* There Is uo question that breakfast
is today a meal that has been developed
out of the centuries, remarks J.
U. S. In.the Christian Science Monitor.
In the days of the Wars of the Ituses,
breakfast was eaten when we of toJu.v
are still asleep. Into the cold and
stuffy hull, rush strewn, witn a Are
feverishly burning on the great hearth,
came the men, yuwning and pushing
their tousled hair out of their eyaa.
They would uot wear their swords,
unless there was to be an Immediate
foruy or battle or rouse of some kind
or other, but all would have their
knives and daggers, to eat with and
to stab. If need be. There was no
sunlight and the smoky mist of the
fens came In ut the doors and through
the high, loose windows. The dogs
yawned, too, and scratched themselves,
too, and made thenseives generally
obnoxious as those noble animals will
At the high table, on his dais, the
lord's platter and cup awaited him;
presently, he came. He was slightly
cleaner than his rusty retainers; at
all events he wore better clothes. As
lord and *s leading a life that was
virtually military ail the time, he u?ay
bave had on his back and breast pieces
and his culsses, or thigh pieces. He,
too, wore his dagger, for the handy
nsts above set forth. And whnt did
they eat and drink? Well, the mere
description is enough to pot one out
of countenance for a full week with
all forms of food and you C&n find out
for yourself, There wns no morning
table, the chill wns insufferable and
the air was foul. Thsy had "n#anchets"
of bread, but buttered toast
was n beautiful dream of the far distant
future. It wns fight and grab
and wound and too often lie and
blackly cheat with many of these
stout lords and their faithful trains,
and though we have not solved all the
problems, I have a notion, reader,
that we are better off than they were,
even If we do not wear armor to
breakfast. We may grumble as we
like at this thing and that, but there
Is more sunlight than there was then,
or rather we see It more and we feel
^ It more and w? share It more, so thai
y breakfasting in Boston or London at
a seemly hour and having a proper
modicum of decency and comfort, lei
us go through the healthful exercise
of thanksgiving and look with humble
steadfastness forward always, backward
never.
Daring Equilibrists.
Hie Frenchman who recently waved
the trl-color from the top of the
Strassburg cathedral In celebration of
the transfer of the custody of that famous
pile from German to French authority,
wus not the first to perform
this daring feat.
The spire Is 466 feet from the
ground, and Is surmounted by a "button"
18 Inches In diameter, which formerly
was a pedestal for a statue of
the Virgin, but now serves merely a*
ii aupiHiri ror u ugntning rod. In the
Eighteenth century, according to the
? chronicles of the cathedral, a Gerinar
chimney sweep climbed up to the button
and ftiere stood upright on it
Moreover, at that time there was n?
lightning r6d running up the side to
aid In the ascent.
In April, 1800, aguln, a French soldier,
to win a bet, climbed the spire
and actually stood on his head on the
button. A strong wind was blowing
and the man swayed this way and
that with his legs In the air lu a truly
alurming manner. His form, it Is ro
lated, seen from the ground, looked
no bigger than a speck, and his gyrations
could he ur>tcd only with the
aid of tleld glasses.

WON. BY APPEAL TO VANITY
How Wily Diplomat Saved Lord Boaconafleld
From Bad "Break"
Ho Had Contemplated.
Curiosity, suys a London correspondent
of the Christian Sclep^P Monitor,
Is frequently expressed as to how the
prime minister gets along tn his conferences
with foreign ministers. It le
understood that, though he can make
out the purport of a printed passage
In the French language, he never had
the opportunity of acquiring facility In
the spoken tongue. In this respect he
flnde a precedent In the case of Lord
Beaconsfield. When he went to tho
Berlin- congress In 1878 he made
known to his faithful secretary Ills Intention
of addressing the conference
in French. Monty Oory, having suffered
scraps of his chiefs colloquial
French, was aghast. In despair he ap
piled to the British minister at Berllr
for assistance. Odo Russell lived up
to the occasion. In casual conversation
with Lord Beaconsfleid he mentioned
that he had heard a rumor that
he Intended to address the plenipotentiaries
on the following day i>
French. "That would," the wily uitc
later said, "be a gruve disappoint
moot. They know that they have here
In you the greatest living master of
English oratory, and aiv looking for

ly saw the reasonableness of this objection
and all his speeches during the
sittings of the congress were In English.
COULDN'T LEAVE EMILY OUT
Peculiar Reason Why Elderly Spinete*
Just Had te Attend the
Funeral.
Word has come to the mid-Victorian
lady that an old friend of her mother's
had died suddenly In her home In
Maine. It was her duty te break the
sad news to two elderly spinsters,
cousins of the dear departed "auntie."
She found Miss Susan at home, tend
tng to her pet canary,v Miss Susan la
78, but spry and alert, ready for any
emergency. Miss Emily, five year*
elder, was out motoring with a kindly
benefactress. The slow tears of old
age trickled down Miss Susan's cheeks
at the word that another of her generation
had passed away. And then,
with a quick transition, she began excited
plans for attending the funonl,
which Involved a trip by boat to Portland
and a long and arduous ride In
e day coach. But the thought ef all
una, cvuyieu Willi miW?IV Q||t,
did not daunt the little lady. She
would go.
"But, at least, Miss 8n#aa," tnnd
the messenger, "you'll not take Bse
Emily with you."
"And, ciy dear," said the lady to
tha woman, when she told her story
oyer a cold lunch, "what do you oop

