makes her look different from any
other bright, pretty woman, is her
wonderful hair. In these degenerate
days such hair is rare--it is a bright,
Titan rcd, braided in two plaits that
reach TO the edge Of her skirt. The
uight she made her debut was close
enough to the stage to see the tears
streaming down her face us she tried
to do her part, and ever since then
have hoped and believed that she
would succeed. 1t may have been Just
the womanly sympathy that she ex-
cited; it may have been that instinct
that We women share with dogs and
which men scorn, but l have always
felt that in that slight frame there was
a brain that was determined to get
the better of everything, and succeed.
And she has. As "Maryland,n
Southern girl, dear to my heart, she
does wonderful work-such wonderful
work that the theatre is packed night
after night, and, mercenary as that
may sound, the crowding Of tho theatre
does prove a good play and good
actress. Well, she has my best wishes
for success, and it was good to have the
tears first for now she can laugh, and
tho laughing last is best.

him in the White House again, for if we
start this thirdterm buGiness, we
might as well have king at once, and
If VIC do that, we had better take him
young, and be sure of his breeding.
Then we can train him, and it won t
he too much trouble for hIm to be
polite to the nation. II ia a curious
thing, but the real royalties, the verit-
able kings and queens, do trouble them
selves great deal more than the imi-
tation ones, and even the women feel
that they owe something to the people,
and they pay il. Fancy the Duchesse
OF York refusing to have photograph
of her baby sold! | have dear one.
The baby is in her arms, and the
young Duke is leaning over her and
looking at it. These are the things
that make people loyal. But when our
pasteboard king has acute development
OF the head, and forgets that, belong
ing to the masses, he must not object
to the masses looking at his woman
and children, he may mako up his
mind that tho masses are not going 10
care very much for him or them when
their loving admiration is counted of
no worth. No, if we want king, we
must do as those men who train the
race winners We must catch him
young, and be sure that he has good
