"In this, the doctor began again, holding up a turkey wing on his fork, "In this we have a turkey which has been treated with oxalic acid and chloride of potassium to keep It In a shivering state. "Iardon me, doctor, exeluimed Fetiches Indignantly, "but It Isnt a e turkey, because It was present by some friends 00 Ij0"g Isl,,nd only this morning. went on Cutcrpillur ' Charlie, "poaslhly my hurried diagnosis wan at fault, but we can never be sure about these things, because here, on the dhow of the wing, I find traces of eallstbenlc udd over the membranes. No, thank you," suld Uncle Gregory, "I never cut turkey. It gives me the hcnrlhurn." And the poor old guy struck such a note of hunger that I wanted to throw that doctor out of the window. Ily this time severul others ut the table were becoming more of less Impressed, nnd the dinner party was beginning to assume the cheerful aspect of u meeting of martyrs an hour before the arena aliened. "llease puss me some mashed poUnde Gregory tatoes, whispered after the pungs of hunger had beaten him to the ropes. Here we find, croaked the doctor, raising a forkful of 'mashed potatoes, "here we find one of the most evil effects of food adulteration. This potato wus grown In the full of the year lsai), but It has been washed in alum water to give It the appearance of being modern, while Its eyes have been treated with hdladonna to make them bright und snappy." Unde Gregory grouned pathetically, and the rest of us, out of politeness, tried to look interested, but only succeeded In looking senslck. When the Ice cream und cake were brought on Doctor Smotherjoy drove bis sp mii down deep Into the chocolate and vanilla mixed and said, Here Is a pitiful illustration of what dishonest tradesmen will do for Here we find that some of money. this Ice cream was pale originally, but It was treated with unlltnc dye to give It this clan, .late effect, and then baked In the sun to deceive the eye. On the other hand, we find this vanilla was originally dark and forbidding, but It lias been treated with peroxide of hydrogen to make it more of u blonde."

Take It from me, dodging benzine buggies on the boulevard is sleepy work In comparison. Friend wife concluded It was up to us to squeeze a few uncles und uunts Into our 4 by 4 dining room and throw turkey wings at them, so I coaxed my nervous system to beliuve und told reaches to cut loose. She sut down und Invited Uncle I'e-te- r Grant und Aunt Martha, Uncle Gregory Smith und Aunt Ilessle. Then she went In, took another look at the dining room und stopped. I Invited Bud Ilawley, his wife Sybil, nnd Ilep Hurdy, und explained to them thut we would ull have to sit edge-o- n at the table nnd get our meat cut In the kitchen, so ns to avoid hitting each other on the funny Lone, and It was so ordered. Hep arrived curly. He always does. He generally breezes In with the Information that four pages of tango music nre waiting for him in some hoof palace, and he lias to hurry away, but on this occasion be concluded to see the fight to a ."nlsh. Then the other members of our dinner party began arriving nnd the mad revel was on. Uncle Feter brought a friend the famous food expert. Doctor Smother Joy. The doctor is a high card with Uncle I Feter. He Is one of those old ginks with beady eyes and a license to bunt for germs, and everything he eats has first to give the countersign and then go through a written examination. Uncle Feter believes every word that leaves Doc Smotherjoys face, but for my part I think hes an old Cam-- I embert. At any rate, no sooner were we seat ed at the table than Doc parted Ills .whiskers carefully, coughed to unmet attention, then picked up a little-nec'clam on the end of his fork and rro-reeded to give it the third degree. "The adulteration of foodstuffs these days Is being carried on to ad extent worse than criminal, the old bluff began solemnly. "Ah, even here I see traces of sully-sllll- c acid with even here on this clum. 'Tut a little tnbnseos on it nnd fut loose," suggested Bud Hawley. "Have a lemon, said Hep. "Squeeze It over the clatus nnd make a wish." Unde Feter listened with marked attention, while Uncle Crcgory glanced at his clams and shuddered. ' The doctor ate his unconcernedly. When the soup came or. the Doe lifted a spoonful thoughtfully, then sloshed It slowly buck Into his plute. while the two unkies eyed him nervously. "Its bullyon," whispered Unde Feter, unxlous to prove the soups Innocence. "Here. suld the doctor, examining his sjonuful critically, "here nre I races of hydrophosphates and about ten per cent philharmonic mid." "I never eat soup," gurglej Unde Greg, "because Its a waste of good space." The doctor said nothing more, but quietly surrounded bis soup. When the fish was served the doctor danced over his plate with his fork and said, "Hydrostatic add with here and there sjiaptoms of mnngitucse germs und a few sulphide microbes. Unde Gregory pushed bis plute buck wlih a sigh that was pitiful to hear. Beaches was now so nervous that her hands were doing a shaker dust, ami there was a Mg pink spot on each cheek. The others ut the table, with the exception of nervous old Unde Gregory, i al t not the slightest attention to Doctor Busyfuee.
