says the New York Times, zone can
not avoid the fact that the Prince
OF Wales is heir-apparent to a
throne of some Importance in the
world" and the Times goes on to say
1.-THE Duke of York has lived hith-
erto with his parents. The prince has
travelled, perhaps too much. Never
resting, the restless instinct has been
overdeveloped. For years at a time
he has wandered homeless, doing his
bit. He is so utterly popular that, in
public esteem, there are now, no new
worlds for him to conquer. He has
already exhausted all the first thrills
Of kingshir. He has passed beyond
the Illusions"
So, under the circumstances, it is
not to be. wondered that the British
public is asking in whispers. "What
is behind it all?"
It's a fair question. Is this young
prince, who seemed destined to be
the idol Of his countrylnen, merely a
lightwit and an idler? Those who
know him well say he Is not. They
assert that he's the stuff of which
real leaders are made, Why, then,
his shirking of his obvious duty, as
the British public sees that duty :?
London sees no answer to this
question. 1t whispers about possi-
BILE unfortunate affair Of the heart,
but cannot find the lady in the case.
Finally, the speculation gets down
to this: Does His Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales really want to ascend
the throne?

the Duke. of York to Lady Elisabeth
Bowes-Lyon
Apropos of the story printed by the
Paris Aux Ecoutes, here is the Brit
ish version corroborating it:

never will. And what Is more, learn
to be King of England. / never will

And what are they going to do
about it?-that's part of the British
worry. Parliament, Of course, is SUI
preme, but can 1t order the prince to
marry or to stop steeplechasing?
All joking aside, it is probably no
exaggeration to say that the Prince
Of Wales is the constant worry Of
his parents and the disappointment of
the English people"
Anyway, the Prince of Wales has
had good time since 1919. In that
year, fresh from four years of war,
he was sent out to conquer the do
minions of the British empire. And
he did a good job. All through 1919
and 1920 England read with thrills
the Odyssey Of its princely young sm-
bassa1or.
Comes the summer season 1921.
H. r. H. is twenty-seven. 1t finds him
still bachelor. Most prospective
kings are married at twenty-seven,
with heirs. So the English press be-
gins to pick out future queen of Eng
land. One after another royal young
woman is tentatively chosen. But
H.. r. H. says never word in ap-
proval One after another the select
ed brides go into the discard-bars of
religion, nationality, caste or looks,
you know.
Then vox populi, through the press,
begins to suggest bride from the
English nobility and another success
sion of tentative candidates. And so
on up into 1922.
And now the prince has become a
young man about town.

Mythical Proteus

In classical mythology Proteus was
Neptune's herdman, a prophetic old
man who had charge of Amphtrite's
seals. This aged man or the sea could
tell all things, the past, the present and
the future, but would only do so under
compulsion. According to Homer, Pro

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and

Women's complaints often prove to be

If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-

toms of kidney trouble.

home very proud, indeed.
The lawyer contemplated his son

HONOR RESTORED TO FAMILY
Earl of Mar and keIIie Allowed to
Resume Office Which His An.
cestor Had Forfeited.

After lapse of 20S years, the Office
of hereditary keeper of Stirling castle,
the ancient residence of the Stuart
kings, has been restored by King
George to the earl Of Mar and Kellie.
This office was conferred on an. ances-
tor of the present earl in the year
1870 and held by the family, with one
break, until 1715. The then earl took
sides with the Stuarts and being de-
feated at Sheriffmuir, was deprived
of his title.
At the ceremony of restoration the
earl presented his royal warrant of
office to the military commander of
the castle. and received in return the
key on a red velvet cushion. Taking
over the key the earl said that King
George had forgiven the act which
had deprived the Erskine family of
am honor highly priced by it, and
which had now been restored.-Chris-

SXaAxTEo comment:
"a furry of criticism
was aroused today by an exhibition Of
caricatures by Max Beerbohm. One
depicted the Prince of Wales, aged and
bearded, marrying the daughter Of an
English landlady. The time of the
supposed marriage was set in 1872. 1t
Is entitled:
"Long choosing and beginning
late.'
"The basis for the caricature Is the
Prince of Wales apparent aversion to
marriage. There was, however, a
lie and the caricature was with
drawn"
The Weekly AUX Ecoutes of Paris
prints story in which 1t says on
''inside authority" that the Prince Of
Wales has decided to renounce the
throne In favor of the Duke of York.
"Wed? Not even for crown!' is
practically the attitude of the Prince
Of Wales, according to AUX Ecoutes,
which says, among other things:
Queen Mary is insistent that he
marry, but the prince will not listen,
especially since during his voyage to
India his parents married off his Sis
ter, Princess Mary, whom he desired
to see the wife of his friend and COM
rade, Lord Louis Mountbatten, to Lord
Lascelles. The prince did not even
send wedding present to his sister.
During the last season Queen Mary
privately told the Duchess of Con-
naught, Edward will marry this year.
"The duchess thereupon arranged a
grand reception at which the news was
scheduled to be given out. But the
prince stayed at home, sending the
Duke of York, to whom he said:
"Tell them If they want king. 1
am here; but If they must have a
queen, too, then l renounce in your
favor"
Really, you know, one of England's
chief worries, even in these parlous
times Of reconstruction, seems to be
just what to do with His Royal High
ness the Prince of Wales. My word |!
He should have married long ago and
given Great Britain a future queen
and whole fleet of little princes and
princesses. Instead, when George
and Mary talk marriage to him, he
gives them the bird. When the Lon.
don press picks out new bride for
him he goes steeplechasing. When
the whole empire shudders and pro-
tests because his horse falls, he gets
a better mount and wins. When he
should be on hand at some heavy state
function he sends the Duke of York in
his stead. With unmoved serenity he
sees the advent of Princess Mary's
Master Lascelles and the marriage of
