king of sweden likes plain food pea soup and pancakes with jam served every thursday by inga norberg swedish cooking has always held a place of honor la the culinary world anil to be the royal cook in a country et such connoisseurs of cooking as sweden is to hold no mean position yet king gustat himself whose grandchild tho crown princess of nor way has just given birth to a daugh ter is quite a spartan as regards food though be sliares a schoolboys taste where cakes are concerned a rioyal visitor when staying at drottningholm a favorite royal palace near stockholm he sometimes pays a visit to the kit chen inspecting pots and pans and asking what there is for dinner should some delicious cako or other little titbit happen to be lying about it might disappear as mysteriously as when his grandchildren find their way out there and it is no secret that rrincess iugrid is a real littlo epicure sometimes when espying the pastry cook in one of the long corridors the king will walk up to her shake hands and say thank you so much for those lovely cakes you made for tea yester day many steps to get nothing but copper utensils are used in the royal kitchens at drottningholm all the kitchen btoves are heated by birch wood there are stockpots so heavy that it takes t vo people to move them all round the kitchen aro situated the sculleries the pastrycooks room and so on while to get to the serving room you have to cross a yard rather a cold proposition for the food in win ter time and most inconvenient when one realizes that having safely ar rived in the serving room there re mains a further journey up a lift be fore tile food readies its final destina tion the kitchen of the prince of sweden is very much like the one at drottningholm all pots and pans are of copper and marked to indicate their weight anil capacity some have a royal crown engraved on them and the initials of the king anil queen from whose reign they date there are different stare rooms fur tho different khids of comestibles one lor vegetables en i preserves and fruit and one lor msit the refrig erator for the meat consists of a long deep cistern in which everything is kept on blocks of ice nertto it we nd a huge stone mortar which re quires the strong arms of a man to manipulate it the kitchen at ulriksdal is ruled over by a housekeeper who has six maids under her pancakes every aeek the menus present a great variety of dishes but neither the crown prince nor the crown princess has any special favorite dish though like king gustaf they keep to the old swedish custom of having for dinner every thursday of the year pea soup with pork and pancakes with jam tho former as cooked in my coun try and served with a glass of hot punsch a liqueur made from arrac is quite delicious simple routine thus king gustat has breakfast at nine a very simple meal consisting of just a cup of tea and an egg for lunch at one oclock he has an egg or lish dish somo meat and some cooked fruit dinner is just as simple fish meat a sweet and sometimes dessert when the king generally takes an orange he does not like soups but fish and especially plaice and those delicious baltic sprats aro favorite dishes and so aro game and poultry with his simple dinner king gustaf takes just one glass each of sherry burgundy and port styles and customs change but fundamentally human nature ntver changes

count thrco as you are falling so that you aro free of the plane and then pull tho ring he paused for his words to sink in you jsvtll then find that tho parachute will open and youll como down as lightly as a fcarfcer but supposing it doesnt open asked one of his listeners bring it back and ill give you an other replied tho instructor ans wers lated by dr frank thone science service feature isnt it odd washington he writes once in a while every lobster out grows its shell splits it down the back and sheds it emerging from it in a softshelled state after a period of retirement under the rocks its new shell hardens and the lobster is ready for normal activity again as soon as its claws have hardened enough so that it can use them again the lobster begins to pick up pinches of sand from the bottom and drop them over its head over and over again it repeats this queer process un til it achieves some end that appears to be satisfactory what is this thing the lobster is trying to do with grains of sand a dissection of the lobsters head shows that up in tho region of its chief nerve centres there is a tiny cavity communicating with the out side water by a still tinier hole in this cavity one ordinarily finds a few grains of sand only immediately af ter the shellshedding the sand grains aro missing the lining of the cavity is part of the shell and is shed with the rest of the shell taking the sand grains with it the hairsugaring of the lobster is an effort finally success ful to get sand grains hack into this little pocket but why should a lobster want to havo sand on tho brain scientists suspected that this littlo pocket with tho sand grains on its bottom had something to do with the lobsters sense of equilibrium with its knowledge of what is rightsideup and what is upside down but they didnt know how to go about proving it finally one of them hit upon a clever idea ho took a lobster that was about to shed its skin and put it into a tank of water only instead of sand on the bottom he strewed iron filings tho lobster picked up iron filings and put them into the cavity just as though they were sand grains then the scientist held a magnet over the lobsters head attracting the filings to tho top instead of letting his them rest on he bottom instantly the lobster turned upside down he held the magnate to one side f the lobster the lobster again turned so that the underside of its body was toward the magnet evidently the guess was right down for a lobster means the direction in which the sand grains press in his little headpocket a new fashion granted that there is an art in tea- making but even taking freshly boiled water good tea and a warmed pot into consideration some teatables still offer more fragrant tea than oth ers good china lea is usually more fragrant than indian tea hut a defi nite fragrance is produced by blend ing the two always allow the tea- leaves time to respond to the warm influence of the teapot before you pour the boiling water on to them the thinly peeled rind of an orange left in the tea caddy will impart a delightful flavor to the tea orange and tea are a good combination in serving the tea too most people have heard of russian tea and appre ciate a slice of lemon in lieu of milk on a hot day but not so many have tried a slice of orange in their tea with a squeeze of orangejuice as well try it it is
