The dally supply, which comes by airplane express, is about to be doubled, according to Jean Sovranl, manager of the Cufe Parlslen in the hotel, who says that the demand is growing, and only a day or so ago Sir Hall Caine, who had a taste for frogs, was disappointed to learn that the day's supply was long before exhausted.

The Savoy mannger hus had difficulty In Increasing his dally orders for snails and frogs to keep pace with the demand in London, nnd It is declured that the Englishman and not the Frenchman is now the lurger consumer of these delicacies.
