Cuper Sauce Capers,

The caper, familiar in caper sauce and used also as a garnish for salads, i im ported from Spain and France. Capers are grown in Italy, but none is imyort- ed from there into this country.

Capers are sorted into four sizes, of which the smallest are known commer- cially as nonpareils, and the next larger as surfines. The next larger in French capers are capucines, and the largest capotes, while the next to the largest and the largest of Spanish capers are known respectively as capotes No. 1 and No. 2. The smallest capers are the most desirable and bring the most mon- ey. French capers sel] for more than Spanish. Capers are imported almost wholly io bulk in kegs of 15 or 16 gal- lons and barrels of about 40 gallons in brine or vinegar. <A few capers are im ported in glass, but they are mostly pus upin this country. Capers grow ons bush.—New York Sun.

Royal Hotel Keepers.

The king of Wurttemberg may be re- garded as a hotel keeper as well as 4 monarch. This has long been a tradi tion in his family, but not until lately was it discovered by the rulers of the beautiful little German kingdom how profitable innkeeping can become. When Peter the Great was traveling incognito through Europe, he refused to stop any- where but at an inn. To circumvent this whim the then king of Wurttem- berg puta tavern sign outside one of the royal palaces and, dressed as an innkeeper, himself welcomed the ezar. 1 This royal personage’s descendant now owns two large botels, from which he is said to derive a revenue equaling $50,000 a year.
