A tall brunette with curly black hair

in the week any number of times and never
attracts any comment. but the proprietor

smile still played on her lips as he stared.

handed the paper to her.
"Humphl that's odd" he muttered.
She's got diamond set in her teeth"
Everybody who secs the customer is SINH

OF the American colony in London DO
one is so much gossiped about, 50 bepraised
and slaudered in turn; possibly no one is SO
wealthy, and certainly 10 one lives in such
brave show of outward magnifcence as
Mrs. John w. Mackay, who is now a per-
manent English resident, having acquired a
home in the famous Carlton house terrace
not surpassed in splendor even by the vast
but dull sbodes of royalty.
Mrs. Mackny is a woman cast in queenly
mold, and certain to attract homage wheT-
ever she may be placed. She is Of medium
hight, very dignified 10 manner, very gem
tie and sweet-voiced, rather pale, with soft
dark hair, always simply dressed aud with
dark and strongly marked brow5 and lashes.
Tho beauty Of her face lies, however, in her
eyes, which are large and full, with a gray
iris that becomes violet at times and pupils
that dilste with emotion.
The glories Of Mrs. Mackay's house are
chanted by all London. 1t stands in posi-
ton as unrivsled as that of Mrs. Whitney
in New York-more exceptional, in fact,
since Fifth avenue is a long street and the
terrace all too brief. The house was built
originally by the third Duke of Leinster for
his town residence, and was sold by the
present duke TO c. II. Sanford, a million
Rire, who, owing to the Argentine COM
plications, was obliged to part with it after
only two years tenancY. Some ten months
ago Mr.. Mackay bought the property for
his wife, and to it has been removed all the
furniture, pictures and art treasures from
her hosel in Paris.

THE ROOMS OF STATE.

The drawing-room faces on the terrace.
IL is long apartment, subdued Ia color
ing, though with dominant note Of dull
pink. The walls, paueled in blue and gray,
are almost hidden by the gobelin tapestries
on one side and by the numerous pictures
adorning the other two. An easel draped
with an exquisite BIT of early Italian en-
broldery stands at one and holding picture
by Van Cuyp, while side by side hang
CabanePs lifelike and striking portraits OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Mackay.
Opening from this pink drawing.room is
the ballroom, measuring over 80 feet in
length and % in width, On one side row
Of long French windows lead to a broad
balcony, from which charming vista opens
out, stretching across St James Park and
BirdcaGe Walk, taking in The Mall aud
ending in dim-gray perspective of hoary
Westminster and the modern Clock Tower.
The highly polished floor is protected bV a
large velvet carpet of dull, harmonious
tones; the ceiling is paneled with
paintings in the italian paiadian
style of che sixteenth century
upon the walls are continued the
beautiful Cozette tapestries, scenes from
the history of Don Quixote, after Cuvp's
celebrated designs. A grand piano, COW
cred with an inwrought velvet cloth, stands
at one end tlanked by another graceful ar
raugement of palms and ferns. The furni-
ture--couches. sofas, chairs, ottomans.
tdOteuits, are all covered with exquisite
antique necdlework, veri.able Louis XIV.
embroideries, and among the many valu-
able pictures that entrance an artist soul
are masterpieces by Rubens, Wouverman,
Gerard Dow, Teners, Jan Steen, Bonuat
and the now famous Meissonier portrait OF
Mrs Mackay.
With such house Mrs. Mackay doubt
less thinks she might be happy-were it
not for the De Bonynges!

THE INTERIOR.

Like most British mansions, No. 6 Carlton
house terrace is dull and cold OF exterior,
but from the moment the entrance doors
open one seems to step into an enchanted
world. The wide, oblong hall contains
some OF the finest specimens of decorative
work in England; the ceiling is oruameuted
in high relief picked out in blue and gold,
with crossbeams of polished oak. Upon the
walls hang series OF exquisite gohelin
tapestries of the seventeenth century, exc
cuted by Cozette. A very fine projecting
fifteenth century marble chimnevpiece oc-
cupies the center of the left-hand wall
Opening from this hall at the far end is
Mrs. Mackays boudoir, or "book ROOM" a
little snu2gery tkat appeals at once to the
heart Of a Iitterateur. The one wide win
dow, richly draDed in somber brocadss and
lace. looks out upon st. James park, and
placed at right angles with it is a large
writing table which savors rather of use
than frippery, for Mrs. Mackay is the most
methodical and conscientious of correspond
ents. All about this pretty den are book
cases reaching nearly to the ceiling, we'll
stocked with volumes in all the modern
languages. Mrs. Mackay is an accomplished
linguist. One or two low chairs, en- inla1d
tea table. an Oriental circular stand, and
several accessories in the way of odd tabou-
ret5 and ottomaus complete the furniture.
To the left, passing from the book room
and through doer-the panels of which,
like all those on this floor, are richly inlaid
with intarsia work, the surrounds and

Crime Made to Order.

