P Ham and eggs is rumored to be the Scecttish tribute to British culinary art, and wher in olian times bacon was coarser, stronger, and saiter than It is in our rarefied days, egges were eobviously used to tone down its saltâ€" ness, or brine. Tripe and onions hails from the home ccunties. Delving into a book of reminiscences, one finds that the oldâ€"time tripe dresser was a man of substance; that the dish flourished greatly in the céarly part of the twentieth century and that not an eating house from one end of London to the other but boasted of being the originator of the salubrious dish. Acâ€" tually, tripe and onions was origina!â€" 1y concocted by a pleman, who sold It from door to door over two hbunâ€" dred years ago, when it cost the masrificent sum of threepence per port‘on. o ues Peas pudding and pickled pork hails from Kent. â€" Pudding pie, that quaint mixture of eggsâ€"cumâ€"riceâ€"cumâ€"cinnaâ€" mon, currants, pastry, and milk, was once an Easter dish and offered to the pcor on Easter Sunday as â€"a \Many â€" dishes there are that owe accé dent for their origin; they hail from Dovon and from Cornwall, gom the MiJlands, from our coast and from Wales. _ It is possible, however, that no dish is quite so famous as the complement of bread sauce to turkey, and in this case economy was responâ€" sible;. at : one time the bread sauce outvied the turkey to its largesse.

Here at least he will find that the people are at last beginâ€" ning to follow the Empire banner which he and a few like him have carâ€" ried alone for so long. (By a Young Beer) General Janâ€" Christian ‘Smuts, the greatest living Empire figure, bas arâ€" rived in England and is delivering Rhodes Lectures at Oxford. Here Smuts.is a world‘figure. All Englishmen know him as the grave pleader at the Versailles Conference, who. would bave saved Europe much misery, if only Europe‘s own states men bad not barred the way. But fow know.thet, in his own country, this former enemy of England bas sufferâ€" ed more for the Empire than any Engâ€" lishman has done. _ When he returned from his triâ€" umphs in Europe he found acclamaâ€" tion at Capetown, it is true; but he also found gross cartoons in the Afriâ€" kaans Press showing him as the "Handyman of the Empire," in khaki uniform, next to a baboon tied to a pole. * C A politician could haye countered with an even viler epithet, but I leave you.to imagine what pain this must have caused to a great and sensitive character such as that_ of General Smuts, . The ruoral tubâ€"thumpers stil talk of Smuts and the Rand revolt, acâ€" eusing him of causing. bloodshed among® his peopleâ€"of ghooting his own blood fat, as the idiom runs.

It was lame, clumsy;~1 remember a meeting near Pretoria, where an unsoaped litâ€" tle alien got up in the front row and This carried the bitter implication that he was a "khaki Boer"â€"of the renegade sort who helped Britain durâ€" ing the Boer warâ€"tied to his Empire pole like a captive baboon. The vilest thing you can call a soldier is ‘traitâ€" or," and for years Smuts has bad this epithet flung at him. Many in South Africa were, like myself, trained pracâ€" tically from childhood to Bate him. Lonely in the ‘first place . with the terrible Joneliness of the intelectual, Smutsâ€"was. further estranged from popular sympathy because the scene of his‘ triumphs lay in a land which fewâ€"of his own people had seen and which mostâ€" of them knew only as a former â€"enemy., He was picknamed *Blim Janpie" (Sly Jock) for the same reason that made the average Berâ€" liner look upon the great Stresemann @s<a ~trafficâ€"light, {acing all ways at once. adute . Before thgse.yicious attacks Smutk was puzzled,, purt, but .neyer resentâ€" ful. .
