The Gallovidians of old had a re- markable war weapon known as the Galloway fiatl. It seems to have been indigenous to this corner of Scotland, and in the traditions of the province it occupies # prominent place. The tide of battle has been turned on more than one occasion by the skillful man- ipulation of the Galloway flail. The handstaff was a tough ash sapling about five feet in length, and the soople, the par’, for striking the barn floor when threshing, was made of iron, about four feet long, with three joints, equi-dfétant from each other. No swordsmaatould withstand attack with the fial One stroke would shiver the sword to pieces and leave the unfortunate individual at the mercy of his opponent. Then the soople with its iron joints would en- circle its victim and crush him just as a boa-constrictor would. wi Am American Speciality. Ice cream is cheaper in Burope than in America, but that sold in the sa- joons usually, lacks the indefinable qualities that Make it so attractive at home. A varied and recent experi- ence with the iee creams of Europe induces the conclusion that only the “sorbetto” one gets on the Piazza of St. Marks in Venice approaches the delicious perfection of the ordinary every-day ice cream of America. Per- haps this is because the Venetians themselves eat ice cream, whereas in most other European cities it is re- regarded as an outlandish concoction, prepared onl yfor the peculiar palate of the stranger. One occasionally finds a soda fountain in Europe, But the soda water, like the ice cream, is unsatis- factory. It is like that found in many of our own couniry towns; the drink is either froth withopt figvor, or flavor without fizz, or lukewarm, or something else equally disappointing. To be eure there are other drinks to be had. In England there are the pep- pery ginger ale, bottled lemonade, and verious mineral waters, while on the Continent there is the everlasting sherbit. Im Italy and other countries countries one can get perbaps half a dozen different fruit syrups, which are served in small quantities in lafge glasses, the water filling up the glass from the water bottle. The country foiks of the north make various sorts of light beers from roots and herbs, but these cannot be had at public places in cities, as birch beer, root beer, sarsaparilla, and the like can be H had in the United States. It must be remembered, however, that no other | people on earth so persistently drench themselves with drinks, in all seasons | and at all hours, as do Americans. Anything like the scene at a big soda fountain in any American town on a summer's day, is not to be found in any other country. « Roney as Food, : Honey has been known from the earliest times. The Scripture makcs mention of it, and pagan writers cele- brate its virtues. It was called “the milk of the aged,” and was thought to prolong life. Honey was also used in the embalming of the body after death. This food, as useful as it is delicious, was esteemed most highly by the Greeks, who celebrated its vir- tues alike in prose and verse, so that the fame of Attic hopey has been transmitted unimpaired to our own day. Used in all kinds of pastry, cake and ragouts, it was also esteemed as a sauce. Pythagoras, in the latter portion of his life, was a vegetarian, and lived wholly on bread and honey, a diet which he recommended to his disci- ples. Ahd this gentle philosopher reach- ed the ripe old age uf ninety years be- fore he departed from life. The true source from which honey is derived was only discovered in later years. Virgil supposed that its de- licious sweetness fell from heaven up- on flowers in the shape of gentle, in- visible dew, a belief which he shared with Pliny and even Galen. It was left to modern observers to study with enthusiasm plant life and bee life, and learn from @hem some of the most wonderful lessons of nature. Honey was often served by the an- cients at the beginning of a banquet in order that the uncleyed late enjoy to the full its exquisite fiavor. It took the place that sugar occupied after the discoverjes of the p: ties of the sugar cane, so that all con- serves, cakes and beverages were de- pendent on honey for their sweetness. Apicius prepared it for seasoning pur- poses in this manner: Boil eight pounde of honey with one pint of wine, skim, add pepper, spikenard, saffron and dried dates. This mixture was kept in jars to use as occasions re- quired, Plight of the Pamunkeys. ‘A modern instance of an entire na- tion in search of eligible wives and husbands by the wholesale is furnish- ed by the interesting, but little known, tribe of Pamunkey Indians, living in eastern Virginia, who are indeed lit- erally the “first families” (F. F. V's) of the Old Dominion, being lineal de- scendants of the true aborigines. So blue and exclusive is the Pam- unkey blood, so unmixed through cen- turies with any other strain, that the tribe is dying out, and now feels the urgent need of a matrimonial alljiance with some outsider stock in order to they scorn a union with their white as well as with their colored neigh- bors, they have @ecified upon heroic | = GHRISTIAN ENDHAVORERS, =” The Chicago Delegation Want the Head: quarters in the Windy. City. Chicago, J 8.—A local paper says _ End@eavorers of Chicago, go- ing y to the great convention oi their society at Boston, will take witk them the hepes and prayers that the headq fers of the society be changec from Boston to Chicago. Francis Clarke made the seciety a possibility in Bos- ton, but its membership and usefulness to the young people of the whole coun- try has inereased to that extent that more central headquarters are needed. Boston, it. is said, is neithef in close touh with the South, North nor far West. Christian Endeavorers are weak in the South and westward to the slope. The membership is small in both sec- tions and there is a growing feeling that with héadquarters in Chicago the society would become truly national in scope and easily extend its domain in the cotton fields and the mining and fruit country.” CUBA’S INSURRECTION.
