The first years Of their married life
were spent by Mr. and Mrs. Curzon in
London. where Mrs. tsurzon entertained
iavishly in her handsome new house.

late years served as the American en-
bassy. and which Ambassador ChOate

Curzon wishes to have it again consti-

born at the attractive country seat.

ed from Lady Henry Somerset. About
this time Mr.. CurSon was appointed
Viceroy Of India. a rapid rise for
so young a man. and a most unusual
one for a commoner. Shortly afterward
he was enobled as Baron Curzon OF
Kedieston in the peerage of ireland.

Lady Curzon. who thus attained the
highest official position which wo-
man can hold, made her debut in India
at a bail at Government House. Bonn

her future home Calcutta. she found
everywhere in the streets the stars ana

ball at Bombay and during the same
month Lady Curzon had her first draw

and his wife gave prominence at their
fetes to the native rulers. and these
mysterious potentates were not slow to
respond by contributing, an element OF
the spectacular. the unique. and the pic
turesque unequaled since the beginning
of British rule.
Lady Curzon still further won the
hearts of the people by her sympathy
and active aid during the terrible days

of the Indian famine. IN gratitude the
native princes showered upon her the
finest treasures Of their famed coIlec-
tions Of jewels. And these same Indian
princes. as is well known. own the rarest
gems on earth. It Is with these wonder
ful stones that Lady Curzon viii out
shine all America. She has necklaces
of sapphires, emeralds, and rubies OF
such size that they appear almost like
imitation. so seemingly incredible IS il
that they should be genuine and Of such
prodigious size. and. finally. she has the
surprisingly dazzling trophies bestowed
upon her when she reigned as Viceretns
at India's first coronation Durbar. Lord
Curzon. it may be noted. has recently ac-
cepteG a reappointment as Governor
General of India lie stipulated. how

dertalxings either by the patient or the
physician when he is equipped to do such
work. and there is very little pain and
practically no danger associated with it.
However. rs there is always an inherent
dread of any operation in surgery. and
particularly with children, we have made
it possible by our simple methods OF
treatment TO remedy many of these dis

either pain or operation, and the results

knows when and how to weep. Unfor-

refuse to be comforter and insist upon
weeping continuously, regardless of their

found and are exceedingly annoying.
They are caused. of course. by some
weakness of the vision.

The marriage of the present Lady
Cmzon took place in Washington in
April, 1895, at old St. John's-known as
the court Church" or Church OF the
Residents" from the fact that every
President from Madison to lincoln
worshiped there-where six years be-

other notable Englishman, the Hon

At the end of a week the young couple
