AMERICAN PIE.

A Swwt Wlili'h May Klghtty be Termed Ylrtuou*. Some fifty years Or ago hegau the apotheosis of muscle, and with it the! downfall of that comestible called pi©, Pie, it was declared, was an tin righteons compound that degenerated the muscle, that degraded the stomach, that depraved the nerves. It was the viand of tlie rustic* and ought to be remanded to the rustic table, where it made dyspepsia three times a day. In addition, the Anglomania just then setting in, pie, it whs stated, was something unknowu to Knghmd, except in the shape of the little pork and other meat pie. the huge venison pasty, and the mince pie that is less than a single portion toour own eaters^ and the Knglish having chosen to laugh at our pie. laugh it must be: and so pie was laughed down and frowned down, aud except in the shape of t«rts, under meringues, or in the rich Christmas viand, lnveame a thing unknown to the inner circle of tine feeders who hold that as one eats so is he.

The brick oveu that used to be heated every Saturday morning for the big baking of its dozens of pies had no:

rr~~~rr. longer its old prestige, the cooking! the Carlisle cur- sto\c could bake all the. pies that were the House this needed, just as the provision shop could

supply all the sausage*nud healcheese. and the factory could card and spin and weave- ami few* were needed, for tt had Wcome vulgar to eat pie. But gradually came a reaction people began to wonder why a delicate crust, baked with a sweetmeat was nnv more indigestible wheu It was called pie than when it was called puff, or tart, or pate, or tea-biscuit people regarded their mothers' and their grandmothers1 pies with tender reminiscence now and then, when there was no company at table, they had one. made of greeu apples, and wondered why the tart and Mveet and sirnpy thing could possibly be unhealthy, and they made up their minds to have another presently.

And then the railways began to grow, to cover the land with their embroidery of iron, and at every few miles and ut every intersection an eating place was found—and what could there be in the place so ca.\v to keep, to handle, to eat. as pteV And the whole traveling world had to eat pie or starve, and there were many jokes about the restaurant pie. but all the same the taste lingered on the palate, and a secret spirit of rebellion and rer* olution was -developing round every table, when Mr. Ralph Waldo Ktnerson died, and it was made known that he had had pie every morniug of his life for breakfast.

Shades of our fathers and all philosopliers! A philosopher, a New England Rrahinin, a literateur. a man of culture, a man of station, a man of fortune, a gentlemau! If he. why not we? "Off. ye lending*!*' wa# the cry, as every rebel threw awav disguised, and everywhere there was to be heard, now that the ban was removed, a cry for pie—for the flavorous mince in winter, the apple, tlie desiccated peach, the golden squash, the cranberry, the oustard, the lemon, and in the spring the juicy rhubarb, called Persian apple, the strawberry pie. the famoua cherry, the gooseberry, the blueberry, the greengage, the plum, every weeV of the summer a new variety, d*licat#, fine, running over with honeyed liqueur. And so the pie has ooine ont of its retirement foreigners have yet to learn its value, but the native-born American remembers his grandmother and the turnovers of his vouth. and thanks goodness that It no longer puts him outride the pale of social reapecta*: bility that he ha* found his digestion

FAOTS ABOUT MUSK.

How the Strong: Perfume In Obtained aad 1M fftilom Ciei, Although pure musk is not usually) relished by the delicate olfactories of persons with oultivated sensibilities, there in no odor so extensively used In the compounding of perfumes. It ia obtained from the musk deer, whloh inhabits the motintain ranges of Thibet.

This animal is smaller than the deer of this country, being about the size of a calf. It is of a dark gray color, and has nc horns. The odor for which it is valuable Is a fluid secretion in a sac on the under side of its body.

This is exposed to the air. and when dry is sent to the market. When first: obtained it Is about the consistency of honey, and has a bitter, pungent taste, it is used as a medicine, but has more

value as a perfume. On account of the persistency with, which musk retains its odor it Is used as the groundwork for other perfumes. which are more volatile. It is said thats a single grain of musk will perfume a room for twenty years.

So strong is it that it has been estimated that three thousand parts of a substance, in itself devoid of odor, will become permeated with the scent with one part of musk.

It is in consequence very valuable. and. as it is difficult to procure on account of the almost inaccessible haunts of the musk deer, it is quite expensive, being worth about twenty-live dollars an ounce.

Chemists have long endeavored to produce an artificial musk, but they have not as yet been successful. Philadelphia Times.
