ROYAL APPETITES. 1
Hie Kaiser a Simple Hater, While the
Czar Likes Quantity and Quality.
The simplest royal eater, the
King with the largest appetite

man William II. is
said to be extremely undiscrimin-

appetite. either with This King is Humberto not the case the

Austrian Emperor. They are
diiiiciles at the table, and in every
way different from tho King of

and who lias a singular
penchant with for a beefsteak served
onions.
And which of all European sov¬
ereigns the has dono most to advance
art of dining to tho dignity of
a fine art?
It is the Emperor of Russia.
He curiously combines quantity
and quality. His appetite is large
and his taste delicate. Tho office
of imperial caterer at St. Peters¬
burg is no sinecure. The caterer,
if hard worked, is well paid. Of
course, this chef is a Frenchman.
Strasbourg birthplace, and has* France tho honor glad of his
is to
emphasize the faql that when he
had to choose a nationality ho re¬
mained a Frenchman. Tho Tsar
knew the treasure he had secured,
gave him tho rank of colonel,
which allows him to bear a sword
as well as a stewpan, and, recog¬
nizing liis patriotic sentiments,
considerately which glossed over tho rule
should compel his chef to bo
a Russian subject. Colonel
Krautz, though imperial caterer to
the Emperor of all tho Russias,
remains a citizen of France.
The Rattlers.
The structure from which the
rattlesnake takes . his name—the
rattle—consists mainly of three or
more solid, horny rings, placed
around the end of the tail li. Those
rings themselves are merely dense
