A FIT OF THE BLUES.

What are these feelings they call eth
blues"-
And whence do they come, and why
A man gets angry and frets and stews
And a woman sits down to cry.
What are the laws of theml What i.
the cause Of them?
What is there to drive them away
How can fellow escape from the
jaws Of them
What can he do or say?
When you We lost your money and lost
your friends,
II you're brave you can work for
more;
You can always remember success de-.
pends
On yourself though your heart be
sore.
If you lose your health, you may dream
that wealth
Will some day buy it again;
II your loves untrue, still the skies
are blue,
And there's hope for you even then.
But it's not the troubles you know
about
That grind and break your heart;
You can fight them off if your courage
is stout,
And prepare for another start,
Its the terrible weight of an unknown
cate
That crushes your soul with gloom
1t & the dreary leer of harmless fear,
And the dread of hidden doom.
And that why you cannot conquer
the blues,
You don't know what they be;
You may laugh and chaff and quaff
ms You choose,
And you deepen your misery.
When yo've not IA care nor grief
to bear,
Nor woe nor foe on earth,
In the midst Of smile-it may nail
you there,
And shrivel your maddest mirthl
You long for things that you never
missed,
And mourn what you never lost,
You weep for the lips that remained
unkissed,
And the lips that you kissed to your
cost
You curse an apoeryphal chance Of
fame
That is vanished beyond recall,
And you fan the flame Of a scorching
shame
That never was yours at ALI
What are these blues that all men
know,
And why do they come, aud whence9
Whatever becomes Of them whore DO
they so,
What makes them so void of sense
I've heard men tell Of a future hell,
And the stews that the foul 6end
brews-
don't know its nature, but it may
we'll
Be an endless "Fit of the bluosl''

Sunset Magazine for November opens
with Thanksgiving fantasy, by James

Mr.. Hopper is rapidly establishing a
name for himself among writers of fc.

as the subtitle suggests a fantasy, will
do something toward furthering that

Unpretentlous House Contains Priceless Art Treasures

LONDON, Feb. 20.-Like most London
houses there is nothing in the exterior
OF IL, Princes Gate, Just off Hyde Park,
to indicate that 1t is not a most ordinary
and stuffy dwelling It is one Of a solid.
block, all exactly alike, and separated
only by the party walls
But appearances are deceptive, for the
house is the London home of Pierpont
Morgan, and contains most Of those Won
derful old masters for which Mr. Morgan
has been paying unknown hundreds of
thousands Of dollars in the last few years,
with the expectation Of taking the pic
lures over to the United States eventually
when he can come to terms with the
customs authorities
Although the house is always ready for
use at moments notice it has been little
occupied. Such dinner parties as the
hnancier has given there were not strict
ly society functions, the guests being less
interested in bridge than in larger forms
OF gambling. But now Mr.. Morgan Is to
: blossom forth, following the example of
the Bradley-Mart IN buying the house
adjoining his own and knocking the two
into one. This move is especially interest
ing, for Mr.. Morgan's next-door neigh
Dor at IA, Princes Gate, was Mrs. Schen-
ley, of Pittsburg, whose death recently re-
suited in the dispersion Of a huge prop
erty among her relatives here and In
America.
Rumor credits Mr.. Morgan with the in
tention of spending more time over here
In the future and going in for society
on larger scale than he has ever dream
ed Of doing before. He was present at
the dinner given by Mr.. Choate to the
king and queen through a personal ex-
preston Of the kings approval, and with
this and other royal recognitions on the
one hand and with his financial connec-
ton with so MANY Of the British aris-
tocracy On the other hand, Mr. Morgan
could fill his house with the social elect
without having to stop the gaps with any
nonentities. It seems to be the under
standing here that he has lately acquired
rather taste for this sort of thing
The younger Morgan, known to his in
Inmates here as Jack Morgan, has also
manifested new interest in social af-
fairs since he took a fine mansion re-

