VEST-POCKETDINNERS
CAPSULES THAT CONTAIN ES
SENCES OP SOLID FOODS.
A rill Hakes n dtp of Ten llcef Com
In Tablets and Soups In Bmall Cnp
eulei War Department Kxperlntenti
with Candenied Foods.
OMING genera
tions will dispense
with the cook and
the kitchen. Beef
steaks are to be
done away with,
vegetables will be n
thing of tho past.
"WE&sil an(1 a roast turkey
rcSSj will bo put up In a
(y Bmall packngo no
bigger than a box
of cigarettes. Restaurants are to
disappear, dinners will no longer be
served, and tho time now wasted in
eating will bo saved for more useful
purposes.
AH this is likely to come about
through tho discoveries which tho war
department Is now making In putting
up square meals that the soldier can
carry In his pocket. When the Jap
anese soldiers marched into China each
man carried a cartridge belt and a din
ner belt. In tho latter were stuffed
capsules, pills, buttons and small pack
ages like cartridges which contain
condensed foods of vnrlous kinds.
If tho soldier wants a cup of tea
while on the march, he dropped a but
ton Into a tin of hot water. For din
ner ho could draw a largo variety of
meats for his food belt. A capsule
made the soup and a couple of pills the
fish, always seasoned. For the roast
iho used a few slices of beef which had
been condensed under a thousand pres
sures into a plug like tobacco.
Buttons of various colors supplied all
tho vegetables, n capsule made a pud
ding and another button when dropped
in hot water made a cup of strong
black coffee. It was oven reported
that cognac and whisky had been con
densed Into tablets.
ThlB system of furnishing tho march
ing soldier with a cartridge belt that
will make him independent of the com
missariat is now being experimented
upon by the United States government,
Tho great question of food supplies
which so puzzled Gen. Grant and Gen.
Leo has been solved.
Huge wagon trains of flour and beef
"on the hoof" are to be things of the
past. Armies in tho future can cut
themselves off from their base of sup
plies, as they will carry their supplies
with them.
Their movements will not be impeded
by droves of cattle brought along for
food, for the cattle In the form of little
tablets, will repose In bolts or knap
sacks, and victory will not wait upon
the cook. The soldiers can even dine
Tvhlle fighting.
After putting a cartridge in his gun
the private can put a capsule of roast
beef In his mouth. Ho can have beef
tea whl!o charging the enemy, Boston
baked bean3 during a pause In tho bat
tle and a condensed mince pie In the
very hour of victory. These nro some
of tho staples which governments are
now supplying to their men.
But the benefits of condensed food
tablets can be extended to private citi
zens. Only a few men have the sense
of ta3te and gourmets who really en
joy a 'meal are rare. It Is estimated
that every man now wastes three hours
a. day eating. After he has eaten he
forgots all about "tho pleasures of the
table" and only remembers that an
hour is gone.
All this time can bo saved. The food
buttons and pills already contain every
necessary element.
The small button labelled "a cup of
tea" Is already sweetened. The beef
steak pills contain tho duo amount of
salt and pepper. Tho soup capsule
has all the condiments. From this it
is but a step to put a whole dinner Into
ono small package.
An ordinary New York tabic d'hote
dinner can bo put up in a form no big
ger than a pack of cigarettes which
will be sold for 25 cents and may be
carried In the ve3t pocket. This will
embrace everything from the oyster to
tho coffee, including the wino and the
Inevitable olives.
Breakfast buttons will Include coffee
and rolls, oatmeal, fruit, and a small
chop or steak with perhaps vegetables.
You will be able to buy a dozen as
sorted lunches, running from the sim
ple sandwich and glass of milk to the
most elaborate Hotel Waldorf spread.

A l'ajrlncr Cute.
That famous steer caso of Penley vs.
