o mother, my love, II you'll give rue your hand
And 90 where / ask you to wander,
[ will lead you away to a beautiful land,
The dreamland that's waiting out yonderi
Well walk in the sweet posy garden out there
Where moonlight and starlight are streaming
And the flowers and the birds are filling the
air
With the fragrance and music Of dreaming.
Therell be no little, tired out boy to undresa
No questions or cares to perplex YOU;
Therell be no little bruises or bumps to On

Nor patching Of stockings to vex you,
For III rock you away on the silver dew
stream
And sing you asleep when you're weary,
And no one shall know of our beautiful dream
But you and your own little dearie-
And when I am tired I'll nestle my head
In the bosom that's soothed me SO often,
And the wide awake stars shall sing In my stead
A song which my dreaming shall soften.

Away through the mist to the beautiful land,

called across the room to him, Just ring

King EdlOard at His Club

When Edward VII. was a young man
he was a great clubman. Desiring to
have some club whose membership should
be select and where he would meet only
those whom he cared to know intimately,
he brought about the founding of the
Marlborough club in Pail Mall in 1869 OF
the original members of this club, three
survive, the king the Duke of Fife and
Lord Farquhar. To this day all new MEM
bers must be personally acceptable to his
majesty. In an article in Cassell's Satur-
day Journal (London) we read the fol-
lowing account of the kings club life:
Even during the strain of London
season, with his many public duties, the
king finds time to run into his favorite
club for an hour or twos rest and quiet
ness No particular ceremony marks eth
er his entry or his exit. The attendant at
the door swings it open as his majesty's
private motor car or brougham draws up
In much the same fashion that he would
for any other member. There is, however,
one interesting exception. BY special de-
sire of the king the attendants at the
Marlborough club, as far as possible. are
either ex-sodiers or sailors. 1t Is impossi-
BILE for them to forget that they have
worn his majesty's uniform and sworn
allegiance to him. Therefore. they come
to the salute as he passes them.
are concerned 1t is we'll understood that
when his majesty enters the building. he
desires, and even expects, to be treated
in purely private capacity. His favorite
seat Is rather near the fireplace In the
smoking room with his back toward the
window. Therefore, anyone occupying
this seat at once vacates 1t, with bow
to the king, and finds a chair somewhere
else The members present, too, all rise
in their seats when the king enters the
room, but this is Formally that is quick
ly over, since with bow and smile
the king with a wave of his hand init
mates his desire that they should all re-
sumo their seats and tacitly ignore his
presence.
Another unwr.tten law of the Marlbor-
ough club is that no member must di-
rectly address the king without first be-
ing spoken to by him. This Is a rule that
