'M0RLEYNOWAPEER'
BRITISH LIBERAL LEADER QUITO
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
~ Health and Too Much Work Forces
Distinguished Lieutenant Of Glad
stone and Friend Of Carnegie
Into Easier Post.

London.-John Morley. the distin-
guished liberal leader, has been ele-
waited to the peerage; he will, how
ever. retain the Office Of secretary for
India in the reorganized British 'parlia-
ment. Morley's reason for accepting
a peerage Is his decliHng health and
a throat affection that makes the
strain OF the work in the house Of
commons too great.
In leaving the house of commons
that body loses one of It's most noted
members. Many accomplishments in
and out OF his. official duties have I'M
doubtedly earned this title for the
English liberal leader, historian, the
ologian. orator, editor and student.
Morley has likewise been called the
Puritan OF politics, a title which his
passion for righteousness and his pub
lice austerity have conspirsd to win
him.
II is difficult to imagine Morley
among the peers. for whose benefit he
invented the phrase: Mind them or
end them" When made secretary Of
state OF India his critics said he would
make weak executive. He proved
otherwise. He made vigorous speech
In the house of commons, in which he
announced his purpose to crush sedi-
ton in India with strong hand. He

In striking contrast, In a secluded
spot. overshadowed by two solitary
pines and surrounded by many fow-
ers, Is the resting place Of John Keats
Fresh interest is awakened in this
grave by the discovery OF q new ro-
nance In the poets life.
In 1919. two years before his death.
Keats fell desperately in love with
Fanny Browne. who drove him to dis
traction with her caprices. After this
unfortunate love ahair he left Eng
land with his faithful friend Severn
and took up his residence In Rome
where he chsnced to meet the woman
who filled his last days with happiness.
II was only quite recently and as the
result OF researches by an Italian stu.
dent that this heretofore ignored cpl.
sode OF Keats life in Rome has been
discovered - - .. a
AS the poet was ascending the steps
OF the Trinita del Mont one day he
was struck by the marvellous beauty
OF a young Italian girl who was going
In the same direction. The attraction
was so strong that without a moments
reflection he offered her his arm,
which she unhesitatingly accepted.
From this chance meeting a friend
ship grew up which soon ripensd into
love. Keats love was so strong that
he succeeded in hiding until the very
last moment the illness which eventu.
ally carried him away, lest his Italian
sweetheart. Maria Landi. should suffer
pain.
After his death she disappeared. and
no trace OF this short but happy. cpl
sode OF Keats life was found until the
discovery OF the following letter from
Keats to Maria Landi. which Is In the
possession OF one OF her great-grand,
nephews living in Rome:

he was likewise. editor. Of the famous
Pail Mall Gazette. leaving his desk
there to go to parliament as the repre-
sentative Of Newcastle. He was Irish
secretary In 1856 and again from 1899
to 1895. In 1896 he was returned to
parliament and since gradually
achieved for himself a reputation In
politics. letters and philosophical
thought. 'Fs
Morley was Gladstones faVorite lieu

most notable literary labors.
Hall Game and Andrew Carnegie are
among the close friends OF the liberal.
The laird of Skibo is accounted one OF
the particular intimates OF Morley, In
personal way, In the tendency OF
their thoughts and aims and otherwise.
Recently Carnegie, we'll knowing his
friends studious inclination, presented
him with a library of 10000 volumes,
one Of the finest collections of books
in existence. In 1904 Carnegie also
influenced the noted Englishman to
come to America. In Pittsburg Morley
was the guest OF Carnegie and there
delivered his only American lecture.
In an Interview in America Morley
said that he, as an English liberal, was
always intensely interested in Amer.
lea and her politics and that England
as a whole was fascinated by Presi-

More than once it has been said that

Time for Needed Rest.

A physician, who makes a study of womens nerves and their quality of endurance, asserts that little intel ligence on their part would help i'm mensely in going through life. The reason, he says, that women get ex- hausted after any endurance test is that they do not know how to balance work and rest. He lays down the following rules, which are far better than medicines: Sleep in proper pro- portions comes first It should be talk
 eE ;n immoderate doses when one has just gone through a tedious time. or expects to face one. The seven-hour rule or custom should be utterly abol. ished. There should not be one rule for every one concerning sleep Each individual should be her own judge of how much is needed If she wants ten hours sleep, if she can get it. and feels refreshed after it, she should make every effort to have it. The day laborer does not need as much sleep as those who work in an office those who work in shop do not need as much brain repair as those who write.

SWEETEST GIRL IN DIXIE "

Why is "The Sweetest Girl in Dixie" such an object of interest to the theatre managers and pat rons? Why was this play a sue cess last season when so many others failed? Why tdo managers ask for return dates and offer the choicest time and most Iib- eral terms? Because when all is said 'the play is the thingr' Heart interest is hackney term but it is the only one that can explain the popularity of this piece.
 Truly it possesses that one touch of nature that makes the whole world kin and with it's per feet blending of humor and pa- thos 1t is fine example of real ism in dramatic art.
 1t has been likened to a sweet violet blooming in a bed of holl- hooks play With that quaint homely pathoS that winds ar ound your heart like the strains of an old love song.
 Public interest has not been aroused by any spectacular or sensational exploits of the au- thor or by advertising any of the accidental features" by which various attractions have been gwen great vogue.
 1t IS encouragpg to note that the success of this play has been made along legitimate lines, ap- ealing to the better side of the theatre going public, which proves beyond doubt the merit of this piece, which was written by an American woman for Am erican playgoers.
 This attraction is announced as the attraction at the Greeson opera house on November 3rd and it will undoubtedly be greet ed by a large and appreciative audience.
