Edward VII. Is cleaning house, so they
say. In rumnlaging among his various
garrets and cellars he is finding many
wonderful things. 1t seems that the late
queen was not a good housekeeper and
let things go just about as the servants
wanted them to go. Some things she
left locked up for $50 years. This was
very careless. They might have spoiled.
Silver and pictures are found in quaint
ties. Beautiful women peep out from
every garnet corner-pictures, of course.
Edward likes this, and is doing much of
this cleaning himself He expects to find
