TURNING AWAY FROM MEAT In New York Big Hotels Meals Entire- ly of Vegetables Are Increasing in Popularity. According to. the New York Times the diners of the American metropolis are hecoming vegetarians. .Approxi- mately one-seventh te one-fifth of the guests at the hotels here today are of-. dering vegetables for their meals in- stead of meats. All of the big hotels keep a very careful record of the sales of the difterent items on the.menus for ‘each day, and a recapitulation ‘madé: “recently at the Hotel Pennsylvanla re- vealed that a surprising percentage of patrons omitted ‘meat items entirely in thelr lunch and dinner orders. While the percentage for, lunch was much higher than that for dinner, the number- of dinner guests who re- frained from meat’ entirely was also very large. . In the opinion of Chef’ Julien Jac- " quier of the Pennsylvania this is the result of years of ‘emphasi§ on the value of vegetarianism. The vegetari- an, a few years ago, was very general- 1y the butt of the comic papers; but: with the war a great deul more . came to be thought of him by people who found that a thorough]y satisfactory meal could be made from vegetables and at much less cost. Chef Jacquier believes that this is responsible for the many calls given nowadays in the big botels ‘for vegetable luncheons' and. dinners, which have a special place on the menus. ANCIENT. LAWS OF INTEREST Oldest Known Written Code Has Re- cently Been Translated by Eml- nent French Scientist. What is said to be the oldest known written. code of laws in theé world, . probably antedating that of, Hammur- abl by at least 1,000 years, has been discovered in part among the hitherto untranslated clay tablets from Nippar at the University of Pennsylvania mu- seum. . ‘ 'y The Hammurabi code was prepared about 2100 B. C., and was discovered, about 20 years ago on a large diorite stone by French explorers. The laws, just translated by Abbe Scheil of Paris, deal with responsibili- ties of hired servants, reatals, rights of slave women who have borne chil- dren to their masters, punishment for adultery, ete. One fnteresting statute provides that rentals must run for three years:in case & man has ‘taken over a house the owner does not know how to man-- age. This is somewhat obscure and may mean that all rentals were for that term. In any event property could mot be idle or be improperly In case a slave bore children to her master she and the offspring were free, and if the master married the slave the children became legitimate.

We were much interested in the different methods of gathermg the nuts in various islands. In Tahiti the natives climb the trees with the help, of a strip of green, fibrous bark torn off the stem of a hibiscus tree. After knotting the two ends together, the climber slips his feet half through the circle, and, standing with his legs apart, so as to stretch the thong tight, ascends the tree in a series of leaps, with a foot on each side of the trunk. - - ¥A practiced climber will thus mount trees of a very considerable height with, K celerity and- ease which do not suggegt the long practice actu- ally required, On making a trial ofy- self, I found it difficult to climb even 82 much as a foot from the ground. “In its fresh, green state the coco- nut provides a most refreshing drink, but as it grows older the ‘milk’ hard- ens and forms the white inner rind with which we are:all familiar.
