A London cable to the New York
Evening Post says: DR.. Lambert Lack,
surgeon of the throat hospital, has
made an important discovery in refer
ence to cancer, working entirely on
original lines, In opposition to the
germ theory. His experiments prove
the theory that cancer is always due to
a particular injury to what is known as
the basement membrao e, of mucous
membrane, and allied structures. In
this way he has produced cancer in
some lower animals. His investi cations
and results have been examined by
select committee of the Pathological
Society, and declared practically con-
elusive.

AN UNREALIZED DREAM.

Denver Post
In the golden springday of life stood.
On the flower lined border of womanhood
And the sun was bright and the skies
were fair,
And the joy-birds were singing every
where
Then life was a dream that was heaven
AS the sun rose up on the glorious morn
That follows the waning of girlhood's
days,
And the woman basked in it's CHEEKY rays
A suftor came in a manly youth
Whose eyes were mirrors rejecting truth
Whose face an Apollo might envy well,
And whose voice was clear as vesper
But l steeled my heart to the golden
For mad ambition was nesting there
To reign as queen in the tinsel show
Of the upper world, and l babe him so.
A year sped on, and another came.
A knight in the lists Of legal fame.
And he whispered the story low and
And laid his heart at my queenly feet.
But his name was missing from titled
He was 9 but a toiler in life. no more.
And I muffied the blow in regretful phrase
AS he passed from my sight with reprov-
ing gaze.
The fires of ambition warmer burned
Till they smothered love, and I proudly
The warnings of hearts that were brave
and bold
And pure in affection as virgin gold
A king would come with a titled name
And I'd rule as queen in the world OF
fame,
And the years sped on with distressing
pace.
Each pencil.ng lines on my once fair face
Then my heart was pierced. as by gleam-
ing blade,
With the growing fear that I'd die maid
And when hope was waning another came.
And 1 forced a smile and assumed his
name.
The dreamed-O kingdom I'm ruling DER
Is dinghy old corner grocery store.
And / aid my busting old king Of kings
In selling bacon and cheese and lh.lEs.

sweet life, which greatly Influenced her
husbands writings and gave him an
opportunity to bring out the best of
himself. Those who say that he was
sometimes short" at home add that
Mrs. Kipling encouraged him in such
shortness, believing that he could do
his best work when not hampered by
the family circle.
When they came over to this coun-
try only five weeks ago they brought
with them such a quantity of baggage
that it seemed as if they would stay
forever, but Mrs. Kipling said there
was only enough to keep the children
supplied for a short visit. The day
they landed here they all got bron
chitis, and when they were able to be
carried out in the sunshine of Central
Park eight days later they were pale

THE QUEENS LAST DRAWlNGROOh.
After This June She Will Give All Social Duties Over
to Her Daughter.

In June Queen Victoria will hold the
last drawingroom of the season. and
probably of her life, for in May she will
complete her eightieth year, and after
eighty a woman does not hold many
levees or appear much in society.
The drawingroom before the days of
Queen Victoria was a different func-
ton. 1t was given up in the time of
George ~, TO revelry, and it was in
the days of Elizabeth and her success
sors a function devoid of dignity and
devoted to political aims.
The young Queen on her accession,
sixty-two years ago, decided TO make
the drawingroom a formal function,
and ordered it upon such scale that
il should be model for English So
ciety and England society manners.
She changed the style of dress, for
malized the manner OF presentation,
set certain regulations upon the appli-
cants and appointed court chamber
lain who should enforce these rules.
In this way she made the drawingroom
the great society force which it is to-
day. A woman who has been present
ed to the Queen is denied admittance
to no society in the world.
THE CANDIDATES.
AS only three drawingrooms are
held each year by her Majesty, the
number of presentations is limited. and
only few of the many applicants can
be accepted.
To be eligible to the society of the
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1899-03-26

Queen of England a woman must be
undivorced. She can be married or
single but if divorced she cannot be
presented This fact has kept many
danes of high standing away from the
much coveted drawingroom.
The applicant must be known per-
sonaIly or by reputation to the Court
Chamberlain, who will investigate her
antecedents and life ito ascertain if
she is fitted by birth, education, train
ing and associations to meet and touch
the hand Of the Queen of England.
Finally she must be presented per-
sonally by some lady who has been
previously presented at court and who
is responsible in way for her.
When all these details have been
arranged the candidate is visited by
the Court Chamberlain, who gives her
a set of rules which she is to follow.
She must wear court dress with a pre-
scribed length of train. Her hair must
be decorated with court plumes. She
must carry a bouquetiand her arms and
neck must be bare except for gloves
and jewels.
The Court Chamberlain furnishes the
names of firms and persons who are
accustomed to making presentation
gowns, and after he has departed the
plume woman calls, who understands
the placing Of the court plumes. There
can be no deviation from the set form;
no change in style or originality. ALI
must be absolutely correct.
Despite these strict regulations so
numerous are the applicants every
year that may have 10 be turned
away, or recommended to the prelimi-
nary or March drawing rooms which
are presided over by daughter Of the
Queen. The presentation is in itself
very brief affair fer the ordinary
young woman. She enters the pres
ence of her sovereign accompanied by
a married woman who has already
been presented. On entering the door
both bow SO low that their knees near
" touch the floor

