On North Coast of Siberia the Natives Prefer It to Other More Nat ural Foods. In several places on1 the north coast of Siberia tle natives eat wood, not beciaiuse. they uist, but because they like It, says the Lancet (London). Wood Is genlerally eatenl evenl when fish Is plentiful, their favorite dish be ing prepared by scraping off thin lay ers ilimediately under the bark of liirch log.s, chopping thei line and boll ing theml up with snow. It generally turns out that dietetic hablis which at first sight seet curl ous have i rational baisis. The vir I tit' of cod-liver oil no longer rest on empirical experience and at vague idea tIt its ellieacy was proportional to Its nastiness; the reputation of fresh vege tables was gained in the days before the Dutci taught us to grow turnips, and hardy cabbages. and when some thing Ilke scurvy wais an annual expe rience of the early spring. It is interesting to guess the ren son for w'ood eating. The cellulose whlch forms so large a parl of a herbivorous diet Is now recognized as being a subsidlary source of energy through the fatty actids produced in the stomach and bowels by ceilulose splitting bacteria. But the modifled foris of ceilulose which formi tlie mass of tree' truinks are hardly attacked by tile bacteria of the alimentary cafnal. It is possible that'the Siberians have by practice and habit so altered their intestinal flora that they can deal with lignin with advantage, but this seems a troublesome way of getting energy wh)en fish and milk are avail able, and it appears hardly likely that the expanation of wood-eating lies ilong these lines. Bu1t if the habit suggests at the 1110 ment no rationale, it is curious to note that it falls in line vitJi the tastes of some other animals. The fondness of ralits for bark and the immediate suhiJacent tissues is well known. It is, periaps, worth noting, too, that these same invaluable experimental animals are peculiarly fond of hard, woody leaves-as, for example, holly, gorse or hawthorne, and sometimes seem act usally to prefer them to cabbage or milk thistle. Ponies also arer apt to be possessed of a devil or some curt ols appetite, and will set to work on big forest trees and kill them by clean ing off the bark and conducting tissues down to the hard wood. These and other examples of sImilar tastes sug gest that there is solething partleiu larly good in the outer layers of trees, and it is natural to think that it prob ably resides in the young conducting tissues rather than In the outer bark. Of its precise nature it Is Idle to speculate. Orchestras in the Steerage. "Times have changed," said Antonilo, as 1he twirled his partner to the rhythi of musIc. "When I come over five years ago I no can wait till ship land. Now-music twice each day-this good ship I" Anyone with a discerning eye would see that tImes have changed in thle thlirdl class sectIon, remarks tile New York Sun. Insteadl of the old listless, hlalf-frightenedl attitude of those whio knock alt our gates, there is gayety and spontaneous fun In the steerage nowv. Imiprovemlents In accommlnoda tlon and deck sports on tile big liners account to some extent for the change. But tihe great~st of these changes Is music. Tils Innovation is a potent factor for frIendship, common Inter est and haippiness. Youngsters from villages In Czecho slovakia, dlark-eyed bambinos from Oleily ; chlatteiring, brighit, quIck little citizens of France-all of them listen to the music with a kinship of spirIt. And when thle orchestra turns from "pieces" andl the decks are enilvenedl by3 dan1ce music, their eider-s show their aplpreciatio~n andi enjoyment.
