fried and curled around bamboo splints, which
hangs like a fringe along the length of line.
The pans contain imported shrimp, shelled
and sugar cured, shelled and dried, or simply
sailed in the shell. Several kegs of odd
Chinese workmanship usually stand against the
wall and contain the so-called dragons blood,
the sauce continent which is used to flavor
many of the Chinese dishes 1t is the Chinese
Worcestershire sauce.
Chinese rice wine fills some of the kegs, while
sweet and sour pickles fill others.
PIGS AND CHICKENS IN CHINATOWN.
The pig surely comes into its own in the
Chinese market, for it is the meat par excel
lence One, roasted whole, hangs in every
shop; pieces of the porker are cut to suit the
purchasers, and when used it is replaced at
once by fresh one from the meat bakery just
around the corner On the chopping blocks
there is supply Of fresh pork products the
year around These sell at the lowest market
prices.
There is generally crate of chickens some
where about, in the cellar or back yard, for the
more extravagant buyers, and herein lies
gamble for the inexperienced. The Chinese,
DtlHR Il pIuucHJ SUI VI PcOpiC, ic"SVii 'A"o a.
a chicken shows less vgor than its mates, or
impending illness seems about to overtake it,
it should be killed first to prevent the loss,
the argument being: Chicken die 'byme'bye
anyhow, so kill now" If the marketer is in
tending to buy chicken let her demand live
selection and an execution in sight.
This need not prejudice people against buy
ing in Chinatown, for cleanliness prevails
among foodstuffs. If the purchaser uses care
in selection and lets it be well understood
that ''the chow must be very good and clean"
she will have no difficulty.
SOME CHINESE CONDIMENTS.
A great deal of horseradish is used by
Chinese cooks and large quantities of it are
sold by the shops. Green peppers, garlic and
turnips are very popular; ginger root is pre-
pared in numerous ways, and takes the place
of pepper in many Chinese dishes. The sweets
nay be summed up in a word: they are few in
number Sticks of sugar cane, rice cakes and
rice candy, seaweed cakes, preserved, sugared
and dried fruits, ginger and flag root complete
the list The one cake flavoring consists of
some odd little sweet-tasting seeds for which
there seems to be no good American name.
