EDWARD VI ! AN ACTOR.
Iffado Hin Appearance Once am a "Yeo
man of tbe Guard. "
That King Edward VII. once made
Ms appearance upon the public stage
us a chorus man in comic opeia is hot
generally knovra. Indeed , at the time ,
not more than half a du7xn of his a -
sociutes behind the footlights were
aware that they had royalty In their
ranks , and not n soul in front discover
ed the identity of the burly "beef eat
er" who teae destined to become their
king.
Twenty years ago when he was
Prince of Wales , bis royal highnvss
\vas a frequent visitor behind the
scenes of certain theatres. But lii >
presence was usually kept a profound
secret , except to those few players ,
usually of the gentler sex , who claimed
the distinction of personal acquaint
ance with "the first gentleman of
Europe. "
When Albert Edward proposed to
throw off the galling cloak of roya'ty
and pass a pleasant hour or two in the
realms of the "rogues and vagabonds. '
always , of course , strictly incognito ,
the management "was always informP I
beforehand of his intention. Only th
experienced and initiated were able t f
Judge by infallible signs thnt their
domain was about to be invaded by "a
distinguished personage. "
When It was tbe whim of the prince
to take a surreptitious peep into stage-
liind or to visit some footiight favoriti1
in his or her dressing-room , an air of
mystery crept over the proceedings ,
and Should any member of the com
pany or employe of tbe theater recog
nize tbe royal visitor it was as much
ns his or her place was worth to sig
nify It by a loitering look , a whimpered
word or a second glance.
The actor who tells the secret of
the king's only appearance as a player
gays he la now divulging it for the
first time. In 1892 he was playing at
the Savoy Theater , London , as The
Colonel of the Dragoons. Albert Ed
ward's most Intimate theatrical friend
was George Grossmith , the Buntborne
of the opera at the Savoy. The prince
was anxious to appear on the stage
and look out at the boxesi , Instead of
taking his accustomed view from the
boxes to the stage. He urged Gros-
emith to arrange it for Mm , but Gro -
emrOi was afraid. It was an unbeaid
of adventure for an English prince.
When the "Yeomen of the Guard" went
on at the Savoy the prince renewed
his supplications. It was finally de
cided to send him on as one of tbe
guards at tbe Tower of London' btef
eaters , they were called. At the la > t
nioment Edward decided he must have
Sir Francis Knollys. bis secretary ,
with him. They were fitted out with
cortiimes and went on in the second
act. Few members of the company
knew it , and the audience never dream
ed of it , New York Telegraph ,
SKATING IN NORTHERN EUROPE
.
Joyous Sport Practiced by Tonne People
ple in the Cities.
It is a theory ( like many others ) that
skating came to us from the North ;
as a mutter of fact , the people of tha
tar North skate very little , skate very
badly , andi , In addition , have only be
gun to skate In recent years. Tbe
skate is native to the middler coun-
"tries " Spain , Austria , Franee , Holland ,
England , Germany and is only a lat-
.terday Immigrant into Russia and
Norway. Tbe Scandinavian countries ;
of course , have taken to It with hearty
zeal. Nowadays they skate , like th
rest of us for pleasure. For business
needs they use the ski or snowshoe
milk vendors , farmers , peddlers ekira
thus the eternal snow that lies be
tween town and town , between gaard
and gaard. Only in the great cities ,
in Copenhagen , fn Stockholm , in
Ghristiania , Is skating a sport ; and
even there , so modern is It , tbe young < ?
generation alone knows how to skate.
The fact dazed me a bit when it was
brought home to me a few years
meaning three ago. It turned all my
preconceived , Ideas upside down , anJ
Stood them on their heads. And yet
jt Is not inexplicable. Winter months
in Norway and Sweden are largely indoor -
door months. October Is already mo
rose ; November and December aio
liorribly gloQiny with tbeir short som
ber days and the persistent humid
cold. . Not until Christmas does thg
sun come back. Then all the world
changes blue sky and the white of
the snow and the diamonds that
twinkle on the trees. Then for a little
while the out-of-door sports hold sway.
Above all , skating. Your Swede has
gone at It amorously , Joyously. He h-is
made himself an adept the best
-j-ater in Enropa. The best rn Europe }

HOW TWO BEAUTIFUL WOMEN ESCAPED
DREAD CATARRH BY USE OF PE-RU-NA.
Catarrh Robs Women of Health and Beauty.
Pe = ru = na Makes Women Healthy and Beautiful.
Miss Amanda Johnson , Fairchild , Wis. , writes :
"I wri e to tell you how much Peruna benefited me.
For a number of years I had pain in my head around my
eyes , and I thought ir was btcause my eyes needed treat
ment , so I went to an oculist and had glasses fitted to
my eyes and wore them for some time , but felt no relief
whatever. In fact. I felt worse than bef re , and came to
the conclusion that the trouble was not with my eyes ,
but with my head and that it must be catarrh. As so
many of my friends had used Peruna with benefit for
this trouble , I thought I would try it. I was not sorry
that I did so. for in a short tune I begun to improve , and
in four weeks my eyes were in splendid condition , my
general health was much improved and all the catarrh
of the head was irone. I was glad to get rid of this'
trouble and am gla'l to endorse such a good medicine as
Peruna. " Miss Amanda Johnson.

Miss Flora Hauser. 1032 S. New
Jersey street , Indianapolis , Ind.t
writes :
" / think I must have been
troubled with catarrh ever since I
was very young , aggravated each
time I caught cold. This did not
prove sufficiently serious to be ob
noxious until last winter. Then
my head and nose were so stopped
up that I felt I must do something.
Peruna was recommended to me by
a friend. I used it for four weeks ,
and found to my relief that it cured
me. I have not had a bit of trouble
since. My head is dear , and I can
safely affirm that Peruna cured
me. " Miss Flora Hauser.
