Alfonso XIII. of Spain.

OF King Alfonso XIII. of Spain the
Pail Mall Magazine has this to say:
"The relatively secluded life that the
king has led so far has not made him
shy or timid. He has had enough
glimpses of. the outer world to acquire
q perfect command Of his face, a Pc
culiarly grave department for MS
years, and an easy, cool way of talk
ing, not unmingled with banter and
slight assertion of his intention, as
Spaniards have it, of being every inch
a king This does not prevent him
from being courteous, considerate,
kindly, even warm-hearted, with those
surrounding him, and his humber at
tepdants. He is averse to excessive
courtly demonstrations, such as too
much kissing of hands, and prefers q
manly shake of the hand with his
youthful companions and professors.
He goes out of his way to please them,
and to show them any present recelv'
ed-anything that interests him..

Red as a Cure.

The.interest lately excited in Eng
land in what is known as the red
light treatment" of smallpox, wherein
the patient is confined to a room into
which only red light is admitted, calls
attention to the remarkable way In
which modern science seems to revive
and reform empirical methods Of the
past. Even SO far back as the reign OF
Edward w. smallpox patients were
treated by wrapping them in red GOV.
ers and putting red balls in the bed.
1t was thus that John of GaddesAen
treated prince of Wales. This
method has also been noticed as
a popular custom in Roumania. In
recent years, too, French surgeon
has told of smallpox patients in Ton
quin being isolated in alcoves almost
darkened by red carpet hanSings, and
of wonderful cures ensuing. In Japan
the patients were covered by red blan-
kets and the children given red toys
to play with.

Praise Ambassador Tower.

A London paper prints an "appre-
citation" of Charlemagne Tower, Unit
ed States ambassador to St. Peters
burg, giving the diplomat from Penn
sylvania credit for having been pre-
destined for high diplomatic employ
ment at his birth, otherwise paternity
and baptism would not have combined
to bestow on him name so apt and
striking" The writer says that Mr..
Tower ''is one of that long list OF
Americans who have picked with the
pen the lock of the gate which leads
to the diplomatic service. His first
public service was as minister to Aus
tria, and the transition to this bril-
liant court from the quiet seat of the
historical student and writer was ac-
complished with the proverbial adap
tiyeness of his country-people."
