Cold Ham-Beans
Choice of Prince

London, April ia. F.. by MaD
English hostesses who have been
vieing among themselves to have the
popular Prince of Wales dine
with them have been dismayed
to find that his Royal High
ness has very abstemious tastes
and eschews all except the simplest
dishes. One Of London's most aris-
tocratic and wealthy families set a
regal banquet before the prince-Iate-
ly, only to find that their guest passed
it all by and chose a plate Of cold
ham and beans.
English physicians attribute the
princes good health to his frugal
diet. abstention from all rich, highly
seasoned dishes. especially flesh
foods. much outdoor exercise, and a
CHEEKY, optimistic disposition.
