This Is a week when the director and
friends of the Old People's Home distribute
the sacks In which the generous public
puts Its annual Thanksgiving donation to
the home. The donation day, however, is
November IS, and mure 'than a week In
the future. And an Immediate need at the
Institution Is for carpets, two sets of stair
carpets and a bedrom carpet. As this Is
the season of house cleaning, the dlrectore
hope that some good housewife will find It
possible to contribute these.
Th art department of the Nebraska
Federation of Clubs has received for It
hoi of American pottery fifteen haiuMome
pieces of "rookwood." The exhlh't of
water color painings by Mr. Watson, a
valuable part of the art proirrnrn at the
slat meeting, has since been shown In
Peru and Nebraska City, and this week
will be sent to Kearney and Hastings
If you feci jaded, tired and somewhat
skeptical as to whether life is worth livin
Just take an afternoon off and visit the
kindergarten and primary grades tu one
of our well ordered public schools.
An afternoon contact with youth and con
fidence will refresh and buoy one for a
long time.
We choee one Friday session. At the
close of a week's routine one would sup
pose that teachers and pupils would become
lax and listless. But much to our surprise
all were fresh and vigorous.
We arrived at the school before th pre
scribed hour and a husky youngster yelled
after us: "You can't git In you'll have to
wait till the bell rings." "Te you kin,"
said a oolored lass with a coat on year too
large; and rolling back her sleeve with
the air of a duchees, she opened the door
and ushered us into th kindergarten a
bright, fresh room.
Contrary to our memories of stuffy
schoolrooms, this ons was odorless owing
to th perfect system of ventilation the
principal explained later.
"Before w wer mad over," said she
(this building being an old one), my teach
ers just so often during a day would open
windows and oblige the children to exer
cise." She seemed as Interested and enthusiastic
as shs sxpatlated upon her building, her
teachers, that we marveled (remembering
the many ysars this sam llttl woman had
marshaled bar armies) that Tim had
dealt so lightly with ber.
After all. Is tb sohoolma'am's lit so
arduous?
As th "kinder" filed In and placed
themselves upon their little red chairs
fifty of them, white and blaok on sturdy
oolored boy, with shoulders thrown back
and whit teeth gleaming proudly, placed
In teacher's band soms pennies tor th
plctur.
Th plctur Is, when purchased, to adorn
th kindergarten wall.
This sam llttl black hoy kept smiling
at Intervals during the afternoon, and was
eagerly chosen by a dear llttl boy (white)
in th game of puss in the corner.
We were not surprised to learn that the
"smller's" name Is Theodore. To th ac
companiment of muslo they played a gam
of long ago "I spy" and never ones did
a single rude or boisterous sot occur.
Teacher with tact and understanding car
ried tham through the mazes of th play.
And the delight In their face when they
cried "I spy" must surely have repaid ber.
Then, such an exalting thing happened.
In the midst of "I spy" th janitor bell
was heard, which meant fir drill.
Without the least confusion the boys
lined up on on side of the room, th girls
on th other, all ready In a twinkling to
escap any real or Imaginary flames.
Then to reward, the teacher said. "You
may watch th older ones oom down th
fire escape."
As the stampeding overhead Indicated
something unusual, we war not surprised
to see a wild mob tear down th narrow
steps, and would suggest as an observer
that this seemed somewhat perilous, as th
gat would close and fasten every other
one, which In case of fir would prov a
serfous handicap.
One lad, Jumping over the gat to mak
more speed, a klndergartner sung out In
pure eostacy, "I knew ha would Jump."
The boy who Jumped was "Hank." W
went next Into on of th primary grades,
where the patient teacher was carefully
guiding an obtuse boy through "Oh,
mother! how pretty th moon looks to
night," etc
After repeated attempts to guide him to
the proper emphasis of moon Instead of
pretty, Miss Patience sighed and called
upon the next to read, who Insisted upon
bow Instead of mean, and so on until, sur
prised that time had sped so quickly, we
wer warned to take our departure by th
song.
With step more elastic than when w en
tered we departed, almost wishing youth
back again
There are gains for all our losses.
There are balms for all our pains.
But when youth departs It takos
Momethlngr from our hearts,
And it never comes again.

PASSING UP THE SERVANT

After seven years of doing my own house
work, writes a woman In Good Housekeep

give the housekeeping Into the bands of a
succession of Incompetent or careless hired
girls. And always thsre was some defect,
for If Mary could sweep she couldn't cook,
and If Catherine could cook she wouldn't
sweep clean, and so on through the list of
household duties ad Infinitum.
Ours is a country horn and was lacking
In th city conveniences of plumbing, heat

