KING ON EXHIBITION
EDWARD VII WILL SHOW HIM
SELF TO SUBJECTS.
The Royal Progress Through Streets
of London Today Promises to be
Less Fashionable Than a
Popular Display.

London, Oct. 4-The royal progress
through London tomorrow which has been
arranged at considerable expense with
the object of allaying the disappointment
caused by the abandonment of the sec
ond days procession at the time of King
EDWARDS coronation, promises to be a
less fashionable than popular display.
The route is fairly dotted with Vene-
tian masts and the habitual greyness of
the streets is relieved by flags, festoons
and garlands of paper flowers, while a
few of the more ambitious districts have
erected arches
Among the weather. ones, however,
who usually bear the brunt of making
success Of such occasions, there is de-
cided lack of interest. The fashionable
thoroughfares, Piccadilly and st. James
Street, will not be traversed, so the
wealthy owners of houses which are Gus
tomarily lavishly decorated have not
even taken the trouble to return to town
for the occasion.
Much curiosity has been aroused by
the disappearance of the names of the
Kings daughters from the list of those
participating in the procession. Neither
the Princess of Wales. Fyfe nor Charles
of Denmark are included in the latest Of
the earlier ones. Across the Thames,
however, where the presence of members
of the royal family is practically I'M
known, there doubtless will be a great
turnout of the south-siders who are be-
decking their small houses and shops
with a great wealth of color if little of
art.
Seats over the water are selling for 60
cents and the few stands erected in the
West End lack customers sufficient to fill
them
The procession will start from Bucking-
ham Palace at noon and will consist of
the headquarters staff, naval gun and
a detachment of blue jackets. squadrons
of horse guards, Dragons, hussars and
lancers and eight state landaus with the
royal family and members of the house
hold, the rear being brought up by Lord
Roberts, the sovereign's escort of life
guards. the state carriage containing the
King and Queen, escorted by the Prince
of Wales, Duke % Connaught. Duke of
Argyll. Prince Christian of Schleswig
Holstein and Prince Charles of Denmark
and a score of equerries and aides.
Their Maiesties will lunch at the Guild
Hall and will return to the palace at
o'clock. The route Of the procession will
be lined by about 10000 troops.

Tuesday night at the Montgomery Thea

The noted critic, Swinborne, has de-
clared Shakespeare's Much Ado About
Nothing" to be the best of the comedies
written by the immortal bard. "If it is
proverbially impossible to determine by
selection the greatest work of Shake
speare," says Swinborne. ut is easy
enough to decide on the date and name
of his most perfect comic masterpiece
For absolute power of competition. for
faultless balance. and blameless recti-

no creation OF his hand that will bear
comparison with Much Ado About
Nothing"

Take SCOTS Emulsion for
scrofula. Children often have
sores on the neck that won't
heal up. The sores may
come and go. Parents may
not know what's the matter
nor what to do. Scrofula is
the trouble and SCOTS Emul-
sion is the medicine.
SCOTS Emulsion heals the
sores. But that is not all.
Scrofula leads to consump-
