latest big dictionary, Webster's
New international, his wife and
the cook-but they can give no

variation upon this famous COM
estible mystery commonly called
''hash", whether concocted with
in the sacred precincts Of the
home kitchen or in the often
frowsy, sloppy quarters where
grub is manufactured wholesale,
to-wit, in city restaurants.
He has in the course of that
varied experience made divers
curious, not to say exhasperating
discoveries, as for example when
about half way through the dis
cussion of a particularly choice
mess of hash, he finds a lovely
female tress that unquestionably
matches the cooks auburn locks
but which alas! was cooked too
much to serve any sentimental
uses, though not quite enough to
pass muster for food. Again, he
has found himself vainly pracSic-
ing Fletcherism upon what
proves to be a fragment of her
dishclout that somehow got
smuggled in along with the A
other odds and ends that compose
the aforesaid hash. His grind
ers have now and then lighted
on sundry bits of hardware, such
as nails, chips of bone, stray
collar buttons and the like. He
has indeed often marveled at the
unfathomable mystery of its pro-
team composition, but never has
he heard of "fog-hash" till this
Hungarian elbow out" brought
into the limelight this new kind
of hash.
1t is q timely recipe. In this
