The snail as an article of diet generally is associated with the French nation. As a matter of fact, it is a dietetic legacy from the ancient Romans, who were, ac- cording to John Ball, from whose tradi- tions of the table the American nation is almost emancipated, “nawsty feeders.” The taste for snails must have lingered among the peasantry of “All Gaul” for centuries after the departure of the Ro- man eagles, but it was not until 1814 that the tables of culture and refinement in France adopted them formally. The man who had the audacity to make an aristo- crat of the snail was the Prince de Tal- leyrand-Perigord, a member of a family noted even unto this day for originality bordering on whimsicality and for dar- ing, or perhaps “nerve” might be a good word, in the illustration of that origi- nality. Talleyrand-Perigord, after the return of Louis XVIII, entertained the Emper- or Alexander I of Russia at a great po- litical dinner. The prince had in his serv- ice the best chef in Paris, whom he had bribed by the promise of higher wages to leave his former master, Cambaceres. The cook was named Anacreon. The prince recollected a delicious dish of snails which he had eaten in Vienna (al- though merely in passing it may be men- tioned that he would not have recognized that city by that name). He summoned Anacreon and gave to him orders on the subject. The chef cook—as the prince soon found out—was not only aware al- ready of the possibilities of the snail, but had made a specialty of it as an article of food while he had been directing the kitchens of other masters. He accepted the suggestion that the dish should be presented ‘‘a la bourguignonne.” The diners, among whom were many celebrities, hailed the preparation with enthusiasm and ate of it with expressions of unbounded delight. With it was hand- ed around a neat card, headed ‘Escar- gots a la bourguignonne—plat d’Anacre- on.” “Plat d’Anacreon’” means ‘‘Anacre- on’s dish” or “Anacreon’s mess,” accord- ing to taste. Either translation is good. This event naturally set the fashion for this crustacean—for it was the shell snail and a highly bred shell snail, and not the yvellowy white, slimy, naked slug that was and is “treated” with first rate culi- nary honors. A snail farmer is a “cultivator” well recognized in France, and the term is as- sociated with men of wealth and talent— the one acquired by and the other exhib- ited in successful snail raising. In our own country or in Britain a farmer who was addressed as “Mr. Snailfarmer” would be likely to feel insulted. In “la belle France” he would bow and, if only a roots and corn farmer, would say: “Pardon, but I have not that high honor —to be a farmer of snails. Would that 1 were.” A snail farmer was quizzed recently by a French writer. The escargot man was in the National library at Paris, reading with ease Greek and Latin works, when the reporter found him. On being drawn into conversation the snail farmer reluc- tantly desisted for awhile from reading and, with evident annoyance at the un- toward disturbance, rapidly gave the de- sired information. He cultivates the snail in the depart- ment of La Sarthe. The products of Bur- gundy are still in the lead, but as the re- sults obtained are dependent upon the method of “snailing’’ followed there is not really, after all, much choice. The snails are picked from the hedges and other places where they abound at the end of the summer and are then ‘“park- ed” in some grassy inclosure, arranged in_such a manner as to prevent all possi- bility of escaping. The fattening plot has to be specially chosen, must be shady and sunny and cultivated with the great- est care. All kinds of delicate and sweet scented herbs are favorable to the proc- ess, such, for instance, as thyme, mint, sage, chervil, marjoram, ete. When au- tumn gives place to chilly days and fros- ty nights, the inclosure is strewn with fine moss, dried leaves. etc., among which the snails take shelter and literally shut themselves up in their shell, closing it by means of a calcareous substance which they secrete. This is the time when they are ready for the market, and they are then collected and stored in dry cellars, to be sent off as required. Another essentially French dish is the one which is covered by the poetic title of “Nymphes de Bourgogne.” It was under this pseudonym that Escoffier. that past master in culinary matters, offered this dainty to English diners and really can claim the merit of having overcome some of the British repugnance to the same. Long before the day when Escoffier produced a masterpiece which conquered at least those English guests who willing- ly partook of it and asked for more the innocent batrachian nearly spoiled an en- tente cordiale between England and Spain. In 1868 the commander of the Ranger had orders to settle some ques- tions with the consul of Spain in some port on the Guinea coast. After business transactions had been completed the tra- ditional invitation to dinner was sent out and accepted. Among other dishes there appeared the one that made Delmonico famous ander the pompous title of “Ba- traciens mubissante a la Louisiane.” When the vol-au-vent had passed round and been enjoyed three times by the British officers, some guest had the un- lucky thought of asking what composed this excellent course. On being told that frogs made up the luscious preparation the commander, so the story goes, return- ed to his ship and in the greatest wrath informed the foreign office that the Brit- ish flag had been insulted by the Spanish consul. Sir Patrick Campbell, who pro- ceeded to Sierra Leone to arrange the dispute, was told the whole truth. Not only did he hear the facts, but having partaken himself of the insulting vol-au- vent declared the question settled and added his name to the number of Eng- lishmen who could honestly approve of “Froggy’s” good taste in culinary mat- ters.