Who steals Gods sunshine from the skies

Behold the cheerful Humorist; what Rriefs

Who knows? And yet he let's the world
know nothing Of his care;
He tunes his song to Joy alone and makes
the weary way

He asks no man to bear with him the
burden Of his care,
He plucks the sob from weary hearts and
sets his laughter there,
The bowstring Of his fancy twangs, his
smiling arrow flies,
To find the heart Of Care, and dead upon
Its way ii lies.
For he is Gods own optimist; his heart ls

And by the weary way Of Life he COM

God bless the cheerful Humorist; and may
he reap some day
The fruits Of all the Happiness he scat

| LONDON, Feb. 20.-As the house in
| which the daughter of a prominent
Baltimore family nearly lost her life,
unusual interest attaches to the his
toric Knepp castle which was destroy
ed by fire few nights ago. 1t Is not
quite two years since Sir Merrik Bur-
rell, one Of England's foremost country
squires, married Miss Wilhelmina Wi
mans, of Baltimore, and brought her to
Knepp castle, the magnificent seat
which now lies in ruins Although his
family had been established there only
comparatively few years, the orig
inal Knepp was one of the six feudal
fortresses of Sussex and the fragments
still surviving show handiwork of the
Norman architects.
knepp castle was veritable house
Of treasure and the damage done by
fire Is estimated at about $500 000 VAL
liable paintings by Holbein, Sir Peter
Lely, Romilly, Vandyke and other ia
nous artists have been destroyed, be-
sides some Of the rarest and most VAL
liable manuscripts in England. The
Burrells are one Of the oldest families
in Sussex, which Is also one Of the
oldest counties in England, and con-
stantly archeologians quote from 'sThe
Burrell manuscripts" Almost all the
personal belongings of Sir Merrik and
Lady Burrell are lost, including Lady
Burrells wonderful furs, which were
valued at $4,000. Her jewelry, which
is of very great worth, was fortunately
saved. Taking refuge in a house on the
estate, Lady Burrell was obliged to

The fire brigades succeeded in saw
ing the servants quarters, which is a
comparatively new portion Of the cas-
tie, but Of the older part of the build
Ing, but little more than ruined walls
now stand and the beauty of Knepp
castle has for ever passed away.
Miss Wilhelmina's marriage contin-
ued delightful romance, for ever since
she was q little girl of fourteen Sir
Merrtk had been In love with her. AS
lieutenant in the First Royal dra-
goons Sir Merrik served in the South
African war, his mother and sister at
home in England daily praying for his
return. But no sooner was he back
from the war than he won the hand of
the girl he had so long been in love
with and his mother and sister had,
perforce, to give UP their home.
Miss Winans and her family were
then almost as well known in England
as In America, since for three genera
ttnos the Winans have been prominent
In London society. Besides his home
at Baltimore, Miss Winan's father, Mr..
Walter Winans, owned Surrender
Park. in Kent, and It was her grand
father, also Mr. Walter Winans. who
was for some years the tenant Of
Downshire, one OF the immense corner
residences in Belgrave square, London,
and which is now let to Mr.. Pirrie, the
great Belfast ship owner. 1t now

has manifested no particular interest in
anything else. OF course. that is what is
usually said of people who want to get
into soc " and cannot But In this case
the statement seems genuine, for the
greater part of British society, with the
exception of some of the very stiffest old
families who hold themselves even a lit
tie better than the royal family in some
ways, would gladly receive the Morgans
with open arms. Another fact that points
to the possibly permanent residence of
Pierpont Morgan in London Is the pros
pect that his great underground railway
schemes, which Yerkes hitherto has man
aged to keep in allegiance, now seem like
ly to go through. am informd that Mr..
Morgan's interest in these schemes has

given a big yearly allowance by her
father, the American bride brought to
her husband no marriage settlements,
a matter which is OF very little moment
in this instance, however, for Miss WI

husbands family. Her uncle, Mr.. Will
liam Winans, was the famous American
shot and millionaire.
Although Knepp castle is a ruin, Sir
Merrik Burrell still possesses West
