came England's most idoliZed actress.
And it was not Nells physical charms
alone, nor her fearless, piquant wit.
and her merry heart and face, that
won and held admira ton in those days
that to-day, $50 years later, win and
hold our admiration. It was the vir
tues of loyalty and charity that con-
tributed SO large part of her char
acter which constituted SO large part
of the claim she has for remembrance
by the present generation. It was
not simply because she was loved by
the king-there were others, whose
names and deeds are long buried in
oblivion-but that her powerful in
fuence over Charles was usually eN-
ercised on the side of right. To-day. a
worthy monument of her tender-heart-
edness and warmheartedness, stands
the Royal hospital at Chelsea, through
her influence founded by the king for
the benefit of crippled soldiers. And

Duncan, marking her beauty, ease,

thus comes into being in Charles the
Seconds reign.
Nell took the town by storm The
king showed an active interest in the
drama, and of course the nobility fol-

queen of the stage; and rose, or fell,
to that of queen of the kings heart.

How Nature Protects Animals.


In countries where the snowy win
ter season is long, the animals. as a
protection against natural enemies,
put on white coats. The arctic bear
and fox are white throughout the year.
The northern hare is brown in sum-
mer and white in winter. The weasel
is especially curious. 1t retains its
brown coat until the first snow ap-
pears and then whitens in few hours,
becoming the ermine of commerce.
Among the birds who put on white
plumage are the snowy owl. the snow
bunting and the ptarmigan, the last
named retaining few brown feathers
ia it's tail. The coats of most animals
become thicker during the cold sea-
son. The famous cashmere wool Is
made from the short hairs that add to
the winter coverings of mountain
goats