Bcsso Is now being tried for tho third
time at the Supreme Court In Auburn;
and It Is estimated that each of tho liti
gants has expended already a matter of
about $400 In contesting over tho re
mains of a bullock worth, at his best,
5120. Both are wealthy men, however,
and they are In It for the principle of
tho thing. On Tuesday, during recess,
a brother attorney came and, speaking
to the two opposing counsels who wero
sitting In tho attorney's room, said:
"Look out in there. Your clients are
having a talk together. If you don't
watch out they will bo settling that caso
between themselves." Each attorney
started In mock alarm and rushed Into
tho court room. Tho Joke lasted the
rest of tho forenoon. The first timo the
caso was tried the Jury disagreed. The
second time the verdict was for the
plaintiff, but the law court set aside
tho verdict, and now they are trying for
tho best two out of three, not Including
tho dead heat. Lowlston Journal.

A PRETTY OII1L.
dot the net of Fire Harvard Men at
Their Own Game.
There was a lively little scone on ono
of the west-end lines last week, Bays
tho Boston Post:
A pretty girl got on a Trcmont-hotiso
car at Hancock street, and there were
five Harvard men on tho bnck platform
when sho got on. Inside sat only two
elderly ladles, who looked severe
There was a llttlo whispered conver
sation among tho boys and a good deal
of suppressed laughter. Then they ar
ranged themselves gracefully and
stared at tho girl. They intended to
make her life a burden to her bofore
sho reached town. It was well they
laughed then, becauso It was her turn
later, Sho never glanced that way,
even. Sho was absorbed in tho fine
houses on Massachusetts avenue.
When they found this llttlo scheme
didn't work thoro waB some moro pri
vate conversation, and then came tho
coup d'etat. First ono fellow camo in,
took a seat opposite and began to stare
at her. Then tho next one followed a
few moments later to do the same
thing. Very soon oil the five wero
ranged opposlto her, staring with tho
united strength of ton eyes. Sho had
only two, but they were good ones, and
did ns well as moro would have done.
She was reading tho bromo-seltzer and
Ivory-soap signs until they wero all
nicely seated, and then sho changed
her plans.
Sho evidently understood human na
ture, for Bho took tho weak point nt
which to open her attack. Sho lpokcd
at tho leader'B feet. Thoy were nicely
booted feet, covered with the latest in
patent leather, but they seemed to bo
old, ugly and Immense before that fel
low got out on tho back platform again.
Tho next pair of boots wero stouter.
So was their owner. Ho only Bhuffled
his feet a llttlo at first and tried to put
them up his trouser legs. Ho couldn't
manage this, and so ho tried tho wood
at tho back of tho seat. This was not
exactly practical, either, so ho brazenly
placed them straight out In front of
him In the aisle. The conductor Btum
bled over them and seemed to strike a
corn, for tho owner drow thdm back
with an expression that was not an
gelic. But tho girl's expression did not
change. And her eyes were still fixed
on those big shoes of his. Then ho re
membered something ho wanted to say
to his patent-leather friend nt the back
of tho car and ho went out.
Then sho began on No. 3's feet. Ho
had a crack on tho side of one boot, and
ho knew It beforehand; therefore ho fell
an easy victim to tho disease. He
thought ho hntl twenty cracks In his
shoes beforo ho joined his friends on
the step. He felt that they wero as full
of holes as a sieve, and examined them
privately to see Just how they did look.
Four and five gave up the fight to
gether and rejoined their friends grin
ning Bomewhut sheepishly.
When sho got off tho car Bho .smiled
a little, but she did not look at ono of
the young men who stood back to let
her by.
As the car moved on ngaln ono of
them said: "That girl has tho evil
eye."
And they all agreed.
Dead llany.
Before the eyes of the doomed man
the fatal knife is tested. At a mere
touch It swiftly descends.
Tho victim cannot forbear to shud
der. "You take life all-fired easy," he mut
ters, hoarse!y.
Tho executioner presses his hand to
his brow. Luckily ho has placed a cab
bage leaf In his hat to protect him from
a sudden rush of blood to tho head.

ALCHEMIST FABLES.
PRETTY THEY WERE AND EN
TRANCING TO ALL.
The Shy Philosopher' Htone For I.oiik
uud Weary Yearn It Yi'n Nought for,
hut Never Found Itcllcf In the
Tranimutatlon of Metal.
