ROSEBURG REVIEW FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 1887 A MEXICAN DINNER. Questlonable Delicacies Served at a Recent Banquet at Philadelphia. At cadi guest's plate a menu card was placed. The cauls were beautifully decorated by the Mexican artists. Soma of the cards were decorated with minia ture birds made of gay feathers. Other cards were artistically gotten up with straw work woven about the corners, and below on all the cards M as printed iu, Spanish the following: ; C'aldo Mcxicanu. : : Arroz beco. : : Tortillas. Puchcro. : 13 : Mole do Cuajolote. : ' Frulas. Tulque. : Tamalcs. chocolate. : A good many of the guests thought "Caldo Mexicano1' meant cold Mexican and they were wondering how he would be 6erved, when little teacups filled with greasy soup were brought on. Mexican soup is more like the drippings from roast beef than any thing else. The proper way to get rid of the soup Is to drink it. ThcMexicans did. The American guests did not. They snielled it and smiled. Plates containing boiled rice mixed with boiled carrots and hard-boiled' egg chopped fine, were next That mixture was called "Arroz seco." The rice was very red, having been stained in the boiling by the carrots. Some liked it. "Tortillas" followed a flat corn cake that looked like pale boarding-house buckwheat cakes, the kind bonders in arrears usually get. The tortillas were made of crushed com, which was ground into meal upstairs. The process is to lay the corn on a stone and roll it with a stone bar until it be comes meaL The tortillas are baked on little sheets of tin over charcoal fires. The Mexicans rolled the cakes up into roll?, first spreading salt on thorn. Then they ate them much the same as an American would nibble at a lady-finger. a .T a a -rucnero, wtucu came next, was made of fried cabbage, goat meat, fried carrots and fried bananas, and is known a3 a "Mexican-Irish stew." "Ensala"' was composed of lettuce spread thickly with sweet oil. Mixed in the lettuce there were onions chopped fine and a good deal of garlic. Ac companying the salad on the same dish was stewed veal stuffed with almonds. There was a dish served which was not on the menu card. It was called "Chili tiero." It is to Mexicans what a soft-shell crab is to an American. Green peppers were hollowed out and the shell was filled with chopped chicken with a few raisins mixed in it. The pepper was then dipped into batter and fried in a pan of hot lard. This dish was very much in favor. Every body nearly took to the "frijoles," chocolate colored bcaus. They were very tender and were dressed with a sauce that was very platablc. The "frijole" has quite as great a reputation in Mexico as the baked bean has in Boston. The most unique dish served was the "tamales," a croquette made of corn meal, raisins, nuts and f raits. It is boiled in a corn husk and looks a good deal like a boiled pig's foot at a distance when removed from the corn husk. "Mole de Guajolotc." The mystery of turkey was a fricasse of that bird with a vegetable gravy. The gravy was principally hot fat and red pepper, and every body who ate the gravy asked for ice i to soothe their burning tongues. Tho Mexicans smiled and ate the gravy with a relish, dipping their bread in it. The Mexican wine "pulque" was served to the guests in 6mall wine glasses. It looks like milk and tastes like bakers' yeast. It is to the Mexican what bock beer la to the German. It is the juice of the maguey plant, a Epecies of century plant The maguey plant takes seven years to mature. At maturity it la about seven feet high. Then the central stalk is cut off at the base and the Juice of the plant is sucked through a gourd and carried off by the natives in skins. The plant yields about two gallons every day for two or three months after the stalk is cut off and then dies. The juice is put into jars in dark cellars and allowed to ferment for forty-eight hours. Then the pulque is ready to drink. A Mexican can drink four qnarts of it without becoming in toxicated. Very good chocolate in tiny cups followed, with real Spanish cigarettes. The Mexicans puffed the smoke through their noses and their ears and out of their eyes and smoked half a dozen cigarettes in as many minutes, and soon the table was covered with a great cloud of smoke and the dinner was over, the Mexicans rising from their chairs and bowing to the guests, and the v-:rs mechanically imitating the Mexicans. -f hiladelphia Times. Cure for a Bad Habit. To prevent cows from jumping, says Mr. J. M. Stanbrough, cut the lower eye-lashes off close and turn your tow loose, and see it she will attempt to jump. I have had some little experi ence; it seems that long hair immedi ately above and below the eye regulates the sight, hence with the lower lashes cut close, a low fence looks high, and vice versa with the upper ones cut close, a high, fence looks low. There is an old adage that good fences make good stock, and good stock make good neighbors, and the . reverse, bad fences make bad stock, and bad stock bad neighbors. Farm, Field and Stockman.

