SERYTA AST A NATTON".
It Originated In th Fint Half of th Seventh Century, The birth of Servla as a nation, settled In or near its present heme, may e dated in the first half of the sevnth century. About 600 A. D.. when fhe Avaric empire of desolation was istablished on the Danube, two tribes, !he Croats and the Serbs, retiring before the ravages of the Tartar horsenen, settled in the countries now tnown as Croatia, Bosnia and Servla. They were Slavs, but the Croats perlaps bad, like the Slavs of Moesia in ifter years, adopted the name of a Tartar tribe. Both, fleeing from the Ivars, were naturally hostile to them, ind it is possible that they settled in !be empire with the consent or even at h invitation of the Emperor Heratllus I. At any rate, they appear to lave been considered as vassals of the smpire. Their first settlements lay rather westward of the country now ailed Servla, the Drave the present resteru boundary, being the dividing Ine between Bulgar and Serb in the righth century. Here the Serbs dwelt laore or less uneventfully for three .enturies. They generally formed a loose confederacy under chiefs called tupans. They were commonly, in a toose fashion, loyal to the eastern empire mainly through fear of their danterous neighbors, the Bulgarians. 4 bout 840 they united under a chief tamed Vlastlmiz to repel the latter. The country rose to great heights under Stephen Dushan, the czar of the Serbs, but after bis death Murad I. tonqnered the country, and it was not intil 1815 that the Serbs partially Ihrew r the Turkish yoke.

Its
Meat When Cooked Tastes Like
Mashed Potatoes and Milk. One of the gifts of the eastern tropics to the western is the breadfruit, which is now extensively planted in the West Indies. This can be done only by cuttings, as the cultivated variety develops no seeds. In the wild form the chestnutlike seeds are eaten, but the pulp Is disregarded. The tree is of moderate height, but spreads a broad crown of large, ragged edged, glossy leaves, making an excellent shade. The fruit, which is a compound of the massive clusters of blossoms, is about the size of a cocoanut and Is incased in a rough rind. This, when baked in hot embers or in an oven, broken open and scooped out with a spoon, tastes like mashed potatoes and milk or like sweet bread, which it also resembles in appearance. It is a little fibrous toward the center, bnt elsewhere is quite smooth and "puddingy." Sometimes a curry or stew is made of it, and it goes well as a vegetable with meat or gravy. "With sugar, milk, butter or treacle," Wallace wrote, "it is a delicious pudding, having a very slight but delicate and characteristic flavor, which, like that of good bread and potatoes, one never gets tired of." It is also highly nutritious. The genus (artocarpus) contains several species, one of which, the Jackfmit, is also cultivated for eating. The timber of the tree is also useful, the bars can be prepared for a sort of
cloth and the sap forms, when boiled !
with oil, a mucilaginous liquid very useful for making the seams of wooden palls, canoes and the like water tight. Harper's Weekly.
A CAMPAIGN OF ODDITIES, i i When the Log Cabin and Hard Cider j Enthusiasts Rejoiced. j Political enthusiasm has taken many forms during the lifetime of this na-; tion. The Harrison-Van Buren presi-j dential campaign of 1840 was iu some respects the most remarkable the country Ikis ever seen. "From May till No-! vember," says one historian, "it seemed i as if all ablebodied citizens simply ! went about in processions to attend , mass meetings." j The great oddity of the campaign was the log cabin, the coon and the ci-; tier barrel. The log cabin idea orlgi j nated with an opposition paper which ' had said s.Mghtingly that "William I Henry Harrison better go back to In-; diana and stay there in his log cabin drinking hard cider." j The taunt was taken up by narri-! son's followers. Log cabins sprang up : all over the Union. In every town . there was a house warming, and the log i cabin was thrown open to the public 1 amid general rejoicing. On the roof: was a live raccoon, and a barrel of ', cider stood before the door, where any j one who desired might drink all he : chose. i It was a campaign of oddities. Some , of the symbols have never been sur-1 passed for genuine absurdity. Maga- j zine of American History. j
