sixtsenth Century Meals.

Judging from a passage in Harri- sons Description of Britain" break fast eating in the sixteenth century was held to denote effeminacy. ''Here- tofore," he writes, s'there hath been more time spent in eating and drink ing than commonly is in these days, for, whereas of old we had breakfasts in the forenoon, beverages or nuntion after dinner and thereto reare suppers when 1t was time to go to rest, now these old repasts, thanked be Gods, are verie well left, and ech one (except here and there some young hungrie stomach that cannot fast till dinner time) contenteth himself with dinner and supper onlie. The nobil- itie, gentrie and students ordinarilie go to dinner at II before noon and to sup per at or between and 6 at after noon. The merchants dine and sup Sel-l dom before 12 at noon and at night, especialie in London. The husband men dine also at high noon and sup at or 8, but out of the tearme 1n oU universities the scholars dine at 10" :

 In lemon solored silk a Chinese dip lomat talked about Chinese laws.
 Some of our laws, you know, are very stimulating" he said For ex- ample, Chi owed money to a money lender. Chi would not pay, and the money lender hanged himself ol Chfs doorpost. Chi was condemned to death. You see, he was really responsible for the money lenders death.
 "A son able to support his parents Is imprisoned for life if he won't do SO. A son unable to support them is imprisoned for three years. as we hold and quite rightly-that there must be something wrong with young man who can't support his parents.
 "Our police are excellent, thanks to the stimulus of our law. When a crime is committed a sleuth is put upon the case and given, say, thirty days to land the criminal. If the sleuth fails he himself pays the pen alty of the crime, less two degrees. That, too, is a just and stimulating law. for if the police can neither pre- vent nor punish crime then they should be themselves punished for their rank incapacity.'-New York Press

Roomerana Kinks.

There are a good many 'fkinks" to be learned to throw the boomerang skill fully. One is always to throw against the wind if you want it to come back to you. It is a miniature aeroplane. for it literally sails against the wind and is borne. upward and onward by the breeze. If the player wants to make a long distance straightaway record he can throw with the wind, but he must take care to select a boomerang which is heavy-so heavy that 1t will not be too much affected by the air currents. By pointing the boomerang at certain angle he can make it soar aloft in circles like hawk until 1t may be as high as 100 feet above the earth. AS in golf play inge it is not so much mere strength that makes long thrower, but the skill in aiming, the direction and in boomerang throwing the way in which advantage may be taken of the air currents.-St. Nicholas.

Superstitious Remedies.

For whooping cough a cooked dor mouse is good. In the eighteenth cen tury this remedy was employed in Scotland. Here is another medicament for the same complaint: "Watercress is a very good thing, sir, with little bit of that brown sugar what you uses to put on to bacon and some honey mixed with it. And I'll tell you what's a good thing for croup but a riesty bacon fat fried down and afore it re- solves add some pepper and vinegar. It opens the pipes of the lungs, dye sec" And if you are adventurous you may try this for ''phlegm on to the chest" Catch a ''dear little dotty frog" and tie bit of string to one of its back legs. Then you keep on let ting it go down your throat and pull ing it up again." The narrator of this added to T. w. Thompson, who sets down these stories: ''It's the truth, young fellow, and it cleared the phlegm out of his throat bootiful, but we wouldn't do such a thing as that" London Chronicle.

A Purist.

Most persons believe Steyenson's verses for children may, without cor rection or amendment, safely be placed in the hands of the impressionable youngster without corrupting either his morals or his English. But there are some who think otherwise, says an exchange.
 Little Alice's mother, having taught the child to say, 'srime to rise,", in which .'the birdie with a yellow bilI' 7 figures, the child announced that she meant to recite it to her teacher.
 '.Well, and what did Miss Prim say to the birdie with a yellow biIl?'" ," asked Aliee's IAother when the little girl returned from school Q
 "She says it is quite a pretty thought But this is the way she makes me say it now, mamma:
 "A birdie with yellow bill
 Topped upon the window sill, Cooked his shining eye and said, Are you not ashamed, you sleepyheadT 7
 ''But that was not the way the birdie said it, Alice" the mother remon- strated.
 'sNo, mamma; I know But teacher says it isn't good English to say, .Ain't you 'shamed, you sleepy yhead?' "

Fixed Stars.

There are no fixed stars. When we look up at the stars they appear to be very stiI and peaceful, but astrono- mers know that suchs is not the case, but that each one is moving, some with incredible speed, invisible to the unaided eye, yet visible to the instru- ments at their disposal. Our sun, for instance, which is nothing more or less than one of the stars" supposed to be ''fixed.'' is moving along, with the entire solar system, toward a point in the constellation Hercules In na- ture, from the most insignificant germ to the largest world, everything is in perpetual motion.

Four Local Butchers Bringing Home Proof
 Of Visit to Chicago


 In order to prove to their friends in this city that they have really been to Chicago. attending the live stock show. G. D. Roberts, Charles Biltz. Rudolph Baumann and Mark Nagei who will return to Bridgeport tomor- row evening" will bring with them eight prize steers They will exhibit the steers in their local stores within the next fortnight.
 The purchase of the steers was not SO much a business venture as a pre- cautionary measure. The four Bridge porters realize that a number of their local friends might view their Chicago trip askance. They feared they would the Great White Way or elsewhere on pleasure bent, unless they brought the goods to show that they had been engaged on a business trip. In the minds of the east, a trip to Chicago, is associated with gloom, pungent stock yard odors, and other unpleasant features. Private advices to the Farmer indicate that the four butchers now returning homeward bear no indications of gloom about them. On the contrary, they appear SO care free that there is no suspi- cion of their having been on a bus inese trip.
 Just how the dealers intend to ex- hibit the prize steers they have not intlmated- Whether the steers are prize winners by virtue of their phy- sique or ancestry, or because of a higher grade of intelligence than is ordinarily found in the bovine is not known here. Should-the latter be the case. it is likely they will organize a winter circus

DENIES CHARGES.

Mrs. Wenger, who was mentioned
last. week in the Tribune as having a
fit OF sickness on the street, denies
that she has been sued for divorce
by her husband. No papers have been
served on her. He has threatened to
kill her, she claims, and refuses to
support her and will not help support
their four children. He is grad
uate Of the saltwater 2eni*entiary,
she claims, and has passed under
four different names in the places he
has lived. The unfortunate part of
the trouble is tina: the children are
being kicked about from one to the
other, as neither will assume their
support. The authorities may have
to take action to prevent their be.
