The word ''hog1s'' Ia said by Dr.. Ogil-
vie to be derived from Boghese. the
name Of notorious American Swindler
who about. the year 1895 flooded the
western and southwestern states with
counterfeit bills, sham mortgages. etc.
Others connect the word with ''bogy," a
scnrecrow or goblin. and no applied to
anything fictitious or chimericnl.
Lowell in the "Biglow Papers" says:
II more than suspect the word to be n
corruption Of the French bogAsse."
This bogasse was the sugar cane n
delivered in Its dry. crushed state from
the mill. also called can trash and fit
only for burning. being synonymous
with useless rubbish.
Again, according to Brewer. there b

A gourmet as he mixed salad Of
chicory said: THE worlds queerest
salad. and possibly its most delicious
one, Us eaten by the Inoits Of northwest
Greenland. 1t II salad Of undigested
moss from the stomach Of fresh
killed reindeer. bitter, sharp. slim
ulnting salad. as good for the diges-
ton M an electrical massage. The
Inoits live almost exclusively on fish;
hence salads are a favorite dish with
them. But no salad in their minds
compares with that which they wrest
from the slaughtered reindeer. They
say this salad Is crisper. tenderer and
more nppetizing than any other, and
they say It wards OF indigestion. They
fight for 1t, they spend their last penny
on II. quite as the Indians do with

Mys..ry Of a Cookbook.

Somebody mentioned cookbooks. '
'-ft takes a good deal to make me
wonder" said the publisher. but
received Jolt in the culinary line the
other day that set me thinking. In
looking over the manuscript Of cook
book that had been submitted for our
approval was struck by this intro
duction to many Of the recipes. Good
for boarding house table
Now, why that Discrimination
Isn't anything nhat is good enough for
q boarding house table good enough
for any other table. and isn't anything
that is good enough for any other ta-
BILE good enough for boarding house
table? Judging by the way those par
ticular recipes read, they may result
In some rather tasty dishes. Then
why limit them to boarding houses7''
