Knch country has its faTorlte chees* The Swiss ninke the (Jruyere chees? ho known more generally In this countr; ho ns Sehweitzerkase. It is made of goatt milk and is full of holes caused by th or gases in fermentation. The cheese 1 le imitated, but never equaled, here. Th< 10 typical English cheese is the Cheddar first made in the English town afto; le which it is named. It is very lik< '8 American cream cheese. Cheslre Is nn re other favorite English cheese, while tin fashionable cheese of the day is Stilton y a cheese which defies imitation. Sugi :a choose, first made in England, is now 16 made the world over. Its distinguish ^ lug characteristic is the flavoring anc ie coloring of sage, parsley, spinach nnti 10 marigold leaves bruised and steeped. 18 Erie is a popular French soft cheese, c* and Camembert, originating in Normnndy, is another. These cheeses arc cured in caves where the temDeraturp never rises nbove 12 to 14 degrees. 'r They are ready for marketing in May andNovcmber. Roquefort, a celebrated French cheese, is made from the min11 gled milk of goats and sheep that >. browse on the thymc_Aul banks of the i Arno, in western France. These cheeses 1 are also ripened In caves, but the tern1 pernture is kept at 40 degrees. ' Akin to the Roquefort cheese is that * called Qorgonzoia, made in Italy after ' similar processes. It is milder than Roquefort and not quite so good, but it Is sold much cheaper. Another Italian cheese, the Parmesan, is very hard, and is usually grated. It is oftenest used with macaroni. Another curious Italian cheese is the Cacciocavello, or horse cheese, which is delicious, and improves with age. It is cured in the skins used In making sausages and comes in curious, snusagelike shapes. Idmburger cheese, so beloved by the Germans, originated in Belgium. It is extraordinarily rich, being allowed to ripen to putrefaction; hence its horrifying odor in unaccustomed nostrils. Some persons have a saying, "Gorgon! sola is a cheese to swear by, Llmburgcr to swear at." From Holland come the Edam and the pineapple, both made in cleanly manner and very popular.

An elderly lady who lives In her own house at Buttes Cliauiuont, Paris, has discovered that spiders are peculiarly appreciative of inuslc. She has made great pots of them, and her house Is full of spiders of all kinds, on whom she spends her time and fortune, Her proteges ore lodged In a large, airy room, where she lias provided every necessary support for their different webs. Ilcr great favorites arc Immense black spiders, which, with their hairy legs and great bodies, look very repulsive to others. When she Is inclined to show off their capabilities for music, she surrounds herself with a circle of water to keep off their too delicate attentions and plays slowly, softly and In a minor key on the harp. From all corners of the room the spiders run toward her, listening with ovlllonf " " ? * 1'ivuniu IIUl BUOUia she strike up n noisy, gay, Inharmonious strain they scamper back to their holes as though disgusted.

The peasants of Normandy nnd Brittany cultivate the parasite on their apple trees?contrary to popular belief, it rarely grows on oaks?and it forms their most profitable crop.

The peasants, however, denied the impeachment, nnd, as the order is not enforced, thev crow and export more "gul" than ever for the Christmas enUvcnraent of English and American homes. Uitlnet Stronger Thnn Will. A curious story is told of Darwin and snakes, lie used to go into the London Zoological society's gardens, Regent's park, and, standing by the glass case containing the cobra dc capello, put his forehcnd against the glass while the cobra struck out at him. The glass was between them. Darwin's mind was perfectly convinced as to the inability of the snake to harm him, yet he would always dodge. Time after time ho tried it, Ills will nnd reason keeping him there, his Instinct making him dodge. The instinct was stronger than both will and reason. Splendid Inolntlon.
