LONG BURNING FIRES.


Some In England Which Have Not
Been Out For Centuries.
There are domestic fires burning in
Yorkshire, England. today which have
never been out for hundreds OF years.
AT the old fashioned furmliouses In the
dales of Yorkshire peat is still burned.
The fuel is obtained from the moors,
and stacks of 1t are kept by the farm
crs In their stack garths.
The country round about is noted for
Its "grdle cakes" which are made
from dough baked In quaint pans sus-
pended from the peat fires. These fires
are Kept glowing from generation to
generation. and the son warns him
self at the fire which warmed his sire
ana his grandsire and his grandsire's
sire and which will warm his son and
his sons son.
There is a fire at Castleton, in the
Whitby district, which has been burn
Ing for over 200 years. The record
probably Is held by II farmhouse at
Osmotherly, In the same district. Tho
fire has been burning for 500 years,
ana there are records to show that It
has not been out during the last three
centuries.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

SEAWEeD rs FOOD.
When Dry 1t Is Eiriier Than Oatmeal
or Intii.n Corn

When Dry 1t Is Richer Than Oatmeal
or Indian Corn.
Scaweed Is eaten on the COASTS of
Scotland and Ireland in vast cuanti-
ties and. though umpalatablc and lla-
vorless, is Mt times the chief food OF
the poorest.
When dry it is richer than oatmeal or
Indian corn in heterogeneous constituents
and takes rank among the most nutr-
tious of vegetable foods.
To prepare seaweed for the table it
should be STEPPED in water to get rid of
the salt with which it is impregnated,
and Il little carbonate OF soda removes
the bitter taste, which to some palates
Is most disagreeab.c. 1t should then be
stewed in milk or water till muc.lagi-
nous and is best Favored with vinegar
orpcpper.
Fungi are almost everywhere largely
eaten, though in England less attcn-
tion is paid 10 them than they deserve,
and few kinds appear ut table,
curious error is To suppose that
fungi are eatable and tondstools poi
sonous. No such line of demarcation
exists nor, strictly speaking, has the
name toadstools any precise meaning.
Very many fungi are edible. and the
common agaric usually eaten in Eng
land is not the NEST palatable and
wholesome. Few foods are more sa-
worry, and none are greater favorites
than well cooked fungi. and the souls
of vegetnrians yenrn for them.-Pear-
sons Weekly.

Told Who lie Was.

DIR. Bendon, IL former rector in Ell
than, Kent, England, one Sunday
preached from the text WHO art
thou" After reading 1t he made
pause for the congregation to reflect
upon the words, when n man In mill
tary dress who mt that instant was
marching very sedately up the middle
aisle Of the church, supposing ii ques-
ton addressed TO him, replied. Il am,
sir, an officer of the Sixteenth regiment
of foot OH II recruiting party here. and,
having brought my wife and family
with me, | am come to church because
l wished to be acquainted with the
neigllbor!ng clergy and gentry" This
so derangcd the divine and astonished
the congregation that the sermon was
concluded with considerable difficulty.
