ENGLISH HELD MANY FEAsTs
Oyster Festival, White Bait Dinner
Fish Pie and Sausage Repasts,
Among Former Celebrations.

There is scarcely an old city Or vii
lage in England that formerly did not
have an annual banquet of some sort,
designed to advertise the particular
products for which the place is fam
Gus, observes correspondent. Col
chester had it's annual oyster feast,
which was given every October, uSu-
ally at the beginning Of the month.
But that was q comparatively modern
festival. Much more ancient was the
yearly white bait dinner at Greenwich,
which at one time was almost as great
social event as the dinner given by
the lord mayor of London.
The fish pie dinner at Confession,
near Yarmouth, had as It's guests each
year IS fishermen, with the vicar at
the head of the table. The number at
the table was strictly limited to IS,
except the vicar, and was never more
or less. AT Yarmouth, the home Of
the far-famed Yarmouth bloater, the.
annual herring dinner was quite an.
event. The menu consisted entirely of
herring of all ages from infant sprats
to grandfather herring, prepared in
many different ways. PeterbOrOugh'S
sausage dinner was given every year
by the mayor and corporation of the
town, and every variety of sausage
known was served to the guests. An
other famous 'feed" was the venisOn
dinner given at Farnham by the bishop
of Winchester.

BIG WATERFALL IN ICELAND
Dettifoss Most Striking, Larger Than
Any in Europe-Scenic Wonder Of
the Friaid Country.

DettifoSS, by far the most striking
Of the Iceland waterfalls, and larger
than any In Europe, is well worth a
visit, but it involves some very long
rides. The writer, says the Christian
Science Monitor, starting from the
northern part of Husavik, took over
two days to reach it, stopping at night
at two farmhouses on the way, and
making a detour to see the wonderful
volcanic valley of Ashbyrgl. The jour-
ney westward to Myvatn from the fall
over desert land, occupied about ten
hours.
The fall lies on the Jokullsa, gla-
cial river that rises in the Vatnaio-
kull range in the south, and flowing
northward, falls into the Arctic sea.
Parallel to the river lies a deep rift
like dried-up river bed; and this has
to be crossed before the traveller can
stand on the brink of the chasm where
the river takes its leap 200 feet down.
There is a curious crack in mid-stream
and over it the sundered waters are
hurled in wild confusion, again min
Cling and losing themselves in clouds
of spray. The columnar basalt on the
far side can be discerned through the
mist, every pillar tipped with moss,
while the near side is also green and
velvety. The walls of the ravine be-
ing perpendicular to descend is inn
possible, and the binding spray pre-
vents long stay near the fall. which
is best seen at point lower down
tine river. The upper fall, quarter
of an hours walk higher up, with tlf-
teen feet of drop, seems mere cas-
cade after the principal one.
The whole region bears witness to
the "strife OF nature" On the far
side of the river stretches desert
marked with dull red cinder heaps,
and craterevents like huge black carl
drons, snow-capped hills closing in the.
weird landscape. From the cayernous
depths in the foreground rises the
ceaseless moan of the waterfall, SO re-
mote from human habitation, and inn
pressive in it's loneliness.

Filipino Working Girl.

At Bokod a Filipino girl with two
years training can earn % cents q
day weaving pillow covers, table rum
ners, or dress material, says the Chris
tan Herald. The food she eats costs
5 cents day. She not only earns
money for herself and family in addi-
ton to taking complete academic
course, but one-half the proceeds from
her labor, turned into the school fund,
has already provided the school with
a fine monograph, good collection OF
records, and the instruments for ten
piece stringed orchestra, which turns
out music that would compare we'll
with the best that graduates from a
New England finishing school could do.

First Use of Jindo.

George Jacob Holyoake, the apostle
Of cooperation, was the first to make,
use of the nickname lingo in refer
ence to wrong kind of patriotism in.
letter which he wrote about the Dis
raelian Chauvinists in 1878, observes
the Argonaut. Nobody yet knows for
certain where the word came from, or
what was it's original meaning. Mot
teux, in his seventeenth century trans
lation of Rabelais, gave par Dieu" as
''by Jingo;" it is some peoples opin-
ion that lingo is the Basque for God,
and that the word made its way into
the English language through the
medium OF Basque sailors.

Dry. Hot Atmosnhere.

Dryness combined with high temper
allure Is commonly deemed injurious,
notes an exchange. This is the COM
bination found in desert climates and
in many artifcially heated dwellings
in northern climates in winter. The
dry, hot atmosphere induces restless
drying and irritation Of the skin and
mucous membranes. Susceptibility to
colds is said to be increased in indoor
dwellers in hot, dry atmosphere, al
though similar effect does not seem
to be associated with the aridity OF
desert climates.
