accentuation, resemble in flavor the ordinary
field mushroom. Then there the "hydnons'
which very common under beech trees at
this season Of the year. The commonest of them.
the Rydnum repaEdum, has q strikingly at
tractive color in fact. one might take it for
freshly baked cracker nesting in the moss. In
stead Of gills under the hat it has little needle
like, flesh -coored points which carry the spores
and are its distinguishing Characteristic. Simply
cooked in butter, it makes, with its rich sauce,
perfect accompaniment to boiled brill or tur-
bot. Its big brother the Hydnum imbricatum,
which when you catch sight of it at the foot
of beech tree, You might take for a slumbering
tabby cat. owing TO the dark scales which dapple
its brown, hunched top, seems to concentrate in
its peculiar flavor all the odors and essences Of
the autumnal forest. 1t is a meal, and a royal
meal in itself. The ColIybia fusipes. coppery
colored, with long, tortuous tail, grows in huge

tufts in dark coppices, and also has taste re-
calling the aromatic perfume of autumn leaves
Then there is the Laccaria laccata, Of brilliant
violet and purple hue. which is just now making
the forest glades look as if they had been strewn
with amethysts and sapphres. 1t is one OF the
most delicious of wild mushrooms. and is equally
good stewed in butter or picked in vinegar and
eaten with cold beef or cold roast hare. The
whole family of ''clavarias," which are like
clusters of branching coral, pink purple, yellow
or white are also of delicate flavor, whether
plainly cooked or preserved as pickles
Altogether, it is easy to become acquainted
with and distinguish from one another about
fifty kinds of edible mushrooms, especially if
one bears in mind. as Professor Noel is careful
to point out to his eagerly attentive audiences,
that it is only among the "agarics'-that is to
say the mushrooms whose tops are in the shape
of a wheel-that really deadly specimens occur.
Three or four kinds of the amanita species Of
agaric are invariably fatal to those who are
ignorant enough to eat them.

The mushroom. however. Is. on the WHOLE a
benefcent and man-loving denizen Of the vege-
table world. It's cellular composition bears
closer resemblance to animal flesh than that OF
any other tissue in existence In connection
with this fact may be mentioned the Fistulina
hypatica. which is universally called the beef
steak mushroom for. though it grows on de-
caying trees. it is like beefsteak in both taste

identically the same chemical composition as its

been made in that difficult but fascinating de-
partment Of botanical research which may be
classified under the head OF vegetable psychol-
Ogy show that il is essential to the mushroom
for the reproduction Of it's species that the hat
part of it, containing the spores, should attract
and be eaten by various animals. such as rab-
bits, mice and sugs, which spread about it's spores
