A Tribute to Sauerkraut.

Those Americans who have visited

raised by grateful Bavaria to the men,
DRY of st. Hermann of Pilsen, in
ventor and protagonist of sauerkraut.
The genial old saint, n smile upon his
face, is seen stirring large kettle Of
kraut with an oar of gilt bronze, and
so lifelike is the carving that the trav-
eler, standing by, can well nigh scent
the perfumed steam and hear the flut-
ter of angelic wings. In these unro-
mantle United States we have no pub
lie monuments to Hermann, and his
very name indeed is unknown to nll

the delicious victual he gave to the
