THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, JULY 29," 1890.X ai' AMERICANS GIVEN TO WASTE OF FOOD NEGLECTED ECONOMIES IN COM MISSARY DEPARTMENT. Much Money to Bo Saved by Women Who Do Their Own Marketing In a Judicious Manner The Trench Wny of Obtaining Variety at a Slight Cost Vegetables. . From tho New York Sun. Food ot nil kinds Is bo nbundnnt with Atnerlcnns that economy In Its) use is not neccsary and tinlvcrsal waste pre vails. What Is discarded or thrown away would food half ns mnny'ngaln of the Latin or Oriental rnees. as mo population increases and a greater de mand Is made upon tho sources of sup ply without proportionate Increase of resources, coming fenerations will he compelled to learn how to utilize tho commonest alimentary products with the same skill that Kuropean peoples now employ. Ono-half the amount ex pended here upon perishable aliments could bo saved were Americans trained to extract from them their utmost nutritive vnluo In quantity and qual ity. This means not only thorough ac quaintance with the adaptability of a single article of subsistence to Its pur pose, but also Its fitness for tho form of cooking to which it is to be sub jected. An example of this Is found In tho use of a piece of beef after It lias served Its purpose in the making of stock for soups. With Americans the rule Is to discard it as no longer of value; whereas it Is capable of treat ment In many forms for tho concoction of very appetizing and nutritious dish es. It may bo served cold with a vinai grette sauce, cut In slices with oil and vlnegur, mixed with chopped herbs, or hot, au gratln, hashed and baked In a platter with a rich sauce and mushrooms, or with a sauce plquanto, or In little pics. This illustration Is only one of a hundred of how wasted products may be profitably utilized. WASTK IN OIIDERING. The custom that prevails of pur chasing perishable supplies through a system of orders rather than in person is another source of waste. Clever marketing not only involves skilful buying, but also the ability to ndapt the choice of the provisions bought to tho use which it is proposed to make of them. For example, the feminine head of a household desires to pur chase a fowl for a fricassee. If sho sends nn order for one to the dealer, although she may specify tho purpose for which she intends it, he will use no discretion In selection, hut will send a bird that Is suitable for roasting and sells at a much higher price than one of inferior quality that would be entirely adapted to the concoction of the dish. This means so much unneces sary expenditure. If she goes In per son to purchase a fowl for a fricassee, and If she Is skilful In buying, she w ill select one that Is old, tough, and Ill-favored, for it Is to be cooked In such a way that these defects will not be apparent when the preparation of the dish Is completed. The difference In cost between a fowl of Inferior qual ity entirely adapted to the making of a fricassee and one of much higher prlo which tho dealer will glvo her If no personal choice Is exercised will en able her to buy some other articles for the completion of the meal. A clever womun marketer will not purchase vegetables of the same degree of fresh neiss forthe making of soups as for use alone. In a soup it Is a matter of no moment whether vegetables are stale or fresh. The former the dealer will dispose of at so much less cost than the latter that the buyer who knows how to use discrimination will save enough to buy two or three por tions of choice vegetables for service as separate dishes. THK MATTER OF MEATS. The buying of meat offers even greater opportunity for tho display ot judgment. A woman who Is thorough ly familiar with all the cuts Into which the carcass of nn animal Is subdivided and can determine quality at a glance will not purchase an expensive portion when an Inferior one will do ns well when troatod with a special sauce that will transform It into a succulent and appetizing viand and make It far more acceptable than a costly cut spoiled through Incompetent cooking. A dealer, when he encounters a marketer of this discriminating and learned type, is In terested and docs Justice to her super ior capacity In concession in price that lie recoups four or five times over from those who buy through orders. A woman who Is n skilful purchaser of perishable food will exhibit her Judgment in another direction.

