WANTED-A NEW MEAT.
Swans and Peacocks Are Worth Raising, 'U
Some WIld Ani~mtils May Ue Better.
[From the Speetatof.]
The lack of variety in those meat!
which, whether flesh or fowl, must al
ways form the groundwork and basii
of an English bill of fare is a wani
keenly felt, but most difficult to Teme
dy. Among the thousands of tons ol
foreign game imported yearly, there i
hardly a beast or bird which may not
be had in better quality and condioio
at home, except the prairie-bird and the
quail; for those canvass-backed ducks
which escape the keen search of the
New York dealers and find their way
across the Atlantic alight only on the
tables of City companies and million
aiies, like the caladrus of old, that ap
peared only at the deaths of kings. Yet
there are probably- twenty people in
this country who have eaten canvas
backed duck for one who has evei
tasted swan, or rather cygnet, the finest
water fowl for the table, alike in size
and flavor, a bird easy to rear, most
prolific, rivalling even the breast the
teal, without the fatal drawback of that
excellent little bird, that no one has
ever been able to get enough of it. Even
now, though so neglected by the world,
swans may be had from the Norwicb
.Swan Pit for X2 each. They weigb
some sixteen pounds, and with them iE
forwarded an ancient recipe for cooking
them, "done into rhyme by a person ol
quality."
Another "fowl'- which was once re
served for the tables of kings, and is
now hardly thought good enough for
Aldermen, is the peacock. What roast
swan is to roast goose, such is roast
peacock to roast turkey. Many owners
of county houses who keep peacocki
and let them run wild and nest in their
woods and shrubberies, take little trou
ble either to fatten or cook the pea
chicks. If they did, they would per
haps take more pains to rear these birds
for the table. The meat is very white
and of exceedingly fine and close grain,
and has the truegame flavor, with none
of the stringiness of the common tur
key.
But flesh, and not fowl, is what is
mainly desired to widen the possibili
ties of the dinner table. Fatted swaas
or peacocks or American turkeys might
be increased and multiplied without
affording more than an occasional re
lief to the monotony of the menu and
the brain-searching of houskeepers.
What is wanted is some new and large
animal, whose flesh has a character of
its own which would readily distin
guish it from beef or mutton, and an
excellence which shall make it inde
pendent of any special treatment in
cooking-something which shall com
bine the game flavor with the substan
tail solidity of a leg of mutton. An
increase in the quantity> of venison
reared in this country naturally sug
gests itself. It is objected that deer can
never pay to fat for food, because the
annual growth of their horns reduces
them so- much in condition as for a
time to- make the. venison worthless.
Butathis appXeedlfothe bucks;stags
might be kep)t like 'bullo.cks,: n44doe
venison might still be reineati'e..
Bnt swan, peacock,.andvenisori -are,
after all, only revivalstof the~ old b.ill of
fare. To flnd a new meat, we must
take stock of the world's resources of
animal food, and inquire, after due
survey, if there does not still exist
some neglected quadruped which will
furnish what we seek. Roughly speak
ing, our main supply of animal food is
drawn either from the rodents, the
ruminants, or the pachyderms-repre
sented by the rabbit, the ox or sheep,
and the pig. To vary the supply at
our disposal, we shall probably not be
able to go beyond these limits; for the,
general experience of civilized man has
already pronounced judgment on the
question, <md science supports the ver
dict. It is no good to eat a wolf, for the
wolf has already got the benefit of eat
ing the lamb, and left no surplus for
us. Of three great tribes, the rodents
may be dismissed from our search; for
those that are not already used as food
are either too small to be useful, as the
lemming or the guinea pig, or too re
pulsive in appearance, like the capy
bara, or in habits, like the rat. Of the
pachyderms we find only one which is
domesticated for food, the dear familiar
Berkshire or Yorkshire piggie. The
larger pachyderms are too pig; the
smaller, like the peccary, too savage;
the wart hog.and other African varie
ties, too repulsive. Clearly, then, we
must have recourse to the list of rumi
nants if we are to find one to add to the
bill of fare.
At first the choice seems wide
enough. It embraces all the deer tribe,
the wild sheep and antelopes, goats and
ibexes, which are numerous; but all
have a rank and disagreeable flavor,
which must prevent their coming into
the list of first-class food. The possi
bility of extending the supply of veni
son we nave already considered. The
wild sheep would probably differ too
little in flavor from mutton to make it
worth while to domesticate them,
though those of the Himalaya will
breed freely in confinement. 'The ante
lcopes, therefore alone remain, and it is
a'nong their number that the animal
wanted must be found, if it is to be
found at all.
If the accounts of African hunters