—New York Press. Drudgery. What is called the drudgery of any em- ployment will be most faithfully per- formed by the one who takes the most comprehensive view of the whole work. Seen in its true relations, it obtains a dig- nity which saves it from contempt, and the superior man will willingly perform many a task which a lesser one would shirk as being bencath him. Candy Store Ways. There is an old story to the effect that it is a custom in eandy stores to tell the new clerk to eat all the candy she wants, the result being that she is soon surfeited and wants no more candy for a long time. The fact appears to be that sub- stantially there is no rule or custom in candy stores regarding the eating of can- dy by the sales people. It is of course required that they shall not eat candy in the presence of customers. It might be possible that a new clerk who developed an inordinate fondness for candy would require a gentle hint, but clerks are not told when they begin work that they may or may not eat candy. Nothing is said about that at all, and they do as they please about it and eat what they want, governing themselves, it is to be presum- ed, by discretion and common sense. It was also the common testimony that people do nct get tired of candy by being always in the midst of it, and this seems t> apply alike to those engaged in the manufacture of candy and the handling of it by wholesale and to the clerks en- gaged in the constant actual handling of candy in the sale of it at retail. Those who are fond of candy, men as well as women, are not surfeited by the sight of it in quantities constantly surrounding them. If it is good candy, they keep cn liking it just the same and enjoy eating what they want of it. As to whether men or women like can- dy better there was some difference in the expressed opinion. At some places it was said that men and women liked can- dy equally well. It was said, for in- stance, that in a little company of men and women eating candy the men would eat as much as the women. At one place where the opinion was expressed that men, take them altogether, do not like candy so well as women do it was said that if a man was fond of candy he was likely to be very fond of it, so that he might eat a quantity of it at a time. It was everywhere said that among children boys and girls are alike in their love for candy, but taking into account expres- sions of people outside the business as well as of those in it the weight of opin- ion seemed to be that among grown per- sons there are more women with a sweet tooth than men—that is to say, that men are not so fond of candy as women.— New York Sun. Armour as a Brakeman. The late George A. Sheldon, depot master of the Lake Shore station, who died after 46 years of continuous service with the Lake Shore company, was a veritable encyclopedia of railroad inci- dent, and his well told tales if repeated in his own select phrase would rank as classic literature. His narrations were confined to actualities, thus giving them a real value. He was many years a con- ductor, and among the best of the inci- dents he related is the following: “One day there stepped aboard my train a well dressed, business appearing man who as he tendered his fare re- marked: “I see you are still on the road, Mr. Sheldon.’ “¢Yes, I am still at it,” I replied, ‘but I am not certain that I remember you, though I think I have seen you before.’ “ ‘Yes, you have seen me before,’ em- phasized the passenger, ‘and while you doubtless have forgotten it I still remem- ber that you once did me the greatest favor of my life. Come to my seat when you get time, and I'll tell you about it.’ “When I had finished collecting fares, 1 dropped into the stranger’s seat, and he continued: ‘Years ago I was four days brakeman aboard your train. At the end of the four days you took me aside and remarked in a tone of sympathy: ‘I’m sorry to have to tell you so, but the fact is, young man, you are too much of a fool to ever make a good railroader. Take my advice and quit.” I took your advice and went into other business, and the result is I made a fair fortune. I thank you, Mr. Sheldon, for your wise counsel.’ “ “What is your name ?’ I asked. « «Phil D. Armour of Chicago,” replied my ex-brakeman, ‘and I shall always re- member your kindness. I was a stupid railroader, and you advised me for my good.’ «Until this interview,” added Mr. Shel- don, “I never suspected that Philip D. Armour, the packer, was the brakeman 1 discharged years before.” —Adrian (Mich.) Cor. Detroit News. Meat and Cancer. The question how far the increase of cancer among the more highly civilized nations, which has appeared so marked during recent years, is caused by the greater quantity of meat which is eaten in prosperous countries is a matter of very considerable interest. That man is by nature not a vegetarian may be taken as pretty certain, but it is also certain that as the result of hard necessity meat has generally in times past been to him a luxury and has but rarely found a pre- ponderating element in his diet. But with prosperity and with the greater ease with which animal food can now be obtained we find whole nations falling upon meat as a necessary ingredient of their daily diet, and in the very nations among whom this change is most noticeable we are told that cancer shows the greatest increase.