CEREMONY OF GROWING THE KING

1t is unlikely that Edward will depart
from the custom.
The present coronation oath was fixed
b. statute in the reign of William and
Mary. Prior to that time the oath
seems to have admitted of being tam
pered with to suit the wh1m of the SOW
ereign.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, pri-
mata Of England, administers the oath.
The form may be of interest to read
ers. The Archbishop demands: ''Sir, is
your Majesty willing to take the oath p
and on the King answering, Il am will
ing" the Archbishop puts these ques-
tons, and the King, having a copy Of
the printed form and order Of the coro-
nation service in his hands, answers
each question severally as follows:
"Will you solemnly promise and
swear 10 govern the people Of this Uni
ted Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire
land, and the dominions thereto be-
longing, according to the statutes in
Parliament agreed on, and the respec-
tive laws and customs Of the same"
II solemn promise to do So"
Twill you, to your power, cause law
and Justice, in mercy, to be executed in
all your judgments?"
II will.''
will you, to the utmost of your
power, maintain the laws Of God, the
true profession of the Gospel, and the
Protestant Reformed religion estab-
lished by law? And will you maintain
and preserve inviolably the settlement
Of the United Church of England and
Ireland, and the doctrine, worship, dis
cipline and government thereof, as by
law established within England and
Ireland, and the territories thereunto
belonging? And will you preserve to
the bishops and clergy Of England and
Ireland, and to the churches there conn
mitted to their charge, all such rights

The coronation of King Edward VII.
will not take place until next June, but
active preparations are already being
made for the event. The time is none
too long, says the London Daily Mail,
for the enormous mass Of work to be
done. England has as yet little idea of
the pomp and glory Of the coming cere-
monies. London next June will be the
scene Of such magnificent pageantry
and representation of power and might
as will eclipse the glores of the Jubi-
lee celebrations in 1887 and 1897, and
will provide for all who have the privi-
lege Of seeing it vision Of splendor un-
equaled in recent times.
No doubt it is possible to view with
some measure Of regret the discontin-
uance. Of certain customs, such as the
procession and banquet, invested with
venerable antiquity. But as they have
already been set aside, in 1881 and 1888,
the continuity has been broken, and
there is all the difference in the world
between the survival Of ancient usages
which link past and present and their
revival after'a long interval.
The British nation would never sane
ton any proposal such as that made by
William ~. to omit or curtail the coro-
nation service with its own proper
pomp and circumstances, as it has come
down by the unbroken traditions Of a
thousand years, and the decision come
to on the subject serves to illustrate the
wisdom Of King Edward and his genius
for devising really effective, because
entirely appropriate, state pageants.
II there is to be any revival of dis
used pageantry, the royal cavalcade
through the streets Of the capital, origi-.
nally discontinued on account ofsathe,
then un'sanitary condition of London,
would give the greatest pleasure to the
loyal subjects Of the King, who would
thus have their part in acclaiming his
formal entry on hts great inheritance. ,

Iney speak Their Minds In an EN-.
barrassing Way Occasionally.
"Men are dreadfully brusque some
times" sighed Belinda. 1.-THE other
night my brother and went to the
house of friend to reception. 1t was
a hot night and the house was crowded
and there wasn't anything to do but to
stand around and talk to the people one
could reach, while the people one really
wanted to talk with could only be seen
at a distance and over sea Of inter
vening heads. In addition the cro-
quettes were cold and the ice cream
warm, so when we finally got away
both my brother and I said, Thank
heaven quite reverently, and went to
hotel and had supper.
"The next day %aN Of my friends
whom I met asked Didn't you have a
lovely time st, the, Blanks last. night?'
and 1 invariably replied Delightful
Then we went on our separate ways.
When they asked my brother the same
question he answered with frankness
that appalled, and embarrassed me, NO,
I did not. had the stupidest time of
my life; and, say, they'd better get an
other chef the next time they entertain,
for the supper was awful
Here" said Belinda, II trace a
strong point of difference between men
and women. The average girl has too
much pride to let it be known that she
has gone to an entertainment and has
still failed to be entertained. I saw one
pretty guileless looking creature sit
alone one night atsa dance for nine
straight dances, then had compassion
on her and sent my escort and couple
of other men4to ask her for the remain
ing two-steps and waltzes. She danced
four. times in all, yet the next time she
saw me she said she'd had 4 real de-
lirious times at that ball, a. ~delightful,|
never-to-be-forgotten time, and she
added modestly, that she had been quite
a belle. - A man under the same circu1n-
stances, though they had been Of his
own making, asked If he had enjoyed
himself, would have replied emphatical-
~ and vulgarly, "No, I didn't. I had 4
fierce time
"Why; know Of one lord Of creation
who told some friends that his honey
moon had been very tiresome, and Of
another;who in bidding his host goodjby
after yachting trip remarked that he
had pleasant time, all things consid-
cred, but that all water Journeys were
more or less Of bores. Imagine a wom-
an doing anything so tactless. Why, If
it had been a girl instead OF a man in
the latter case, though she had been
seasick for the, entire two weeks,
though: the salt. water and air had
ruined her prettest gowns taken the
curl out of her hair and the rose from
her complexion, she would have stag
gered off the yacht declaring family
that she'd had the time Of her life, and
that she'd like to go again tomorrow:
That's the feminine idea Of true. polite

Value of the Giraffe Skin.

A good giraffe skin is worth from $40
to $25 in Africa to-day, and much more
in Europe or America. On their hunt
ing trips ten or fifteen years ago it was
a common matter for one hunter to kill
forty or fifty of these graceful animals
in one day. And it is now discovered
hunters were not wanting, for the
giraffe is getting more and more
scarce; soon it is feared it will become
extinct, as many other animals have
done after being excessively pursued.

United States Senatorship.
[Middleburv Register.l

1t is said that some friends of Gen.
Grout are actively engaged in urging his
candidacy for the United States Senate
70 succeed our present very popular SEN
ator w. p. Dillingham; in the election
which comes before the legislature next
fall.
IT will be remembered that the con
test before the last legislature was main
ly between these two gentlemen for the
short term resulting from the death of
Senator Morrill, but we think it was gem
orally understood throughout the state
that the contest actually decided the sue
censorship to Senator Morrill, not only for
the short term but permanently, or ac-
cording to Vermont custom, as long as
the candidate chosen should worthily
represent the state. For Vermont has
never been accustomed to retire on short
terms the senators duly elected by the
legislature, and she is the least likely to
begin such a policy with Senator Dilling-
ham, who, perhaps has as warm place in
the hearts of the people in every part of
the state as any man ever elected to rep
resent them in either house at Wash
ingtOn.
should there be any persistent ATTEMPT
from any reason whatever to turn out
Senator Dillingham;, we believe the cit
liens i'm every town in the state will de-
eide the question in advance by sending
only such men to represent them as they
know will support our junior senator
