Show H A GOURMET. H A ten-year-old epicure living at Anderson, In- H dlene, was taken to New York by his father. The H Hoosier lad seemed at first to be grieved that H his native city should be so outdistanced by this H Eastern stranger. Finally he assumed an air o: f disdain. They had entered the cafe of one of the M largest hotels, and a menu was plr ed before the' H little fellow. This was the final outrage. Accus- R tomed to seeing the different flavors of sodas and H sundaes on such cards, his assumed indifference Hj was broken down, and he gasped in astonishment H and chagrin. There stood the long list of hun- B dreds of New York delicacies, almost unheard of H at Anderson. But a strong will and loyalty con-t H quered. He carelessly handed the menu to his HH father, and said: "There's nothing thero that & m want." |
