KOW THE NORMANS DINED.
Princes and Barons Lived as Sump
tuously as tha Monks of Old.
The Norman dined at 9 In the
morning and supped at o, the uunate
Advertiser says. The tablea of tha
princes, prelates and great barons
ere sumptuously frmisveu th
very delicacy they could i-roeuie
from foreign part. The monks of
Canterbury had seventeen dishes
every day, besides a dessert; and tha
monks of St Swlthln'8, In Winches' n,
complained to Henry II. agahiBt thelt
abbot for taking away three dishes
they had previously been allowed.
Thomas a' Becket gave 5 (equiva
lent to $15 of our money) for a dlpb
of eels. When this proud prelate
went on a Journey he bad In his train
ght warons, each drawn by five of
the stronp-'st horses. Two of these
agons contained ale, one the furni
ture of his thapel, another the furni
ture of his kitchen: the others were
filled with provlsons. clothes and oth
er necessaries. He had besides
twelve pack horses carrying trunks
containing his money, plate, books
nd the ornaments of the altar. To
each of the wagons was chained a
fierce mastiff, and on each of the pack
horses an ape or a monkey.
Pictures of Presidents.
In every department, and In fact In
every bureau, are to be found the pic
tures of the former heads of those de
partments or bureaua. Pictures of all
of the presidents are not In the White
House, but many are to be found
there.
Neither are the pictures of the
wives of all the presidents, those who
occupied the position of "first lady of
the land," to be found In the White
House, though a goodly number have
been preserved. It Is rather a nota
ble fact that the pictures of nearly all
the women who have graced the posi
tion of mistress of the White House
are placed In the lower rooms and cor
ridors. This region might be termed
the basement, though it scarcely mer
its that position In architecture.
AH of these corridors are used at
the big functions at the White House,
and no doubt morn people see the pic
tures of the women than would b-
the case If they were hung In the up
per rooms.
Literary Favorites.
The Paris Gaulols baa been asking
Its readers to name the 25 greatest
writers In the world up to the present
day. The list which resulted from the
rolces given by 11.247 readers runs:
Victor Hugo, Shakespeare, Racine,
Cornetlle, Vergil, Mollere, Homer,
Dante, Goethe, Bossuet La Fontaine,
Lamartlne. Chateaubriand, Voltaire,
Cicero. Pascal. Musset, Ralzac, Soph
ocles, Horace, Schiller, Plato, Cer
vantea, J. J. Rousseau and Milton.
Votes were given for 432 other auth
ors.
It will be noticed that the list con
tains the name of no living writer.
and that 14 of the 25 are French, three
Latin, two Greek, two English, two
German, one Italian and one Spanish.
New England Pie.
Some poor dwelled In the benight
ed beyond of Chicago asks what a real
New England pie Ib like. It probably
will not help him to be told, but If he
means apple, It la like an essay by
Emerson liquified with the music of
Massenet and spiced with the cyni
cism of Shaw; if he means pumpkin.
It Ib like some of Gounod's music

The Batha of Old Roma.
At the end of the third centurr
after Christ there were In Rome 11
large public baths and 926 smaller
ones. The Datns 01 uaracaua couia
accommodate at one time 1,600 people,
Ihme of Diocletian. 3,600. Taking
1.000 as the average of each of tte
public baths, and 60 as that of each of
the private baths, it appears that at
any minute bathing accommodation:
wore possible for 62,000 people In
ancient Rome. Counting on a popu
lation of 2,000,000, the figure generally
given as the correct one. It would thus
seem that ample privillges were af
forded every day for every Inhabitant
of the Imperial City.
A Meerschaum City.
The town of Vallecas, In Spain, is
iln.ost entirely built ot meerschaum.
Vallecas baa on Its outskirts great

V."hcn Prinrprs Victoria of England,
daughter of Qur-en Alfxandre, was a
girl of fourteen It bi-iair.e her duty
one day to act as hn?iess at a juvenile
entfrt'nment at Marlhoroue1! House.
In the middle of it she suddenly diB.
appeared. A mews;on;nr wns dispatch
ed to Buckingham Paince to see If the
trimiit had run away to "rrandma,"
but she wasn't there. At lait a letter
from her to the Princess of Wales was
dUc-overed i'j the sekonl.-ooni, begging
"mother" not to be anirry; she did
"linte parties" so, tir.-l she hd go:ie
to stay with the Duchess of 'feck till
this one was over.
Not liking; parties 1ms been a char
acteristic of this p.-iniess ever since
though, having a Btrong sense of duty,
which developed as she gi pw older,
she doe -n't run av:ay from them any
more. But those who know her know
that If she could clioope her life t
would be on far from court, a life free
from demands of etlq-iette. and spent
a-'-ong the friends she loves. When
ever she can escape f:oM the formali
ties that surround 1 er she does so.
Stories are told of her planning visltt
Incognito with her sisters or other
members of the court to some tea
room or shop, where for a little while
fhe can do Just as other women do
fch likes to drop anonymous sur
prises on the children she encounters,
ns once when she was shopping in
Penrith, and saw three small boys
looking longingly at the toys in a win
i'oa The princess Im'ired:.itely took
the part of Santa Clous, nrd for onco
in their liv-s those pr.mil ard ragged
boys had oil the toys tln-y v ented.
Princess Victoria has a pnod deal of
tact, soys "The Geut'.ewcxan." and
while she carc3 little about court life
her influence has hrovrjht about sev
eral needed chr.r.i?es t':cre. The
Queen's ladies-in-waiting hive-special
reason to be grateful to her. Up to
1 the time of King Edward's accession
the breakfa.-t hour for the ladles-in-waliing
was 7 o'clock in the sum'ner
nnd 7.3J in the winter. They didn't
lihe it, of course, but in so great a
household chances are not easily
n-.adc. Princess Victoria, however, got
the hour changed to 8 o'c'ook for all
the year round. It was she, too, who
secured a much more comfortable
breakfast room for them than the on?
at their disposal during Queen vic
tory's reign.
The princess's otvn boudoir at Buck
ingham Palace was arranged entirely I
hy herself, and Is said to be a delight
ful room. The walls aro lined with 1
rare pictures, most or tnem guts to
her, end there are hosts of photo
graphs which she has taken in ram
bles around Balmoral, Wlnsor and
Sandringham. In this boudoir she
likes to spend much time, reading and j
writing. She knows several languages ;
and is a very good musirlan. '
True to her nature, she has always
refused to have a lady-in-waiting
When she goes to any public function
Eh.e is accompanied by one of tbo
Queen's, as etlq'iette forbids her ap
pearing alone. She lias, by the way,
several faithful attendants, who al
v. ays like going about with her when
they can. These are her nephewd
and nieces, with whom she has been a
great favorite ever since they were
little things.
