most Won
dcrful lessons of nature.
Honey was often served by the an
clients at the beginning OF Il banquet in
order that the uncloyel palate might
enjoy to the full its exquisite favor.