The cheaper and Inferior elements can be made to play n very Important part In n household whose head gives her personal atten tion to the purchasing nnd preparation of them. LESSONS FROM FItANOE. French women offer a notable ex ample of tho possession of this gift. They do not suffer ns American wo men do from the want of money for necessary household supplies, because they possess the faculty of making tho most of what they have. It Is for this reason that entlng In French families of moderate means Is so far superior to that of tho majority of the richer families In other countries, with tho exception, perhaps, of those of Ittily. While they serve at a meal fewer dish es and in smaller quantities, tho ex ecution of each Is perfect In Itself, and the variety of f&rpis of preparation makes up for the relative absence of variety In the substance employed. The women ot French households know how to prepare dishes out of tho cheap cat and most commonplace ailments, so thnt ench shall have a distinct char acter and Its Individual essence and aroma. They nre thoroughly trained In the knowledge that poverty does not prevent the exercise of skill In the field In which they are preeminent. Of money they have little, but they sub stitute for It an abundance of Intelli gence. The most striking advance In tho economical preparation of and preven tion of wasto In food has come through the use of gas and kerosene oil In cook ing. Instead of a mass of coal that is kopt constantly in ignition, even for the purpose of boiling a kettle ot water, a single Jet of gas or oil that Is burning only so long" as it Is needed answers the same end. The economy of this system Is beyond computation. A chicken Is roasted or broiled through the expenditure of only enough heat to nccompl'lsh the process. None Is wasted to (low oft Into tho chimney, as when coal or wood Is used. There Is neither dirt nor grit to contaminate the ar ticles that are being cooked. A kero sene stove with two apertures will sup ply heat enough to prepare a meal for at least six people at a cost of not more than two cents, whereas the same expenditure of energy through the use of coal would cost ten times as much If not more. WE MUST COME TO IT. Tho French nre invariably cited as offering examples to thrift and skill In the selection nnd preparation of food; but those qualities, the result of train ing, have not been effectively npplled except during the past one hundred years. It was not until the time of the Regency that real cookery was first Introduced Into France, and then its action was confined to the upper class es. Edible material at that time was very limited. It was not until 1790 that potatoes began to be seriously grown in France as nn article of diet. Tho employment of gnrden produce on a large scale Is quite a modern feature in French eating. The use of vege tables has Increased so largely there that their consumption now amounts to half the total of food employed. This has resulted In a change of details and results of cookery so great as to dom inate tho entire French alimentary sys tem. There Is no mystery In the way the French discover fresh forms of cul inary treatment or how they continue to add more dishes to their extensive catalogue. They have not kept their discoveries to themselves. They have published them to the world, nnd have Invited and enabled everybody to fol low In their track. What It will be necessary for Ameri cans to do In the future in order to practice economy In food is to ndopt the system of the French, who know how to eat cheaply, nutritively and agreeably. Tho change must come through the women who are supposed to supervise American kitchens. In Franco every maid employed in domes tie service Is more or less accomplish ed in cookery. Here those that are not cooks through choice disdain to tnke even a passing lesson from what Is going on about them in the preparation of food. A MONSTER FISH.

Ionian omnlro and Its absorption In tho Mcdn.l'crslun empire did not obscure thq prospects of Daniel. Left l.y Ilclshnzzar In great honor, an a reward for service, ho was received with special favor l.y the cotviueror. Darius arranged his gov. eminent In one hundred nnd twenty provinces, over which ho placed three presidents with Daniel ns llrst. This act wns highly offentdvo to tho native princ es, who looked with Jealousy upon u Jew who hud been a servant of tho Into dyn. nsty, tind they conspired 'against him. ill ndnitiilbtrntlon, however, was fuultlcss, giving no ground for accusation. They wero therforo compelled to attack him on religious considerations. They sot i trim for him in the matter of prayer nnd made tho king a party to their scheme by securln a decree that fed tho klng'a vanity. nitAVEnV IVcrses 10 nnd ll).-That decree provided thnt any man who should offer a petition for thirty days to any except tho kins should bo cast Into the den of lions. Hut Daniel was In no wlsa disturbed by this threatening statute. He did not censo his prayer, or ulmlnUli their number, or perform them In secret. Fully aware that the writing hnd been signed, ho went, as wns his custom, into ho went, an wan his custom. Into n three times u day f Psalm Iv: 17), v. noon and tight, and prayed to ,1 (Acts x: 9).