Allen Wilson says in the St. Louis
Globe Democrat: "While was student
at Yale an incident occurred that fur
nished amusement to the police fol-
weeks. Some of us were at the station
house one winters evening for the pur-
pose of bailing out two of our comrades
who had been arrested for skylarking.
While we were waiting, great hulking
tramp walked in and asked the lieuten.

with the refusal he received, he still per-

but suppose I can help it; how will

his fist and knocked the lieutenant from
his stool into the spittoons near the stove.

Famous AerOlites.

OF the vast number of meteors seen in
the sky, the great majority are of in
significant size--mere particles OF cosmio
dust that are completely consumed on
striking the atmosphere. Yet many of
the masses are large enough to reach the
earth's surface, and some are Of great
size, quite a number being known that
weight more than 1000 pounds. This
list of some of the more famous aerolites
has just been compiled by M. Jaques
Leotard. /. The areolite which long
served as a bench at the door of the
Church of Caille, in the Maritime Alps;
now in Paris; weight, 1875 pounds. 3.
The aerolite found in 1888 at Tucoman,
Argentine Republic; now in London;
weight, 1896 pounds. 8. The aeorolite
discovered in Siberia by Pallas, in 174O,
now in Paris; original weight, 1876
pounds. 4. The aerolite which fell in
1916 at Santa Rosa, New Granade;
weight, 2010 pounds. 5. The aerolite
which served as on idol, afterward as a
church ornament, at Charcas, Mexico;
finally taken to Paris; weight, 2290
pounds. 6. The aerolite discovered in
1861 at Melbourne; the two pieces, one
in Melbourne and the other in London,
weight together, sO4o pounds. Z. The
aerolite of Bendego, near Rahia, Brazil, ,
discovered in 1916 and taken to Rio
Janei1o in 1877; weight, 13, 1854 pounds.
8. The aerolite which was found near
the source of the Yellow River, China,
and was nearly fifty feet high; weight,

BUTTER TEN MONTHS OLD.

Lately I opened a jar of butter that I
made and packed away fully ten months
ago, writes farmers wife from Paris,
III, and I find it still sweet and good. I
don't know of any way that butter as
old as that can be made to retain all of
the sweet fresh flavor of newly churned
butter, but if it can be kept free from
rancid or old taste that long it is good
enough. I first carefully work out all
the butternilk and put in a spoonful of
granulated sugar along with the salt,
and cover the bottom of the jar with
salt and pack the butter down firmly in
smooth layers, with a sprinkle of salt
between the layers, and fill in this way
to within four inches of the top. I then
wet piece of clean muslin in salt water
and lay it on the butter and tuck it
down around the edges and cover the
cloth with salt IN inch deep to prevent
the brine from growing weak at the top.
After that I made strong brine, scald
it and skim it, and when perfectly
cold and clear fill the jar with brine to
the top and cover tightly to keep out the
dust and set it away in cool place.
The butter should always be kept under
the brine, and no more should be taken
out at one time than is necessary for a
few days use, for the butter thus kept
will grow rancid soon when fully ex-
posed to the air.-NeU York World.

Resigned Seats in the Senate.

Eight Presidents of the United States,
in their early political careers, resigned
seats in the Senate for different causes.
John Quincy Adams went out in 1908
because the Massachusetts, Legislature
had insulted him. In 1888 Andrew
Jackson resigned his seat in the Senate to
become Justice of the Supreme Court OF
Tennessee. Later he was elected to The
Senate again and he retained his seat un-
til 1925, when he left it to take the Presi-
Dental office. He was the only one OF
the Presidents who passed directly from
the Senate to the Presidency. Pierce,
when he resigned his seat in the Senate
in 1912, believed that he was retiring to
private life. But he was drawn into the
Mexican war, and the result of his popu-
larity achieved in the field was his choice
as President ten years after his supposed
retirement. Martin Van Buren, and
William Henry Harrison resigned their
seats in the Senate in the same year
1S29-the one to become Governor Of
New York and the other to accept the
position of Minister to Colombia. James
Munroe left the Senate in 1874 to be
Minister to France. James Buchanan
left the Senate in 1S45 to be Secretary
of State under Polk. John Tyler left in
1886 because he could not obey the in
structions of the Legislature of Virginia.
He and his colleague, Leigh, were in
structed to vote for Bentons resolution
expunging the vote of censure on Presi-
dent Jackson. Both of them refused to
vote for the resolution, aud Tyler re-
signed. He was not the only member OF
the Senate to resign because OF differ.
ence of opinion with the Legislature of
State. Mr.. Tyler's colleague resigned
shortly after him, and for the same
reason. In North Carolina no less than
four Senators resigned because they diff
fered from the Legislature oa important
matters.-St. Louis Republic.
