TURNING AWAY FROM MEAT
In New York Big Hotels Meals Entire
Iy of Vegetables Are Increasing
in Popularity

According to the New York Times
the diners of the American metropolis
are becoming vegetarians. Approx
mately one-seventh TO one-ffth of the
guests at the hotels here today are or
derlng vegetables for their meals In
stead ot meats All of the big hotels
keep very careful record of the sales
Of the different items on the menus for
each day, and n reorganization made
recently Mt the Hotel Pennsylvania re-
vealed that surprising percentage Of
patrons omitted meat items entirely
In their lunch and dinner orders
While the percentage for lunch was
much higher than that for dinner, the
number of dinner guests who re-
Trained from meat entirely was also
very large.
In the opinion of Chef Julien JAG
quer of the Pennsylvania this is the
result of years of emphasis on the
value of vegetarianism. The vegeiari-
an, a few years ago, was very general
ly the butt of tie comic papers; but
with the war great deal more came
to he thought of him by people who
found that a thoroughly satisfactory
meal could be made from vegetables
and at much less cost. Chef lacquer
believes that this Is responsible for the
many calls given nowadays in the big
hotels for vegetable luncheons and
dinners, which have a special place on
the menus.

FLOWERS THAT ARE UNLUcKY
Various Superstitions That Some Per-
sons Are Said to Have Implicit
Faith In.

Never make a present of a bunch OIL
violets with an ivy leaf tied up with
them. If you do you will surely quar-
rel with the person to whom you make
the gift.
This is all very regrettable, no doubt.
since ivy is convenient as a cheap and
easily obtainable ornament; but If
one wants to safeguard oneself against
bad luck one must be prepared to make
sacrifices.
The unluckiness of bringing haw-
thorn indoors is so wen known as
hardly to need mentioning, but fewer
people are aware that yellow flowers
are unlucky unless they are mingled
with flowers of another color. For in
stance, yellow roses are supposed to
cause lovers to quarrel.
Never have only yellow blooms in
any ROOF in which you are saying
goodbye to someon who is going
away. If you defy this superstition
there is a strong probability that you
will never see the departing person
again.
Never pick up a dropped flower that
you find in the street. No matter how
fresh and inviting it may look. you
must pass by and leave It where II
lies. Otherwise you may bring mis-
fortune upon your unwise head.

New York.-Quite the most popu
lous boarding house in New York city
this summer is Virginia Pope's Bird
club, at 100 West Sixty-fifth street,
They counted up to the tooth bird that
had arrived the other day, and then
1t took so much time to serve bird
seed, meal worms, boiled eggs and
baked apples for the little guests that
they stopped counting, and no one
knows how many birds there are now
three floors and a basement of them,
including a bird comic opera troupe.
1t is a very chatty place, this bird
club, and when a. reporter dropped in
a gay voice said "HeIlo! |" cheerfully
and then began in a clear voice to
sing:
Yankee Doodle came to town riding on
a pony,
Stuck a feather in his hat and called
it Macaroni.
The n%onchalant reception Of a guest
vas in keeping with the character of
the singer, who is n of the aristo-
Gratis of the club. He is a Mexican
yellow head parrot, a wonderful bird,
one in 10000, worth many thousands
Of dollars; there have never been a
dozen SO valuable in the country, and
his mistress would not take any price
for him. Polly is patriotic in his mus
ical selections; he sings "Marching
Through Georgia and shouts "vive
la France" and If you knew his mis-
tress you would know where he learn
ed the sentiments, for he speaks ex-
actly in her voice. Polly also knows
his primer and If he happens to be
in a showing-off mood he will ask:
"Can you spell cat? / can spell cat
cat, cat" He will do the same with
the word dog and wind up with:
"What does the canary do?". and
with twitter and trills he will show
how the canary sings.
An Acrobatic cockatoo.
But the talented Mexican is not the
greatest bird socially in the club if he
is worth in cold cash at least $1,000.
