I Ideas as to what is “good for food” come ’
simply from use ami habit. I remember,
about thirty years ago, when "the harvest
| of the sea” did not often como far inland,
my father, who was staying at, Weymouth,
I sent some shrimps to the parish clerk nt
! home in Warwickshire. But afterward,
on being asked how they were enjoyed, the
oid man bashfully owned that “they h'<>ki fl
so like crickets that none of the family
could bring themselves toeat I hem, so t h< y
were buried in the garden.”—Notes and
Queries.

And there in p« -i o nnd r cniort
