The black Cayuga is distinctly an
American duck, having been bred sc

Potato and Onion Salad.

Pare and cut potatoes into thin
slices, parboil until done but not
washed. Drain and pour on a shallow
dish. Now take centers OF boiled
onion rings, mash with fork. add n
sitting of salt and pepper, then mix
with enough boiled dressing to make
n smooth, rather thick emulsion. Sift
salt and pepper over the potatoes,
then cover with the dressing and let
1t stand for an hour to ripen. This is
nice luncheon dish and can be
served with rings of hard boiled eggs,
cured bacon or boiled ham.

New Patron Saint.

Polar explorers now have their pa

topher, whose medallion, presented by
Queen Alexandra OF England, is affixed
to the Endurance Not long ago the
equally modern profession of short

They fixed upon st. Genest, who suf-
fered martyrdom for refusing to tran
scribe an imperial decree. That is
an odd reason, but not more odd than
many which have weighed in other
transactions of the kind. The pa
tron saint of skaters is st. Ludwina,
who fell on the ice and sustained in
juries which she bore with exemplary
patience, and st. Cyril was long re-
garded as the patron of Slavs on the
ground that he was "the apostle Of

Digestion During Sleep.

Digestion goes on effectively during
sleep. The evening meal is digested
during the night. The midday meal,
especially when it is heavy, causes
drowsiness in some persons. The
proof that digestion is active in the
night is the fact that waste is gen.
orally accumulated in the morning.
Furthermore, in the case Of persons
who have died during the night, the
autopsy shows that digestion is fur
ther advanced the longer the period
intervening between the last meal and
death; from this fact the probable
time of death has been indicated at
coroner's inquests.