are to be relied on, thbe venison obtained
from the larger kinds of antelope found
in South and Central Africa is really
ex'cellent, that of the koodoo, the oryx,
and the eland being the best. Perhaps
the highest and most modern author
ity avail able for quotation on the sub
ject is Lord Randolph Churchill. His
Lordship's verdict on the eland, the
flesh of which is said to surpass that
of all other antelopes as much as Welsb
mutton does Lincolnshire "teg," will
be of material interest inquiry. Less
educated palates have pronounced it
"pecnliarly excellent, having in addi
tion the valuable property of being
tender immediately after the animal
is killed, which makes it much appre
ciated in Central Africa, where th(
meat usually as tough as shoe leathe
and nearly as dry." In addition to thE
quality of the meat, an eland has thE
additional requisite of large Pize. A
full grown eland is as large as a two
year-old shorthorn, and has far morn
the app.arance of a high-bred bullock
than an antelope. Its horns are short
and straight, pointing backward, and
and it has a dewlap like an ox. It car
live on the hardest fare, and soon grows
very fat on good pasture. Best of all.
it becomes quite tame, and is easily ac.
climatized. The writer remembers tc
have seen a splendid group of these
animals in the Jardin d'Acclarnatation
in the Bois de Boulogne, an old bull
nearly*16 hands high. a cow, and two
young, apparently a yearling and a
two-year-old. They were in good con
.dition, though living in a paddock with
only an open shed to shelter them from
the weather. The late Lord Darby
kept them at Knowsley Park for many
years. It seems to be a waste of the re
sources of nature to allow these fine
creatures to be exterminated, as they
soon will be, in our new American em
pire. Why should we not save the
eland, the barmless antelope, the xoo
doo, and other larger African antelope
from extermination-arid even try to
rear some in England? The experiment
may be recommended to some of the
noble owners of parks and chases who
have already done so much to preserve
our own deer and wild cattle from ex
termination. America has allowed the
bison to perish. Shall we not take
warning, and preserve for our own use
the splendid African antelopes which,
within the memory of man, were a
thousand times more numerous than
they are to-day?
TO KIsS OR NOr TO KISS ?
rhysicians Say the Pastime Is Dangerous.
Certificates Suggested.
[From the Baltimore Sun.]
Next to jumping off express trains,
going up in balloons and monkeying
with buzz saws kissing seems to be the
iost risky and dangerous pastime to
hich the human family is given, if
statements of well-known physicians
are to be believed.
A cable dispatch from Berlin states
that twenty-two different species of
bacteria find lodgment in the human
mouth and that he wants kissing
abandoned. Those who still persist in
the dangerous practice, he suggests,
should be muzzled with respirators un
til they see the error of their ways and
are willing to reform. He suggests no
substitute.
Dr. William H. Crim, when his at
tention was called to the cablegram,
said that kissing was a prolific cause of
the spread of infectious and contagious
diseases, particularly such ag dipth
theria, measles, whooping-cough, scar
let and typhoid fevers and consump
tion. He produced several ponderous
volumes in which the subject was
treated, and in which some cold-hearted
statistician had figured it out that
.32-10 per centum of certain diseases
were 'transmitted by the apparently
harmless kiss. Dr. Crimn said he didn't
expect that any amount or argument
woul check the habit which has been
going on since the foundation of the
world, but he suggested that it would
be well for those who are much given
to the exercise to obtain certificates of
health, which they could show to each
other at the beginning of each per
formance. Anyone who could not
produce such a certificate should be
ruled out of the game.
Dr. Fannie E. Hoopes, who has just
r.eturned from abroad, agreed with the
Berlin physician. She said that the
habit was a very dangerous one indeed,
causing the spread of infectious diseases
through entire. families, and often
through whole neighborhoods. She
also thdught the habit was foolish and
senseless, and said she was opposed to
it on . principle. She cited several
cases: where diphtheria and typhoid
fev.er.*ad been spread by kissing, and
said:.htab many mothers have in
structed their nurses not to allow their
children to be kissed when the nurses
have them out in the streets.
Women Wanted!
Between the ages of fifteen and
forty-five. Must have pale, sallow
complexions, no appetite, and be hard
.ly able to get about. All z swering
this description will please apply for a
bottle of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion ; take it regularly, according to
directions, and then note the generally
improved condition. By a thorough
course of self-treatment with this val
uable remedy, the extreme cases of
nevous prostration and debility pecu
liar to women, are radically cured. A
written guarantee to this end accom
pan ies every bottle.

