King Edward Looks Lifelike.
The body of Edward VII as it reposes
in the narrow bed in his favorite room
overlooking the grounds of Bucking-
ham palace. where he died, looks as
peaceful as though asleep. The body
rests on a plain white coverlet, on a
low. single, wooden frame bedstead
which, like the other furnishings of the
room, Is simple almost TO austerlty- The
room itself is less than the average
size, two windows giving view or the
enclosed park. He lies with his arms
above the coverlet and crossed at the
wrists, with color in his face and
half smile on his lips, the expression
of a tired old man who has fallen
asleep.
He had grown very careworn and
weary in the last days. The beard Is
whittier. thes cheeks flabby and beneath
the eyes are dark circles

The terrible strain Of the almost In

The new king-George Wis puzzle

hardly less notable an instance OF the
transformation sometimes effected by
the accession to the throne. George

that it seems beyond the bounds Of
human probability that he can ever be
as popular a sovereign as his father.

Edward VII had an absolute genius
for winning the affection of the nation
He offended the prejudices of some and
disregarded the wishes Of others, but
neither one nor the other bore him any
grudge. His geniality, bon homme and
good heartedness, and above all, the
fact Of his being an intensely human
creature endeared him to all
great and wonderful thing about
the new king IS that he is a man who
has ideas of his own-political ideas of
his own.
Grew Up Bluff Sailor.
Until the king was nearly 80 years of
age he had no expectation that he ever
would be called to the throne, so it was
natural he grew up more of bluff,
breezy sailor. accustomed to speak out
his thought and air his opinion with a
freedom calculated to make a Polonius
Shudder.
Even as the prince of Wales he never
made any secret of his ideas. He was
a keen politician and very fond Of
talking politics. The king had been
