WAYS OF A MEDIEVAL BARON
Breakfast Formidable Affair in .
 Thirteenth Century Household

From the Thirteenth century at least (however they may have done in earlier times), the English nobility were not ashamed to organize their estates and their households on strict business principles. writes G. G. Coul- ton, in Harper's Magazine for Novem- Der Still greater was the need of or der in this sixteenth century. when the feudal nobility were often poorer than the rapidly growing merchant class, and when social and religious revolution was already in the air. The minuteness of the Percy household regulations is simply astounding. Let us take breakfast as an example. A generation or two before this, break fast had hardly counted as meal; when recognized at all, it was simply a snack, just a mouthful and a single draught to wash it down, which the hardy man disdained as in our days he disdains afternoon tea.
 But manners were now changed; more than four pages are devoted to a specification of the Percy breakfast. beginning: This is the order of all such breakfasts as shall be allowed daily in my lords house every Lent. |. $ on Sunday tMonday) Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, except my lords children, which shall have breakfasts every day in the week" My lord and my lady had together "a loaf of bread in trenchers, two manchets, a quart of beer, quart of wine, two pieces of salt fish, six ba- conned herring four white herring or a dish of sprats" My Lord Percy and Master Percy. aged about 10 and 8. had half loaf of household bread, a manchet, a bottle of beer dish of butter, a piece of salt fish. dish of sprats, or three white her rings" Then comes a breakfast for the nurse for my Lady Margaret and Master Ingram Percy: A manchet, a quart of beer. a dish of butter, piece of salt fish. dish of sprats or three white herring" And so on, through breakfast for my lords brethren and head officers of house. hold" Breakfast for two messes of gentlemen O tn chapel and a mess of children down to the porter's lodge and the stable
 It may be as we'll to explain that the trenchers were slices of bread, used by the upper classes as dishes that manchet was a loaf of fine bread. and a bottle con- tained half a gallon. The regular allowance was thus one quart of liquor per person.

and his folklore. On the west coast of
Greenland he is mostly a protesting
Christian, as a result of the Danish mis-
siOns. On that coast the race is largely
mixed with European blood, mostly
Danish, but the life is purely Eskimo.
As becomes a race with the antiquity
which Professor Boyd Dawkins attri-
butes to it, it had, even in Egede's day,
attained to the state of having a smart
set" The members of this set behaved
in the time of Hans Egede very much
as we are led to believe the similar set
behave in our own country, their
"house parties" being models Of what
decOrum would forbid.
The method of wooing is somewhat
different among the Eskimos from that
prdcticed in our country. The young
man, sometimes accompanied by friends
or relations, sets out for the hut Of the
lady of his choice and carries her off,
her family usually consenting. AS a
matter Of propriety she has to resist
strenuously, even If she likes it; and oc
casionally the damsel is such stickler
for etiquette that she even runs away
from the new home-but quite expect
ing to be carried back. If this annoys
the bridegroom he scratches the soles
of her feet slightly, and this makes her
settle down. This method seems to
have some advantages over our own IN
certain, tedious. and expensive method.
An Eskimo husband enjoys the privilege
of being allowed to beat his wife with
out anyone thinking any the worse of
him. But sometimes, according TO Nam
sen. the privilege is assumed by the
other side. as in case to which he re-
fers. When a mans wife dies, the
women surround him and bewail the
dead, while he responds by sobbing and
wiping his nose. This is also according
TO hansen.
Hans Egede does not bear out Pro-
fessor Boyd Dawkins completely on the
subject of their lack of respect for the
dead. He tells of their aversion toward
any contact with the dead, but he de-
scribes their method of burial and funer-
al customs. The nearest relations carry
the body to burial, which is carried out
by merely placing quantity OF stones
over 1t. But Egede says that If the de-
ceased have no friend or relation. he
may lie long enough where he dies. Con-
sidering that this refers to the most civ
ilized Eskimos of Greenland, it is prob
ably sufficient confederation of the pro-
fessor's information. The chief charac-

WHO ARE THE ESKIMOS?
How These People Impressed Nam
sen. Eqede and Prof. DaWkins.

The question of who the Eskimos are
is most usually answered by deserip-
ton Of their life and characteristics.
Although a great deal ought to be
known about the race now at first hand,
since there has been so great a rush for
the pole, most writers seem to rely very
largely on the information given by
Hans Egede in his book which was
translated into English in 1745. Hans
Egede was a missionary from Denmark
to Greenland, where he labored twenty
five years. His book was entitled, "a
Description of Greenland" and con-
tains a great deal that is extremely
quaint. The Eskimo was then what he
IS now, excepting so far as he has de-
Perforated through contact with civil
lied" men.
The Eskimo is by no means a saw
age. He has his standard of moral rec
titude, his religion, his social customs,
