Daniel and Noah Mixed.
Hosea B. Perkins always wants to make a “Daniel Webster chowder” from the recipe he obtained from the illustrious statesman whenever he is off on a pleasure party. On board a yacht one day he requested to be allowed to go into the galley and compound the chowder. He was introduced to the chef, and went to work with him. The chef, .however, did not think highly of the recipe, and observed: “Your Monsieur Yebster could write a diezionaire, but he could 'not make ze chowviere.”—New York Times.
