A Costly Kitchen.

A pawnbroker would not advance
very much on the kitchen utensils Of
even the wealthiest householders in
the United Kingdom; but should the
shah Of Persia desire to pledge his
kitchen requisites he might realize
half a million pounds. Every sauce
pan of this monarch is gilded inside,
and the dishes which appear on the
table are Of solid gold, as well as the
spoons, knives and forks. The ham
dies of the latter, moreover, are or
namented with costly stones, and
some are worth as much as f100 each.
In preparing lunch for the shah
none but silver spoons can be used,
and any covering used for keeping
cold meats must also be Of silver.
His majesty has a staff of over
thirty chefs, and altogether those en-,
ployed in his kitchen number nearly
120. Their wages amount to $500 a
week.-Tit Bits.

AMBER FOR WOUNDS

The Germans fire weapon has evoked a new method of healing the burns caused The method was evolved by a French physician. Dr. Barthe, but its reception by his col leagues was sufficiently cool almost to damp his ardor. But his technique was explained and demonstrated to M. Lansien, deputy fer Finistere. and was by him brought to the notice of M. Justin Godart the French minister who is charged with the care of the wounded.
