Almost any dish which had to rec ommend It rarity, costliness, indlgestl- 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. Standing Rock. 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.

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.