II). Hero Is one of the grandest exhibi tions of bravery In all the annals of his. tory. MALICH (Verses 12 nnd 13), --The op portunity desired by the princes had come. They felt that the man against whom thelrcnvy burned wns at Inst within their power, and his destruction sure. They had witnessed Daniel's net of devotion nnd they hastened to testify ngalnst him. It was nn ImpoMng but innliclous com pany of oillcluls governors, princes, counsellors nnd captains the dlgnitarlej of tho realm who assembled at court to present eharges against the Jew, a repetition of what had occurred In the tlmo Nebuchadnezzar (Dan. Ill: S). Thov first recited the royal decree which they had caused lo be published, nnd they se. cured from the king, not only n recugni tlon, but also nn acknowledgment, ns they desired, that the lavs of tho MedoM and Persians were inviolate. Then catna their deel'iratlon that Daniel, whom they btigmatlzed ns of the captivity, had dis regarded the decree and tho king and was guilty of disobedience, disrespect nnd disloyalty. ItKOJtKT (Verses II and IS). -King Da rius was greatly distressed when he saw annually whip the streams nnd lakes of the country have ever seen such a monster. It wns caught by set linos In the Columbia river, where men make a business of securing these monsters, which appear In the form of fish steaks on many an eastern table and also help to supply the epicure with his favorite relish, caviare. The sturgeon fishing industry of the Columbia Is carried on principally In the fall and winter. When the heavy runs of salmon are over and the var ious canneries on the river have com pleted the season's pack, some of the fishermen turn their attention from that kins: of western fish to -he more plehian sturgeon, a variety which has little of the beauty and gamey spirit of the salmon. The latter is a sa.t water ilsh, which comes to the streams tributary to the Pacllle only at spawn ing time, while the sturgeon Is foun.l In the river at all seasons of the year. As has been said, the sturgeon grows to enormous dimensions, but noth wlthstandlug Its size and strength It Is of a sluggish temperament. Tlv weight of the fish considered lit to ship ranges down to thirty pounds. The appearance of the sturgeon will not entitle It to a position anions the beauties of the finny trlbde. It Is dnilt In color and has three rows of sharp, horny scales extending; the entire length of Its thick-skinned body, prob ably for protective purposes. Tho head Is very large, with a toothless mouth located at the under side In a position similar to that of tho shark. Its habi tat Is in the mud nt tho bottom of the river, where It feeds principally on refuse matter. The gear used In catching these monsters hear little resemblance to the bent pin and string of tho small boy who would a-llshlng go, as a rope a quarter of an Inch In diameter nni huge hooks from eight to ten Inches long nnd almost as largo around as a lead pencil, are used. Set lines are em ployed, the honks in some Instances being baited, but more frequently they nre placed bare In great numbers across the feeding: grounds of the fish, so that an unwary movement will bring n sturgeon In contact with a sharp barb and In Its struggles to tear out a first, often six or eight more will be come deeply Imbedded lit Its flesh, and the fish Is held till tho lines ore taken up at tho nppolnted time. Tho lines are from 200 to 800 feet long, firmly anchored at both ends, and nro supported by floats, adjusted to keep them at the proper distance from the bottom. At every foot hangs a short line, called a "snoozle" by the fisherman, which carries tho hook, and It can thus be readily seen what a deadly trap is laid for tho unsuspect ing' tlsh. The market for sturgeon' is In the east, New York consuming large quan tities. Heforo starting on Mb lonjr Jour ney across the continent It Is frozen perfectly solid and hencn It arrives In as good condition us that in which It started. Tho Madder Is of use, and the hone Is highly prized by the Chinese, who employ It In the preparation of a soup, ono of the strange dishes par ticularly pleasing to the celestial pal ate. Hy the ulclieniy of commerce, much of the sturgeon appears in mar ket as smoked halibut. The fishermen receive flvo cents per pound for their catch from the ship pers, and hence one large fish will bring them quite a little sum, which will he Increased if by chance it Is n female with roe. This Is a dark, olly-looklnsr mass, composed of Innumerable little globules, or eggs, and when salted and prepared for the table constitutes the delicacy 'known ns caviare. One fish will yeld from 15 to 150 pounds of cavi are, for which tho ilshermen receive 30 cents per pound. Stuigeon Ashing has been prosecuted so Industriously and the Bear usod has boon so effective, that the Columbia, once the home of Innumerable stur in the Dee of DAN.

