AN OLD TINE BREAKFAST.
What One Visitor Was Treated to at
Washingtons Home.

The diary OF Manasse Cutler the
founder OF Ohio and the author OF the
ordinance OF 1887. gives an account of
visit he made TO Mount Vernon
two years after General Washingtou's
death. We say General" Washing
ton. for that was what Mrs. Washing
ton was pleased 20 call him--a copy for
all those good women whose husbands
have won them honor on the field OF
war.
Mr.. Cutler says II was the desire OF
their party 10 arrive at Mount Vernon
In time for breakfast q o'clockl with
Mrs. Washington, but the bad roads
and worse horses detained them, so
they did not reach there until about
10, which Mrs. Washington regretted
but she said, breakfast would be
ready in a few minutes" The diary
goes on TO say:
"In a short time she arose and desired
us to walk into another room, where a
table was elegantly spread with ham,
cold corned beef. cold fowl, red her
ring and cold mutton, the dishes orna-
mented with sprigs Of parsley and
other vegetables from the garden. At
the head Of the table was the tea aud
coffee equipsge, where she seated her.
self and sent the tea aud coffee to the
company"
The point Of Interest is that break
fast menu-fve kinds OF meat decked
with sprigs OF parsley and accompa-
MED with divers vegetables. Isn't
there an appctizing array and doesn't
the heart long for just such n scene?
OF course the mere feeders, the fell
lows that banker for hot things, may
not think so, but the very mention Of
cold ham, cold chicken, cold mutton
and cold corned beef all 10 the same
breath IS an appeal to a conscientious
appetite that is unresistlng. And that
was a breakfast of the long ago.
Most generous providers these well
TO do people In the early days! How
good everything must have tasted!
That roast chicken and roast mutton
and that great tender clean chunks OF
It. that be would not dare say which
was best for each was best Compare
It with our latter day breakfasts-a
roll and an egg aud cup OF coffee!
OF course we like our way but that
is possibly because these are degen-
crate days.-Ohio State Journal.