There are records of elephants that
have lived for 200 years, and an age of
150 years is not regarded as so very old
for an elephant. It takes about a
quarter of a century to get the elephant

She is well proportioned and intelli

but very few have known of her exis

Englishmen were much puzzled to
find in Scott's journal the expression
"Nos poma natamus"-"How we
apples swim," and there was a grave
discussion of its significance in a fa
mous literary weekly, until finally an
army officer came to the rescue with
the fable from which the phrase is
taken. Then came two letters fron
New York saying that the writers had
known the fable from boyhood, and
marvelling that it should be unknown
to any civillzed human being.
The English laws, or rather uiagi -
trates, punish offences agains,i?)oerty
more severely than offences agalIst the
person. The stealing of any article,
however small, is punished often with
several months' imprisoxinent at hard
labor, while the costermonger for
"jumping oi his mothei" gets bt a
few days' incarceration, minus the
hard labor. Wife beating, a favorite
practice among what are termed the
lower classes, is scarcely punished at
all, unless the wife dies. Even then
unless death occurs immediately, the
brute of a husband receives but a com
paratively light sentence. On the
other hand a deliberate murder per.
petrated with a deadly weapon, or by
poison, is followed by the hanging of
the murderer within a few weeks. Re
cently a murderer was hanged and
buried within a fortnight of the death
P.nd burial of his victim.

The legitimate drama is not appre
ciated in rural Maine. A company
that was organized at Fairfield last
week to play "Romeo and Juliet"
lived two nights. Romeo is now at
work in a sawmill, while Juliet
struck a job in a plain, every-day cot

Canary birds are a good deal troubled
by mosquitoes. The toes of the birds
are amply provided with small veins,
and as the membrane between the toes
is extremely thin an observant mos
quito may see h-s favorite fluid -cir
culating in plain sight. A bird with a
swollen hind toe was brought to a
bird fancier recently and he pro
nounced the trouble poisoning from a
mosquito bite. - He said the thing was
not uncommon.
The doctors and citizens in the town
of Stuttgart, Ark., are at loggerheads.
A short time ago the leading physi
cians of the place formed a protective
league against those citizens who fail to
pay their doctor's bills. Every doctor
in the league is prohibited from visiting
a patiant whose name appears on the
black list. This action aroused the in
habitants to a high pitch of indigna
tion, and over 300 of them assembled
in mass meeting and agreed to boycott
the offending doctore.
While ascending Pike's Peak by the
new rack railway, about one person in
200 is affected by the rarity of the air
at the high altitude. The indications
of distress are itching and redness of
the nose and then blackness under the
eyes. A woman who was dying ap
parently on a trip recently was sent
back on the locomotive to the foot on
the mountain, where she recovered.

