DUCHESS FOUND AN
ANONYMOUS G|vER

LONDON, Nov. 5.-After being pub
sums OF money have during the past
two weeks found their way to Roman
Catholic charities, both In London and
In the north Of England. These sums
have all come anonymously, but 1t has
now leaked out that they were gifts
from the Duchess OF Norfolk, who by
the death Of her father, Lord Herries.
has inherited not only the ancient
barony Of Herries. which will now be
merged into the many Norfolk titles.
but also the substantial income OF
100000 per annum.
The Herries estates cover about 20.
600 acres In two Scotch and two Eng
fish counties. The Duke OF Norfolk's
London property Is doubly as valu-
able today as IL was ten years ago.
and his heir, the little Earl OF Surrey.
who will also be Lord Herries, will be
the second richest peer in the king
dom. the first OF course, being the
Duke of Westminster.
In honor OF the birth Of son and
heir some magnificent ornaments have
recently been added to the Church at
Arundel, built by the Duke OF Norfolk
some years ago.

R0STAND HAS SPENT
FORTUNE ON VILLA
IN PYRENEES
HAS RECEIVED $4,000 ADVANCES
ON HIS ANIMAL PLAY AND
WON'T FINISH iT-6EEN IDLE
SEVEN YEARS.

PARIS. Nov. Elm an interview M.
Hertz. the partner of CoQuelin In the
management OF the Theater Porte
Saint Martin, makes the gloomy pre-.
diction that Rostand's animal play.
"Chantecler." will not be produced be-
fore year. but adds. But I don't
know. there's no telling anything
where Rostand Is concerned.
Since we first began to treat for
'Chantecler' we have spent In postage
and kilograms $3.50 and rarely got an
answer. The preliminary costs. includ
ing our hopeless visits to Cambo. Ros-
lands place In the Pyrenees. are al
ready over $4,000. and Coquelin left
for there again the other day.
What is Rostand doing? He Is
running himself on gardens, architec-
ture and statues. Why, his reception
room 10 100 feet long; that's one thing.
and there are others. The only time
he ever writes Is to ask for money. We
have already sent him $4,000 because
we want to keep his mind tranquil
while he finishes 'Chantecler. and the
other day he telegraphed for an auto.
mobile. or course he couldn't get on
with their work unless he had 1t, so I
sent the automobile. and he has writ.
ten nothing In seven years, you know.
What did 'Cyrano' and 'Aiglon'
bring in! Why. millions. and he has
spent them all"
Hertz added that he had personally
acquired and sold the foreign rights
to "Chantecler.'
On the other hand. Rostand states
that the play will be produced before
Jan. l. The decorations and costumes
are certainly In hand and parts OF the
manuscript are already released.

Letters to Aunf Laurie From NepEelvs and Nieces

ri HH letters this week are not all
about Dreams which was the
subject announced. In raet. a
great many of the boys and girls
seemed to prefer 70 write about their
vacation trips and very nice letters.
indeed. they wrote. but as that vaca-.
tfon day contest was closed last week
It was Impossible 70 give any Of those
writers a prize.
The subject for this weeks work Is
an easy one Every boy or girl has
some pet or knows about some which
would make q good subject for q letter
TO Aunt Laurie. Many of the writer's
VIII undoubtedly tell about queer pets.
Peehaps some Of them have some wild
animal which they have tanned and
will tell all about that Others may
have pony or dog which Is very
clever and they wlIl write to tie
HeraId Junior and tell about that J
There are many cats, birda, cflickena
ard ducks which do tricks or have
sozne cunning or funny habit and the
readers Of this page will want to hear
all about every one OF these pets.
It Is surely an easy way to earn
dollar to write down what Is most in
teresting about some dear little pet.
Aunt Laurie hopes that there will be
many letters on this subject. and the
writer of the best two letters will each
get dollar.
Remember, there is q dollar prize In
town and another dollar for the best
out Of town writer.

Dear Aunt Laurie:
The best day OF my vacation was
when Wenf to the mountains IN q
large wagon.
Ny uncle. cousin and I went together.
Such fun we had we were on the
road two days and one night. The two
days and one night we're the best times
we had.
Along about Ii o'clock that night we
fell asleep in the back OF the wagon.
MY uncle finally got up and started
the two horses soing. Somewhere
about II o'clock my uncle stopped
them at q pole near a dance hall. At
ter the horses we're staked he went
over and danced until morning.
Sometime before the dance was over
my cousin and / awol<e. finding our-
selves alone. WE started Out to hunt
for him, but instead of going the
right way wa went the opposites
We did not go very far for It was
dark and gloomy. On our way back
we met dog which scared us nearly
to death. We darted for the wagon in
such = rush that we Didn't get time to
see II 1t was dog or not. We lay
down and went to Sleep. Next Inofn-
ing uncle told US his story and we~told
ours. / am 10 years old.

A VISIT TO FARMLAND
First Prize

Tear Aunt Laurie
My incest dream was in Fairyland
The streets were paved with marble
and the houses were made OF jewels
plnstered with gold. The sun shone al
ways and 1t never rained.
The dewdrops are pearls. The foun-
fains were soda waiter. Instead OF
fruit growing on trees. they had ehoco-
late creams.
The bushes had gum on them. The
people were dressed IN satin, jewels
and gold. They were very kind 10 nae
and they asked me to come IN. They
asked me to sit down and eat supper.
They had q fine supper. They had
sunshine cake and lovely Ice cream and
<andy. called Fairy yfiuff.
When had finished they took me to
the yard with some OF the most beali~
flful flowers of The world, and when !
went home in earriage found Il WAS
all dream. RUTH WING. =
