PRINCE is COMING ON VISIT
Tour OF Young British Son Of Royalty
Recalls Tour of King Edward of

London-Plans are making for the
expected visit of the young prince of
Wales to the United States, a tour
that recalls the travels of the late
King Edward, then prince of Wales,
to America.
Edwards swing around the Yankee
circle was continuous march of tri.
umphs, his democratic ways winning
plaudits and friends in every city in
which he visited.
The coming travels westward OF the
boy prince are exciting great interest
in England for the reason that al
though his father, King George w.,
saw" America, he did not get so in
innate view of the land of the free
as did Edward.
King George was entertained in
America as the prince OF Wales also,
but he had arrived only on its east
ern shores in command OF the Eng
lish fleet participating in Canadian
celebration and did not go into the
interior. In fact, he did not leave
the feet, as he merely took part in
Boston and New York receptions to
members Of the feet and then sailed
away.

command, and the dog marches SOL

Now, Cupid, show them how you

Captain Charles, whereupon Cupid
sits up and tries to look like a drum
mer reading the sporting edition of
an afternoon newspaper.
Then slowly Captain Charles calls
off the names of the stations between
Weehawken and West Point.
"Englewood. West Nyack, Haver-
straw, Iona island, Highland Falls"
Cupid pays no attention.
West Point?" shouts the captain.
Cupid jumps up, emits loud bark,
and runs down the steps into the yard
just as he would do in alighting from
a train.

hind legs, ne can play dead dog" he

Eskimo Custom, Centuries Old. Comes
From lnpossibiIity of Dig
eing Graves.

Port Hope, AlaSka.-The interment
in the Episcopal burying ground here,
under the direction of Bishop P. T.
Rowe, of the skulls and bones of an
estimated number of 1000 Eskimos,
picked up on the surface Of the ground,
where they had lain for years, and
perhaps centuries, has aroused un-
usual interest.
All along the shores of the Arctic
this apparently heartless custom of
leaving the dead prey to wolves and
half wolf dogs has prevailed from time
immemorial.
There is nothing that more i'm

from their dark moss beds on the
frozen hills of the northland. Some of
them have kept their long vigils
through centuries and crumble at the
touch like chalk. Others are startling
ly fresh from the framework of the
living.
The custom of leaving the dead on
the Arctic hilltops to be the food of
savage beasts is natural and unavoid-
able. The digging of a grave in the
far north, even in summer, with the
tools possessed Dy the Eskimos was
next to impossible, for even in July

Cupid is the dogs name and Boston

~that this little Boston terrier can do
more tricks and understand more
words than any other dog, big or lit

When Captain Charles was married
a little more than year ago, friend
in Chicago, his home city, sent him
Cupid. and straightaway Captain
Charles started to educate him as no
other dog was ever educated before.
Cupid's accomplishments are therefore
already many and varied.
Now, lbout your education, do you

Charles will ask.
