ready knew him. We have seen him
in his eager, if frustrated, endeavor to
tempt fortune on the Winnipeg grain
exchange, as also in his very success
full exploit of enduring the bucks of
cowboys broncho. We had seen him
as fisherman, as hunter of big game,
as hale fellow with his old comrades Of
the war. We had heard that his little
speeches were so happy that no one
could say which parts Of them were
extempore and which had been pre-
paredor whether, in fact, they were
not altogether born Of the moment. In
none of his varied activities has he
offered the smallest loophole to the
darts of malice or Of scorn; in all of
them he has exhibited the great gift
Of personality gift Of being
whole heartedly, exuberantly, and
most agreeably himself. For women
he has the grace, the dignity, and the
charm Of the princes of legend and
romance; for men he has the qualities
Of good craftsmanship and good fell
lowship. All that, as the practice of
royalty now goes, is precisely what he
should have. Any demonstration Of a
towering outlook into the future, or of
the statesman's vision of fire, would
have been notably out Of place:
T Yet it was not the least of the
i charms Of the occasion that these
things seemed nowise precluded. Prince
Hal, whose youthful peculiarities 50
delighted Falstaff, became England's
great hero king. Albert Edward be-
came Edward VII, the soundness and
constructive force of whose policy
were not evident until long after his
death. In Edward Albert, beneath the
surface Of boyish charm, a thing was
/. . evident which alone would prove him
trained in the royal profession. Such
precision and correctness Of deport-
ment, not merely in his personal re-
lations, but as representative among
us Of a great and rival empire, could
only have been the result Of lifelong
discipline. From the cradle he has
been prince. We have seen enough
Of him to know that future relations

The Story Of a British Subject


Some years ago-long before The
great war-a British subject, min
ing engineer, happened to be travel
ing through the domain of certain
eastern potentate. The potentate
saw an opportunity to recoup his for
tune, Put the, mining engineer in the
local .ail, and informed his relatives
in England that they might have him
back upon payment of certain sub
stantial number Of shekels.
The potentate lived a long way
from railroad, but the British gov
eminent by return mail, advised him
to release the mining engineer forth
with. At the same time it started an
army Of some 10000 men in the gen
'eral direction Of the potentate. With
no previous acquaintance with British
methods, the eastern ruler assumed
that the message was sort of joke,
and kept the mining engineer in jail
pending receipt of the ransom. He
found out, that it was no joke when
the army arrived, captured his capital,
released the mining engineer, and
hanged the potentate from his own
palace window. To this day it is said
that when a British subject enters that
particular domain the natives are SO
careful Of his safety that he is sup
piled with guard of honor.
