Death of Its Orratnt Maker How the
Cuom Liven Am Simla Fat-Apocryphal
Starr of Diinisa Ths Famous I'Im of
Rtnubnrg-Olvlns Them a SouL
At Colmar, in Alsaco, died In his 71st
year a worthy bourgeois named Jean
Mangold, who, in tlie opinion of oil save
Sumo incmlieni of tliouiedicnl profession,
di'served well, not only of his own coun
try, but of tho wliolo world. Cohuar,
tliuuittlUoC'olumluriuof the Itoinuiis,
next to Strashurg, is unsurpassed for the
fubrirntion of "pates do folo gras." Ths
friends of the Into SI. Mangold, indeed,
who wus for ninny years tho leading
pastry cook at Coliimr, claim that his
pies were even sutierior to those made at
Htrasburg. M. Mangold was a poet to
hoot, nml cotnMJHcd a largo number of
local idvis, satires, vaudevilles and songs
for music. But it will lie with his pies,
and not with his poems in his hand that
he will prohahly go down to postesity.
It might ho desirahlo in the outset to
stigmatize as wholly itiocryphul tho story
to which Alexandre Unions tho elder, in
his "Dietionnuiro do Cuisine," has given
currency as to tho liorrihlo tortures In
Dieted on tho Alsntiun geese in order to
fatten their livers to tho degree required
by tho pastry cooks. Starting with the
postulate that tho liver of the bird can
only bo fattened by tho tumefaction of
tliut organ, and Unit for pie making pur
poses tho goose livers should be ten or
twelve times the normal size, tho author
of "Jlonto Cristo" goes on to say that
the wretched biieds nro nailed by their
web fii t to boards, that their eyes nro
nut out. and tliut thev nro incessantly
CTfTciTwiTu iKATuded nuts 'and deprived

STUFFING TUB UVB BIRDS,
Another alarmist, improving on Alex
andre Dumas, asserts that the nailed
down geeso ore placed before a raging
tiro and allowed to drink as much water
as they liko, thus leading to enlarge
ment of the liver. As a matter of fuct,
tho birds, liko capons and turkeys, are
no doubt systematically crammed,
usually with a panto made of Indian
corn and millet; but there is no more
truth in the wild stories of tho nailed
down feet, tho blinding and the semi
ronating in front of an ardent iiro tliun
thero is in the tales that turtle soup is
mudo of conger eel and the sauce culled
soy frotn cockroaches.

pasties of fatted goose livers ore a
tiallo-Roman survival of Apiciun origin.
The mode of fattening tho geeso was
somewhat cruel. Tlie birds were cooped
in solitary confinement in very narrow
cnges; three times a day thoy were
gorged with maize, and, on tho twenty
second day of cramming, a spoonful of
poppy oil was added to tho corn; water
was freely given them, hut it was alwnvB
mixed witli sweet wort from the
brewery. At tho end of forty-two days
tlie iiixise hecamo so fat as to be in dan
ger of suffocation und wns therefore
killed. Its proper weight should then be
alxmt sixteen pounds, out of which the
liver Bhoultl weigh tlurty-two ounces.
Another epiicker but more eqnivocal way
of fattening the geeso was to mix anti
mony with tho farinaceous paste witli
wiucn tlie birds were cruuuucu.

Mot So HhiI as We Seem.
It is trim that in those earlier ages men
died for faith, principle, ideas; but so do
they die for tliein in this ago. Every
day throughout tho world men ore tak
Hying leaps to death liecauso of their

track in ironl or the rnpuiiy moving
train und flung two little childrcu from
it. out met his own death under the mur
derous wheels if the iHmderous machine,
died Imviiiisu of his idea of duty. It was
not his duty to tliug away his own life
for that of others, but he thought it wan,
and he did it. Self sacrilice, unselllsh
nessof the highest and noblest sort, is
not of any particular age, hut of all ages.
Tho spirit of compromise is the spirit of
selfishness, nnd it is not an exclusivo
growth of the present time.
Indeed, it would lie dilllcult, if not im
possilile, to find any other period of tlie
world's history in' which the spirit of
charity, of gixxl will toward men, was
more sentient or activo than it is today.
It is not only in this country, but in all
countries, that benevolence tlows in a
steady stream from the rich to the poor.
Tho land is thick wilh great charities.
We need but look nlut nny great city
liko this to recognize how strong and
broad and deep the stream of charity
Hows. It is epitomized in scores of in
stitutions kept nliva at a most enormous
cost for the helping if those who need
help; there are hospitals, homes, asy
lums, refuges, schools numberless, which
nil represent the world's unselfishness,
its iiU'ralily and charity. This ago is
not woino but iH'tter, than those which
went before it, because t here is ever a
potent spirit abroad in it helping and
improving it. Religion, education, social
usages, ore nil employed in shaping the
world to l ttcr cnils.'iind they are doing
it effectually. Puiludilpbia' Telegraplb

