DOGS HUNT THE TRUFFLES
How That Table peiieaey 10 Obtained
With Their Assistance
In France.

Truffles, like mushrooms, belong to
the family Of the fungi, but are a dis
tinct and very peculiar genus. They
are cryptogamic plants and subterran-
can. their position underneath the soil
varying from two to three inches to
two feet In depth.
They have no root, stem, or leaf.
and vary In color from light brown
to black. They are sometimes glob-
ular in form, and vary in size from
that Of a pecan to that Of a ducks
egg. Their surface Is watery and COW
cred with a skin. Their exact meth
cd Of growth Is not precisely known.
They are, of course, regarded as a
great luxury by the epicure.
Truffles are mentioned by Juvenal,
Pliny, Plutarch and Martial. The Ath-
enian epicures were acquainted with
them, and a story is told Of bon vi
want who freed a whole family of
slaves who had invented a delicious
method of preparing them.
France has the credit Of producing
the finest truffles. Dogs are common
ly bred to search for them.
The method Of breaking" these
dogs is to give them for a time pieces
of truffles every morning before they
are allowed to partake Of any other
food. After a certain period. when
their appetite for truffes increases,
pieces are hidden in the ground. and
they are made to find them. Thus
they are gradually taught their busi-
ness, though it often takes as long as
is months before dog becomes skill
ed in the art.
In some parts Of France-Poitou
and Perigold, for instance-pigs are
trained for truffle hunting, and by
some they are deemed to be better 1T
ted for the work than dogs.

There's a broad. easy sweep from

POOR CARE TAKEN OF SHOES

the poorest care of their shoes are the
ones who can least afford to get new
ones? It's a fact. though. Next time
you ride in the Subway when the car
isn't SO crowded you can see peoples
feet take look at the row of shoes.

no signs Of care since they came from

POOR OLD HUMAN NATURE
old-FashIoned Man Declares When
Motorists Are Masked No One
Can Recognize Them.

Human nature. at least as she is
depicted in humans. is being sadly
relegated to the background" remark
ed an old-fashioned man who has kept
his eyes opened for the last twenty
years.
"How so?" asked his young friend.
Look at yourself and ask that ques-
tion-if you can. You're a sight with
that cap, those goggles. that coat!
You and all other motorists. and all
these up-to-date persons who have ta-
ken to the flying machines. are no
more like human beings when you get
on your sporting raiment than II you
belonged to some queer species of ami
NAL. In the good old days of the
horse you drove out In your hats and
coats and your friends could recog-
nize you. Now you are masked worse
than burglars and no one knows one
OF you from another. Why-look at
the women on the streets even! They
don't look like the women God made.
They are painted and puffed and dis
torted by dress and those weird look
Ing scroll-like wells until the human
face and form are as unlike what ma
ture intended them to be as IL she
had had no hand in the matter at all.
/ am not peevish, but l can't help
standing up for the good old nature
that l love-" Whereupon the younger
man adjusted his goggles, drew down
the visor of his cap, cranked up his
machine and prepared to leave.

HOLD ENGLISH HIRING FAIR
Decorations Are Used by Farm Hands
to Distinguish Their Differ
ent CaliinQs


One Of the oldest Michaelmas hiring
fairs in England was held In the an.
Client market place Of High Wycombe.
Buckinghamshire, recently. From a
wide radius, including parts of the
three counties of Bucks. Berks and
Oxon. farmers and agricultural en-
ployes In all departments flocked into
the town early in the morning.
Harvesting having been finished, the
attendance was much larger than
usual, and there was q general dispo.
sition to change hands," though the
average terms Of remuneration show
ed very little alteration.
Several old time customs still pre-
vail, both at the hiring and In regard
to the conditions upon which farm
hands are engaged for the IL months.
For instance, plowmen decorate their
buttonholes with strings Of whipcord
to denote their distinctive calling;
shepherds display tufts of wool In
their caps and their forelocks, and 9TH
er farm hands utilize horsehair and
fancy ribbons and rosettes for their
personal adornment.
A good deal of time was occupied
In making the best terms" and In &C.
cordance with precedent of many
years standing the engagements were
conditional on the supplying Of beer"
or harvesting allowance" as 1t Is
called. The old fashioned custom Of
hiring servants in this way enlisted
a good deal Of public interest. The
pleasure fair, relegated from the
streets 20 a spacious enclosure in the
town, attracted thousands, and It will
be continued as usual for three days.
