In New York

New York, Feb. 13.-There is no
end to the gastronomic possibilities
in New York. The menu ranges from
borsch to nuts.
For instance, there is the little
place in the Fifties that has built up
an immense patronage through the
delicacy of its raw meat sandwiches.
On Sixth avenue in the wholesale
millinery district is a restaurant that
turns neat profit through the ex-
cellepce of its borsch, a very thick
soup.
One Russian restaurant is famed
for its blinze. an egg pancake. On
Forty-Sixth street is cafe known
from coast to coast because of its
corn beef and cabbage. In fact, a
comic strip character originated
there.
In Thirty-Fifth street is a place
known by all small-time actors for
its pigs knuckles.
Down in Washington street, near
the battery. is Turkish shop known
far and wide for its syrupy coffee.
Way up on St. Nicholas avenue is
. place patronized by great numbers
of visiting cloak-and-suiters because
it always has genuine goose livers.
On Times Square is place with a
great patronage among those who
like sour cream on fresh fruit.
A woman who opened one of the
first Greenwich Village attic tea
rooms amassed fortune through
the fluffiness of her mullins.
A chain of spaghetti restaurants,
started in the past few months. is
enjoying great prosperity. All they
serve is spaghetti in various styles,
pastry and coffee. All their sauces
contain garlic. Another Italian res
taurant attracts great trade because
garlic is added to no sauce unless
requested.
On one of the Roaring Forties
there are two lobster palaces. The
patrons of one 60 there for Lobster
Ia la Newbury. The patrons of the
other go there for broiled lobster.
The difference between brothers
has been noted in many cases, but
the one that has Broadway talking
is that between Count Salm, the
dashing tennis player who married
Millicent Rogers, heiress to millions,
and Count Otto, his older brother
Count Salm was always the life, of
the party. Count Otto is a glum,
reticent figure about the night clubs.
He dislikes public attention as much
as his brother seemed to crave it.
Thugs who slug men for pay are
called gorillas or "grills." A grill"
cares nothing about the principal
involved when he is hired to attack
a man. All he wants is his pay and
he will not fight unless he gets it. A

FOUNDATION OF HEALTH

Mrs. Jones of Anytown had al
ready learned, in her study of food
for health's sake, that the founda-
ton for health is started in infancy.
But if the child's body, and all the
organs are right, there still is a
chance of endangering the future
health of the child by improper feed
ing.
Some mothers think it would be
almost fatal to give a child. under
six months DID,. anything except
milk. w.. ..,
It is known. however, that the
child grows stronger and faster if

The admOnition to thrift is more
than a mOralism.
1t is an appeal to a man in his

1t is an appeal that a man
thinks, net of himself and his fu-

They were the founders of revolu-
tons that will doubtless be perma-
nent, but their own revolutions had
to discard them. because they could
not wake up.
The Irish Free State is a waking
fact; Sim Fein is a dream. Zaghloul
and Sun both had the Sim Fein
psychology.
Zaghloul did not try to expAnd
Egypt's half independence into COM
plete independence. He assumed
that it was complete already.
So he had to be supplanted by
man who knew fact when he saw
it.
Sun lived in the same imaginary
world as the foreign diplmat-the
dreamland which pictures China as
nation, with government.
Dreamers have their place, but
they have to subside when the facts
arrive.

ooh, dear! Isn't that lovely!" cried
Mrs. Chipmunk drying her hands
on her apron.
But as she came through the
kitchen she noticed that the dishes
were not done. On washdays Mister
Chipmunk always had the dishes to
do.
But she didn't say word. It
wouldn't do to scold her husband
with company in the parlor. Every
one knows what gossips peddlers
are.
"What have you got?" she asked
when everybody had said how do you
do and what nice day it was and
everything.
"Oh, about everything" said Mis-

THE "END" OF
THE WORLD

Once more the world has come to
an end. Feb. 6 is the date, md GER
tain persons who the Seventh Day
Adventists say are not Adventists
sold all their goods preparatory to
the event.
Their mystic arguments were as
good as those of any of their prede-
cessors, who have been doing the
same thing at intervals for centur-
les.
Some day, the world will really
come to an end. Probably that will
not be until billions of years after
the last man has frozen on the
chilling earth; but if it should hap
pen to occur during mans tenancy
of earth, the astronomers will have
predicted it years, and probably CEN

1t is interesting to speculate what
effect that knowledge would have on
human ambition.
Would you marry, have children,

on a certain date, three centuries
hence, your descendants of the ninth
generation would all be puffed out?

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Mister Peg Leg, the little fairy
peddler, and the Twins, Nancy and
Nick, went to the Land Of-Dear-
Knows Where.
1t was really Forest-Meadow- Rip
pie Creek-Lily Pond Land, but Mister
Tingaling called it "The Land-Of-
Dear Knows Where Just, for fun.
Mister Tingaling wis the fairy
landlord who had to hunt up houses
for all the animals and birds in the
spring.
And as there were scarcely enough
to 60 round, they used to say, "Dear
knows where" they were going to
live!
And Mister Tingaling would say
Gear Knows where I'm going to put
them!"
So little by little it began to be
called "The Land-O f.Dear- Knows
Where"
So if ever you hear of that place,
you will know that it means all out
doors.
Mister Tingaling met the visitors
near Maple Tree Flats.
"Why how do you ?" said he. ''Pm
glad to see you. But l do hope you
aren't hunting house or an apart
ment. Every single one is rented"
Nancy answered, ono, thank you!
We're just selling things. Mister
Peg Leg is a peddler."
ooh, no! A peddler," said Mister
Tingaling. "Well, how do you do,
Mister Peddler. Make yourself at
home.
"Do you care if go round ped

ling. mister Bags, the storekeeper,

in his store, and I'm sure my tenants
will be glad to see youvespecially if
you have bargains"
So it was settled, and Mister Peg
Leg and the Twins started on their
rounds from door to door to see what
they could sell to Mister Tingaling's
tenants.
The first place they came to was
Chirk Chipmunk's stone house.
"Tap, tap, tap" went Nick on the
front door.
Pretty soon the door flew open and
