HE DIDN'T LIKE DRIPPING.
And No Wonder, After He Had Road
About Its Strength.

What is dripping?
Everybody knows that dripping is
supposed to be the juices. the savory
essences, that fall from roasting meats
That is the supposition But what
really is dripping-the dripping that
the poor of England buy by the pound
and smear upon their bread in lieu Of
butter!
The question perhaps will never be
answered. but u partial solution is
given to it by the fact that London
poorhouse recently bought at 81 a ton
thirty-two tons of dripping from-a
soap works.
Alfred Noyes used to tell dripping
story.
"A little boy" he would begin. com
planned bitterly about the bread and
dripping that formed his daily break
fast.
It'll kill me. he whined at last I
know it'll kill me-
XIII you? What do you mean?
why, I've been feeling pretty bad
lately. and now | know it's all this
dripping what's the cause of the trou-
BILE read it in IL book
"'Some pure food rubbish. dare
say! And what. precisely, did you
read in this vile book, si;iy?'

constant dripping wears away a

REBUKE BY SARCASM.
About tho Poorest Place to Use II 10 In
the Classroom.

the Classroom.
In a well known Boston school there
was boy conspicuously dull at bis
Latin. He was a STRAIGHTFORWARD fell
low and a gentleman by birth and
breeding, but he was bungler at syn
tax.
One morning he had tangled himself
In a simple phrase. The teacher asked
question that should have cleared
him. But the poor lad did not know
the answer.
Then the teacher leaned back In his
chair. rolled his gray eyes to the cell
ing and said for all the class to hear.
Il have been told that it is hard
thing to stuff a wildcat with butter,
particularly II you have to do it with
hot awl. but that is child'S play
compared with putting Latin in boy
like this"
OF course the laugh came. but as the
boys laughed they despised the teach
err
Sarcasm" said Carlyle "is the Ian
guage Of the devil" Be that as 1t
may. it has turned many a schoolroom
into a place of torment.
A boy may be too dull to be in school.
but while allowed to be there he can
never be dull enough to justify knife
thrust from one whose first duty is to
help and cheer him-Boston Herald

OYSTERS AND DYSPEPTICS.
When the BivaIves May and When
They Should Not Be Eaten.

When the BivaIves May and When
They Should Not Be Eaten.
1t is popularity supposed that the
oyster digests himself in the human
stomach owing to the great size of the
liver. which is crushed as masticaton
begins and is thought to digest the
mollusk itself. AS the oyster. more
over, contains some 10 per cent of ex-
tremely assimilable protein. together
with phosphorized fats and glycogen.
it has always been freely administered
to conyalescents, while dyspeptic bons
wants have never hesitated to eat it
abundantly.
Dr. Prom expresses the opinion that
the oyster may be allowed. therefore.
to those dyspeptics whose gastric func-
items are deficient, in anorexia. gastric
atony, ulcer and incipient cancer. and
to cOnvalescents from acute disease. as
it is likely to improve the appetite and
to excite the stomach to increased
motor and chemical activity.
But to the large number Of dyspep-
tics whose stomachs are hyperacid or
representative Dr. Prom would forbid
the oyster as well as all other stimu-
lating foods, In many Of these dys-
peptics the gastric secretion is already
sufficient, and 1t is unnecessary and
unwise to increase it - New York
