Onions Banished, Chef
Wins Honor From Ruler

You who are fond Of the substratum
OF history. and who find in the un-
published memoirs OF friends of the
great, the piquancy which is the sauce
OF history, give ear to the story Of
Napoleon and the onions. Heed, and
learn how, by dint Of much thought,
this favorite dish of the Little Cor
poral nearly upset the history OF Eu-
rope. For, if Louise had smelled on
ions on Maps breath
Alberty, Leon Alberty, whose sauces
have made the lips of the living great
twitch with anticipation, had, like the
rest OF us, a great-grandfather, one
Michael Alberty. Michael Alberty
wore on his broad lapel the decoration
of the Legion d'Honneur, and sundry
other marks Of the esteem of France
in those days represented by Napoleon
the Great Many of them had been
won by hard service in the field-but
the TACT that Michael being a man OF
discretion and invention, knew onions
may have had something to do with it
also.
For when Napoleons concern over
future heirs led him to sever his ties
to Josephine and go ACQUIRING to
Louise he found a difficulty in the
matter The great man was fond OF
onions, He was addicted to onions.
in fact, the indisposition from which
he died is supposed to have been due
largely to onions. And when he began
his visits to Louise there arose from
reasons OF more or less delicacy a
necessity for either giving up the on
ions or the girl. The destiny of France
was in the balance. And right here's
where Michael Alberty comes in.
Leon is certain that his great-grand-
fathers gastronomic science is respon-
sible for the trend Of French history
For Michael, when consulted by his
emperor, advised him that neither
Louise nor the onions would have to
be given up. And he concocted a
sauce-a mysterious dressing, which
chloroformed the objection to the cul-
tivated leeks, and made possible the
whispering of soft words in close
proximity to a dainty ear, without
danger Of sudden and sharp refusal.

FOUR-FOOT BATS HANG
LIKE FRUIT ON TREES
Thousands of Them Frequently Form
in Single Colony in the East.


Bats are common throughout many
parts Of the world, but it is in India,
Ceylon, and the adjoining islands that
they attain their greatest size. The
species inhabiting these regions are
known as fox-bats, also as fruit-bats
and as hying-foxes, and they live en-
tirely on fruits. SO numerous are they
that they are great nuisance, and
the government in Ceylon pays hun
tiers to kill them All day long they
hang on the branches of trees, looking
like great black fruits, but as evening
falls they begin their nightly depreda-
tons, which they continue until dawn
when they again return to their tree
homes. Thousands OF them frequently
form a single colony, and as dawn
comes they wrangle and jostle one
another for the most desirable places
on the limbs of a tree, where, once
settled they hang, head down, until
day is over. Even when they are hunt
ed and killed by the thousands the
number is so great that it does not
seem to be materially diminished. So
greedy is the Indian fruit-bat, it is
said, that it will drink the palm juice
from pots hung in the trees, and at
times the animals have been found at
the loot of the trees quite helpless
from intoxication. From four to five
feet is often the wing spread OF the
Indian and Malay species OF the fruit
or fox-bat, it getting the latter name
from the fox-like head and face.

EUROPE IS LACKING FOOD,
