London, March S.-There was a

doors of hell" DR.. Parker referred to
the kings recent brewing of beer
while visiting Lord Burton. pray
for me-" said the divine, shat may
speak delicately, Loyalty. If the king
brews beer, what can be wrong in the
subject of drinking it? What the
king does is likely to be initiated by
others. His majesty is more than
a man and must regard all questions
from a kingly point of view. If the
king goes to a Sunday concert, as he
did recently, he deals deadly blow
to the Englishman's Sunday The
king cannot attend non-conformist
place of worship, but he can go to q
Sunday concert"
