wonder that nis services com mand high prices said the culinary king of a restaurant The chef he continued begins ns a boy as apprentice to a master For several years lie works under the veg etable cook He learns how to make mashed potatoes that look like white roes how to cook and to arrange all the vegetables from the truffles down in a hundred fine and beautiful ways lie gets no salary He gets only his board Then for a year he studies raw meats lie learns how to select them and how to cut them tip He can tell at a glance for Instance the genuine salt meadow mutton from the false Along with this raw meat course goes also a study of fish and of game and of poultry how to stuff dress lard truss and so on Next for a year at a small salary he stands before the rang learning how to broil fry roast and bake lie now knows the foundation of his art and is admitted Into the pres ence of the chef himself only assist ants have taught him so far The chef teaches him to make soups pastries Ices and the more complicated pud dings and soufflees Three or four years Is none too long a time to study here Ten years of hard work should turn a ouick apprentice Into a good chef Such a chef without difficulty earns from 23 a week up to S130 If he gave half as much time to the bar the church or medicine he would earn thrice as much New York Press A DRAMATIC ARTIST The AVI nn In sr Ways of tho Mnn Dress maker of Pari The dressmaker is a slim young man with a long nose and big winsome eyes Wearing a gray frock coat and patent leather shoes corseted and pow dered and perfumed he is more than a man he is a dressmaker He is sat urated with dandyism It is not of an offensive kind Ills manners are a strange mixture of humility and in solence for he is at once a salesman and an artist And he talks talks talks bending his slim body into polite curves gesticulating with his thin white hands rolling his eyes in tlieir painted orbits the while he fumbles silks and velvets and satins and lace and wool The mere man who comes into a dressmakers shop of an afternoon in Paris no one goes to the dressmakers save only in the afternoon begins by sneering at this fantastic creature That mood does not last long Con tempt gives way to admiration There is something marvelous in the way this lord of lace and ribbon dominates the women the royal highness as well as the spoiled actress He Is charming he is frivolous Then of a sudden his face darkens he becomes serious be stares at her royal highness studying her form from head to foot he smites his brow and cries despairingly No no I cant see you in that gown to day I cant see you in any gown I will study an inspiration will come you must wait And royalty goes away flattered she knows not why Vance Thompson in Womans Home Companion Landors Prose No poet has ever been a bad prose writer whenever he cared to drop from poetry Into prose but it is doubtful whether any poet has been quite so fine accomplished and persistent a prose writer as Landor Poetry he tells us in one of his most famous passages was always my amusement prose my study and business I have published five volumes of Imaginary Conversations cut the worst of them through the middle and there will re main in this decimal fraction quite enough to satisfy my appetite for fame I shall dine late but the dining room will be well lighted the guests few and select Without his prose Landor is indeed but half if he is half himself Arthur Symons in Atlantic Paul Jones Promise After the great fight in which John Paul Tones in the Bonhomme Richard made splinters and shreds of the Brit ish vessel Serapis the English govern ment generously decided that though vanquished beyond a question the cap tain of the lost vessel had behaved with becoming

creatures in the insect world conceal and preserve their eggs Some will deposit them in extraordinary places others will insert them in the skins of living animals others again deposit their eggs where the young grub after coming from the egg finds food close at hand Among these last mentioned are in sects who bestow great labor in the cradle of their young The place they select is a hard part of a leaf or the woody branch of a tree In this they saw out a hole large enough to contain their eggs whence their name saw flies For this purpose they are pro vided with an ovipositor of peculiar construction It consists of two long pieces closing like a sheath over a third I In the tenihredo this third piece con- J tains two little saws each of which has been compared to the tenon saw used by the cabinetmakers The tenon saw is single but that of the tenthredo is double consisting of two distinct saws The Insect in using them throws out one saw and while it Is returning pushes out the other This alternate motion is continued until the cut is made when the two saws receding from each other con duct the cgs between them into its place Not only is the edge of the saw notched into teeth but on every tooth a number of smaller teeth appear Tit For Tat He rejoiced in the not very humor ous name of Wood and he prided him self on his jokes and smart repartee Few of his friends had escaped the
