When I was a young'un my Dad would take me to cattle auctions. Once, while I was wandering around, I found a monarch's issue out back of the arena. Dad was inside because he wanted to buy a Bull. When I went and showed him what I had found he had me take it up to the auctioners, so it could be returned to its owner.

In my wild youth I traveled a lot. Twice, when I passed through Paris, I tried to seduce a young woman on the Eiffel Tower. In my doddering age of today I link the occaisons to the name of an American city so I won't forget them.
The answer was Cincinatti in that twice a seduction was attempted--2 sins. Cin Cin
Atti = at E= at Eiffel tower

If you think you have one clue in the text look for the other. The clues I give in details are additive to the meaning of the clues in the text.

I'm going to be a bit creative now. We didn't use to do this. If I give you a thumbs up, you're getting close to at least one clue.......but I can't prevent others from giving thumbs up so be careful.

In your additional details you said it was a book read around the world.Is the book for this question or your last one which was Pilgrims Pride?.
Is your meaning of Monarchs royalty.or butterflies?
A monarchs issue could be his/her child.
All the Kings Men? ....God I'm working on 3 hours sleep here.I know it ,I just can't see it. A Lion in Winter? ..no.hmmm if it wasn't 9:15 i would take a nap. Your driving me crazy!.....Was the book written around the same time as Pilgrims Pride?...OK I see I was on the wrong road.will try and get back to you if i don't go crazy..lol....light bulb fading fast.Going to call it a night...check back in the morning...or maybe in the middle of the night if it keeps me awake....
Viable?.....THE "BIBLE "Is that it? The King James issue?....I coulden't sleep it kept bothering me...

My heavens, I not ever were flashed, however I did accidentally flash a couple of individuals as soon as. I was once within the sanatorium a while again and made up our minds to take a stoll to the merchandising field. Well, I wasn't considering what I was once dressed in and, permit's simply say that the ones sanatorium robes do not go away plenty to the creativeness at the bottom. The nurse got here up from at the back of me and positioned a blanket over my shoulders . . . I was once brooding about why it was once a bit of drafty again there!

I have no clue what a "monarch's issue" would be. King/ queen's something???
---EDIT---
In looking at other's answers (specifically gable), I've determined the answer is "GAVEL".
Look at the second entry in my source.