They then approach the Queen. The

former bows low again, kisses Her
Majesty's hand and the other follows
her example. Then they back away,
with their faces toward Her Majesty,
bow again before reaching the door
and then back out
The girl who is presented for the
first time must previously rehearse the
presen tation with the assistance of
some experienced persons. Several re-
hearsals are necessary. No earthly
disaster could be greater for an Eng
lish woman than to fall down or other
wise deviate from the path of etiquette
at a drawingroom.
The court dress must be cut low in
the neck and have a train ten feet
long. Considerable practice is neces-
sary before this train can be towed
around with ease and grace. On her
way to the Queens presence the de-
butante carries the train comfortably
under her arm, but once there she
must let go of it.
Before proceeding to the drawing
room the debutante always has herself
photographed, and shows herself to
crowds of friends, admiring or other
wise.
The Queen always wears black. At
the last drawingroom her costume was
as follows: Dress and train of bro
caded gauze, trimmed with lace and
sequin jet; head dress and veil of Honi-
ton lace, surmounted by a diadem of
diamonds; ornaments, diamonds. the

pleased, for he did not like the match;
but Mr.. Kipling himself would say.
That's another story
The Kiplings went to live in an old
fashioned farmhouse, fifteen miles from
Brattleboro, VT, where they had a
most delightful home, in what Mr.. Kip
ling called ''the great pie belt of Amer
ica." 1t is said that at that time Mr..
Kipling did not like America as a
whole, although he was intensely fond
of the Brattleboro people and enjoyed
nothing better than rubbing shoulders
with his neighbors. He was too busy
to be sociable. and seldom went out
to teas, and never was known to at
tend church sociable. Yet the people
liked him; and Mrs. Kipling was the
most popular woman in Vermont.
Then other members of the family be-
gan to arrive, and three little Kiplings
Josephine, Elsie, and John-came
along in quick succession. Meanwhile
Mr.. Kipling got tired of Vermont and
returned to England, taking Mrs. Kip
ling and the family and all the goods
and chattels, leaving behind only
enough in the Vermont house to make
it seem like home should they ever
return.
1t is said that when his children be-
gan to arrive MI. Kipling grew very
stern at home and learned to lay down
the pen in order to properly administer
the slipper. Mrs. KiDling lived a ouiet

During the past moHtH Jue eyes VI
the whole world have been eoncentrat-
ed upon those four small rooms in the
Grenoble Hotel, New York City, where
Rudyard Kipling lay battling with life.
There was little hope, and even those
who passed the door felt dt, for the
faces of those who came and went were
very solemn; and long line of car
riages showed that there were numer-
ous callers, while steady stream OF
messenger boys carried letters and
kilograms. The postman came each
day laden with messages of sympathy,
and the telephone bell rang from morn
ing till night.
Up stairs. calm in the midst of all
the excitement and unterrifed by the
spectre of death, was Mrs. Rudyard
KiD,.ng. the most interested of ALI
those who were taking part in the
great drama of life, and the least dis
turbed outwardly, although it meant
to her more than life itself. Toward
the last of the deepest trouble the mes
sages were all addressed to Mrs. Kip
ling. and. to the burden of suffering and
care, was added that of personally re-
plying to everybody. Day after day
she found it necessary to issue bulle-
tins thanking her friends, and night
and morning, almost to the present,
she has gone down stairs in the hotel
and personally pinned letter Of
thanks to the Doctors bulletin.
The last letter issued was as follows:
"AIrs. Kipling desires to thank her
many friends for their kind messages
OF sympathy and good wishes. She
takes this opportunity to do so collec-
lively. as they are too numerous to an
swer individually" In this brief note
is expressed all the emotion and all the
thanks which woman is capable of
feeling for the gift of world OF sym
pathy.
One of the recent letters was from
the Princess Louise, of Lorne; and
another was from the Empress Freder-
lex. The Lady Mayoress of London
wired Mrs. Kipling, and Lady Ran
dolph Churchill expressed the wish
that the churches of England would
set aside a day Of prayer for her hap
piness.
AT HOMIE.
The woman living in the midst of all
this cannot be but interesting, yet so
little is known Of Mrs. Kipling, that
the curiosity of the public has never
been gratifed by a sketch of her Mr..
Kipling has so bitterly resented public
intrusion of his private life, that he
forbade her to give any interviews,
and she has never up to this time even
Nauthorized a biography Of herself.
Small, dark and pathetic in her sad
ness, Mrs. Kipling is not woman who
would attract attention anywhere ex-
except for her womanliness. She has
a sweet, quiet voice, gentle ways and
is decldedly home woman. There is
no trace of~newness about her, and she
has never smoked cigarette ridden a
wheel, or belonged to a womans club.
Brought up in New England, in the
very heart of Yankeedom, she met
Rudyard Kipling through her brother
Walcott Balestier, who was a literary
man, and a great friend of Mr.. Kip
ling's. They collaborated for several
years, and when, finally, Mr. Kipling
sued for the hand of Miss Carolyn
Balestier, the delight of her brother
was unbounded, for he saw a delightful
future in store for his favorite sister.
