Ile-Iijehoj? is good, at least for a change, end it used to 1k well eooke in a small tavern in tho t.hctto of ltome, to which artists frequently resorted when their fcirita were high and their funds low. According to an aged South Italian sports man, they should bo killed in the woods and Immediately Ektnned, and then al lowed to hang for a few hours, and. after being trussed with their own quills, be roasted before a bbarp fire. The sturnng should be made of their own fat, finely chopped with breadcrumbs and such sea soning as stiits the cook's taste. Of course Bo one with a sense of decency would think of eating a hedgehog which had been employed for months in hunting blrck luetics in a cellar and was only lnngbtred becnuse be showed feigns of a:lbi strenfth. Jnakes nro difficult question. The force of civilization is against them in every way. though in a few north Italian towns they aro considered delicacies, tid thoe v.-ho" have eaten of them declare that they aro superior to eels, ns they aro less rich a;:d have a more delicate tlavor. Ono vot;U not like to give v.u opinion without f-outo practical exjKjrience. and no ono can lx expected to travel to the nighborbxJ f (Jernvi in tho early autumn for the mere pr.rpse of eating stewed serpent. Many other animals occupy a similarly dubious position. Jays a:iJ crows are vaid to m :!:e excellent soup, even when thev are v..-!l stiicken in years, though their l:e.-h is otherwise worthless, lint why do wo accept the calf and reject the fosil? Why do we regard bear's paws as a dainty anil roasted cat as r. crime? Tastes, of course, diti'er; but this is not a matter of taste, but of imagination. There are persons who cannot eat duck and green peas, and others who aro unfortunate enough to find no charms in oysters or caviare they are to be pitied, not blamed. London Saturday Review. Publicity of Private A flairs. There were never so many books in th3 world as there are now, and never were mankind so gregarious.

I remember a talk I onco bad with him. We were at the samo hotel and I asked him to give mo arulo for walking. "There are three rules," he Bald. "In ordinary walking the arms should be al lowed to swing naturally, and in this way the whole body is exercised and invigor ated. In fast walking this movement of the arms is correspondingly increased and greatly facilitates tho fieed and comfort of tho walker. Fast walking is univer sally recognized as ono of tho principal branches of athletics, but no port en genders bo much controversy or Is bo unsatisfactory to its votaries. It is, of puirse, an artificial gait, and thero foro requires a judge, who is usually a superannuated walker, with de cided ideas on the Bubject. If these judges could only bo brought to believe that as no two men are alike, bo no two have an exactly similar stylo in walking and that a walk may bo fair and yet dif fer widely from their own ideal, walking would assume tho rank in athletics to which it i.s entitled, but 'to err is human,' and a man may train conscientiously and honestly, endeavoring to cultivate an ir reproachable style, only to bo disqualified in Lis first race. 1 have often heard men highly praised by competent judges of walking, whom equally good j;:dgcs had pronounced incapable of fair walking; in fact, in no other sport is there room for such wido variance of opinion among pre sumedly holiest and intelligent men. ''i'ho fundamental principle of fair walking is that ono foot must bo on tho ground all tho time; this is Imperative, as can easily be demonstrated by trial. A violation of this rule must result in a run. Another idea on which judges hhould lay great stress is t hat tho knees must not bo lent when tho feet strtko tlio groynd, and remain rigid until after they le.fvo it. This is absolutely neces sary in fast walking, although a man can wiillc fairly with his knees bent if ho tries to, but nothing can ha more awkward or unnatural. This rulo necessitates a third, which is that the heel of tho forward foot strikes tho'ground simultaneously as tho too of tne rear foot leaves it. This gives rise to tho popular expression, 'heel and too walking.' Any one who observes tiicso rule:-; will walk fahly." 1). J. lie (irath in Doston Globe. Lt-sier "kVallaclc'ti Perfect Coolnesn. M. Wallaeli was known in private lifo an the concentration of coolness. This characteristic is illustrated by an anec dote in Howard Carroll's "Twelve Fa mous American j." Wailaek was playing in "Ilorae." Just afi-r uppcaring disguised ns Col. White, und being ordered from the houso of his father, who does not know him, u num ber of persons in the audience shouted excitedly: "IxHik behind you! Look Ijehind yon!" Mr. Wallack quietly turned and noticed that on the stage mantelpiece tho candle had burned down almost to tho socket and ignited the paper which was wrapped -.round it. This was in a blaze, and k curtain which hung above it was oa the point of taking tv. Tho danger was imminent, but the actor was equal to the occasion. With out the least show of excitement he drew tho candlestick away from the curtain and held it, while the burning wax fell fast upon his unprotected hand, and all the time continued to deliver the lines of his part, thus completely reassuring the audi ence. When the danger whs past, to loud ap- fdause he said, fciniply, of course inter ining the words; "Well, the governor has turned me out of his house, for which I am exceedingly sorry; but I at least have tho satisfaction of knowing that I have been instrumental in Baving the es tablishment from destruction by fire." Detroit Free A British OSlrer's Criticism. A distinguished British officer, writing to a private friend on the death of Gen. Sheridan, says: "My conviction is while Sheridau was every inch a soldier ho was not a cavalry officer and had no idea of how cavalry as cavalry ere and can bo useful in war. The country ho knew was not a country where cavalry could be used. Sheridau was a first rate mounted infantryman who too- op tho Confeder ate Gen. Stewart's Stnart'sVj lino of ac tion, and having unlimited resources ia men, horses and material at his back, did most admirably and has loft behind him a great name in the United States, never to be forgotten by any who value tho Union as restored. " Now, it is perhaps well to see ourselves as others teo us, and I am therefore glad to be able to cite these words of a gre;t and acknowledged authority for the bene fit cf those whom 1 Lava listened to in Europe with some av.o when they averred that the United SLctes cavalry to this day aro not, in the German, French or Eng-li.-;h sense of tho word, cavalry at all, but mounted infantry. Loudon Cor. Nevr York Times. Market for Ilumau Hair, There is at present n scarcity of fancy human hair in tho market. As I said, tho scarcest hair is pure white, and its value is constantly increasing, and if it is"im usually longthat ia, from four to five feet tho dealer can get almost his own price, while if it is of ordinary length it is worth from GT3 francs to o0l francs an ounce. The fact tLat pure white hair is tho court coiffure throughoiit Europe keeps the demand for it very high. It is much prized by American women . whoso own hair is white and who desire to en rich its folds, for white hair is held to give certain distinction to tho wearer. There is no fancy market for gray hair. It is too common- It Is used to work into wigs of persons who are growing old. Still, the woman who shot herself through the heart the other day because her hair was turning gray was a foolish creature. She could easily have found, you know, pleasanter ways of dyeing. Emile Nou veau in Philadelphia Times. Area of Far Famed Siberia. Siberia itself is a far more' extensive country than most people imagine. Mr. Keenan says it could hold the entire ter ritory of the United States, with the great annex of Alaska included, and then leave room enough for all of Europe, outside of Russia. Russia's Asiatie conquests, by the acquisition of Chinese and other ter ritory in Tarioussars, have carried the southern bounds of Liberia far southward, where the almond and the orange can flourish, while its northern limits are up on the frozen Arctic ocean, adjoining Alaska.
