The Difference.

Mr.. Fl. G. Wells has no exalted opin-
ion Of the works of modern authors,
judging from the following story.
Some time ago a friend was talking
to him about the good times that
novelists of today have compared with
those Of the past.
"You modern writer's do not work
so hard" he said, "and you are paid
twenty times as much as you ought
to be-"
Mr.. Wells gently shook his head.
"You labor under a misapprehension,
my boy" he replied; "the chief DIFF
ference between the Gid authors and
those Of today is simply this: They
die and their works live; our works
die and we live-as best we canw

We, however, make type of dessert called the
'bombe,' which is a separate science in itself
bombes are of all shapes, sizes and names, and
are combination of ice creams, sherbets,

often been under the dominion Of other coun-

those of her former conquerors, especially of

have affected the diet of all the Balkan states.
Balkan decacies, like those of MANY other
foreign lands, are frequently very substantial

layers of aaky, paper-thin dough and is filled

many New York restaurants.
Charlotte is the class name for somewhat
similar dessert. The dough in this case, how
ever, is cut out in the form of wide noodles and
the completed food resembles pudding.
The Lithuanians, living as they do in a
northern climate, have vigorous appetites and
they take great delight in eating dessert
that consists OF prunes, carrots and potatoes.
