Off the Cape of Good Hope I saw schools of sardines or other small fish being treated in this way by great numbers of cavally-fish. There was not the slightest chance of escape for the sardines, while the cavally circled round and round, feeding from the edge of the mass.

"This ain't the only iron he has in the fire," answered Norman drowsily. "But where's our own eats?" Roy dumped his bags and bundles on the grass and then began to explore his own capacious pockets. From one he took a can of salmon and from another a box of sardines. "And here's the lemon for 'em," he explained, producing it from his shirt pocket. "Help yourself to the bread."

Poach the desired number of eggs. Put the rice in the center of a platter, cover it with the eggs, pour over the sauce. Dust the dish with parsley, and send at once to the table. The edge of this dish may be garnished with broiled sardines or carefully broiled smoked salmon.

I shall have nearly two whole hours in which to do any silly thing I like, without getting scolded"; and his smile was very winsome. "I don't like you to have to wait so long for your dinner. You always get faint. Perhaps Dr. Renshaw would see me another evening... I " "Oh, nonsense, chum" in the same cheery voice "I'll have a tin of sardines, and eat one every ten minutes until you come."

Or chop the sardines up fine and squeeze a few drops of lemon juice into them, and spread between buttered bread or cold biscuits. Wash well some water cress and then dry them in a cloth, pressing out every atom of moisture as far as possible; then mix with the cress hard-boiled eggs chopped fine, and seasoned with salt and pepper.

The tone was one of momentous inquiry. Miss Barbour's coming was a matter that could wait, but supper necessitated a solemn decision which must be made at once. Hands clasped behind her, the blue eyes grew big with suspense, and again she repeated, "Which?" "I really don't know. Both are very good. I believe I like sardines better than Oh no, I don't."

On the quay, bathed in sunshine, were five or six customs officers, some settlers awaiting news from France, some squatting Moors, smoking their long pipes, some Maltese fishermen, hauling in a large net, in the meshes of which thousands of sardines glittered like pieces of silver; but scarcely had Tartarin set foot there when the quay sprang into life and changed entirely its appearance.

The strange fellow offered not a word of explanation, but chatted as though their meeting in such places as this were an everyday occurrence. "I have something interesting to tell you," he observed, when they were seated in the brilliant dining-room, with olives, sardines, and the like to toy with before the serious commencement of their meal.

The author presents a menu that would be looked upon as a temperate one for a student: Breakfast. Fruit Well cooked cereal breakfast food with cream or a slice of bacon, an egg, with bread and butter Glass of milk, cocoa or cereal coffee Dinner. Supper. Creamed potatoes Salmon or sardines Bread and butter Canned or stewed fruit Cocoa or milk

One of the soldiers took something from his pocket, about the size of a testament, pressed it to his heart, and then kissed it, and I felt as though I was about to faint, but by the light of a match which another soldier had scratched on his pants to light his pipe, I saw that what I supposed to be a testament, was a box of sardines the soldier had bought of the sutler.