—Hospital. No Exact Brigade Standard. There is no absolute standard for the strength of a brigade or division of troops such as there is for the yard and for the pound. A brigade of infantry, however, may be taken to mean a body of four battalions or 4,000 officers and men, or a little over it. A division is formed of two such brigades and may be taken to number 8,500 officers and men, together with three batteries of artillery or 18 guns; a squadron of cavalry, say, 140 men, and a field company of engi- neers, say, 200 men.—London Telegraph. Irish Advice. “Never be critical upon the ladies” was the maxim of an old Irish peer re- markable for his homage to the sex. “The only way that a true gentleman ever will attempt to look at the faults of a pretty woman is to shut his eyes.”— Collier’s Weekly. Cannel coal was once used as a substi- tute for candles because it can be cut into blocks or strips and burns with a clear yellow flame. Its real name is candle coal. For Dickinson Seminary. A. E.

Taking Aim With a Pistol, When I was a young man over 40 years ago, pistol shooting was one of my most admired sports, and I spent hours and days in practice to become proficient. For a long time I followed the usual practice of ‘sighting’—that is, looking over sights placed on the barrel, but one day I, as many would say, accidentally discovered how to take aim without sighting and to shoot accurately in any position, and it came about in this way. I saw a red squirrel a short distance away, down by the side of a fence, and, my mother be- ing with me, I called her attention to it, but as it was nearly concealed in the* grass she could not see it, so I said, ‘Now look along my finger,” at the same time pointing with the index finger of my right hand, and she, as requested, looked along my finger as you would in sighting a pis- tol, when she remarked, ‘You are point- ing directly at it.’ “I immediately caught it as by inspira- tion that there was something worth re- membering, and the next day I put the idea into practice and soon found myself an expert in accuracy. The method I pursued was this: I used a single barrel pistol of fair weight and length, and, grasping the stock firmly in the hand, used the second finger on the trigger, placing the index finger along the side of the barrel and used that for pointing at the mark, it taking the place of sighting. I soon found by practice that 1 could shoot from any position if 1 could only get a chance to point my finger at the mark. *To assist me in holding by finger di- rectly in line with the bore of the barrel until I got familiar with it 1 fastened a loop or guide for the finger alongside the barrel, but I only required this a short time. The idea is that if you point your index finger at any object you will find the range accurately, and practice will improve your ability to point your gun where you want to place the shot. “This is one of the great secrets in rap- id and accurate pistol shooting, for you can take aim as quickly as you can point your finger, and it does not require rais- ing the arm. Let the arm rest by the side of the body, bend the elbow, point your finger, and you have an accurate aim by practice. This is only one of the many positions, but gives an idea how it is done. I prefer a single shot pistol that pulls fairly easy and is of good, fair weight. If you use a cylinder pistol, then you must protect the finger from the escaping powder fumes between the bar- rel and cylinder by wearing a thick leath- er finger guard. “If any of your readers has never tried this method of shooting, he will be pleas- antly surprised at the results accomplish- ed in a short time, but of course systein- atie practice is required to become profi- cient.””—Washington Star. Women in Persia. Life is sad in Persia, especially the wo- man’s life. The law of Islam allows each man to have four wives. His wives he may divorce at will. Our word *‘bosh” is the Turkish word by which a Moslem di- vorces his wife. It doesn’t count if he says it only once or twice, but if said the third time the woman must go, and there is no recourse. There are no words for wife and home in Persia. There are no homes and few wives. It is curious to hear a handsome woman say, ‘‘I have told my husband if he marries another wife I shall poison him, and I intend to do it.” Or to ask a woman about her home life and get the answer: “Love my husband? Oh, yes, I love him. I love him as much as a sieve holds water.” In the cities the Moslem women—and all but about 60,000 or so of the 4,000,- 000 women of the land are Moslems—nev- er appear in public save dressed in black and heavily veiled, the eyes looking out through a small meshed space of the veil. Custom, fear of men and not mod- esty impose this dress. The poorer wom- en or the women in the villages wear no veils, or throw the veils back and leave their faces uncovered, unless now and then in a coquettish way they draw a told of the dress across the mouth. The fire worshipers or Guebres are but few in Persia now, though it is the land of their origin, but their women can be picked out at once in Teheran or in the few cities where they are found by their dress. Outside of Teheran is the tower of Silence, where, believing neither in cremation nor in burial, the fire worship- ers expose their dead. From the hillside it looks out in solemn stillness over the broad, dead plain, even as the dead of this dying people look up in solemn still- ness from their ghastly burial place to the unanswering sky.