Tho aftorhoon cup of tea, refreshing alike in the depth of winter and tho hottest summer day, is beneficial—so long as it does not develop into a heavy meal. A medical practitioner, in discussing the question with _ i all Mall Gazette” representative, said the idea of miking a heavy meal of tea, as is done by a large number of people who sit down to a well-loaded table, is a mistake. Four heavy meals a day, he said, are certainly too many; three are quite ample for any ordinary person. The afternoon teas of the drawing-room, when they are limited to a cup of tea and a thin slice of bread and butter, are practically harmless, but in a large number qt middle-class families tho family sit round a table and make a very serious meal indeed, which, from a health standpoint, is as harmful as it is really unnecessary. Certainly, if tea is wanted in the afternoon, it should be purely as a refresher. The evils of overfeeding are many, and a largo number of people suffer in one way or another from eating too much. People would probably be surprised at the benefit they would derive from not taking too many meals. A hearty ■breakfast, a light lunch, and a good dinner in tho evening are all that any man can possibly want. The Count of Turin, who lias had an uncomfortable adventure in the course of a recent late motor trip, was last prominently on_the headline some fifteen years ago. The circumstances were somewhat pcculi/ir. On his way borne from a travel that hail included Abyssinia, Prince Henry of Orleans had delivered himself of some highly-uncomplimentary remarks on the officers of the Italian army. They were promptly taken up, and on his arrival in Paris Prince Henry found a challenge signed “Victor Emmanuel” waiting for him. It was, indeed, the Crown' Prince who had challenged his impulsive kinsman, but it was not the Crown Prince who was allowed to fight him. Dynastic considerations forbade’ that. Another Victor Emmanuel, it wasjdeclded, must honour the signature. So it was the Count of Turin who crossed swords with bis cousin, in a quiet garden just outside Paris, 1 one mid-August morning, and who, after an animated contest, damaged his adversary rather seriously.

He docs so from interested motives—perhaps to back up his own weak position. “The Dresden” Agents are instructed not to discredit rival firms.
