EITAY EATEW'BYWWITIKN'S Was Considered a “Delicacy by a Num- like ,’ ber of Tribes .i‘ There have been several tribes of ' Indians in merica that in times past were given to eating earth as food. The Pawnees used to prefer a yellow- ish clay, which they shaped, into little 1 balls that were allowed to dry in the air and were then slowly‘roasted at the open fire. When_,the clay attained a red color the balls were removed, moistened with water and teaten. These clay balls were especially liked when served in connection with fish, and seem to have promoted digestion. The Timmen Indians of the Mac- kenzie River used torresort to earth as food in times of famine. They dug out the Clay found in the hollows along the banks of'the river. In prosperous years they chewed the clay as a delicacy. ' The Apaches mixed powdered clay in their meal before baking this into their rude loaves of bread. The Indians in the uplands of Bolivia ate. a light clay thatis nearly white in color; this .they used either .raw or in the form of cakes of'various shapes, which were sold in the mar: ket places. They also prepared a sauce with the clay; this they ate with boiled potatoes. ' Among the negroes} of the Guinea coaSt, as Well as ameng those in -'West Africa, the eating of dirt is very common. The natives of'the Soudan dig. their 'favorite clay from between layers of sandstone in the banks of the, rivers. The natives of Java pre- pare their cakes of clay containing ochre; these are sold in the'public markets; I How illuslc‘l'ah's Are Produced, .

The girl seem- ed quitereconciled by the time the triumphant procession was ready to start. ' imilarity of Wood ’ In Southern Russia and Trans- caucasia, the forests are very similar in composition to those of southern Canada and the United States. Of the hardwoods, beech and oak are the most important species, the former forming vast forests on the slopes of the Caucasus Mountains. Scotch pine, Oriental spruce and Niordmann fir rank first among the conifers. The latter sometimes attains a height of 150 feet and a diameter of eight feet, be- ing much superior in size and quality of wood to the balsam fir, or “balsam,” of eastern Canada. ' _ Magistrate on Diet On the question of diet there is a tendency to go astray by neglecting the simple and more wholesome dishes, said Mr.- D. Lleufer Thomas (stipendiary ofv' Pontypridd) in a speech at Femdale Secondary School. Children should have plenty‘ of ‘green vegetables, a wholesome parsnip, and .that great delicacy, a boiled onion. l (Laughter). Then, again, there was lno greater delicacy than a herring, ,- ‘ if a child could be persuaded to eat it. Care of Books . I .
