may cling to his laurels as
- the worlds richest man, but
John Hunter Coutts will go down
to posterity as the worlds rich
est butler.
Coutts, during a long career of
"Butling," twenty years Of which
were served in the service Of
Lord Ribblesdale, amassed a for
tune Of thirteen thousand pounds,
or about $4,000, at present rates
OF exchange. His will, recently

about $4,000, war bonds worth
$4,000, with cash and other
assets totalling about $1,000.
>. Some less fortunate British
buffers are wondering how John
Hunter got that way" They
point out that, to have amassed
such fortune through saving,
Coutts would have had to lay by
an average of about $50 per week
for twenty years. * The convic-
ton turks in the minds of Coutt's
contemporaries that he must have

ligion, we would forthwith be
forced to invent others. If man
could blot out God today, all the
sons of men would start invent
ing another before nightfall. The
people do not want truth. They
have no keen desire for facts or
science or philosophy. These
things are cold and do not cater
to our vanities.
When nations are in the proc
ess Of establishment, we have
always a large percentage ready
and willing to die for the illusion.
The French Revolution H. a case
in point, and the Irish rebellion
Of the hour is another. The Re.
formation was perhaps the most
important instance in modern
times Of conflict between illusion
and disillusion.
The illusion Of war filled every
city in Europe with monuments.
When establishment came, Eu-
rope was mostly graveyard. So
we go on from age to age. Build
ing up and tearing down.
We imagined that we were al
ways building up more than we
tore down and that as the peo-
pie became more reasonable or
logical or philosophical we would
destroy less of life or property
That also was an illusion. We
destroyed more at one time than
ever before. And whether we go
on in that will depend upon the
next great illusion and how it
appeals to people who are easily

move by truth.

MANY NOTED
VISITORS
HERE

JANUARY finds Washington,
even without q conference,
- the Mecca Of q considerable
number OF distinguished strangers.
Stanley Baldwin, NJ. p, chan
cellor Of the British exchequer,
was first Of the caravan. A day
or two later Sir Basil Thomson,
K. B. E., former chief of Scot
land Yard, tarried in the Capital
in the guise Of lecturer. Then
came big, broad-shouldered
bearded Frenchman. Albert
Thomas, minister OF munitions in
the Paris war-cabinet and now
director OF the international labor
office at Geneva.
Before the month is over, we
are expecting the Viscount Burn
ham, proprietor Of the London
Daily Telegram, who Is en- route
across this broad continent to an
imperial British press conference
In mystic India. In politics and
society the presence Of Mr.. Bald
win excites lively interest. He
Is here, Of course, to discuss af-
fairs connected with Britain's
debt-which totals the tidy sum
OF $4,277 200, 900, exclusive of de-
ferred interest Mr.. Baldwin, who
is watchdog Of the British treas
ury in the new Bonar Law cab
met, is one of the scholars In
politics in whom British public
life traditionally abounds. He is
a Harrow boy" and a Cambridge
man." and in the prime of life
he is fifty-five. Before becoming
chancellor of the exchequer, Mr..
Baldwin was financial secretary
of the treasury. .....
Undoubtedly William E. Borah
is the strongest oratorical draw
ing card in Congress. The an
nouncement that the Idaho
Demosthenes is going to thunder
on some stellar occasion never
fails to pack the galleries of the
r Senate. His ill-starred attempt to
force the hand of President Hard
ing in respect of an international
economic conference produced, as
usual, filled benches and long
queues. Senator Borah is one Of

is not fraud, though fraudulent
use has been made Of illusions.
Often it is the substance of
dream, an ideal, a Utopia.
The individuals who can bare
their souls and stand alone with
out props or crutches Of any sort
are rare. A few every thousand
years. The rest have fear, fear
of failure, fear of hunger or cold
or death or friendlessness. When
a heart knows fear, and it is open
for illusions.
Men who create illusions for
the people are popular. Woe
unto the man who deals in dis
illusion, he be prophet, priest or
king, he shall be unfrocked, de-
throned, or put to death. We went
to end war was the Illusion.
Those who refused the illusion
were put in jail The war ended.
We were all disillusioned. But we
