What Is dripping Dripping, as everybody knows, la the staple food of the young British and his heroes all fed on bread and dripping till success smiled on them. George Moore was once a The poet, Alfred was said to resort to dripping when his poems had bad luck. Yes, everybody knows that dripping is supposed to be the Juices, the essences, that fall from roasting meats. That is the supposition. But what really is dripping that the poor of England buy by the pound and smear upon their bread lieu of butter The question, perhaps, will never be answered, but a partial solution Is given to it by the fact that a London poorhouse recently bought at a ton tons of dripping works. Alfred Noyes used to tell a dripping story. little ho would begin, bitterly about the bread and dripping that formed his daily breakfast. It'll kill he whined at last know it'll kill you What do I've been feeling bad lately, and now I know it's all this dripping what's the cause of the trouble. read it in a pure food rubbish, I dare say And what, precisely, did you read in this book, whined the urchin, constant dripping wears away a What is said to be the first Buddhist monastery set up in Europe Is that which not long ago was established In the canton of in Switzer- land, high above the village of No- overlooking Lakes and It is a curious stance that the founder of Buddhism in Switzerland should be not an but a German.

In addition to the well- known Dutch and Normandy babies disporting themselves in blue, bright green or red garments upon a pure white or a pale green are the loveliest of mugs, cups, porridge bowls and bread and butler plates in fine china, hand painted with flowers and animals. Then there are sets bearing small Orientals flowered kimonos and queer shoes, and Chinese potteries showing what manner of dishes the Chinese child eats out of.

Friendship. A little boy got out of bed wrong one morning and was so hateful day that his father finally found It necessary to him. A little while after tho ordeal was over his mother found him out back of the barn tenderly caressing and pet- ting an old ram that was pastured there. Her heart was touched by this display, of kindheartedness on hie part and she watched him tenderly for some time.

FOR THE BIG CITY Advice Given Those Who Only Have to Leave the Home Town. Metropolitan blemishes and draw- backs are not often emphasized by the class of business men who are per- haps the most Interested in bringing strangers to hotel keepers. However, a New York has had the frank and friendly Inspiration to prepare a card of for to each of his guests. An early suggestion has to do with watches and money. Don't wear your timepiece loose on a fob, and don't believe that a hip pocket Is as secure as a bank. Why carry a roll, anyway, when the hotel office has a safe Next, the affable stranger. Don't let him persuade you that he Is an old friend. Next, life and limb. Don't believe that you are as swift as an bile. And don't tote a is bet- to Next, traps. Don't go too into unknown places; the way out Is not always so straight and simple as tho way in. Yet, on tho other hand, don't go to the harassing extreme of cautiousness and suspicion. The city Is not bad Just because It Is big, nor is every one you meet necessarily a con man. Big cities, speaking are alike.

CAT AN EXPERT Has Learned Meaning of Line in Water, and Has the Patience of the Perfect Angler. Cats are known to be fond of fish, but it is not every cat that is willing to out and cairn enough fresh fish to furnish his own meal and supply the family breakfast table with the food. Such an animal exists In Miami, Fla. however, and daily watches a hand line which his owner places in the water. When the cork bobbles the cat dashes to the office of an amusement company, and sets up a loud mewing. Following the footsteps to the place where the line has been dropped, whoever is on duty at the office hauls in the fish to the tuneful purring of the proud and sat- eat. Some months ago the cat chanced to be on the dock when a was pulled In. He learned that his favorite food came from the water and was caught on the end of a line. Since that any line with one end the water and one on the dock has been a source of unfailing interest to the cat. The cat's patience would put tho renowned Izaak Walton to shame, for he will spend hours sitting by a line without stirring. Sometimes the cat will sit by the side of a fisherman and will tell his human companion by bis mewing when a fish Is beginning to nibble at the halt before the fisher- man has suspected that tho bait is being dallied with.

SCIENCE OF HOTEL KEEPING Swiss Youth May Be Said to Have Revolutionized Methods of the European Hostelries. Like many another mighty enter- prise the hotels a modest beginning, and the whole Idea had its origination in the brain of a Swiss farmer boy, Cesar whoso father tilled a small holding. The son, however, had larger ideas. Taking up hotel work at the beginning In a very minor capacity, he developed a most wonderful sense of color, form and taste in every respect, and he brought the art of hotel keeping in Europe to a higher pitch than it bad ever been be- fore. Indeed he revolutionized hotel keeping in England and France, and that revolution has gradually shown Influence all over the world. first enterprise was the hotel In Paris, which he started about The second venture was the Carlton hotel of London, and the next was the Hit of London. In each of the many hotels already built, build- or planned for there is a ate local company which has furnish- ed the bulk or the whole of the money, while the central organization, the Carlton Investing company, in all cases holds the common stock and a controlling Interest In this way all the local companies are made to work unitedly and in the interest of all.

Wonderful Piece of Anatomy Is the of Man's Descent From Vegetarians. The tongue Is really a group of muscles, some running from root to tip. others Any one of these muscles can be used or combination with the others, so that we can move the whole In any or shorten hollow or arch It. The tongue is by the mucous made by the mucous that lines the mouth and by saliva from the salivary glands. The mucous of the mouth is controlled by the nervous system and can be great- disturbed by worry or fear. That is why when we are very much or suddenly frightened our mouths become so dry we can hardly swallow. The surface of the Is close- covered with little points. In each one of these points Is the end of a nerve of taste that runs from the brain to tho tongue. These little points are called taste bulbs, and they are most abundant on the sides and the tip of the tongue. They are fewer on the bark of the tongue, be- cause that part of It Is used mainly to roll food and throw it into the throat.