VNIIKST (Verse lS).-In this shameful procedure there was one redeeming feat urc the king, although he had glen his final consent, did not approve the con demnntlon of Daniel. Retiring to hli palace ho refused all company, nnd would not penult the instrument, of music to be brought with which to cheer his spirits. Thnt night he could not steep, neither did he eat.

Some Midget Animals That Live in Our New Possessions in the Philip pines. l'li.m i no Wtis-hlngton i:enlng Star. Another freak beast which will excite curlo-slty In i.ur zoological traidciu Is the tamarau, a dwaif buffalo found in the forests of Mlndoro of the Philip pine group. It Is a stunted form of tho Old Woild buffalo, not of the American bison, it sometimes occurs high up In the mountains It tunnels pathways through the thick bumboo undergrowth covering the mountainsides above 0,00.) feet. Hunters must go upon hnnds and knees to follow these trails. Tho nbor iclnos never hunt this little beast, being deathly afraid of It. The midget Philippine squirrel Is an other odd creature. It is about the slza of a mouse, bus legs longer In propor tion than thobo of the ordinary squir rel, larger eyes and round, d cars. A large brown rat, gray underneath nnd with a soulrrel-like head and eyes, but black, cord-like tail, Is of still greater Interest from an evolutionary point of view. It Is discovered to be the last link lone: needed to complete tho chain of relationship between tho true rat and the water rat. A wild pig, dig nified by the name of "Sus relebensla Phlllpplnensh," K found throughout tlie whole Philippine group. It is ex ceedingly exclusive during- the day, when It hides In the torests, but sallies Bayly forth during tho night Into tho native n.nlze and rice fields, where It does much damage. The natives call this badly beloved pig "Kabul." The Philippines will also contribute a Slant fitilt-entlng bnt.

During the day it sleeps hnnginir head downward from a tree. In Hataan, of tho Philippine roup, Is found a chvretaln. or "mouse deer," a tiny little pigmy as cunning- as a fox, and which when snared feigns death until freed, when It leaps up like a lightning flash nnd takes to tho forest, leaving tho Inexperienced trapper in great surpiisn. The Philippines also contain civets, wildcats, porcupines, lizards, snakes and alligators.

Hoes. mornlt.g came, even boforo the sun had appeared, tho king hBMened from his palace to the den of lions. When Daniel went In ho had expressed faith that Clod would deliver him (Verso lfi), nn evidence that ho hnd some knowledgo of what had been done under tho Habylonlan king (Dan. Ill: II), or porslbly that the con duct of his llrst proldent had awakened his conlldcnee. With a loud voice ho called tha name of the Imperiled man. Then came tho earnest Inquiry, half bo lluvlng, half doubting, anxious to know whether tho good man still lived. Tho question wns put on Its proper basis It "nntlnued wheio tho remark of the pre. vlous day ended, "Is thy (lod. whom thou fervest, able lo deliver thco"? What a flood of light beamed forth from that uurstlonl "Thy (3od"-ns distinguished from tho divinities of Habylon! "Thou sorvest" a recognition of tho man's con stancy nnd piety. "Able to deliver" those words wcr destined to ncnulro val'ia of excoedlng comfort In all subsequent centuries, SAFETY (Verses 21, 22 and 21).-The nnswer thnt camo back out of the den filled the hiurt of the king with gladness. Tho wolds told tho story of God's keep ing power and of tho safety of His ser vant. Wlthul, there was no malice. Daniel, who had been the victim of a cruel decree, could exclaim in oriental fashion, "O king, live forever." "My (lod hath sent Ills angel," he added, as criblng tho honor to Hlin to whom It be. lenged, but recognizing tho Instrument employed to execute tho Divine pleasuro (Hob. I: II). Then he told how the mouthi of the lions had been closed (Hcb. vl: 33), nnd how they had been made harmless, so that he might spend n night with Ihem unhurt, promise of the days of pence foretold by the prophet (Isa. xl: 6. Hut Daniel ceuld not pause here. He had been outraged, and ho dared to pro claim even from the den his Innocence, nnd to plead his miraculous escape ns a positive proof that he hnd done no wrong to nny one. Ho wns then brought forth by tho king's servants unharmed. RHFI.nCTIONS. A good man has no renson to fear the devices of tho wicked (Heb. xlll: (!).
