Being very fat, the king Of Portu-
gal is forbidden by his physicians TO
eat much meat. lie calmly disobeys
the doctors, however, and is especial
ly fond of beef, of which he eats
great quantities. When he visited
England "A few years ago, says Mainly
About People, he was stopping at
Lord Salisbury's country seat. One
day at dinner King Carlos was asked
what had impressed him most during
his short stay in England.
He replied. thoughtfully: "Weu. I
think English roast beef is very de-
Hghtful."
"Oh.' laughed King Edward, "surely
something else has impressed you as
well?"
"Ah." was the reply, "of course the
English boiled beef also is delight
full"
The dish dearest 20 the heart OF
William Of Germany is sauer kraut,

together. The kaiser also is passion
