Being invited out to breakfast, I was
promptly on hand at 7:3O a. M, with a

hour for breakfast OF course, / do not
believe for a moment that any family ha-

are people who put on a heap of Tugs, as
the slang phrase goes, whenever they

BILE
Speaking of late breakfasts 1 am re-
minded of what De Quincy wrote about
the dinner hour. Do you know how rad
ically 1t has changed with the advance of
civilization? In Henry WIS time the
court dined at II in the forenoon. Louis
XII considered that hour shockingly late,
but changed his own regular hour of $3.50
to IL, in gallantry to his young English
bride. and brought down his gray hairs
to late hours in the forenoon. In Crom-
wells time they dined at l p. m. Next
came the English revolution. the great eff
fects of which were perceived IN dinner.
People now dned at 2 So Addison dined
for his last thirty years, and so Pope din
ed. In 1740 Pope complained because Lady
Suffolk dined so late as Z. In oxford,
about 1915, there was a general move in
the dinner hour Those colleges which
dined at began to dine at 4; those that
had dined at L. translated their hour to 5
These continued good general hours until
about Waterloo. After that era 6, which
had been somewhat of gala hour, was
promoted to the fixed station of dinner
time in ordinary, and there. perhaps, it
will rest for centuries. For a more fes-
tai dinner Z, 8, 8, 10 have all been in requi-
sition since then, but nobody habitually
dimes later than 10. There is a classical
case of an Irishman who must have dined
much later than 10, because his servant
protested, when others were enforcing the
dignity of their masters by the lateness
of their dinner hours, that his master in
variably dined tomorrow"

the value to health of the pure liquid

every Objectionable substance.

slow and Fnnt HusI,Inr.

There is great difference in the
amount of corn that can be husked
by men who have had equal practice
in the art. Much depends on how the
husker began when he learned his
business, We remember an old man
who had always an apparently slow
motion in handling stalks and detach-
ing the huslSs from the ears. Yet he
would huss forty to fifty bushels OF
good corn in day, putting up the
stalks as he went along. The secret
was that he made every motion tell.
There was just the same way of seiz-
ing the stalk each time, and the same
method of stripping the husks and
breaking off the ear. 1t makes hard
work for the hands II pursued all day.
1t usually takes sixty to seventy ears
of corn to fill bushel basket so that
1t will she'll out a bushel. Multiply
this by forty or fifty bushels, and it
will be seen that there is no time to be
lost by husker who will get out that
&any bushels Of ears in day.

Hue 1t Took the Boy Twenty Years to
Do His Mothers Errand.
Twenty years in which to do an er.
rand is a long time, but that is the
period consumed by Charles Wright, a
Monticello (Minn.) farmer, who arrived
here with his wife and three children
to-day, says a Wilmot, S. D. special.
Twenty years ago the Wright family
lived at Fox Lake, Wis, and one day
Mrs. Wright, who was Mr.. Wright's
second wife, ordered Charles to go to
town and get her clothesline. Being
offended at something, the boy started,
in the direction Of the town and then
ran away, going to Minnesota, where he
has since been living, at Monticello. A
search was made for him, but without
success, and finally Mr.. and Mrs.
Wright removed to this place, where
they purchased farm. Some time ago
Charles Wright, who had married and
had been blessed with children, heard
that a man named Wright, who form
erly lived in Fox Lake, was living here,
and on investigation found that 1t was
his father. Bringing his whole family,
he came here on visit, and before go"
ing to the house purchased a clothes
line. as his mother had told him to do
twenty years ago. Walking into the
house he dropped the line at the feet Of
Mrs. Wright, who is now an aged wom-
an. and calmly announced that he had
brought the line. The old couple recog-
nized the man at once, and all day the
Wright home has been the scene Of a
celebration.