A Picture of Russian Home lite in the Time or Ivan the Terrible. . In Mr. Nathan Haskell Dole's recent lecture on the "Rise of Russian Liter ature," he spoke of the "Domostroi, or Book of Domestic Management," writ ten by the I'ope Sylvester for the edifi cation of his only son. Auphim and his daughter-in-law lYlagia. It was composed curly in the six teenth century, during the reign of Ivan the Terrible, and throws a curious light on Ru?.-ian society at that time. ' For many years it was the universal varJc mccuin of household duties. It may interest some of the women of Philadelphia who did nol bar Mr. Dole's lecture to see what the old priest laid down as law for the treatment and behavior of their sisters three centuries and a half ago. Mr. Dole's translation was as follows: She must go to church as often as possible and consult with her husband. Husbands must 'teach their wives with love and reasonable punishment. If the wife live not according to her hus band's teaching then the husband must punish her alone by themselves, and after he has punished her he must for give her and give further advice; but they must not bo angry with one an other. Servants and children must be pun ished according to their guilt, and wounds must Ixt inflicted, but after the punishment forgive the sin. But the tiistrcss of the house must look after the servants as to what is fitting for the same. But when it is necessary to rep rehend your wife, your son or your daughter, or to punish them by laying on the whip, punish them not before people, but alone. Strike them not on the car or iu the face or on the head with the lit, nor kick them or strike them with the staff, either of iron or of wood. But if the sin be great, then, stripping off the garment. .apply a little whip discreetly, holding the" hand. Wives must a.-k their husbands about all holy teaching, and be subject to them iu all things. Every day the husband and wife should question each other smd take counsel about ih !, house. She must invo ;u-.j., , only with those whom her husband commands. Sim may converse with guests ahuii her handiwork and about household management, and listen when she sees that it is good, What ic does not know she u:y ask modestly. What ever any one commands she mu.-t '-heat tlie forehead" humbly, and when she goes forth from the Ikhi-h; ho lmi-t tell all tilings to her husband. She may meet socially with good women not for eating and drinking, but for good conversation and knowl edge; she. must take care of her appear ance and not indulge in laughter ;md not gos.-iip: if any one asks her about any tiling he mut reply: "I know not: I have heard nothing about it, and for me, I ask not about unnecessary things and I do not talk about princes, andboyars and my neighbors."' In no wise indulge in drunkenness; a woman may drink beer, Kens, both at home and abroad, but she must not eat and drink secretly away from her husband: the wise woman docs not entertain the stranger without her husband's pres ence. In regard to all things consult with the husband and not with the slave and not with the serf. rhilmh'iihin Call. SUBMISSION OF WIVES. A Social and Domestic Question of Con sldcrable Interest and Importance. How far this submitting unto one's own husband .should be carried, is a question for consideration. True it is that wifely submission is not in much danger of being carried to excess in this age of woman's lights; and yet one sometimes sees an exception in the per son of a meek woman, who, parth through fear, and partly through a mis taken notion of duty, merges her senti ments, her idcn3, her very self in her husband. She loses her own identity, and becomes simply his echo. This would be less deplorable than it is if the husband who thus absorbs her were always a superior character (for such women are always weak aud would not amount to much in themselves). But sad as it is, these oaks to which such tender vines cling are not always the strong supports they should be. When a man is selfish, tyrannical and dishonest, so much so that he even finds himself almost without friends, must his gentle wife, who is capable of winning friends by her own lovely character, renounce every hope of hap piness, of friendship, of the pleasure of society, by frowning upon all who dis agree with him, forsaking all who dis approve his meanness, ami making strangers feel that she is as bad as him self? lean not think it right It is too much for one soul to require of another! Too much in the wrong direction. It is beautiful to see a wife love and seek to save her husband, all the more as he becomes a "sinking ship;" but if she can not save him, if he will deliberaielv sink, she is not, I believe, required to sink with him to the extent of wreck ing her own life. Woman has indi viduality of her own, a character of her own to maintain just as much as man. It is as valuable to her us her husband's is to him: and she is fully as strong to maintain it. The best of men admit that only iii a physical sense is she "the weaker scx;' but a mournful exception is the woman who adds the folly of allowing herself to become the echo of a hollow, brazen vessel, to the mistake of having become his wife.
