"a Vile Pretender."

Like sauerkraut, scrapple and lobster
a la Newburg, the pumpkin pie is an
exotic in these parts. It was brought
here from New England 185 years ago,
and it is to be found today upon the
bill of fare of every public coffee house
in Baltimore, but it has never been truly
natuialized. It is still benighted alien
tolerated, but not loved. The people
of Maryland are polite to it, but they
have no confidence in it.
A consideration Of the pumpkin pies
anatomy is sufficient to make these sus-
picions seems reasonable and just. 1t is,
in fact, an arrant fraud. 1t wears wig
and a mask, 1t pretends to be somec
thing that. it is not. Calling. itself
pumpkin pie, il is, in reality, spice pie.
The spices in it give it its flavor. The
pumpkin is reduced to the lowly office
of bulk producing solver or medium
that same Office which sand fills in su-
gar, sawdust in oatmeal and prune juice
in rye whiskey.
Thus examined in the cold glare of
actual fact, the pumpkin pie becomes
obviously bogus and unspeakably con-
temptible. The pumpkin in it is mere
stalking horse. One might substitute wa
ter-melon rind, cymling or mock orange
for it, and no one would be the wiser.
AS a matter of fact, common rumor
hints that in the pumpkin pie of COM
MERGE apple butter and glucose are. EN-
ployed in that nefariOus manner; and not
only apple butter and glucose, but also
cornstarch and bran.-Baltimore Sun.

RARE COIN LOST TO ITALY.
Paris Profits by the Discovery Made by a
Sicilian Peasant.

A Sicilian peasant found in field he
was ploughing last summer what APP
peared to be an old silver coin. He sold
it for a couple of francs to a dealer, who
discovered that it was an Abacaenum, a
coin belonging to the ancient town of the
Siculi called Abacaenum. situated be-
tween Messina and Tyndaris, and that
it was the only existing specimen of the
kind, which up to the present had been
completely unknown.
The coin was examined and illustrated
by the leading experts of Italy, who pro-
nounced it to be the rarest and most val
liable coin in the world. A conscientious
government inspector of excavations
hearing of it's rarity and value had it Sc
questrated and sent a long report to the
minister of public instruction describing
the find and asking for instructions.
Six months passed but he received no
answer. Then he returned the coin to
the owner.
The coin is now at Paris. where the
director of the Louvre had offered
large sum for it. The owner notified the
Italian government of the fact and Of
fered to sell the coin to Italy, but his
offer has been left unanswered The
Abacaenum is irrevocably lost for Italy.

Cats and Birds.

A game commissioner who recommends
the high licensing of the house cat IN
order that the lives of birds may be
spared has the courage of his convictions.
And though all, or many, of the facts in
the case may be on his side, the friends
of the cats will proceed to make life mis-
cradle for him by trying to convince him
that he misjudges the cats. 1t is the sec
rotary of the Pennsylvania game COM
mission who has most recently tempted
an avalanche of correction by saying that
there is no greater destroyer of bird life
than the cat. and many game protectors
in other states will be interested to see
whether in the face of all the attacks
made upon him he changes his point of
view, or holds firmly to an opinion al
ready expressed.-Boston Transcript.

Unlike Mary's lamb, the elephants

came into the schoolroom all the other
boys threw themselves flat down with
their faces to the ground-it was for
hidden FOR any one to stand or sit in the
presence of princes. 1 found this state

Stow away the tea cups,

The fragile ones of delft.

With pictures gay and bright,

THE TURN OF THE YEAR.

The pines shake and the winds wake,
And the dark waves crowd the skyline!
The birds fly out on troubled sky;
The widening road lies white and long,
And the page is turned,
And the world is tired
So I want no more of twilight sloth,
And l want no more of resting
And of all the earth l ask no more
Than the green sea, the great sea,
The long road, the white road
AND a change of life today!

Market Value of Wild Animals.

Some idea of the market value of
wild animals may be got from the
offers which are being made constant
ly to the Kansas City Geological So
ciety, which is organizing to establish
zoo in Swope Park.
One entire menagerie has been Of
fered for the block sum of $4,000.
In the schedule a male elephant is
quoted at $4,000 and a female at ST.
900. Two male camels are down for
$500 the pair, and pair of lions are
listed at $500. A family of three
lions, two of them males, is marked
at $3.50, and two other females at
$3.50 for both of them. The explana-
ton is made that lion is top price
at four to Ave years.
For 5000 the society can get a
leopard, and for the same money a
hyena. A black bear is priced at
800, and wolves at $25 each. A half
bred buffalo Is offered at $3.50, and
an elk at 500. An offer has been
made to the society by an Australian
dealer, but his collection is mostly
of birds that would be difficult to
keep alive in this climate.
