The Poet and the Beauty

One Of the finest houses in southern
England is Penhurst Place, the birth
place Of Sir Philip Sidney. Under tho
trees Of it's park Edmund Waller paid
his addresses to the naughty Lady
Dorothea, whom he celebrated as Sach-
arissa. But the heart Of Lady Dorothea
Sidney-who was the most beautiful
woman Of her time-was untouched by
Walters amatory verses, and she re-
jected the poet In favor Of the Earl Of
Sunderland Many years afterward the
countess met Waller and. reminding
him sentimentally Of the old days at
Penhurst, asked him when he would
again write verses about her. when.

FRAUDS IN OLD BOOKS.

A well known collector acquired
what he took to be book published
by Aldus in the year 1889. He paid
81 600 for it and believed that 1t was
an original Aldus, because the publish
er's press mark, a dolphin coiled round
an anchor, appeared upon 1t. When
the book was shown to an expert 1t
proved to be beyond shadow OF
doubt q modern antique-that 10 to
say, It was simply copy OF the orig
inal work printed by an ingenious book
fahr. So clever was the imitation
that only an expert could tell 1t from
the original and rare book. Scores OF
persons during recent years have
bought facsimiles Of rare works under
the impression that they were getting
the originals. Dickens Sunday IN
der Three Heads" has been faxed
many times and sold az original to
collectors who no doubt treasure them
az rarities. Genuine copies Of this
little book are worth good sum, and
some INSCRIPTIONS dealers. taking ad-
vantage Of the circumstances, have
had 1t reprinted and palm on the
copies on unsuspecting dictionaries
for the genuine nrst edition.
Many men make living by doc

Very Ambitions For Her Husband.
But Of late years this woman Of I'M
usual accomplishments has devoted
her best energies to the advancement
Of her husband. While Mr.. Storer I'M
doubtedly is a man Of large ability
many friends Of the family give credit
to Mrs. Storer for much of his advance
ment. 'She is exceedingly ambitioui
for Bellamy," they used to say. and Il
cannot be denied that the recently
published letters from Mrs. Storer te
the president prove the truth Of the
statement.
For more than twenty years afte,

storer practiced law In Cincinnati, fol.
lowing in the footsteps Of his eminent
father. Then he went to congress fol
two terms. Both he and Mrs. Storel
were intimate friends of President Nc.
Klnley, who appointed the Cincinnati
man minister to Belgium in 1897
Since that time until his removal last
spring Mr.. Storer has been in the dip
lomatic service.
Several years ago Mrs. storer achiev.
ed the brevet title of 1.-THE American
ambassadors" BY that title she wa
referred to at several 81 the European
courts. This was due no doubt to hel
interest in church affairs, and 1t turn

average discernment might perceive

story from Ootacamund shows what
fine manners the animal has. Three
Calcutta visitors to the hill station

overtaken by thunderstorm, accom-
panied by sheets of rain. They spied a
cave in the side of the hill, and into it
they rushed. When the rain stopped
they came out and, to their surprise.
found a cheetah sitting licking the
heavy wet of his waistcoat and his
paws. It was his cave, but rather than
deprive his visitors of their shelter the
polite creature had sat outside in the

and gracefully wagging his tail. the
cheetah babe adieu to his guests and
walked with dignity into his house.

was used to feed about $50 babies on
the British steamer Suveric, which ar
rived here Saturday from the Azores.
The Portuguese are noted for their
large families and out of the 1925 i'm
migrants that arrived by the vessel, a
large number Were children. many of
them small ones. The captain is quoted
as saying that he had a hose strung
along the deck and fitted with $50 nip
pies. Them milk was pumped thru the

was and Is woman Of high artistic
talents. Not only that, but she has
put her talents to such use that she is
entitled to be called an artist. In fact,
her fame is international among those
who know and appreciate beautiful
and original creative work.
1t was Mrs. Storer who founded the
famous lockwood pottery establish
ment at Cincinnati. Her fathers coun-
try place was lockwood; hence the
name. In her charming and brilliant
girlhood she had been skillful deco
rator Of china and porcelain. Her
tastes were artistic from the outset.
and when she met Mr.. Nichols, a
young artist, who also wrote poetry
and who was poor, she fell IN love
with him. 1t is understood that her

An International Triumph.
All the friends Of the Bellamy Sto-
rers seem to agree that the couple Is
most happily mated. Both are well
educated, highly cultivated and ambl-
tious. Mrs. Storer at hrst was ambi-
tious along artistic lines and later for
the political preferment Of her hus-
band. At the Philadelphia centennial
she first became intensely interested
in pottery work. Suggestions received
there caused her to devote much time
to experiments with the pottery clays
of Indiana and Ohio, with the result
that she evolved new and distinc-
lively American branch of that art.
Her lockwood creations went abroad,
where in turn they were ascribed to
China, Germany, France and Spain.
The Europeans scarcely could believe
that America was capable Of produc-
Ing such beautiful and original work.

differences that may happen in the
best regulated families, domestic or
national, upon provocation fancied OF
real. Mr.. Storer has been roundly
criticised In some quarters for his part
In the controversy. Mr.. Roosevelt has
been criticised In other quarters. On
the whole, 1t is apparent that both men
had proper appreciation Of the dis
erection of silence at first. About eight
months elapsed after the removal Of
Ambassador Storer from the Austrian
court by order Of the president before
the publication Of the facts-alleged,
admitted and otherwise consid ered-in
the case.
It was pretty generally believed last
April that the separation from the
diplomatic service Of Mr. Storer was
due to what the president regarded as
a too active interest manifested by
Mrs. storer in the politics Of the Ro-
man Catholic church, as expressed
chiefly In her advocacy Of the eleva-
ton Of Archbishop Ireland to a car
dinalate.
Private Letters Published.
Mr.. and Mrs Storer hold that Mr..
Roosevelt in certain manner COM
missioned them to speak to the pope
In behalf Of the archbishop. Mr.. Roose-
velt holds that he did not SO commits
sion them in any manner. Letters
largely Of a private and confidential
nature have been published by both
sides. These have revealed to the pub
lie how close were the friendly rela-
lions between the Bellamy storers and
the Roosevelts. "My Dear Maria, /"
"My Dear Bellamy,' my Dear Theo-
dore," ''Lsve to Bellamy," and similar
expressions of good old fashioned hui
man friendship, 1t would seem, should
not have been disenveloped and laid
before the curious public eye in mat
ter of state. But they are SO human
that they furnish an interesting bit OF
..human interest" color for the serial
story Of the administration. 1t is sad
that this tender friendship Is thus rude
" interrupted, that an affair between
friends should take such tangent.
Interest In the incident Is enhanced
by the fact that the Storers are highly
interesting people. Another enhancing
