IN RUssELs. Jan, 1s-Albert the
H First of Belgium Is already
i known as the Peoples king. His
reign. ii is predicted, will stand
out in history as that of humani-
tartan. Leopold II, empire maker and
palace builder. ignored the present
happiness of individuals in his wide
schemes for Belgian ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:
King Albert looks first to individual
happiness. and regards the improves
ment OF the condition of the poor as
his chief duty.
AS .helr-apparent to a despotic ruler
his position was difficult one. 1t
speaks much for his diplomatic skill
that he succeeded in putting many
of his theories into practise without
bringing down on himself the open
wrath OF King Leopold. Much of the
success he has achieved is due to the
aid given to him by. hiS wife. Queen
Elizabeth, who shares his opinions
and joins in his work
King Albert has all the quiet de-
termination OF q shy man. Up to the

now that he is his own master, and
king. II will disappear, Up to the
present IL is only In private conver-
sation that he has allowed himself
full Justice. Those who have been ad-
mltted To his intimacy are impressed
with the qulckncss OF his intelligence.
and the depth of his learning, es-
peciaIly In all subjects which deal
with the economical condition OF the
people.
ONE OF THE BOYS,
AS prince, he passed through the
military school flghting hard to be
treated exactly as the other cadets
were by their superiorss insisting on
being given a nickname and rag
gedF and generally dealt with by his
comrades as one of themselves-an
attitude far less common amongst
continental than English princes,
From the military school he passed
| into the grenadier regiment. in
| which he was advanced rapidly from
| a sub-lieutenancy to colonelcy. At

already general in the Belgian

King Albert had no expectancy of

real condition of the people without
embarrassing them by a show of roy

seeking expeditions he is best pleased
IL those to whom he speaks do not
recognize him. but 1t is difficult for
him to avoid recognition. The portrait
of a popular prince is to be. found
everywhere In his country, and King
Albert had not to wait until his Image
was stamped on coins to have his ap-
pearance known to every one In Bel
gium.
SOME YELLOW STORIES.
The new king is represented as be-
ing surrounded by crowd OF dam
cerous men. who nll him with anti
Christian views, and have made him u
socialist OF the most advanced type
1t is reported in serious newspapers
that the pope. terrified at the access
sion OF the dangerous prince, has IN
structed the nuncio at Brussels TO
contrivc means, in concert with the
cardinal archbishop OF Malincs, OF re-
moving all the kings present advisers
from him and surrounding him with
men selected by the Jcsults. This is
all false, The king when he was
crown prince selected his advisers
from each OF the two historic Bel
gian parties. Catholic and Liberal
Rome has no thought of interfering liz
his sele1 lon OF his officials. and the
king has no intention OF allowing In
terfcrcnce from any quarter. He has
made sweeping changes in the court.

The new queen OF Belgium, as might
be expected from the daughter OF the
only royal doctor. is especially inter-

a hospitnl for consumptives, and scT-
cral dispensaries. and every year the
most delicate children in the poor

Notwithstanding the excitement OF
the general election, society Is greatly
Interested In the coming of the new
American dcbutantcs. They wilb BE-

At a few swell Clubs in London a
faithful record is kcpt OF the debu-
tantes, especially American. who arc
to be presented each season. a great
deal Is being said of the charms Of
Miss Lisa Stillman, a daughter of Mrs.
Joseph Stillman of New York. The
Stillman family Is we'll known here,

very successfully. She received an in

palace. and 1t was announced in the
napers that she was to cover herself
completely with jewels to the ynlue of
a million dollars. What did she do but
turn up without a single ornament OF

~ ONDON, Jan, 1S.-However gen
erous the British and American
society hostess may be, and the
majority are lavish in this re-
spect. they do draw the line at being
1eeced by their guests. 1t is women
who are nearly always the offenders
in this respect. Extraordinary stories
of the lengths to which women have
gone at some recent house parties are
the talk of the tea tables.
At most of the really swagger big
houses in the country II Is the custom
to stamp the guests letters and to
launder their linen. AT Houghton. the
newly acquired residence of Cora Lady
STAFFORD. these two customs naturally
prevail-indced. it Is the wish of Lady
Strafford that no guest shalt have 10
use a purse while under her roof, But
even to such generosity as hers there Is
a limit. 1t was the housekeeper who
called her attention to the fact that one
lady who had Just been a guest sent,
among quantities of other things, over
a dozen elaborate petticoats and %
pairs of silk stockings to the house
laundry. Altogether her bill would
have run into between s25 and $50 had
she sent her things out in the usual
way This trick OF carrying their
washing about to have II done at
friends houses has assumed such pro-
portions that numbers of people no
longer allow their guests to send their
things to the house lauEdry.
Guests can always pop their letters
unstamped into the red box kept for
the purpose In the halls of our English
country houses. and it is the buffers
duty to stamp them before he hands
them to the postman or sends them to
the local office. 1t was Lord Savile's
butler who found that one lady had
posted $50 Christmas cards in sealed
envelopes without single stamp. His
petty. cash having been exhausted he
had to apply to his master for more and
he incidentally mentioned that he
wanted it for stamps for letters which
