At a very early period the oriental jvoro familiar with a kludof pastry, a mixture of flour, oil and honey, and for centuries pastry making went no further, even among the nations In the south of. Kurope. Rut In the beginning of the middle ages a change began to take place in the method of mixing the Ingredients, and some1 other substances were brought Into use. Iluttor, eggs and salt found their way Into pastry making, and the result was a manifest Improvement. Paste next came to be used as an inclosure for meat, seasoned with spices, etc. Afterward It went a step further, the next use being for the Inclosure of creams, fruit, preserves, etc., and later still It began to take the many fanciful shapes In which 11 has since been commonly found. In the early stages of Rngllsh cookery tho pastry cases wen; called coffins or "colTynes" and wero made In various sizes from "grot coffynes with lowe llddos" for the "tartes of lllesche" to the "smalle cofl'.vnos" for "tartolettes" of "flsehe or lllesche," mixed with "sttif of boylled flgges ground nnd good powdure and spices."

Just as he camo in front of a public house a few doors from his home the "fare" stuck his head out of the cab window and ordered the driver to halt. "I say. cubby, I've dropped a 'sow' It must be on the bottom of the cab. Just pull up at that 'pub.' till I run In and get a match, so that I can find the coin." "All right, sir," said the cabby and pulled up opposite the door of the tav ern. The fare alighted and had taken Scarcely three steps In the direction of Ihe "pub." when, lo. Mr. Cabby whip ped up his horse and flew away Into the darkness of the night, carrying with hhn, as he supposed, that sover eign snugly concealed In the cushions of the eab.-London Tlt-BIts. How Snake Poison Kills. The action of poisons upon the sys tem Is and always has been one of the most Interesting of subjects. Just how and why It kills have been determined through a series of experiments made by scientists. The following descrip tion Is one of the best and most lucid of any that has been given to the pub lic: "The venom may be roughly sepa rated Into two parts, one acting upon the blood and .the other upon the nerves. When Injected it Immediately begins to create terrible destruction hi the blood vessels. The walls of the veins are eaten away, and an Internal hcmorihngc takes place. While this Is going on a portion of the venom, Is attacking the nerve. Particularly susceptiitle to Its ravages is tho 'vaso motor' system, a nerve center which controls the muscles rff respiration. Paralysis takes place in these organs, nw ' vl,t generally dies from an Inability to breathe." Hxehangc. A Pleasant Sort of Sea.
