Tho Word "Picnio,"

Few people know the original mean
ing of the word picnic" 1t is to be
found set out in the London Times Of
a hundred years ago: "A picnic sup
per consists Of a variety of dishes.
The subscribers to this entertainment
have bill of fare presented to them,
with number against each dish. The
lot which he draws obliges him to fur
nish the dish marked against 1t. which
he either takes with him in his car
rage or sends by servant. The
proper variety is preserved by the tai
onts of the maitre d'hote]. who forms
the bill of fare. As the cookery u
furnished by so many people Of fash
Ion, each strives to excel, and thus .
picnic supper not only gives rise to
much pleasant mirth, but generally can
boast of the refinement Of the art."

In the sacred hooks of the Scandi

In France it was equally common.

sixteenth century there was a particu.
lar disease said to be caused by the
quantity of pork eaten In Hungary.
and even at present the barbarous
Lettes are passionately fond of it. In

dined on bacon. Of which he ate SO

where else were advised to give up the

r.
The popular Star theater win show
a Thanhouser picture drama tomor-
row known as Regeneration, in
which a rich man who finds that
there is nothing in life worth living
for. is worse on than Is poor man
in similar CIRCUMSTANCES, for the
poor man may be stricken with ann
bstion, and in a last effort to attain
fame and fortune. redeems himself.
But what is man to do If he has
wealth. health, all the fame he de-
slres. and vet lools at life through
blue spectacles?
A man Of this stamp is yawnlng
out an utterly purposeless existence.
He is comparatively young. There
are no business cares TO vex. him; he
has money enough to insure comfort,
and yet he is thoroughly unhappy.
He visits "a winter resort. down
South, not for the ,beneft Of his
health. He has no chums there, his
friends simply endure him, and he
lis as thoroughly unhappy as ne had
been in Europe or in the North.
Perhaps some kind fairy took pity
upon him, and induced him to go out
rowing all alone, for he lost his oars
and drifted about aimlessly all night,
believing that his last hour had come.
The good fairy so directed the boat
that in the morning, when the rich
man was unconscious from thirst,
hunger and exhaustion, the tiny craft
drifted near a lighthouse. The keep
er's daughter saw the boat, swan out
and guided 1t ashore at considerable
risk to herself, and with the aid Of
her. father restored the rich man 10
consciousness,
His benefactors did not know that
their unfortunate guest was a rich
man. They regarded him as one Of
themselves, and the keeper, regard
ing him with favor, finally offered
him job as his assistant, which he
whimsically accepted.
He finds his new life so different
from the old, one that he positively
enjoys living. He forgets his old
