The prince wrote back, only too happy
to comply, DO, my dearest Augusta,
trust me-: l will never abuse the conf
dence you put in me, and more and more
will endeayor to deserve it, See, my soul,
it only depends upon you to speak: thy
Augustus thou wilt find at all times
ready to serve YOU He thinks, he
dreams of nothing but to make thee
happy. I am yours. my soul, ever yours
Ten days drifted along and nothing
was done. The lover became agonized,
and on April 4. 1898, he wrote the follow
ing frantic appeal, which no fair one
thus piteously entreated could resist:
will you allow me to come to you this
evening? 1t is my only hope. o, let me
come, and we will send for Mr.. Gum!
Everything but this Is hateful to me.
More than As hours I have passed with
out the smallest nourishment. O, let me
not live so, death is certainly better than
this; for. by all that is holy. till when
l am married. | will eat nothing: and if

what will become of me? l shall go
mad, most undoubtedly"
To this Lady Augusta replied: MY
treasure, my dearest life and love. how
can / refuse you? And vet dare l trust
to the happiness your letter promises
me? You shall come il you wish 1t, you
shall do as you like; my whole soul re-
ioices in the assurance of your love, and
to your exertions | will trust
The lady gave way. The clergyman
came and, unknown to Lady Dunmore,
they were married Three months later
the mother learned that her son-in-law
was a royal prince When they returned
to England they were remarked in the
ia shionabe Church of st. Georges, Ham
over square. The King was deeply dis
pleased and had the marriage dissolved
in August, 1894. notwithstanding this
harsh step, the prince kept faithful to
his choice, and refused to accept this
decision.
The marriage being dissolved. so far as
the law of the land was concerned. the
prince vehemently protested. and though
his health did not allow him to live much
in England, and though an estrangement
took place later, he always manfully
maintained the troth he had plighted to
the Lady Augusta de Ameland Murray.
In the year 1880 the heroine of the ro-
nance died, and the royal prince, after
a short interval, married an Irish lady
Lady Cecilia Buggin, and after the death
of her royal husband she was created
Duchess of Inverness.

About Ben Jonson

Please set at rest question raised in
our literary club lately. Who was Ben
Jonson? And ought the name TO be
spelled without the 'h?' Some members
contend that he was blood relation and
contemporary of DIR. Samuel johnson,
who wrote the dictionary and other
learned works. We are all boys and we
want to learn. There is no library free
to all in this place. THOMAS P''
Samuel Johnson was born in 1909 Ben
Jonson about 1873. Therefore. you see.
they We're not members of the same fam
lily nor contemporaries. Ben Jonson was
the most distinguished dramatist of his
age, Shakespeare himself having acted
in one of his plays-"Every Man in His
Humori No man of his generation was
personally more popular He was the
pet of society and foremost in the rank
of authors.
He died in 1857 and was buried in West
minister Abbey in Poets corner" Every
body who reads English has heard OF the
epitaph inscribed by order. of Sir John

Concerning Introductions

her hand when introduced to a gentle
man? Does it make any difference if one
is an out of town guest?

l. If the man be her senior by score
or so of years 1t is pretty and deferential
In her to offer her hand. If 1t be a
young man of whom she has heard much
and favorably through common acquain-
tanees she may shake hands while re-
marking that she does not meet him as
a stranger. If he be presented to her cas-

The old fashioned and always graceful
courtesy is coming into favor again,
particularly among very young girls. IT
is pity it ever went out.

Has Trouble With Her Cakes

"Will you please tell me the reason why
my angel food cake and sunshine cake
fall out when invert the pan? The pan
has never had a bit of grease in it. l use
the best patent pan. PERPIEXED.'
Your complaint is unusual. To have a
cake leave the pan without breaking or
sticking is considered desirable by most
bakers. | am not sure that / comprehend
what the trouble is. If the cake be thor
oughly done and leaves the sides and bot
tom of the cold clean it Is a 'consumma-
ton devoutly to be desired" Have your
hand ready to receive the perfect loaf
and stand 1t against something that will
leave space for the passage of air on all
sides. If you prefer to wait until 1t is cold
before taking it from the pan do not in
vert the latter. When the loaf is dead
cold slip 1t easily out upon the ready
hand, having covered this with a clean
cloth.
