Some say, however, he never got it to satisfy him self. lie was very fond of wines, fish, game and eggs. If he found that the eggs were not fresh he had a delicate habit of throw ing them at In's housekeeper, llis aim was not always go<>. sometimes they flew out ol the window and landed on passers by who failed to appreciate the honor of being pelted with eggs oven though by a great genius. lie imagined that lie was a fine cook and once he invited a party of friends to a meal that lie himself had prepared llis friends were surprised ,ti see him, ladle in hand, wearinp a white apron and a night cap on his head. The soup was mis erably thin stuff in wliicl there floated a few globules ol grease. The meat was tough be yond description and .the veget aides were a horrible green mess.
