Hints on Carrying.

Not only do the comfort and satisfac-
ton Of good dinner depend greatly
upon the carver, but the supply for the
next days dinner also depends upon it.
No matter how well the cook has done
her part, if a joint be multilated and
hacked to pieces it can neither be en-
joyed at the time nor can it appear
again at the other meal; SO that a good
joint may be really wasted for want of
attention to this seemingly unimportant

Great Men Who fire Early RiserS.

Although there is no necessary connec-
tion between early rising and brilliant
career. it is an Interesting fact, says Il
writer in London Tit-Bits, that many of
our most eminent men and women spend
less time in their beds and leave them
much earlier than most of us.
Through the whole of his working life
the late President Faure was rarely If
ever in bed after { o'clock in the morn
Ing. Even when president he invariably
rose at 5 O'clock. even i'll the depth Of
winter, had a cold bath and was immers-
ed in his books in his library by c o'clock
To this habit Of early rising tina tanner
president attributed much Of his success
in life.
M. Jules Verne is another practical be-
lever IN the virtues Of rising early. His
practice is to rise at dawn III summer
and at in winter. After a light break
fast he takes up his pen and writes indus
triously until II o'clock, when his days
work is complete, and he can devote him
self to recreation. ''If 1 had not been an
early riser," he says, 'I should never
have written more books than I have
lived years.
German philosopher and traveller. rarely
spent more than four hours in bed, and,
on the testimony of Sir James Sawyer,
was frequently content with two hours;
and Littre, who lived to be eighty,
thought that to spend more than five
hours a day in bed was shameful self-in-
diligence. Although his invariable hour
of rising was o'clock, he scarcely ever
left his desk until 8 in the morning, or
until sunrise warned him that a new day
had dawned.
There are few earlier risers than the
kings and queens OF Europe, who might
pardonabIy indulge In later hours than
their subjects. In his younger days the
Austrian emperor used to rise at 4:30 in
| summer and o'clock in winter, and was
paying his morning visit TO the stables
when nearly all Vienna was sleeping
The German emperor has never been a
sluggard and is usually hard at work
in his study at s o'clock end on horse
| back at 6, while the empress shares her
husbands love OF ths morning hours, and
may be seen cantsring on her favorite
mare two hours before the world breaks
| It's fast.
King Oscar of Sweden and Norway Is
usually to be found among his beloved
books between and every morning,
and the kings Of Italy and Roumania
have also left their beds at that hour
The young queen of Holland, like her
mother, rises at =, and at about the same
hour the Queen Regent of Spain may be
seen, in somber black, ''fat and fIorid," on
her way to mass.
Many of England's greatest men have
scorned the delights of bed while living
'1aborious days" Brunell, the great en-
gineer, who lived to be eighty, rarely
spent more than four hours IN bed at
any time of his crowded life; and Sir Will
liam Arrol, the engineer of the Tay and
Forth bridges, and the Brunei of our
day, rises earlier than any Of his en-
ployes, and will frequently crowd twenty
hours work into one day during the
progress of his great enterprises.
Art, too. has it's early risers among its
most eminent men. Mr.. G. F. Watts, the
great Academican, has rarely allowed his
ped to keep him away from his brushes
latex than avA o'clock In the morning.

|ST, PAUL SKY SCRAPERS,
Business People Meets
of Commerce Building.

The Chamber of Commerce building
takes a front place among the sky
serapers of st. Paul on account of the de-
STABILITY of It's offices and location. 1t
Is one of the most accessible and con-
veniently located of all the downtown
office buildings, being within peach of
the street car lines and railroad depots,
adjacent to the Metropolitan opera house
and just across the street from the Ryan
hotel. While among the oldest of the
larger bu.- -Iings, extensive alterations
Sithin the last few years have made it
modern in every respect
The building is nearly half a block in
