Hearty Eating

At the midday repast in the Louvre,
Henry ~, of France, had served to
him dishes of a variety limited only
by his imagination. These meals, al
ways heavy and rich, included four
kinds Of soup. Four entrees, a course
of boiled meat, a ten-pound joint of
beef, a side of mutton, capon, and
three other chickens, is a fair sum-
mary Of the main dishes usually
served, while on Sundays, Tuesdays
and Thursdays these were augmented
by a capon pastry. On days of fast,
lighter dishes were helped out with a
roasted pike or carp. The evening
meals were not much lighter than
those Of midday and vegetables never
appeared on the menu.-Detroit News.

never think Of purchasing smokes of
their own. He takes advantage Of the
tradition, observed even by the "bor-
rowers," that it is unforgivable to &C.
cept the last cigarette in pack. Ac-
cordingly, the man in question always
carries, in addition to his regular sup
ply, a special pack with just one
smoke left in it. When he Is pestered
by acquaintances who make a habit
of "grubbing" cigarettes, he hands
over the prepared pack. Invariably 1t
is handed back with the words,
THANKS, old top, but you only have
one left and 7 won't smoke your last

Hunters Greed Blamed

The biological survey says that mar
ket hunters are probably the direct
cause Of the extinction of the passen-
ger pigeons. These birds were so
called "colony Birds" and nested in
great quantities in certain vicinities.
This made it possible for hunters to
wipe out great numbers with very
little effort. There are many tradi.
lions accounting for the extinction of
these birds, one being that forest fires
in woods where they roasted destroyed
great numbers.

Cat and Nine Lives

The origin Of the saying that "a cat
has nine lives" is obscure, but It Is
generally supposed to have originated
in ancient Egypt where cats were OBJ
jects Of worship. Pasht was the cat
headed goddess Of the Egyptians. Ac-
cording to one writer on mythology,
this goddess was supposed to have
nine lives and probably gave rise to
the common expression about cats
having nine lives.

break of the World War when HIS
country was greatly agitated re-
garding the position Romania was
to take in the conflict. During
the first two months of the war
Rumania, under the rule of the
late King Charles, 1t was charged,
had been secretly aiding the Cen
trail Powers. Ferdinand took the
oath as king upon the death OF
his uncle In October, 1914. and
Immediately announced that Ru-
mania would remain neutral un-
less attacked.
During a speech from the throne
in November. 1915, King Ferdinand
was shouted down with cries Of
Down with Hungary; Down
with Germany" Down with the
Hohenzollerns." This demonstra-
tion was taken as an indication
