" POTATOES AS I'OOD At First Only the Seed of the Tubers Was Thought Fit to Eat When potatoes wete Hist used for food it was the "seed" or "a, pie" tluit was used, and it was some time before the tuber wfts found to bo the ino«t delicious food. I'p to the end of the seventeenth century the potato \\;is out of the reach of people of moderate incomes. Tt is recorded thai in IGR2 "potatoes were sold at 1 shilling (25 cents) a pound in the London markets, but the sale was small because so many people believed that the potato caused leprosy and fever. Others declared that they were endangering their «ou!s if they ate the potato, since the tuber was not mentioned it; the Bible. The late Duke of Argyll in iiis his tory of Scotland says that little or not'i ing was known of the potato in Scot - i land until long past the middle of the ] eighteenth century. The Duchess of i Buccleuch, in her "Household Bool<"| for the year 1701, s))eal;s of the potato as "'an esculent of great, rarity." Hugh Miller, in his "Schools and Schoolmasters," says that his maternal i grandfather about the vear 1 740 used to bring home in his pocket some three or four potatoes as great rarities grown j by the gentry, fo: he was a friend of the head irardener at Balnagown castle. Thomas Carlyle tells us that his fat lief got (possession of four potatoes anil knew so little about them that he hid j them away for a possible time of want ' and that potatoes were saved to be j eaten at Halloween. There is no doubt that the Irish were the first people to recognize the value of the potato tus a staple article of food.—Youth's Com- 1 panion. CRATER LAKES Easter Island Has a Wonderful One, and So Has Java Wonderful lakes are often found in- j side the craters of volcanoes. One of . these can be seen upon Easter island— the island which bears wonderful re mains of an unknown ancient people. Inside a crater is a lake, near the bor ders of which lie several unfinished crowns "composed of tufa, evidently des- | tined for the huge figures on the shores of the island, but never completed. And on this lake float many waterfowl, one of which is said to be a goose un known to science. Another curious crater lake existed until recently within the icebound era- : ter of a volcano in New Zealand. TJie i water was heated to boiling point, but ' a short time ago an eruption of more j than common violence tossed the 'whole lake into the air. A most interesting crater lake can 1 still toe seen in Java in the volcano of Papandajan, and it is possible to entdr ' the crater aud gaze down on the scene below. Standing on the rim, one can I see the vast seething mass of boiling | mud. Ev6rv now and then a wave of mud moves heavily along Hie sides of ; the chasm, only to fall back into the molten mass, ami here and there col- . minis of sulphur thrown out of the lake I of mud are gradually forming walls. It I is indeed plea an; tc es ape from this dismal indosure to breathe the free air once more.