If one loves a half hour of quiet med
itation, a withdrawal from tho pomps
and vanities of lifo, nn awakening of the
higher thoughts, ho should visit the great
nicture of Munkacsy, "Christ llefore
Piluto." Every faco and figure Is Impres
sive; the rabble thirsting for a human
lifo, tlie solitary, svmputlietlo woman,
the scheming, vlnillctivo high priests,
the stern and pitiless Pontius l'ilnte,
Jesus of Nazareth, friendless, forsaken,
a supremo dignity In his attitude, a dl
vbio resignation Uxn his noble brow.
We see at tho tlrst glnnre that it Is
useless to hope for justice or mercy from
that tribunal, and this fueling increases
in intensity tho longer we gazo into the
hard, cruel faces surrounding the Christ.
A way with him, condemned before ho is
heard by that voice of tho icople which

fice for un unworthy worldl As we
leave this wonderful picture, looking
backward again and again, and find our
selves by tho closing of a door trans
planted from tlie First to tho Nineteenth
century, we aro haunted by a conscious
ness that the spirit of tho cmcillxion has
come down with us through all these
centuries.
There is not a year, thero is scarcely a
day, but that some innocent soul is
hounded to the death by tlie voice of tho
people. Circumstances furnish the vic
tim, publio opinion usurps tho place of
judgo, accuser and witnesses, tlie
thoughtless is-ople take up tho cry,
"Away with him." tho cross Is laid upon
his shoulders, it is finished, and tho mul
titude goes its way. This is tho fact to
be remembered, that tho spirit of per
sedition still lives; that by our careless
words, our lack of sympathy, our blind
adoption of current Ideas, our failure to
speak out Ixxlly for tho right, we en
courago and support this spirit "Christ

llio llullna Lady.
A young woman mado her way to her
seat past all the peoplo in tho orchestra
seats of tho Lyceum theatro a night or
two ago, attracting unusual attention,
because she had left her hat in tlie ladies'
room. Slio was young und plump, and
had rn( 'n black hair .lint fell in a clus
ter of tight ringlets over lier brow. Slio
was not particularly good looking. Her
fuco was too stronglv marked and full of
strong churncter to be femininely beauti
ful. One of tho habitues of tho theatre
determined to iind out what the other
ladies iiad said of her in tho buzz that
greeted her upix-uranco, so between the
acts lie usked every man he knew what
tho lady ho hud with him had said when
she saw tho bare headed leader of that
fashion which all men dream of, but
scarcely hopo to see established. These
aro the comments no got:
"My wife says sho must bo fast."
".'She looks like a baboon,' my girl
said."
"My companion says, 'If jhe wants to
attract uttention so badly, why doesn't
she weal trousers, like l)r Mary Wulkcrl" "
"She's got pretty hair; that's why sho
does it."
"Well, she must want to rnako a show
of herself."
' Deep in their hearts every woman in
tho house envies her her pluck for com
Ina in that wav. lor it's right, and if
only some swells would do it we would
all iw glad to leave our hats oil."
Tho utterer of this sentiment, so dia
metrically opposite to all tho others, was
a young married woman, tho wifo of a
musio publisher. When tho theatro
goer heard this, ho took tho publisher
over to the hotel across tho way and
said, "1 want to drink your health.

Surely, this is enough; but there fol

That portof tho ancient provence which
la now called Los Douches du Khoue is
a flat and barren estuary of that river,

Roman cainpagnu, uninhabited, dry and
waste, with smull olive trees alone re
lieving tho monotony, although projects
are on foot for irrigating llio country as
far as the Aiges Mortos, or dead farms.
But a little further south the real desert
begins, and a more roixillant section oi

Across theso desolato plains tho inde

hard, smooth and whito across the gray
plain.
MAGNIFICENT RUINED aRCUES.
As we approached the river tho pros

Tho lowest row, where the river passes

Syrup"
For Coughs & Colds.
John F.Jones, Edom.Tex., writes
I have used German Syrup for the
past six years, for Sore Throat,
Cough, Colds, Pains in the Chest
and Lungs, and let nie say to any
one wanting such a medicine
German Syrup is the best.
B.W. Baldwin, Carnesville.Tenn.,
writes : I have used your German
Syrup in my family, and find it the
best medicine I ever tried for coughs
and colds. I recommend it to every
one for these troubles.
R. Schmalhausen, Druggist, of
Charleston, IlL.writes : After trying
scores of prescriptions and prepara
tions I had on my files and shelves,
without relief for a very severe cold,
which had settled on my lungs, I
tried your German Syt dp. It gave
me immediate relief and a perma
nent cure.
