State-FinaI obseryances at
Royal Palace of Windsor.

London, Eng.-With all the pomp
and formal observances BETTING the
obsequies Of the ruler of great ma
ton, King Edwards funeral pageant
on May 20 is classed as the most i'm.
posing ceremonial in the history of
Great Britain's capital.
The streets through which the pro-
cession passed were lined with upward
of $4,000 picked troops of the British
army, and among the mourners were
the rulers of every country in Europe,
or their representatives. In this as
sembly ex-President Roosevelt rode as
the special envoy of the United States,
every honor being accorded Americas
distinguished representative.
AT a conservative estimate 100000
persons passed through Westminster
hall to look upon the coffin of the king
lying In state. Barriers were built, by
means of which the people were
ushered through in four lines at the
rate of $4,000 an hour. The body of
the late king was not exposed to view.
The mourners saw only the coffin,
with the official regalia and heaps of
flowers.

Il Made No Difference.

Congressman Ransdale of Louisiana,
recently told story of Alec Trimble,
the valet and factotum of a physi-
clan In New Orleans, who took fan
cy to one of the summer shirts of his
MASTER and finally went and bought
one exactly like it. He showed 1t to
his mistress, who said that he had
done wrong. as. the two shirts might
get mixed in the washing; and Alec
answered:
''H'd make no difference, missus,
cause dey's both alike in size an

Body In Magnificent Tomb.
The body of King Edward lies with
that Of his immediate ancestors in the
magnificent mausoleum at Frogmore.
in the Home park of Windsor castle.
In this structure, erected by Queen
Victoria at cost Of $1.000,000, Prince
Albert Edward, father of the late
king, was laid to rest in 1861. In the
same year Queen Victoria's mother.
the duchess of Kent, was buried in an
elaborate tomb in the grounds near by.
In 1901 Queen Victoria herself was
buried in the mausoleum beside her
husband.
The structure is probably one of the
most elaborate of the kind in exist.

Queer Feathers,

If the Audubon society attempted to
find the birds that are responsible for
some of the unique feathers observed
on the hats this season, they would
seek in vain.
One of these odd creations of the
milliner's work room when subjected
to close observation proved to be a
quill-common or barnyard variety
on which had been glued the long hairs
Of monkey fur.
There is little wonder that these or
nate trinkets command such a high
price when one thinks for a moment
of the infinite patience and time re-

would have been able to enter. The
chapel was draped with violet hang
ings.
Violet was the predominant tone OF
all the funeral drapings and public
decorations. 1t being well known that
King Edward greatly disliked the
gloom given by black draperies.
The service held in Westminster
abbey did not form any part of the
royal funeral. 1t was a memorial
service held especially for those men,
bers of the house of lords and house
of commons, who were unable to go
to Windsor.
Electric standards were fixed around
the place in Westminster hall where
the catafalque stood. The public was
admitted until ten O'Clock at night.
The catafalQue occupied the spot on
which Gladstone's catafalque stood.
The Court at Windsor.
The court removed to Windsor the
day before the funeral. The arch
bishop Of Canterbury, assisted by
Canon Wilberforce, conducted short
service at Westminster hall on the ar
rival Of the body on May II. The
members of both houses of parliament
attended this service.
Neither M. Loubet, M. Delcasse nor
NJ. Clemenceau formed part of the
French mission to attend the funeral
of King Edward. Premier BRAND in
tended to go, but also gave up the
idea, owing to the fact that Emperor
William was there. Under these cir
cumstances the mission was purely
formal. 1t consisted of M. Pichon,
minister of foreign affairs; General
Dalstein, military governor Of Paris;
Admiral Marquis and an attache rep

Roosevelt Among the Monarehs.
Ex-President Roosevelt. who was
named as special envoy of the United
States to attend the funeral of King
Edward, was presented to King George
soon after his arrival in London. Mr..
Roosevelt occupied a place with the
visiting monarchs in the funeral pro-
cession and attended the burial at
Windsor.

Cushion DESIGNS.

The present-day cushion design is
usually conventional and takes on the
upright lines of long stems or trellises
rather than circular pattern. Certain
blossoms lend themselves more sue,
cessfully than others to upright de-
sign.
There, for instance, are the Tudor
rose, the poppy, the Japanese iris and
the tulip, all of which work up well
with long stems and struggling leaves.
For these cushions the fat Japanese
stitch is considered more effective than
padded work, and the floss chosen is
usually coarse stuff that fills in speed
lily, producing the best effect in the
least time.

To Brighten a Carpet.

Potato water is excellent for bright
ening up shabby or faded carpets.
First of all, the carpet should be
we'll beaten and brushed. Then take
half a dozen good-sized potatoes and
scrape them as finely as possible into
a bucket of warm water. Strain, wiring
a cloth out of the potato water, and
with it give the carpet good rub
all over, rinsing the cloth frequently.

For the Cook.

Eggs which are to be broken into
water should not be broken into boil

hot as possible without boiling, and
then let them stand several minutes
