REPUGIAMT MEALS.
What People Can Live on Under The
Stress OF Circumstances.


Stress Of Circumstances.
The inhabitants Of Paris once liv-
81 under Henry ". during a siege
on the most repugnant meals. All
grass which could be found, even
that growing between the stones Of
the pavement, was cooked into
soups. In a field oven erected espe-
cially for this purpose delicious
pastries Of ground bones were made
up during period Of three weeks,
and the necessary bones were OBJ
tanned from nearby cemetery.
What occurred during the siege of
Paris in 1871 is still in mind. Peo-
pie ate almost all the animals of the
geological garden. One Of the
butchers sold monkey and urchin
meat, and canal rat as well as dog
meat became classical" A bakers
family consumed during the siege
their entire shop. e., all their
goods and an aged tradeswoman
stayed in her basement for 143 days,
living during all that time on moth
ing but cheese. The polar explor-
ers knew even worse meals. The
pioneers Of the pole considered raw
fish and polar bear meat delicacies,
and Nansen is authority for the
statement that he and his men were
exceedingly delighted when they
succeeded in baking cakes with IL
Illuminating oil. From tarred rigging
Of the ship and from the lichens
which were found on the desolate
rocks not infrequently the strangest
soups were made.
In the year 1901 the well digger
Simon Of Bonneval, near Charities,
was entombed by fallen sand and
remained SO for five days, having
nothing to eat or to drink. In 1897
some miners in Wales were rescued
from an entirely flooded mine after
ten days, still alive. The water had
already risen to their chins.
There are, however, still more re-
markable cases. The London Phil
osophical Transactions told of
man who had stayed in a cellar, COW
cred by the debris of the building.
twenty-four days without eating and
drinking. Italy, too, presents an in
stance. It is reported by Sonic, the
physician of the king of Sardinia.
In Piedmont three women had been
overtaken by an avalanche and had
been living, when they were rescued
on March -, 1855, under the debris
OF q stable for thirty-seven days.