The woman who had charge of the

of being well Informed on

where instructions were being given
and after making the usual prelim
raary apologies, asked the youug woman
In charge to demonstrate the oper

what she should do In case she whijbed

failed to satisfy her craving for Instructions,
and the climag was
reached when she Innocently reqdprt

ISLE OFJMANCE
Monte Cristo Famed m History
and Legend.
Rumor That Ex-President Wllaof)
Would Make Hie Home There
Awakened World's Interest.
Newspaper reports to the effect
that ex-President Wtlson had bought
the Island of Monte Cristo In tho
Tuscan archipelago, as the home for
his retirement, caused the Home
Epoca to publish an Interesting account
of this romantic island, six
miles square, which the elder Dumas
assigned as a title to the hero of his
famous novel, "The Count of Monte
Cristo." Ex-President Wilson, says
the Itoine correspondent of the London
Morning Post In summarizing the
Epoca story, even had he so wished,
could not have purchased the island,
which is the property of the Italiun
state, and has been for many years
leased by the king Of Italy.
In the quiet days before the war,
Victor Emmanuel III and Queen Elena
used to pass some of their happiest
hours qt Monte Cristo, far froui the
tmcs ui siuie ana no* near uio iraiidn
peninsula?for Monte Crlsto Is by no
means easily accessible. Before the
king, that well known sportsman uud
Alpinist, the Marchese Carlo Ulnori,
was tenant of the island, which he
acquired In 1880, and on which he
spent during his tenancy large sums.
Before his time Monte Crlsto became,
In 1875, an agricultural colony, dependent
upon tLe penal settlement of
the neighboring Island of Planosa, the
exile of Agrlppa Posturaus, the grandson
of Augustus, who, as Tacitus narrutes,
was there put to death on the
acoessloh of Tiberius. Earlier still,
between 1800 and 1875, Monte Crlsto
was the abode of a strange visionary,
Duvlde Lnzzurettl, who lived In a cave
and funded" that, like St. Fronds of
Assist, he had received the stigmata.
Shortly after the middle of the last
century an Englishman named Taylor
leased the island, laid ont gardens and
constructed ptiids, till he, too, disappeared
from Its history. At that time,
before the union of Italy, Monte Crlsto
wus the property of the grand duchy
of Tuscany, which. In 1850, had seat
four soldiers and a corporal thither
from Elba, whose successor was a certuln
M. Abrlel, a Frenchman in business
at Leghorn. In Abrlel's time the
population rose to eleven, and the two
buildings were erected which form
the nucleus of the present royal shooting
box.
For centuries before 1850 the island
was forgotten by all save Dumas und
his readers, most of whom probably
knew not where It was or whether It
really existed. But there was a
Camalduleelan monastery there In the
Thirteenth century, qf which the ruins
still remain, an evidence of the piracy
then prevalent in the Mediterranean.
Once, In 1241, Monte Crlsto's white
conical rock appeared In world history,
giving Its harae to the naval bottle
fought In its waters between the
fleet of the Emperor Frederick II and
the Genoese ships carrying more than
100 cardinals and other high dignitaries
of the church to take part in the
council convened by Pope Gregory 5X
in ltome. The imperial admiral won,
and carried off his prisoners to Naples

Wooden Shoes and Automobiles.
At first thought there seems to be
no relation between wooden shoes and
automobiles. But one never can tall
these days. Wooden shoes play an
Important part In auto building; illdeed
they probably reduee the cost of
sutos by six and three-tenths cents
each?If figured out by an efficiency
expert.
At first the auto companies provided
high rubber boots for the men who did
the work; but they sooq foupd, says
the Scientific American Monthly, that
soap and rubber did not agree, and
that the bill for rubber boots w*e
quite an Item. And when the wjfc
came on, and the price of rubber
soared, Indeed, It became quite appalling.
So some bright young man got a lot
of wooden sabots?brought from Holland
or somewhere for actors?and
tried them out. The workmen stuffed
paper tightly In around their feet and
encircled their legs with pieces of old
slickers and found that the result was
very satisfactory when worn with the
usual apron.