HE theory Hint gold
could bo produced
artificially from
other metals waa
first recorded In the
fifth century after
Christ; beginning at
that tlmo tho prob
lem of finding the
Philosopher's Stono
that la, a sub
stance by which
base metalrf could be turned Into gold
began to exclto public Interest. Most
alchemists trace tho origin of their art
back to Egypt, and recognize ns the
first to practice it a certain Hermes
Trlsmeglstus.
Though many of IiIb supposed writ
ings are still in existence, nothing defi
nite Is known nbout hia life. Alchemy
was largely developed and practiced
from about A. D. 400 to the year 642.
From tho Egyptians It passed over to
the conquering Arabs. It was not long
bofore they began to acquaint them
selves with the sciences, by contact
with the conquered people, producing
celebrated scholars In mathomatics,
natural sciences, and, above all, In med
icine. Quito a number of Arabians turned
their attention to chemistry, and here
It received tho new namo Al-chemy;
they added to the formerly employed
word "chorale" their article "al." Hi
tho Arabian school at Seville the cele
brated Arabian philosopher and al
chemist, Geblr, made a great reputa
tion, and at this tlmo It Is particularly
Interesting to trace tho progress of al
chemy from the Arabs In Spain to tho
remaining countries of Europe, espe
cially Franco, Germany, and England.
Tho high schools of tho Arabians In
Cordova, Sevlllo and Toledo wero fre
quented by men from all lands desirous
of acquiring knowledge, and chiefly af
,ter the pattern of theso institutions
woro tho universities of France, Italy,
and later those of Germany, shaped.
As early ns tho thirteenth century ol
chemy was spread over tho entire
Northwest of Europe and was practiced
by Albertus Magnus In Germany, Roger
Bacon in England, and others.
Albertus Magnus (von Bollstadt), the
most eminent scholnsticist of his time,
was then equally prominent as philoso
pher and alchomist. Although the
Pope assumed at first an opposing attl
tudo toward alchemy, there were, nev
ertheless, numerous ecclesiastics who
were tho first to master the art, and
mainly in tho monasteries did it find a
home. But tho thought to produco the
Philosopher's Stone, and by means of
It to procure Infinite riches, was too al
luring for it to remain hidden In the
narrow sphere of cloister life.
' With the beginning of tho seven
teenth century, after the failure of sev
eral experiments had become known,
societies sprung into cxlstenco whose
purpose it was to discover the produc
tion of tho Philosopher's Stone. Tho
most celebrated of these was the "Rosl
cruclans." Another was the "Nurn
jberg Alchemical Society," which was
founded in 1654 and is noteworthy on
account of its having had for its secre
tary the eminent philosopher and
statesman. Leibnitz.
I Even long after the science of chem
istry had branched out Into the medical
direction the search for the Philoso
pher's Stone was continued, and ex
pended into the Phlogistic epoch, yes,
oven Into tho ago of modern chemis
try, as it Is well known that Goethe
practiced alchemy with groat zoal In his
youth. Even a book printed as late ns
1832, relating to the history of nlchomy,
is concluded with the following words:
"There exists a chemical preparation
by means of which other metals mny bo
changed Into gold." Consequently "a
Philosopher's Stone."
Hut tho Btar of nlchomy was no longer
at its height. With tho triumphs of n
Copernicus, n'Koppler and a Galileo In
tho sphere of nstronomy, and a Newton
in that of mathematical physics, a doc
trine like that of tho Philosopher's
Stone could not stand, so it gradually
sank Into oblivion and wau forgotten,
except In history.
Only nfter the time of Geblr accurate
descriptions of this mythical stone
came to the surface. At the beginning
It was pretended to consist generally of
a fireproof powder of various colors,
and only lator It assumed tho shape of
a precious etono. Especially Ilnlmund
Lulll repeatedly speaks of It as "Car
bunculous," and according to Pnracol
sub It consists of a ruby-red, transpar
ent crystal "which Is as floxiblo as roalu
and brittle ns glass," Somowhore later
it was principally employed in the form
of u powder, and was frequently called
"trlxturo," also "elixir" or "maglateri
um." It must also bo remarked that
many alchemists mado a distinction be
tween two stones differing in their ex
terior appearance, one for the produc
tion of gold and tho other for silver.
