common sense, rare thing these days,
that cannot help pcnning these few lines
to say that when Prince Albert died tho
people OF England did not pass around a
subscription paper for the benefit Of the
queen, the first lady Of that land, nor did
ever hear of such a thing being done in
any other country! Why should it be
done in America The first ladies of our
land ought to blush with Indignation at
tho idea of subscriptions Of from 81
to $1,000 being made and publish
ed broadcast to console them for the
loss of husband. If charity is nee
essary, to bc genuine it should he done
without publicity.
"Thoso doctors bulletins are more
than royal in their minute mention. Here
let me say that it is not generally known,
or learned either Ivy American travellers in

and buried by the servants; showing a
knowledge Of sanitary laws superior to

long had a suspicion that there
was good deal of humbug in the excite

people have most likely been made
