FLOWERS AS FOOD.
Bn India the Natives Eat 6assia Tree
Blossoms Knocked.

sn India the Natives Eat 6assia Tree
Blossoms Unlocked.
In these days one would hardly call
a dinner Of rosebuds q feast. nor
should we be inclined to accept an in
vitation to dine on the blossoms Of the
pumpkin vine. Yet some Indians, like
the old Aztecs. used to esteem these
flowers, when properly prepared, a
great dainty.
So. in the same way, do natives of
many parts of India depend for food
upon the blossoms of the bassia tree.
They do not need even to cook the
flowers, but make q good meal of them
raw. These blossoms are described as
sweet and sickly in odor and taste.
They are sometimes dried in the sun,
when they are kept and sold in ba'
zaars as regular article Of diet.
The trees are so highly esteemed that
the threat of cutting down their bassia
trees will generally bring an unruly
tribe to terms. This Is perhaps not to
be wondered at when it is considered
that a single tree will yield from 200
to 400 pounds Of flowers. The Parsees
cook the flowers and also make sweet
meats of them.
Nobody would be inclined to deny
that smoked fish and smoked meat are
agreeable varieties in our bill Of fare,
but few. perhaps, would feel ready to
plead guilty to a taste for smoked flow
ers And yet. when we give to the
Glove its well earned place among fla
workings we are making use of
smoked flower bud. The buds grow on
a small evergreen and are plucked
from the ends Of the branches before
they expand. Then they are dried in
the sun and smoked over wood fire
to give them the brown color.-Phila'

MINISTER'S PREFER
THE OLD "DOBBIN''

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov 5.-Excessive
joy riding is slowly sapping the pros
perity of the church and causing
dearth of spiritual enthusiasm, &C
cording to the report of the Rev. r.
B. Marsh in the annual Methodist
Episcopal conference now in session
here.
Nevertheless the automobile found
some able defenders among the
clergymen who insisted that it is not
only a mark of prosperity but that it
has a tendency to increase church at
tendance. Only excessive riding on
the Sabbath, they claimed could be
made a subject of criticism.
