MUSHROOM FALLACIEs.

Mushroom poisoning seems to be an
inevitable accompaniment of the sum-
mer season. There is a popular ten
dency to restrict the name 'toadstoof'
to poisonous species of these fungi of
the fields and woods and that of
mushroom to the edible ones; but
since one cannot tell, except by trial,
whether a particular "toadstoof' is
poisonous or not, the distinction, ac-
cording to The Journal of the Ameri
can Medical Association, is neither
satisfactory nor advantageous.
Many reputed tests to distinguish the
innocent from the harmful are cur
rent and are implicitly believed in by
some 1t cannot be too emphatically
stated, therefore, that so far as is
known there is no single guide, with
the possible exception of a chemical
analysis. which will give results of any
value whatever. Any scheme for dis
tinguishing edibility in these fungi
should be decisive and give uniform
results. Some of the alleged tests de-
serve mention in order to point out
their unreliability and their danger.
Among them the so-called silver
test is most prevalent. 1t is believed
that a silver spoon or coin placed with
toadstools while cooking will demon
strate by blackening, or failure to
blacken, whether or not the fungi are
safe to eat. 1t need only be said that
there are both poisonous and nontoXic
species which act alike on silver.
Again, no reliance is to be placed on
the contention that if the outer Cup
PERI skin of the top of the toadstool
peels off readily, such a species is
edible. Some poisonous species also
will peel" Flavor has often been al
legged to serve as a reliable guide to
edibility, the bitter or peppery species
being charged with detrimental attri-
butes. Experience shows, however,

Then all4th others sighed. Then the
minister asked:
Has any one a suggestion to
makee"
When he had waited a proper time
for response, and none had come, he
said with Frightening face:
81 have. You all noticed that he
did not announce that he and Miss
Thorpe We're engaged He did not
affirm that she loved him.
That's so,'' came chorus.
There is our one ray of hope. You
ladies must visit her and appeal to
her sentiment. You can also suggest
that place can be found for her to
go to China as missionary"
When the committee made it's call
nothing was said about the will. They
thought 'twou1d be better thus. The
talk was all about the Chinese heath
en- and how nice it was to snatch their
souls from the burning and assure
them of an American heaven when
they died. They found the girl an
interested listener. She said she had
always wanted to go to China to see
If black tea grew on black bushes
and to satisfy herself whether the
Chinese at home had the same squint
as the laundrymen had over here. 1t
was understood before the committee
left that the minister was to make ap-
plication to the board of foreign mis-
sions and that there was every chance
OF MS De1ng successful. A pretty
broad hint was dropped that no girl
in love could hope to be taken, and
on their way home Mrs. Roder ex-
claimed:
She'll go to China and Well get
that money as sure as shooting! All
we have to do is to keep quiet about
things
They kept quiet
So did young Abernethy.
So did Grandpa King.
In the course of a few weeks the
minister called on Miss Bessie and
there was triumphant smile on his
face.
Miss Thorpe, how soon can you
get ready to sail for China"
Just as soon as my husband cam"
was the knockout reply.

And next day Grandpa King sent
for the young husband and tossed
him a package of $4,000 and said:

they did. My daughter may get some
thing some day, but it's not a cent

that the most poisonous toadStoolS are
not at all disagreed BILE in respect to
the flavor of the raw tissues. Other
tests are the alleged telltale color
changes that are supposed to appear
when toxic mushrooms are bruised
or broken; or the existence of milky
juice, or the susceptibility of the
fungi to the invasion of insects, which
are believed to avoid the pernicious
varieties. None of these tests can
be applied with any certainty. AS the
proof of the pudding is in the eating
thereof so the surest way of learn
ing to distinguish the poisonous from
the innocuous mushrooms Is by eating
them-a heroic procedure-or by

before, even the most nutritious mush-

when many Americans insisted that
the finest quality of black walnut was
not less beautiful than mahogany or
rosewood. There is always room
for divergence of opinion upon such
questions, but nobody can deny that
black walnut is Il beautiful furniture
wood, though there are few in these
days to do it honor in it's own coun-
try. The reason may be that at the
time walnut was in most general use
the art of furniture making in this
country was at its lowest ebb. 1t was
a period when the jig saw did its
worst and the turning lathe was an
implement for the destruction OF

EVENING CHAT
Calamity HOwIerS.
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Breaking bad news is generally supposed
to be most unpleasant job but there are
some people who do not seem to find it
so.
On the contrary they apparently take
great pleasure in breaking all the bits
of bad news they can find to the people
whom they concern.
For instance, a little friend Of mine was
asked to attend commencement this spring
by a college man she much admires. 1t
was the first attention he had paid her
and she was most anxious to look her best.
She has an elusive kind of prettineSs
which is extremely dependent on CON
dftfonS and she knows it. On the great
day we met her on the college campus.
Her excessive anxiety to look well had
defeated itself. She did not look as pref
ty as usual. My companion who was a
relative of the girl and SO entitled to a
relatives privileges, eyed her critically.
Your gown is lovely" she said finally,
but why didn't you wear your other hat?
It's much more becoming
Imagine saying such a thing when you
didn't have to and couldn't accomplish a
of that girls face in instant, taking
still more of her attractiveness with it.
For myself I could have cried. But my
companion didn't seem to mind it at all.
Apparently she thought she had per-
formed a duty, and a pleasant duty at
that.
The other day I bought a long desired
rain coat. l was showing it to some
friends. Where did you get it?'' asked
one of them. I told her. you did? Well,
you might as we'll have thrown your
money out the window" she informed me
with that cheerful resignation we keep
for other peoples troubles. THE one
bought there wore out in a few weeks
and L know several people who had the
same experience
Needless to say, my raincoat is spoiled
for me. ! scarcely dare wear it for fear
of seeing it go to pieces.
Again, a neighbor of mine has a dear
old mother whose sight is failing. They
have a first class specialist and hope to
arrest the trouble. and my neighbor is
trying to be optimistic about it and to
think she some Improvement. The
other day L found her the verge of
tears. Mrs NJ has been in here" she
explained, land she says she thinks
mother is lot worse. and several people
have told her the same thing
A queer thing about these calamity
howlers is that they are always most
avid to break bad news to their dearest
friends. Apparently they think they are
showing their devotion by doing.
They make great mistake. Friendship
and frankness should go hand in hand,
but only the frankness that helps. not
the kind that causes needless suffering.
A true friend is one who will always tell
you unpleasant truths when by doing
he can help you, but will always keep I'M
pleasant truths to himself when it won t
do you any good to know them.
