‘*THE HISTORIC PIE, ©
AN ANCIENT INSTITUTION POPULAR- ~™~ ZED IN ENGLAND.
4 Staple Article of Food in This Country ~The Various Changes That Have Oc- curred Until the Present—-A Wonderful English Pie, we
Pie may, without exaggeration, be called an institution,
‘The history of the’pie has yet to be writ- ten ina profound and scholarly way. It isathing of stupendous antiquity. The word itself is one of that small class in modern English derived from the ancient British or Celtic languages. In mediwval Euglish it was commonly spelled ‘‘pye,” and this word appears to have been derived from the Gaelic “pighe.’’ The Irish lang- uage also has the word “pighe.” Allied words in Irish are ‘‘pithan” and “pig- heann,”
This fact alone, it will be perceived, is fu.l of historic significance. So great was the vitality and tenacity of pie as ‘an insti- tution that it survived the Teutonic in- vasion of ancient Britain and imposed itselfon the conquerors. It had already lived through the Roman invasion of Britain, and the temporary introduction of Latin civilization and cookery in that island,
It is unfortunate that a historian like the late John Richard Green, who writes so fascizatingly of the life and customs of the people, has not attempted to give us a sympathetic description ef an ancient British, Gaelic or Irish pie.
When, in their tarn the Anglo-Saxons were couquered by the Normans, pie did not succumb. Gallicized methods of cook- ing, in which pie does not appear to have figured, prevailed among the ruling classes, but pie lived on in the homes of the peo- ple. It was solidly established there, and gradually it fought its way into an impor- tant position in the domestic economy of all classes, from which it has never been dislodged. Mince pie, in various forms, is one of the most characteristic features of old English cookery.
The pie, as it has developed in Canada is & flat, circular thing, with asotiden under- crust, This form is scarcely known in England. There the fruit or meat is put in a deep dish and the crust spread over the top.
An English cook-book of the eighteenth’ century contains the following recipe for something not very different from a mince pie: “To make a lumber pye—Take a pound and a half of veal, parboil it, and when ‘tis cold chop it very small, with two pounds of beef suet and some candied orange peel, some sweet herbs, as thyme, sweet marjoram and an handful of spin- age. Mince the herbs small before you put them to the other. So chop all together, and a pippin or two, then add a handful or two of grated bread, a pound and a half of currants, washed and dried; some cloves, mace, nutmeg, a little sait, sugar and sack, and put to all these as many yolks of raw eggs and whites of two as wil’ make it a moist, fore’d meat. Work it with your hands into a bedy and make it into balls as big asa turkey’s egg; then having your coffin made put in your balls. Take the mar- row out of three or four bones as whole as you can; let your marrow lie a little in water to take out the blood and splinters; then dry it and dip it in yolk of exgs; season it with a little salt, nutmeg, grated, and grated bread, lay it on and between your fore’d meat balls, and over that sliced citron, candied orange and lemon, eryngo roots, preserved barberries; then lay on sliced lemon and thin slices of butter over all; then lid your pye and bake it, and when ‘tis drawn have’ readiness a caudle made of white wine and sugar and thick- ened with butter and eggs, and pour it hot into your pye.”
This is indeed a pie wherewith to feed a stalwart, conquering race. The remark about “having your coffin made’ has a peculiar significance in these degenerate days.
Not only has the pie acquired a national shape in Canada, but materials are used in it which England does not possess. Squash pie, pumpkin pie and custard pie are all our inventions. In England they only eat mince pie at Christmas, and not three times a day all the year round.

Odd Things in Fashion,
There are lots of odd things about the clothes of to-day. For instance, a “hearts ease” belt is a long. narrow ribbon, tied in a bow with drooping ends. . Collars are cut in spirals and put on twisted. The lamp- shade style is now & recognized one so far as capes are concerned,and the lamp shade ballet would no longer be ridiculed were it to appear on the street, says the Home Journal. Moire ribbon is still a subject of fond conversation to modistes, but some- how the public seems to have had enough of it, and very little is seen. The ‘1840” sleeve is cut allin one with the shoulder fronts, and laid in tucks at the wrist. Not only are skirts wired tokeep them in place, but an adroitly adjusted wire, so arranged as to be absolutely invisible, is put inside the newest sleeves, and makes the admired “bulge’’ on them. The newest brown is a sort of coffee shade and is called ‘‘Moka.” About every outdoor costume has at least two capes made to wear with it, onea long full cape for cold days, the other a little butterfly affair, cut on a circle, with fur trimmed edges curling round the face like the petals of a flower.
Clerical Titles of Old,
Recent discoveries in Palestine have made more clear the secular use of the terms “‘deacon’’ and ‘‘bishop’’ before the establishment of Christianity. Texts and inscriptions have been found with men- tion of diaconoi as being certain subordin- ate civil officers. Episcopol or overseers were functionaries of a higher grade under the Roman regime, and several lists of these have been found. From the first the terms were used by the church to meet the needs of her own organization, being bor- rowed from the civil organization of the times.—Churchman.
Encouragement for Sociclogtste,
Sir John Lubbock, addressing the Socio- logical congress at Paris recently, said that in London since 1870 the number of children in English schools had increased from 1,500,000 to 5,000,000, and that in the same time the number of persons in prison had fallen from 12,000 to 5,000. The yearly average of persons sentenced to confine- ment for the worst crimes has declined from 3,000 to 800.—New York Tribune,
Wear and Tear on Rallways,
Taking the Jength of the permanent railways on the surface of the globe at nearly 60,000 geographical miles, with a daily average of tex trains, it is estimated that the total loss suffered by wear and tear each day by the metallic rails of the earth is about 600 tons. The 600 tons are lost in the form of a white powder, and are carried back into the earth in the shape of solubie iron salts.

