Christmas Cigars.

The Kansas City Journal AYERS that
all the talk about the quality Of cigars
purchased by wives for their husbands
at Christmas is buncombe in view Of
the fact that men are known to thrive
on campaign cigars. which are the most
notorious assaults upon the body poll

No woman could by accident or de-

ing in atrocity with the campaign va

have to pick out the vilest cigars rec
commended to her by her husband IS
worst enemy, and then steep them in
blue vitriol, cold tea and sulphurous
acid. No woman has ever done this,
and therefore no woman has ever
bought for her husband cigars that are
to be mentioned in the same state, ter
ritory or dependency with campaign
cigars.
Brands Of cigars are like brands Of
tea, coffee or whisky. One gets used
to the worst and has to have it or fall
away in health. When the wife brings
out her Christmas box of cigars they
may be good cigars, but they are not

Peculiar Foods.

The articles of food used by many
nations would be disgusting to Amer
lean epicures. In Africa the natives
catch locusts in net for table use.
They are salted and eaten with great
relish. The turks esteem goldfish a
delicacy, and the animal food OF the
Japanese consists largely of raw
fish. -.
The Pine Indians make a soup of
tobacco worms, and the Western
American Indians eat grasshoppers.
In California the digger Indians feed
on ants, which they prepre in vari-
Gus forms. Snails are raised and
fatted in Switzerland and then sent
to Vienna, where they are eaten dur
ing Lent.
In Java the natives hold mammoth
snake hunts. The flesh of the rep

of the boa-constrictor, is eaten with
relish by the negroes. Authorities
say it much resembles the flesh of
eels of this country. In Brazil liz

TO REVISE POSTAL LAW.
Postmaster General Wants Sec
ond Class Rates Over
hauled.

Postmaster General Cortelyou has
recommended TO congress to APP
pointment of commission to in
quire into the subject of second class
mail matter, with view to ascer-
tanning what notifications of the
present law are necessary.
THE existing statutes regulating
the second class mail matter are
out of date says the postmaster
general. They do not meet mod
ern requirements Of the publishing
industry, and the administration of
them unnecessarily and unreasonably
hampers the publishers of bona fide
newspapers and periodicals"
Mr.. Cortelyou expresses the be-
lief that the proposed commission
could make recommendations which
would result in laws equitable to
publishers, relieving them from
present annoyance and restrictions
and at the same time protecting the
interest of the government.