Tho belief in the transmutation of ono
metal Into another no doubt resulted
from tho fact that It was noticed If
molten copper is mixod with zinc It nt
talns a beautiful yellow color, and In
former years, when people were not par
ticular about noticing smnll differences,
tho obtained brass mny have been mis
taken for a kind of gold.
Perhaps also tho circumstances that
many metals themselves contain gold,
or that thoy used for their fusion ex
periments sand containing gold, with
out their knowledgo, gavo rlso to
these Illusions. Without noticing these
sources of orror It could not be ex
plained how notoriously excellent and
honest alchemists outlines believed
that they had the Philosopher's Stone
In their possession.

PARIS ON ITS EXHIBITION.
The Hitter DUcuilon Jtnclng llctween
It Mupportcrt ami Opponent!.
Pall Mali Gazette: Though Paris
seems doomed to tho exhibition of 1900,
tho discussion concerning tho utility
of tho vnst kermcssQ is continued with
Bonio bitterness. M. Maurlco Barres,
the unfatlgued champion of decentrali
zation, still leads tho opposition with
onorgy and Bound argument. Some ap
plaud this holiday of half a year; oth
ora execrate It. Tho reasons urged
upon either sldo aro often the same,
and generally Irrelevant. Thus, for
Instance, M. Gervcx, a painter, is on
tho sldo of exhibition, becauso tho ac
cepted plan requires the demolition of
tho Palais do 1'Industrlo. M. Bouguo
roau, another painter, deplores, with
tears in his voice, tho outrage which
threatens tho paints of his own tri
umphs. Who shall decide when tho
experts thus wantonly differ? M. Gcr
vex, however, upholds tho exhibition
upon nuother ground. Competition, he
finds, Is an ftlmlrablc stimulus, and ho
Is euro that artists will accomplisn
mnsterpleces In their frantic strugglo
against tho world. The argument of
M. Roll is ingenious it oblique. Ho de
sires tho exhibition because (ho says)
tho exhibition will compel tho build
ing of a picture gallery. And tho pict
ure gallery will remain after tho ex
hibition 1b finished. Aud then the
pictures which arc now being rapidly
destroyed in the Luxembourg will bo
removed to the gallery of tho exhibi
tion, and will at last find salvation.
That is to say, tho exhibition of 1900
will save tho pictures of tho Luxem
bourg, which one did not know wero In
danger. Truly a pretty argument. If
only tho intcrmediato links will hold!
Tho men of letters nro likewise divided.
M. Arsene Houssoyo, for example, re
gards the immense Industrial picnic as
tho ultima ratio of fraternity; where
for ho would give It his academical ap
proval. With a keen conso of humor M,
Aurelien Scholl dismisses tho project
In a dozen words. Do you Hko Sunday?
No. Well, then, an cxhltmion Is a
Sunday which last six months. And
there's an end on't. If a moro serious
argument Is to your tnste, turn to tho
letter of M. Phllilbert Audebram), who
tears the offending project to pieces,
and moat pertinently suggests that If
the republic must celebrate tho be
ginning of tho now century, it should
plcrco tho Canal des Deux Mers, and
thus secure tho permanent prosperity
of Franco. Tho most of the deputies,
of course, are on tho sldo of the pic
nic, and M. Jacques, the member of
Paris, though ho sees the grave dan
gers of a decennial fair, insists also
that an exhibition is an Industrial
tonic, warranted to revive a failing
trade. Yet It was reserved for M. De
loncle, never tlw wisest of men, to ad
vanco the most preposterous argument
In favor of tho exhibition. "The ex
hibition of 1880," he said, "procured
for us the Ruoso-French alliance. Who
knows what 1900 will bring forth?"
Who knows, indoed? But does M. De
loncle believe that the Czar was ever
moved to an alliance by a gigantic ba
zaar? Jn Russia, at any rate, poli
tics are not tho sport of children.
