 TRIUklPHS OF CULINARY ART

Who put the bologna in sausage ? Who put the charlotte in charlotte russe2 Or the chow in clam chow der? Or the dump in dumping, or but what's the use-who invented our food terms, anyway?
 Probably every nation has contrib uted to the Americans food vocabu- lary. Some have added graceful psmes like tutti-frutd or fricassec. Others have fiile6 the dictionary with less attractive bolognas and dumplings. From England, France and Italy, Mexico, Portugal and China the things we eat received their names.
 Take bologna, for instance. As a food article sausage dates back to the time when Lucullus celebrated its virtues in song, and to the Romans belong the credit of introducing saul sages among the GaulS at the time of their invasion of Gaul. However, the famous town of Bologna, In sun ny Italy, Is famous in the annals of culinary history as the birthplace of the modern bologna. Italians, who call this almost national dish the "Satsiccia di Bologna" look upon It as a spicy morseI Peasants make bolognas on a wholesale scale for family use They like 1t heavily fla vored with garlic and smoked, and often forego any further cooking.

VACATION LETTERS.-"Ther arc several men in the office where I am employed, who want me to write them letters while I am on my va cation. Is 1t according to the accept ed rules of propriety for me to do so? They are just ordinary friends" :"
 (Answer) Do not write them per sonal letters as individuals. You might with propriety send them a friendly letter addressed to them all as group. But if you wish to com municate with them separately, as in dividuals, do not send them anything more private than a postal card.

Assistant.

Isaac Barnes and his wife are
now in the city jail, and Mrs. Anna
Harris as well as being in Jail, is
wearing the black and blue marks
as the result of her encounter with
Barnes yesterday.
The argument started over the
refusal of Mrs Harris TO beg any
more on the streets for Barnes.
The three were arrested Yesterday
afternoon at 5O1 Twentieth street,
where Barnes and his wife and
Mrs. Harris were all living in one
room.
Barnes is the self-uamed leader
OF the Christian Volunteers and
was until a week ago operating in
Davenport. when the Iowa police
decided he had better leave town
and since then he has been living
in Rock Island.
Mrs Harris, who lives in Gales
burg, became interested in the well

Davenport 10 solicit for the church,
where she met Barnes. She claims
that Barnes forced her 20 beg and
then turn the money over to him,
and would beat her if she failed TO
answer his questions on their self
chosen religion.
The climax 10 the affair came
Yesterday when Mrs. Harris be-
came home sick and refused to beg
any more. Barnes started to beat
her up she told the police.
Mrs Harris is IS years old and
married. Her husband is in Ar

send her back to her home in
