KING FREDERIK AT HOME.

The new King Of Denmark, Frederik
and respect of his people. He is as
democratic q sovereign as even Den
MARI could desire, and Is possessed of
that last blessing of public men-a
wonderful memory for faces. When
Jacob Riis was in Denmark in 1904,
says a writer in the Outlook, he was
invited with his wife to dine at Char
lottenlund with Frederic, then crown
prince, and the crown princess.

Of royalty-says Mr.. Riis, and the rest

American minister and his wife, who
were also invited.
Charlottenlund lies in the forest just
outside Copenhagen, on the beautiful
shore road. We hardly knew we were
halfway there when we wheeled into
the carriage was yanked open by lack
eys who swarmed to help the ladies.
In we went, and almost before we
could draw breath door was thrown
open, our names were announced, and
the crown princess came forward with
ontstretched hand.
1T was very good Of you to come out

Our entrance had been so sudden, due

princes following close upon US, and
In thought and speech we had been so
far away during the ride, that the
Danish greeting left me for the moment

The crown princess looked at me a

THE BACKYARD PROBLEM.

One usually thinks of clothes posts
as necessary evils and accepts their
ugliness as unredeemable. 1t will
surprise many to learn that they may
be made beautiful and retain their
usefulness. have seen a set OF
clothes posts in a back yard entirely
covered with living green-a luxuri-
ant growth Of Virginia creeper.. On
the side of each one was staple Sc
curely anchored in the post and
large ring hung from the staple.
Through the ring the line was passed
on washday. The rest of the week
the posts were strictly ornamental.
Tht best permanent screen for I'M
slightly objects is a group Of ever
greens. A clump of lilacs costs less
and begins to be effective sooner.
Hide the garbage can in a mass of
shrubbery.
Some back yards are too small for
outbutldings Of any kind In larger
ones some sort Of arbor-call it
pergola if you like-is delightful. 1t
makes a dry place for children to
play when the grass is dewy. 1t is
Just the thing for afternoon tea or
sewing and is less public than the
front porch and far more comfortable
than the hot kitchen when Smelling
peas or stemming strawberries. An
arbor covered with vines at the kitch-
en- door will be greatly appreciated
by the help" especially on summer
evenings.

President Roosevelt has lot Of fun.
Action and reaction Is the rule Of ply

has the exhIlaration of perpetual ac-

Thomas Edison must have fun, too.
The processes Of inventive thought must
be exceedingly interesting, especially
when they pan out as well as Mr.. Ed

WHO HAS THE MOST FUN7

A Bunch of Bright Ones that Ought
to Enjoy Life IL Anyone Does.
Who among US has the most fun
nowadays? One can only guess, but
guessing on such a question Is some
fun In itself. We guess Uncle Mark
Twain has fair amount Of daily sport.
He is a very kind man, and finds many
opportunities nowadays to do public
services of a benevolent sort to great
advantage. The papers, as we write,
say he Is going to preside at meeting
for the benefit OF the blind. He does
such things often, and makes very
good speeches on such occasions and on
all occasions when he speaks at all.
To exercise the gift of discourse to
edihcation Is a high pleasure. Mark

estimated expenditure of this army of

Boiler Made Into Copper Coins.

While taking stock of the old ma.
chinery at the Calcutta mint the engi-
neers found that boiler, which must
have been put down In the first half OF
the nineteenth century, was of the
purest copper. Its value was enormous
ly greater than when 1t was manufac.
tured. because the great consumption
of copper In electrical machines has
raised the price of the metal. The
boiler was melted down and converted
into copper coins.
