"Anised Dowleth" is the nice title she
bears, which means Companion of the

young Crown Prince. When we think
of old Shah Faith Ali, who was on the
throne of Persia in 1897, with his 1,0oO
wives and 5000 living descendants, we
realize what tremendous change has
been going on in Persia.

In these days when money so often
brings unhappineSs in the home it is a
real treat to read of the doings of Mr..
and Mrs. Samuel Newhouse. Every
body knows that Mr.. Newhouse went 10
| Denver when young fellow, and began
| life by doing anything he could find 10
do. He fell in love with his landlady's
| daughter, SWeet-idCeu SlIl WIZ Nii', u
on the table to help her mother. In
the meantime Mr. Newhouse had picked
up a mining claim, and before she was
| 20 they married and went to live in a
| little cabin on the claim. Even to this
day Mrs. Newhouse tells of her life in
that little cabin where she washed,
ironed and cooked, the stove being so
near the little table where they ate
she could reach over and help herself
and her husband from the hot frying
pan in which the savory dish had been
cooked. At twilight she and her young
husband would sit outside their cabin
when the weather was warm, watching
the clouds, and he would tell her what
he meant to do for her when he grew
rich. 1t was not many years before
he began to accumulate money in large
sums. and then all he had promised his
young wife came true. He built beau
tiful home in Salt Lake City. where
they now live when in this country.
Most of their time is, however, spent in
| London, and Mr.. Newhouse has just
presented his wife with a magnificent
mansion in that city. She is said to
possess the finest string of pearls in the
world, single string of which cost hai
husband s150,000. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Newhouse are very popular in the court
circles of London, not so much on ac>
count of their money, il is said. as Tor
their simplicity of manner, their hon
esty, good sense and kind-heartedness.
Neither are ashamed of the struggles of
their early years, and feel that their
poverty taught them both many things.
Mr. Newhouse. who is Jew. owns val
liable gold mines at Idaho Springs.
