EXPENSIVE DINING.
Prices Soar Sky High at the Hotel des
Roches Noires,

nOC1lGS NOTES..
Trouville is in the season one Of the
most expensive spots in Europe. 1t
contains what is assuredly one of the
most expensive hotels in Europe. The
individual who takes his wife and fam
lily to the Hotel DIES Roches Noires for,
say, a month in the high season and
does them really well-that is. gives
them the best which the house has to
ofer-when he comes away-if he has
paid his bill-has left a small fortune
behind him.
The idea that an Englishman be-
cause he is being charged a high price
is being cheated is absurd. Nowadays
whatever it used to be once upon a
time-an E~nglishman in a really smart
hotel in France is looked at askance.
French people on pleasure bent are
much more extrayagant than we are.
They do not seem to care what they
spend.
I remember dining once at Trouville
when a basket of %nectarines was offer
ed by the head waiter. They were
quite nice nectarines, but that head
waiter wanted 25 francs apiece. Five
dollars for two, or three mouthfuls
seemed to me too much, but those nee
tarines all went. There was scarcely
a Frenchman in the room who did not
treat himself to one. At the next table
to mine was a a with his wife and
his daughter. They had three apiece,
$40 for dessert as a windup to an ex-
tremely expensive dinner! - Richard
Marsh in Strand Magazine.

NITROGEN is A LOAFER.
This Gas Is Too Lazy to Do a Thing
Except "Beinq Around"

Nitrogen in its normal condition-aS
it occurs in the air we breathe, of
which it forms over IS per CENTS a
singularly lazy member of the family
of elements. The average human loaf
er is ambitious by contrast. He will
at least whittle q stick by way of oc-
cupation and scramble up with some
alacrity If asked to "have something"
Nitrogen gas just puts in its time
being around" And it doesn't do
anything else. No ordinary stimulus
can stir it to action. We breathe in
gallons of it every day, but we breathe
it all out again absolutely unchanged
except that it is Il little warmer. And
this despite the fact that the body has
to have a regular supply of nitrogen
and that we spend much money on ex-
pensive food to get it.
In the outer world. too, elements of
all sorts go wandering by, and nitro
gen sits like a dummy uninterested
and quite unresponsive to any ad-
vances they may make. 10 be sure,
a few years ago the industrial chem
ISIS succeeded, by using powerful cleo
trio currents. in waking up the atmos-
pheric nitrogen. and now there are
several large factories in which nitro
gen activated in this way is being
turned into explosives and fertilizers.
But in the laboratory and on the street
it has continued to be the inert ele-
ment par excellence.
In view of the very important part
that nitrogen combined plays in the
world. chemists, with the necessary
idealism to make them great. have
long suspected that if just the right
conditions could be provided this in
difference of nitrogen to its fellow ele-
ments would disappear.-New York

LIFE IN ICELAND.
1t Is Not the Crude Existence Tina,
'"" Many People Imaoine.

- SSH'S t"ioShtCs
Most people think Of the ~Icelanders
as being like Eskimos, Il crude. unen-
llsltened people. looking more like
ANIMALS than people and living in
SNOW nuts. dressed in furs, whereas
the lcelanders are handsome. cultured
people. highly educated. With fair faces
ana brilliant eyes and Il very dainty
iashlon OF dressing. They live in neat.
charming houses, have beautiful flower
gardens and never wear furs. for the
reason tina it is never bitterly cold in
Iceland on account of the gulf stream
washing its shores.
AS to their diet. it is somewhat
wanting in variety on account of the
lack of many food staples. but all their
dishes have Il certain odd richness that
Is very delicious to Il stranger. 1t is
largely because of the amount of oil
they use. They cook many things in
OLA clear. sweet fish Oil. though sub
shutting olive Oil makes the dishes
quite as tempting. They try to use
their native products, as everything
else has to come so far and the steam
ers call only once in ten days from
England and Denmark. and the import
ed goods are expensive for Icelanders,
who are not very we'll off. though new
err poor.
Their W products are fish in vast
quantities: lamb. the chief meat: eggs.
wild ducks. sleeps milk, cheese and
butter; turnips. of which they raise
and eat more than of any other vege-
table; potatoes. onions and beets.
beans and occasionally peas; spinach.
cabbage and Brussels sprouts; no fruit
to speak of and rarely any beef-it is
imported from Denmark and Scotland.
Pork is rarely eaten and then in the
form of imported bacon.
But out of this meager list of staples
they evolve some truly delicious dish
es, for the island people are all good
cooks and have q native knack that is
like the French. They can make my
thing they cook taste good, no matter
what the ingredients may be.-London

Which was built in 1854. It's parish

hardware was also imported.
There is no chancel at all in the
