New York, Feb. IA dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
The peeresses have secured seats in
the house of lords for the next royal
function, and smart society is strus-
Cling to get in. TO bishops, judges and
diplomats is accorded a limited repre-
sentation, and the peers are excluded
from seats in their own chamber and
the space before the bar is reserved
for perhaps sixty commoners. An an
omalous feature of this state function
is the power exercised by the officials
whose privileges are hereditary. These
are the marquis of Cholmondeey. who.
as hereditary great cha mberlaiu. is re-
sponsibe for all the arrangements at
Westminster, and the duke of Norfolk.

discipline of the military and police,

of the chariot of George III and a sight
of the Flemish horses. The pressure
from the smart set for entrance into
the house of lords is tremendous, bu,
the peeresses are safe, though he
heavens fall. and the commons. which
will vote the civil list for the new
reign. are to be represented only by the
speaker and mace bearer" There are
two curious points in connection With
the ceremonies that will be observed at
Westminster tomorrow. The sword Of
state will be carried w the pos master
general and Lord Salisbury Will walk
in the procession as lord prvy seal
and not as prime minister. which is an
office as vet unrecogniZed wv tn court
etiquette. In the queens rohnS room
the king will for the first time assume
his regal robes of crimson silk velvet
edged with rows of gold lace and pow
dered ermine. The rich lace is from a
design which is worn only by royal
persOnaSes. The robe is lined through
cut With ermine and is SurHlounted
with deep cape of the same fur. The
cape and lining are composed Of hun
dreds Of carefully selected skins adorn-
ed by several thousand spots Of black
fur. The train is several yards in

LIEUT.. MABEL c. HUNT.
Knows How to Keep Her Corps
In Good Health,

Ogden, Utah. Jan. %, 1901 (Spe.
ciaD.-The Pacific Coast Division of the
Salvation Army, whose noble work in
the interests of fallen humanity has
done so much for this western coun.
try, has its headquarters in this city.
One of the brightest and most enthu-
siastic workers is Lieut.. Miss Mabel
Clarice Hunt. Everyone knows how
these devoted people parade the streets
day or night, exposing themselves to
all kinds of weather, that no opportun.
ity may be lost of rescuing some poor
unfortunate from sin and suffering.
In some cases, their recklessness in
thus exposing themselves has been
commented upon as almost suicidal.
Their answer to such criticisms in
variably is their unfailing faith in the
Divine injunction to do right and fear
not" Lieut.. Hunt explains one of the
means she employs to keep her "Sol.
diers" in good health, as follows:
II have found Dodd's Kidney Pills Of
great value in cases of Kidney and
Liver Trouble and Diseases contracted
from severe colds. Several of our lads
and lassies have been repeatedly ex-
posed to cold weather and rain, and
have spoken for hours out of doors,
often with wet feet and chilled to the
marrow. As consequence of this ex-
posture, Pulmonary Trouble, Rheu'
matism and Kidney Disorders often
ensue. In such cases, I always advise
Dodd's Kidney Pills, for have noticed
better results, quicker relief, and more
lasting benefit from the use of Dodd's
Kidney Pills in such cases, than from
all other medicines l know of COM
bined. They cleanse the blood, regu'
late the system, and destroy disease"
medicine which can do what Lieut..
Hunt says so positively Dodd's Kidney
Pills do is surely worth the attention
of all who suffer with any form of Kid
ney Trouble, Rheumatism, or Blood
Disorders.
