Almost any dish which had to rec

blllty and. to our wny of thinking, nas
tiness was sure to take with the Ho
man epicure. And if he were unable
to made It costly any other way he
would add powdered precious stoues or
gold dust. Nero dinod on one occasion
from a peacock which was sprinkled
with diamond dust, and specimens of
that bird dressed with gold or with
crushed pearls were by uo means n
rarity at the triclinia of the moneyed
Romans. A dish of parrots’ tongues
wns a great delicacy. But a dish of
parrots’ tongues which had been capa
ble, when In their proper place, of
framing words was of almost Incal
culable value, which Increased In a di
rect ratio with the vocabularies of the
defunct parrots. Another bird for
which the Komnn epicure was in the
habit of paying fabulous prices was
the phenecoptrlx, which is believed to
have been the ptarmlgnn. It had its
home in the most northerly parts of
Scotland and Norway! and ns this
made it hard to get at the Romans ap
preciated It nil the more and put it In
the same rank with ostriches, buz
zards and peacocks. The tongues of
these birds were specially prepared, to
gether with the brains, and took the
place which a hors d’oeuvre would now
take.
Garrick nr Author.
Writ lug of Garrick's literary efforts.
I suppose not every one knows that he
was tlie author of such well known
lines as:
Their cause I plead, plead It In heart and
mind;
A fellow feellns makes one wondrous
kind.
Or this again:
Let others hall the rising sun;
I bow to that whose course has run.
Or again:
Hearts of oak are our ships,
Hearts of oak are our men.
But I suppose every one knows his
epigram on Goldsmith, "who wrote like
an angel and talk'd like poor roll.” au
epigram that conveyed only half the
truth, as Garrick would have been one
of the first to admit—London Sphere.

Habit.
Habit is one of the world's control
ling influences. More men are swayed
by force of habit, unconsciously per
haps. than any other motive. The hab
it of doing certain things in a certain
way grows from beginnings so small
as to be scarcely noticeable until It
forms a cliuin that cau scarcely be
broken. The habit of right or wrong
doing becomes a master, and a more
exacting muster could not be found.—

Th* Word* on t Clear Box.
Whnt mean the various words which
are stamped on the lid and sides of a
cigar box? These are not mere fancy
names, but terms actually descriptive
of the cigar. On the lid Is the name of
the cigar. The front of the box de
scribes the shape and size, as “con

These may be combined, as “conchas
speclHles,” "conchas Anus,” to stute
both shupe and size. At the Imck of
the Ikix. where the lid turns over, Is
stamped ttie quality of the cigar—"su-
pertina," "finn,” "flor," "superior" and
"bueno," being the terms In the de
scending scale. The color of the cigar
Is declared on the right hand side or

Things are so arranged In this world
that happiness ns n profession must
ever be a failure. It cannot be found
by seeking It. It is n reflex action. It
Is Incidental, a product which comes
from doing noble things. It Is impos
sible for a person to he really happy
by making pleasure a profession.—Suc-

Honrs of Strep.
The belief that the hours of sleep
should be artificially restricted is con
trary to ordinary good sense. If the
human body does not need sleep for
the upbuilding of Its tissues it will not
call for it. A rule of tioalth which can
not be wrong Is to sleep if possible ns
long us any inclination for it exists.
The erroneous view on this subject is
undoubtedly due to the fact that when
the mind and body are thoroughly rest
ed it Is often ditllcult to arouse the
mind from its comfortable lethargy.
On the other hand, the man who Is
under a mental strain and sleeps only
five or six hours al night Is keen and
alert soon after awakening. But It Is
an unhealthy activity. His nerves are
at a high tension. He is on edge, so to
speak. Such a strain long continued
results inevitably In a nervous lireak-
Snmr ,if Them Do.
The master had been giving n class
of youngsters some ideas of adages
and how to innke them. Presently he
said:
“Birds of a feather—do whnt?"
“Lay eggs," piped a small boy before
anybody else laid a chance to speak.
The man who never has any
thing to do is not a good man to
apply to when you want something
' important done.

“On the water.” said u grizzled old
bnymnn who stood smoking his corn
cob nnd surveying the liny the other
day, “when you see a thunder storm
rising you want to keep an eye on the
lightning. If you see It ill the distance
striking down farther and farther to
the right from where you first saw It or
further nnd farther to the left, this in
dicates that the storm is working to
the right or to the left, nnd it may
puss around you. But If you see it nil
the time coming down in the same
place and at the same time getting
brighter and brighter, why, that Indi
cates that It's coming straight toward
you, nnd this is the time, son, when
you want to make for home or get In
your sail and make everything snug till
the storm passes over.”—Exchange.

Ttie Hnninn Head.
An Irishman once defined the human
head as "a bulbous excrescence, of spe
cial use to many ns a peg for hanging
a lint on. as a barber's block for sup
porting wigs, as n target for shooting
at when rendered conspicuous by a
shining helmet, as a snuffbox or a chat
terbox, as a machine for fitting into a
halter or guillotine, as a receptacle for
freaks, fancies, follies, passions, preju
dices, predilections—for anything, in
short, but brains.”
