Cuba'S Two Meals a Day.

Only two meals a day are served at
Cuban hotels. They live much as
people do in some parts OF France
and Switzerland. You take an orange
or two with a cup of coffee and a roll
in the early morning; a liberal break
last, in courses, is served st IL
o'clock. and a ceremonious dinner at
4 or 5 in the afternoon. This mode
of living is admirably suited to the
climate. and you fall in with tie GUS
tom and like it at once.
The breakfast opens with small
olives and fresh radishes served in the
same dish; the next coursei is fish, then
eggs, meats, etc. You are not asked
what you prefer, but each course is set
before you and you partake of it or
not. Instead OF beginning with fruit,
the Cuban breakfast ends with it
pineapples cut from the stalk the
same morning, bananas freshly pick
ed, a faint and rather over sweet nor
sci, with oranges ad libitum.
In Florida, and in many other
parts of the country, the orange is
cut in halves and its juice and pulp
are passed to the mouth with a tea
spoon. In Havana the orange is
served whole on the table, peeled
down to the juicy 'tmeat" OF the fruit,
and you present the golden ball to
your lips on the prongs Of a fork.
At any and every American hotel
the moment you sit down the ques-
ton is almost flung at you, TEA or
coffee?" Cubans better understand
what is healthful. They follow ma
lures plan and take their meals more
as the lower animals do. Cubans do
not fill their stomachs with fluids
during meals. After breakfast is over,
then tea or coffee is served-coffee in
French style, at least one-half the cup
being filled with milk.-Home 10 ur-

from the western portion OF the state,