Baldness ought not to come till the

DON'T GIVE UP
The use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. One bottle
may not cure "right off" a complaint of
years; persist until a cure is effected. As a
general rule, improvement follows shortly
after beginning the use of this medicine.
With many people, the effect is immediately
noticeable; but some constitutions are less
susceptible to medicinal influences than
others, and the curative process may, there
fore, in suc:i cases, be less prompt. Perse
verance in using this remedy is sure of its
reward at last. Sooner or later, the most
stubborn blood diseases yield to
Ayer's
Sarsaparilla
"For several years, in the spring months,
I used to be troubled with a drowsy, tired
fgeling, and a dull pain in the small of my
back, so bad, at times, as to prevent my
being able to walk, the least sudden motion
causing me severe distress. Frequently,
boils and rashes would break out on various
parts of the body. By the advice of friends
and my family physician. I began the use of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla and continued it till the
poison in my blood was thoroughly eradica
ted."-L. W. English, Montgomery City, Mo.
"My system was all run down; my skin
rough and of yellowish hue. I tried various
remedies, and while some of them gave me
temporary relief, none of them did any per
manent good. At last I began to takc
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, continuing it exclusive
ly for a considerable time, and am pleased
to say that it completely
Cured Me.
I presume my liver was very much out of
order, and the blood impure in consequence.
I feel that I cannot too highly recommend
Ayer's Sarsaparilla to any one afflicted as I
was."-Mrs. N. A. Smith, Glover, Vt.
"For years I suffered from scrofula and
blood diseases. The doctors' prescriptions
and several so-called blood-purifiers being of
no avail, I was at last advised by a friend to
try Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I did so, and now
feel like a new man, being fully restored to
health."-C. N. Frink, Decorah. Iowa. *

THREE
REASONS
WHY.
Has it ever occurred to you tat, in
selecting a company in which to asure
your life, there are three points wg
if correctly ascertained, will de -
beyond all question the best compan
for you to choose ?
Here they are:
FIRsT-SAFLTY.
SECOND-CONTRACT.
THmD-RESULTS.
I. SAFETY (or Strength) is all im'
tant; for an insurance contract is either
tered intofor a long period of yearn orfor
In the case of an insurancecompan
with an individual or with any other b
organization), strength is determined by
amount of assets ovEE AND ABOVE ALL
BLrIEs: or, in other words, by the
As the surplus of the Equitable Life
ance Society of the United States on.
31st, 189J, amounted to Twenty-three amd
Quarter Millions (a sum many millions
excess of the surplus held by any othei
company in the world), and as the
ratio of ass to liabilities is 125 per
I. e., $125 to meet each $100 of indebtedne(
percentage greatly In excess of that of SD7
other leading company), the question
greatest safety must be decidbd in favor
the Equitable.
ASSETS.--..-.-...--S 19,243,744.:
LIABILITIES (4 percent) 95,593,297
SURPLUS..-.....$23,740,447
2. CONTRACT (or Pfecy).-This deter
mines your rights and privileges. The
Tontine policy and application of the Eqi
table Is free from any and all restri
after one year, is absolutely incontestable'
after two years,gives a choice of six methods
of settlement at the end of the stated peulo,
and is payable immediately on receipt- of
proofs of death. Compare this with the:4
policy of any other company, and thei
verdict will necessanly be in fa;vor of the
Equitable.
3. RESULTS.-The settlements tfiat are
being made on the twenty-year Tontine rol.
icies of the Equitable Society, maturing in
1891, show a cash return to the pollcy-holder
himself, IN ADDITION to the protection far
nished by the life assurance for twenty yers,
of all the premiums paid, with interest
from 2% to 7 per cesit. per annum
(according to-be kind of policy and age of
the assured). No other company can show
such results, and hence it is that the Equita,
ble's business has outstripped that of every
other assuranceorganization
