PRINCE GEORGE, SEVEN.

(The following is a digest of an
article entitled King George the
Fifth written by Mr.. Brooks for
the August McClures-Editor.)
BY SIDNEY BROOKS. {
England is looking for the man
behind George V, but she has yet
to find him. 1t has come upon
Englishmen withalmost a shock to
realize how little they know of the
sovereign who has been called to
reign over them.
When it came to dealing with
King George as a man, the Lon
don journals presented to the
world a sort of paragon in wax, a
monster of humdrum respectable
ity, desiccated effigy of the con-
ventional qualities, talents and

and really capable sailor, but a
kindly, unaffected, good-hearted
gentleman.
A constant, at times perhaps, al
most morbid, sense of duty is one
of the qualities King George owes
to, or that was at any rate con-
firmed by, his naval training. He
is one of the most conscientious
men living.
There simply is not an ounce Of
wickedness in him." remarked to
me one who observed the new SOW
ereign at close range.
The king is a thoroughly human
man, with pronounced traits and
plenty of opinions of his own. King
George has no more hesitation
than Mr.. Roosevelt in saying out
precisely what he thinks. He is a
straightforward, downright style
of man, rather naive and imma-
ture, bluff and voluble of speech,
with an element of emotionalism
that, unlike most Englishmen, he
is at no pains to conceal.
England does not know the king.
Does the king know England!

BELONG TO LATER STONE AGE
Interesting Find Of Prehistoric DWELL
Ings Just Made by Or. Otto
Froedin.

The Swedish anthropologist, DR..
Otto Froedin, has discovered at On
berg, neal Alvastra, the remains OF a
number of lake dwellings, dating
from the later Stone Age, and esti-
mated to be about 1000 years old,
being, in fact, the oldest discovered
SO far in northern Europe. The
dwellings were built in the usual
manner on piles, but differ from the
well-known Swiss lake-dwellings in
resting partly on the bank and pro
jecting over the water. The floors
Of the houses, which were of fir and
birch wood, we're well preserved, the
bark still adhering to the birch logs.
In addition to weapons and vessels
Of stone, horn and wood, DR.. Froedin
found carbonized apples and grains
Of corn. The latest finds are stated
to be particularly interesting, as
hitherto only the imprints of grains
had been found in earthenware yes
sells, and no actual grains have been
discovered. Another find was a large
amber bead, described as "the symbol
of divinity" DR.. Froedin also found
the remains of skins with which the
flooring was covered, and large
quantities of nut shells. Various In
dications go to prove that the Stone
Age men who inhabited these dwell.