The Family Doctor Yells of Its Health{ul- hess us a Food.
If English people would only realize the immense importance and value of fruit a an article of diet in the early morning, we should find its appearance far more gep eral on the ordinary breakfast table. 01 its healthfulness at this period of the day there can be no question whatever, and more fruit and less animal food would un doubtedly conduce to a much healthier condition of body. In the morning there is an acid state of the secretions, and noth- ing is so well calculated to correct this as cooling, subacid fruits, such as peaches, appies and pears. The apple is one of the best of fruits; oranges also are generally acceptable to most people; but the juice alone should be taken aud not the pulp, and the same may be said of lemons and pomegranates. Tomatoes act on the liver and bowels, aud blackberries, figs, rasp- berries, currants and st rawberries may be classed among the best foods and medi cines. The sugar in them is nutritious, the acid is cooling and purifying and the seeds are laxative.
Fruits are the natural correctives for disordered digestion, but the way in which many persons eat them converts them into a curse rather than a bless- dang. Instead of being taken on an empty stomach, or in combination with simple grain preparations, such as bread, they are frequently eaten with oily foods or they are taken at the end of the meal, af ter the stomach is already full, and per- haps the whole mass of food washed down with tea, coffee, or other liquid. Fruits to do their best work should be éaten either on an empty stomach or simply with bread—never with vegetables. In the morning, before the fast of tue night has been broken, they are not only exceed- ingly refreshing, but they serve as a natural stimulus to the digestive organs. And to produce their fullest, finest effect, they should be ripe, sound, and of good guality. In our climate fresh fruit should constitute not the finishing, but the be ginning of the meal, particularly the breakfast, for at least six mouths in the year. The good effects that would follow the abundant use of fruits are often more than counterbalanced by the pernicious habit of saturating them with sugar. Very few fruits, if thoroughly ripe and a their best, require any sugar, particular): ifeaten in the raw state, but it uufortu nately is a fact that what is intended an: prepared for ns as a yvreat good in th. matter of diet should be transformed int exactly the reverse.—Londen Family Doctor.
Origin of the Match, -
Romer, Preschel and IJrinyi are variously named as inventors of phosphorus matches. From the testimony of a stil living college friend, it appears that th: real inventor is the Hungarian, Jano- Trinyi. It was in 1835, when the latter, then 19 years old and a atudent at th Polytechnic School, in Vienna, attende Professor Meissner’s lectures on chemistry He became greatly impressed bya demon stration of the reaction produced on ru} bing together peroxide of lead and sul phur. It struck him at once that the re- action might be greatly intensified whe: substituting phosphorus for sulphur. Irinydiavas not to be seen at the college fo: the next few days. His friend, wishing u see him, called at his rooms, but found the dcor locked. On joining his friends, Irinyi had his pockets full of matches, which he atruck on the walls, all of them taking fire. He prepared them by melting phos phorous in a concentrated solution of glue and shaking until the mass became cold and allthe phosphorus assumed a finely divided state. This emulsion was mixed with brown peroxide of lead, and sticks previously dipped in molten sulphur were immersed in the mixture. He sold his in- vention, it is recorded, to a merchant named Romer for about $3,500 —Invention.
Carlyle, “Warts and All.”
Froude thought Newman had the intel lect of a Cesar; Carlyle, he tells us, de clared that Newman had the brain of a rabbit. Froude admered Charles Lamb above all English writers; Carlyle de- scribes “Ella” and his poor sister in words that are harrowing to most of us to read. But as a consciertious biographer, in- trusted with all the papers and documents, Froude decided, and rightly, that Carlyle must appear, “warts and all.” And when he had given us his portrait, with these disfigurements, he told us in all sincerity that it was the portrait of the noblest bu man being be had é@ver known. —The National Review.
Costly Fur of the Silwer Fox.
Next to the sea otter, for clothing pur poses, the silver fox brings the highest price, and in this case the Russians are the principal buyers. The silver fox is one o the most precious denizens of the Hudson Bay territory, and as much as £120 has been paid for a single fine skin. The silver fox, however, is really not silvery, and ha only a few white hairs mixed with hi- black ones—indeed, the most highly prized skins are entirely black. The principal use of these skins is for the collars of the cloaks of Russian ladies.—Chamber’s Jour nal.

Hope rose anew within him.
“J can be rid of it,” he exclaimed, with a faith that wassublime. “I will use u for a collar button.”
