DUMAS AS A COOK.
His Friends Found Him Acting as Chef

His Friends Found Him Acting as Chef
In a TrouvilIe Inn.
The familiar story of the arrival of
the great Dumas at Trouville on May
afternoon in the thiTties is a cheerful
anecdote. Laughing loudly, he crossed
the Tongues carried on the shoulders
of a sturdy Norman peasant and en-
tered the primitive little inn of those
early days with nj! the clatter and ex-
element which usually distinguished
his movements
/, La Mere OSeraie. the good woman
who kept it, told him fatty that she re-
ceived none but painters. The Trou-
vile of those days was a tiny fishing
village which only a few artists had
discovered. Dumas promptly alleged
that he was painter in words" and
even offered to painter write-her
signboard, which the other cients-un-
grateful dogs-had promised. but neg
lected to do. This handsome though
confusing evidence of good faith mol
lifted the good innkeeper, and she con-
sented to receive Dumas at the amaz-
ing price Of francs day. tout com
pris. Trouvile was indeed then what
the French term I'm petit trou pas cher
"a little hole not deur."
When the painters, friends whom
Dumas had come to see in their remote
corner, returned toward evening from
the green woods and gades along the
little rivers valley they found the
amiabe giant filing the inn with bis
cries and laughter and brandishing a
great spoon In the kitchen, where he
was presiding personally over the prep
aration of an evening meal which
promised to run his bill for extras into
| figures hitherto unknown in Trouville.

q CapfuI of Wind.

The origin of the phrase "a cupfuI
OF wind" can be traced to a Morse
king, Eric VI, who died In 907 A. d.
He was credited with the useful power
OF directing the wind to blow where
he wished by the simple method Of
turning his cap to that point OF the
compass. His powers were much APP
preciated and trusted and resulted In
his being known as windy cap"
There is no evidence as TO whether he
could regulate the force Of the wind
as we'll as the direction. Presumably
he could, or his faithful believers
would not have been so many. A bag
full OF wind" Is another common ex'
preston and indicates something like
a gale This has been traced down TO
the classical legend OF AeOlus and his
captive winds confined in bags.