—Robert E. Speer in Leslie’s Monthly. Trivial Cause of a Bloody War. In the year 1654 a Polish nobleman be- came obnoxious to the laws of his coun- try by reason of his having committed a crime. He fled to Sweden, whereupon John Casimir, king of Poland, wrote to Charles Gustavus, king of Sweden, de- manding the surrender of the criminal. The king of Sweden on reading the dis- patch, noticed that his own name and titles were followed by two ‘‘et ceteras,” while the name of the king of Poland was followed by three. The missing “et cetera” so enraged the king of Sweden that he at once declared war against Po- land. The war was carried on with great bitterness until 1660, when a peace was signed at Oliva, near Dantzig. A con- temporary writer (Kochowsky) poured out his lamentations on the war in these terms: “How dear has this ‘et cetera’ been to us! With how. many lives have these two potentates paid for these missing eight letters! With what streams of blood has the failure of a few drops of ink been avenged!”—Collier’s Weekly. Colleges of Commerce. No business man can be too well train- ed. No business can have too well trained workers in its service. The best training for a business man is ‘the ability to think. It is usually impossible to determine in advance what business a man in col- Jege will enter. It is therefore usually wise not to em- phasize strongly the element of mere knowledge in preparing for a business training. . If one have a well trained mind, he is prepared to learn any business with ease, so that he can conduct it with whatever success it is in him to make. The plan for the establishment of col- leges of commerce is in peril of substi- tuting knowledge for power, information for ability to think.—Professor Thwing in Independent. The art of starching linen was brought into England in 1553 by a Flemish wom- an. A Natural Soda-Water Fountain, German Workmen Tap a Powerful Carbonic Acid Spring. During boring operations near Niedernau, in" Waurttemberg, Germany, the men sud- denly struck a powerful carbonic acid spring. The hole was being cut through blue clay, in a width of 24, and, lower down, of 12 inches. The stream did not come out in fu!l powerall at once, but it suddenly increased so much that the men thought best to retire as quickly as they could, leaving their tools to take care of themselves. The fountain rose to a height of 80 feet with a roar. nobody could approach close, as the atmos phere was fully charged acid. A few men who ventured too near had to be rescued by their companions, be- ing overpowered by the suffocating gas. For several days the power of the well did not diminish. It is a pity that the respec- tive machinery and appliances for catching the acid cannot be fixed in a hurry when the eruption is at its best. But often the first experiments do not repay, because the fountain becomes exhausted or the gases find another outlet. The Army and Navy Chaplains. Much erroneous information has been published recently about the chaplains in the army and navy. They are thirty-four chaplains in the army, four of them col- ored. Their pay.is $1,500 a year with a ten per cent. increase for each five years of service. They are of the following denomin- ations: Methodist 12; Episcopalians, 9; Presbyterians, 5; Roman Catholic, 4; Baptists, 2; Christian, 1. There are twen- ty-four chaplains in the navy. Their pay for the first five years service is $2,500 a year, and for the second five years, $2,800 when at sea. It is $500 a year less when on leave or waiting orders. The naval chaplains are divided denominationally as follows : Methodists, 9, Episcopalians, 5; Catholics, 3; Baptists, 2; Presbyterians, 2; Disciples of Christ, 1; Unitarian, 1; Univer- salists, 1. These figures are from the official records. Each One Had His Hobby. W. F.Cody had in one of his companies a Westerner, ‘‘Bronco Bill.” A certain missionary had joined the aggregation to look after the morals of the Indians. Thinking that Bronco Bill would bear a little looking after also, the good man se- cured a seat at his side at the dinner table and remarked pleasantly: ‘This is Mr. Bronco Bill, is it not?”’ ‘‘Yaas.” “Where were you born?’ “Near Kit Bullard’s mill, on Big Pig- eon.” ‘Religious parents, I suppose?’ **Yaas.”’ “What is you denomination?’’ ‘‘My what?”’ ! ‘Your denomination?’ “‘O-ah-yaas. Smith and Wesson.” Accumulating Information. ‘‘What is the price of this lovely antique chair ?”’ asked the shopper. “Thirty-seven dollars, swered the dealer. “Thirty-seven dollars!’ exclaimed the lady in astonishment. “Why, I didn’t suppose it was worth half that much.” “You didn’t ask what it was worth, madam,’’ replied the conscientious dealer. ‘*You asked the price.” madam,’’ an- Reminded.
