to befscnrcely more than u mere
dot on the map, is the group of
bleak and rocky islands of st. Pierre
Miquelon, all that is now left to France
Of her one-time vast ai,s. valuable
possessions in North America. While.
so sr''all, barren and apparently Insight
ficant. these islands are the center of
an extensive fishing industry, which
yearly produces nearly 7OO0O,000 pounds
of Goldfish and furnishes employment to
10000 men.
A small French steamer, the Pro Pa
tria, sailing once in two weeks. is the
only one that touches regularly at the
Islands, and, although less than days
journey from sidnay, the passage
thlther is attended not only by great
discomfort and inconvenience. but
frequently by actual danger.
After having repeatedly lost one and
another of her possessions in North.
America. in179s France was given this
group OF islands. on condition that
she should never fortify them, but use
them only to develop her fisheries. The
population of the island of st, Pierre is
about 1000, which Is increased during
the summer months by 5000 fishing
folk. whoIcome from France to remain
during the summer season.
Early in the spring the schooners
and different vessels arrive, and the
harbor becomes a forest of masts, there
being hundreds ofvessels gathered with
provisions and men. a large number of
them depart for the banks of New
foundland where they remain. during
the entire fishing season ofssiX or eight
months.
The life OF the ordinary bank fish
erman is a most wild and dangerous
one. Many Of them have left their
families in some village in France,
others in ST, Pierre. but whether in
France or St. Pierre. it is the same

In Woman's World.

DR.. Woods Hutchinson, iconoclast!.in
ordinary. to the medical profession, us
usual upsets our previous ideas of
bodily health in an article in Woman's
Home Companion for August. Dr.
Hutchinson has faculty for restoring
to us our self respect, and assuring us
that, left alone, we are not such idiots,
after all. In this particular article,
for instance, he points out that the idea
of eating little in the summertime is
a fallacy. or breakfast, for instance,
he says:
TT is customary to make the first
meal of the day slightly the lightest and
distinctly the plainest and simplest Of
the three. If there be any deficiency of
the appetite, breakfast is the meal at
which this is most likely to show itself.
But this lack of appetite is, in nine
cases out Of ten, clearly traceable to
sleeping in an unventilated room or 30
late hours in foul air the night before,
or to insufficient exercise the proceed
ing day, and is no Indication that the
body really requires less food at this
time. Perfectly healthy men who sleep
with their windows open and go to bed
at a reasonable hour, will tell you that
they enjoy their breakfast as well as
any other meal of the day, and many
even call it their best meal.
Another popular deusion in regard
to the lightness and unimportance of
the breakfast is that widespread sub
terfuge. the continental breakfast
consisting Of a cup of coffee and some
fruit or a single roll. This is a very
pretty breakfast as far as it goes. but
it doesn't go far; and the sole basis
for Its adoption on the continent is
that it is only intended as a. temporary
tide-over, until the real breakfast OF
meat, eggs. fish, with beer or wine,
which Is taken at about 10 or II o. clock,
like a very early luncheon. If you
haven't got a good appetite for break
fast, make it your business to go and
ITO be blinded by this morbid state OF
affairs and deciding that all you really
need is a cup of coffee and roll or an
orange or a puff OF breakfast bran. I
The staple, or what the French call
the piece de resistance, of a breakfast,
should consist OF some form of meat,
fish, eggs or milk, or It's equivalent in
a starch or sugar, like bread, toast or
cakes, says DR.. Woods Hutchinson in
Woman Home Companion for August
These may be supplemented by hot
breads, gems or biscuits, with the pro-
per modicum of fat in the shapeof two
or three pats of butter, sugar and the
alkaline salts in the> shape of soma
and an accessory or appetizer in the
form of tea, coffee or cocoa.
The so-called cereals and breakfast
foods ought not to be made the main
stay of the breakfast. AS accessories
before or after, they are admissible and
useful, but they lack seriously in
steaming power, in proportion to their
weight, bulk and power of satisfying
the appetite.
