breakfast? asks Dioscoride in

Immediately after rising.
Dioscoride believes in the old saw
that one mans meat may be an
other mans poison. Every person
must choose his own morning
nourishment, but choose 1t with
wisdom. A great deal depends
upon the state of health, the work
one has to do and the size Of the
meal the night before.
Milk chocolate is probably the
Frenchman's favorite morning beV-
erage. Almost all women drink it
and a large majority Of the men.
1t is delicious as they make it in
France, but not too wholesome.
Already rich in fat, when added to
tartines of bread and butter it
forms a food which is exceedingly
difficult to digest. Fat people
should avoid it.
Coffee with milk Is a close Sec
ond. and this means coffee with
chickory in France, which, while
not so good to the taste as our
American brands, is much better

stand the heavy morning meal of
English and Americans. To take
fruit into an empty stomach is to
commit grave error. And as for
pie, American pie-well, we have
never dared ask the French what
they think of that. A dry, hard,
toasted bread called "biscotte" is
the usual companion to the coffee.

England like the idea of a soft

Children who get up late and
have to hurry off to school content
themselves with a large piece of
fresh bread and a little "tablette"
Of dry chocolate. This habit of eat

culiarly French one and forms the
famous little o'clock "gouter" OF
every French child.

Human Skin and Skulls Make Dance
Music for Tibetans
Trumpets Constructed From Thigh Bones Furnish Sweet
Melodies Writer Declares.

gested the traditional music Of
the Scottish Highlands, produced
with a banjo-like instrument,
rythmically twanged, that of the
negro "spirituals. The chanting
of the Lamas is generally a mon
otone, varied with an occasional
rise of a fifth, and sometimes
when an air is sung a second
deeper voice sustains a droning
bass. But the instrumental part
of the ecclesiastical music is most
interesting.
Two wind instruments are en-
ployed-a long, straight trumpet,
sometimes ten feet long, and
kind Of oboe; but the great fea-
ture is the percussion" There
are cymbals and gongs and gongs
and cymbals, and drums ranging
from huge things several feet in
diameter to those small ones
made Of human skulls and skin.
Skulls are not the only portion
of their ancestors from which
these fascinating people extract
melody and rhythm. Many an
intriguing game is played on a
native trumpet formed from a
human thighbone drilled and
holed and adapted to the produc-
ton of sweet sound. Thus while
the empty skull, mournfully and
monotonously beaten, may evoke
dread thoughts of mortality and
perils from evil spirits beyond
the grave, the once nimble leg
sounds shrill invitation to dance,
although its erstwhile owner has
long departed from the festive
scene.

. Tibetan music-full of strange

strangely akin to Russian-may
be divided into three sections:
the folk tunes, the chanting of

WORDS FROM
THE LIPS OF
WISE MEN

AYO gains without pains.
~ The highest culture speaks
Too swift arrives as tardy as
too slow.
There is no greater misfortune
than not to be able to bear mis-
fortune.
Reputation is not measured by
the acre.
No man is more cheated than
the selfish man.
The man who lives up to all
his opportunities seldom wants
but one.
To him who does everything in
its proper time one day is worth
three.
It's easy to find reasons why
other folks should be patient.
Love can see through colored
glasses. while hate can see
through none.
Revenge converts a little right
into a great wrong.
He who would search for pearls
must dive below.
The beauty of the house is order,
The blessing Of the house Is con.
tent,
The glory of the house is hos
pitality,
The crown of the house is god.
Enjoy your little whilst the fool
is seeking more.
Taking things as they come
does not wear one out so fast as
lodging them.
Convince a man against his will.
He's of the same opinion still,
Arguments makes three enc.
mics to one friend.
The increase of knowledge in
creases the need OF it.
There is no faculty so happy
as the faculty of thinking YOU
are happy.
