A gourmet as he mixed a salad of chicory said: “The world’s queerest salad, and possibly its most delicious one, is eaten by the Inoits of northwest Greenland. It is a salad of undigested moss from the stomach of a fresh killed reindeer, a bitter, sharp, stim- ulating salad, as good for the diges- tlon as an electrical massage. The Inoits live almost exclusively on fish; hence salads are a favorite dish with them. But no salad in their minds compares with that which they wrest from the slaughtered reindeer. They say this salad Is crisper, tenderer and more appetizing than any other, and they say it wards off indigestion. They fight for it, they spend thelr last penny on it, quite as the Indians do with @rewater.”—Exchange. A Witty Reply. A witty but not overindustrious Celt Was one of a street gang.

Some cows, for instance, 8o as to have your own butter and cream.” “No-o,” drawled his host, “don’t care about butter or cream.” “Some chickens or ducks, then. ‘You surely like fresh eggs?” “No-o, don’t care for eggs. But I've sometimes thought I'd like a sheep. I rather like kidneys for breakfast.”— Liverpool Mercury. * The Palisades. To see New York city from the Pall- sades is to witness the multiple beau- ty and wonder of the Palisades them- Selves.
