He woe a florlil man with a pleasing
plumpness of person und possessing
what Shakespeare calls "a fair ronnd
belly with good capon lined.” He sat
in a restaurant ana discoursed of eat

our ancestor^ did! -What are our puny
little snneks of kickshaws compared
With the Gargantuan feasts to which
our great-grandfathers — yes, and our
grandfathers, too, for that matter—sat
down? Their hearty breakfasts of
meat, eggs and often beer to wash It
down; their great midday dinners with
roasts of all sorts/ln abundanceand pud
dings and vegetables in profusion, und
their supperB of cold meats, perhaps n
chicken, cakes to heat the bund und
preserves and pies und tilings Indi
gestible generally, often topping off
before they went to bud with a panful
of apples and a pitcher of elder! Oh,
they were eaters, If you like! And be
tween meals how they did pitch Into
cheese and doughnuts and anything
else that came bandy 1
“These were our grandfathers and
some of our fathers. Going a little far
ther back, see that ‘curious document
descriptive of manners in the last cen
tury,’ to which Thackeray .alludes In
bis English humorists. Here Is wlmt
seven of ’em ate at Lady Smart’s din
ner: A sirloin of beef, a flub and a
tongue. Then came ulmond pudding,
fritters, chickens, black pudding and
soup. The third course consisted of a
hot venison pasty or made pie, a hare,
a rabbit, some pigeons, partridges, a
goose and a ham. Then they topped
off with cheese and drank during the
meal claret, ale, brandy and tea. They
sat at table four or five hours to get
away with this meal and afterward
drank | port and played cards until 3
o’clock' In the morning.
“That wus the way our great-grand
fathers ate and their fathers before
them ate, If they could afford It, und
If they could not they made up In
quantity what was lacking In variety
and quality. Eat, why bless you,
child, we modern men do not know
what eating Is. Perhaps, though, If
uur ancestors had done less eating and
drinking we might he able to do more
of It without the aid of dyspepsia tab

how to udulterate food In those golden
days of gastronomy. However, I urn
a believer In hearty eating If a person
can stand It. Ah, here comes my doa

Doesn't that smell nice?"—®* York

Ingenious 'Wood flats.
The wood rat of the western slopes
of Cascade range Is a curious creature
thnt loves to steal so well that It Is
known to many us the camp robber.
It carries off anything It can lay Its
lips to and Is besides a jolly, reckless
fellow. It does things which rodents
are not given to doing. It will take
knives, forkB and tin plates, cartridges,
cups and anything It can handle la the
line of clothing, towels or gun rags,
which make soft linings for Its nest.
It Is related how a pair of these rats
staked off a claim on top of a hunter's
camp stove and put up the most curi
ous rat house anybody ever heard of.
About 200 yards away was a railway
sbauty, where the section men kept
their supplies, and among other things
was a keg of railroad spikes such as
are used tb fasten the rails to the
ties. The rats took some spikes to
their claim, built up an Iron wall and
lined the Interior with soft stuff. It
Is a curious tact that all the polntB of
the spikes were directed outward, and
they were laid with great regularity
and firmness.—Exchange.

The Boy and the Cow on the stage
Tuesday night,
Was to the crowd a very novel sight.
The Boy tried In vain to get the Cow
to stand,
But tho Cow was not in humor, and
he yelled, to beat the band;
"This old Cow belongs to the Enter
prise Store I"
Of course, the little fellow was all In
\ a flutter,
Or perhaps ho might have said a little
bit more
About tho richness and quality of the
old Cow’s butter,

prise Store.

Wonderful Manner In Which She
Provide* For Her Yonoic.
The manner In which the mother an
telope protects her young until they
are old and strong enough to Join the
full grown bands In their wunilerlugs Is
an Interesting and wonderful Instance
of nature’s providence. These beauti
ful creatures live In pn ijfct.i country
Infested by all kinds; of enemies and
especially prowled over by the coyote,
the gray wolf and the timber wolf,
which subsist upon the young of all
kinds of animals, yet the mother can
easily protect her babies from tbo
fiercest of these marauders. The ene
my most dreaded Is the souring eagle.
There Is a varletyeof cactus, a prick
ly plant which grows In great abuu-
dunce all over the western plains,
which furnishes her the means for this
protection. Horses, cattle, buffalo and,
In fact, all autmals know the danger of
trending on this plant. It gro^rs In.
large patches some four or six Inches
In height above the ground aud forms
a thick inut varying in breadth from
the sire of tho top of a man's hat to
tnany feet. It Is in the center of one of
these patches that the female antelope
prepares a pluce of safety for her
young. The thorns of this cactus,
while very poisonous and terribly pain
ful to every other nnlmnl, for some
reason are almost harmless to the an
telope. The cactus mny lacerate her
legs, making them bleed freely, but
neither the stickers nor their poison
remains, while other animals seldom
bleed, hut retain the poisonous stick
ers In their wounds until they become
malignant sores, causing excessive
swelling of the limbs and very great
and long continued suffering.
When the antelope has selected her
patch of cactus, bucking away a few
feet, she will make a running jump,
bounding high In the air and alighting
In the middle of the patch, with nil
four feet close together, the hoofs
pointing downward. Then, springing
out again and repeating this operation
until she has chopped the roots of tho
cactus plant to pieces, Blie loosens and
clears a space large enough for stand
ing room. She then will enlarge It by
pawing and digging with her sharp
hoofs. Here she gives birth to her
young In undisturbed security, know
ing that she can leave them in com
parative snfety during tho day and re
turn to them at night to give them
suck. Should It be In a locality where
eagles abound, however, the mother
does not venture far nwny, ns the sour
ing eagle often swoops down on the
young, taking them away if she Is not
there to do battle for their lives.—H.

Washington wus a strong man and a

tling was a favorite amusement with
Virginians, many of whom were as
nearly invincible as the ancient Greeks.
Llneolu, too, could boast classic excel

his attf»ntion-“it is a curious thing,
hut that is just precisely my record
when I was a youth. I could oulllft
any man In Illinois, and I never was
thrown. If George was round now. I

able to keep up Ids end against the old
