seat of the Walter family, recalls that strong, silent man. the late John Wal ter. Towards the end of his life, dur ing which he had almost everyone worth knowing, MT. Walter said wist fully, T should have liked just one hours private conversation with Queen Victoria
 He had declined honors, but her Majesty would certainly have grati fled this desire if she ever heard of l it. It is said that Bear Wood is to be used as an orphanage. If so, it will have charming surroundings. The new titles chosen by the en- nobled war leaders indica tes the in- l creasing tendency among public men who are rewarded with peerage to adopt style synnilar to that borne while they were earning the honors, l instead of hiding their identities be- 1 hind some fancy territorial names. All 1 the commanders have adopted this 1 plan, it will be noted, none of the fam 1 fly names being in use as titles, an i obstacle which often presents itself. Even Sir Edward Russell has got over the difficulty by assuming the barony of Russell of Liverpool.
 1 There have been some cases in the past few years of newly created peers who have not followed this course re- quiring a parenthetical description. MT Fisher, for instance, is still only halt known as Lord Downham, while few recognize Mir. George Faber in Lord 1 Wittenham, and outside Ulster Lord Armaghdale fails to recall Sir John Lonsdale. Sir James Woedhouse is
 still better known than Lord Ter rington, and only an active career has made Sir Charles Bathurst fam miliar as Lord Bledisloe.
 An audience such as that given by the Pope to Mir. Philip Gibbs is of rare occurrence, owing to the difficulties o1
 the Papal position in. Rome, and il
 was necessary some years ago tc
 evolve curious and complicated sys-
 tenn for sovereigns who visiting Rome
 as guests of the King of Italy, desired to call on the Pope also.
 The system was that-the distinguish
 ed visitor should drive from the Quir.
 inal to the embassy of his country ac. : credited to the king of Italy. Theme, he proceeded to the legation. if hi country had one, accredited to the Vat ican, and thence again. in a differen l carriage to the Vatican.
 King Edward was the first sovereign
 who, having no representative ae credited to the Pope. drove direct iron the embassy to the Vatican. Dickens wouldn't do it. He was a
 prone to drop into blank verse as Si
 las Wegg into rhyme and the iambi
 beat of his proSs is at times almos
 incessant. So that medical humor , ist, Dr. Laurence, who heads his re i port to his inappreciative employers

 a quotation from the great novelist might have set out the greates part 0 it in verse lenths thus:

 Have you noticed how the high hee
 has disappeared from the streets c London these days. Not total dis
 appearance. of course, for if she wi
 not have to walk much, or has a mo l. tor-car at her beck and call, the Lad of London sees no reason to chang l her style.
 Q But if she leaves a suburban hom t in the morning without knowin
 whether she may not have to wal
 home at night, she puts on a sen P sible pair of boots or shoes. And. a 2 any soldier could have told her, thi
 stockings if imitation silk are not fc

 It must be said that during the la: o few days our girls have reaped tn '. advantage of the new ath1eticim. few years ago even the dire necessit Io4 I,n s-
 duced girls to attempt the ascent
 some of the vehicles which offer 1T lift to them on the road. Tn Holbor D yesterday we saw a whole bevy ( II girls performing with much taught,
 gymnastic feats in order to. cIin1
 over the tail board Of a particular d inconvenient vehicle which offere !. them succor on the homeward ire lS and if some of them failed at the fir l. attempt there were no shirkers. F r. one means or another all accomplish
 the feat at last.
 Two lessons of the strike. The tv e lessons of the strike are these, sa, d Lloyd George, the first is that you cal J. not hold up the community, and Il l. second is an equally important one. IT
 community must make it clear to {
 classes for there is a good deal of su