MY T.ADY MARY MAN W. III N5.
LONlOX, Nov. 5 (.-Special to The Hee )
The pathetic circle of kliif; In exile has
received the Portuguese recruits, and doubt
less the young ex-King Manuel will grad
ually accommodate himself to the life of
an linsllsh country gentleman and will
find more real enjoyment than he did
when h was trying to balance hlmcelf on
the tottering Portuguese throne.
The young kins: may or may not have
finally loat the throne of Portugal, but lie
Is still HlKh Suzerain of the Hither and
Further Afric Seaf, also Lord of Guinea
and, If rumor be correct, of safely lodged
guineas an well-and Master of .'a vinailou
and Commerce of lOthlopla, Arabia, Persia
and India, while his Garter Is sufficiently
elastic to be worn for life.
Others la Ealta.
The days when an emperor and emprexs
of France, a queen of Spain and a king of
Hanover were In exile at the same time
are now over. The rulers In exile of today
are oriental despots, the shah of Persia, a
pensioner of Russia and Abdul Hamid, not
really In exile, but bidden behind the walls
of ths Villa AllaUnl In Balonlca. These.
with the widow of that cosmopolitan
scamp, ex-King Milan, and the aged ex
Bmpreaa Eugenie complete the list. And
let the lives of the majority of royal and
princely exiles seem cast In pleasant places.
Endowed, as most of them are, with great
wealth, as long as they keep up to the
rather elastic moral standard permitted to
princes, they enjoy the honors and pleas
ures of royalty without the responsibilities.
tfven when an opportunity occurs of re
turning to their former position they gen
erally refuse. A notable Instance Is the
Grand Duke Michael of Russia, who, com-'
lng to this country owing to royal dis
pleasures, has now settled down to th life
of a great ExigUeh nobleman, not even de
spising the offloe of mayor, and, though
the gates of Russia are open again to him,
sensibly prefers his adopted home.
In olden times Twickenham waa a refuge
for dispossessed royalties, and it was here
that Louis Philippe and th Piino d
Jolnvllle came after th revolution of 148
had driven them from France. Orleans
house Louis Philippe's Twickenham home
Is now "to let" By the park gates there
Is a publlo house known as tha Crown.
Many years ago a former landlord of
this hostelry saluted the ex-king of th
French as he was walking through the
streets of Twickenham.
"What were you when I lived here?"
asked Louts Philippe.
Please, your royal highness," replied
the man, "I kept the Crown."
"Did yout" said the ex-king. "Well, you
were luoky. You did what I was unable
to do."
Wellington's Descent.
Th Auk of Wellington, who, as a Portu
guese duke, marquis and count, stood be
side King Manuel the other day at th
Busaco celebrations, almost on th eve of
th cataclysm In Portugal, Is, It la Inter
esting to recall, himself lineally descended
from a king, namely, Edward I of Eng
land. That famous monarch's daughter
Elisabeth Plantagenet, married Humphrey
de Bohun, lord high constable of England;
and from their younger daughter, Mar
garet, wife of the first earl of Devon, de
scended tn direct line Dudley Colley, a
member of the first restoration parlia
ment, whose grandson, Richard Colloy,
first lord Momlngton, changed his name
from Colley to Wesley, or Wellealey. His
grandson, Arthur, became th first duke
of Wellington; and his grandson, again. Is
th present duke, fifteenth In lineal de
scent from King Edward I.
Related t Nelson.
What Is really Interesting about these
little-known details of the Wellington ped
igree Is that Wellington's great naval con
temporary and fellow-hero, Heratlo Nalson,
was likewise a lineal descendant of the
Lady Elisabeth Plantagent; but through
hef elder daughter, Eleanor, who married
the first earl of Ormonde. The pedigree
comes down through Mary Boleyn (slater
of Queen Anne), wife of Sir William Cary,
and through the Wodehouses to Anne
Wodehouse, who married Robert Suckling,
and waa grandmother of Catherine Buck
ling, Nelson's mother. The great admiral
was the sixteenth In direct descent from
King Edward; and It Is certainly a point
of no little Interest that the greatest
soldier and sailor England has ever pro
duced should have been able to trace their
common ancestry to the greatest king
from a military point of view who ever
wore the English crown.
Peers and Aetor Ladle.
Viscount Torrlngton, who married Miss
Bouray the other day, Is the twentieth
Rrltlih peer to marry an actress since the
besinnlna of the peraire. Eleven of thene
nuirriaKes hne taken place within the
last twenty-fix years, the remaining nine
hating covered a ppr of 114 years from
1T? to 1st?. Either, therefore, the perKe
is leas particular than formerly, or the
fascinations of stag beautiefl ar leas
reslstable.
The fashion was set in the eighteenth
ret.tury by th earl of Peterborough, th
duke of Bolton and the earl of Derby, who
married, respectively, Annstasia Robinson.
Lavlnia Teuton and Elliabeth Farren.
in more recent time an impetus was
xiven to such unions by the late duke of
Cambridge's marriage in 1SI7 to the actress,
Louli Kairbrotber. Then came. In conv
pmatlvoly quick succession, the mar
riages of:
I'aron Gardner and Julie Fortescne.
The marquis of Aileshury and Dolly
Tester.
The earl of Clancartv and Telle Bllton.
The earl or Orkney and Connie Gilchrist.
Karon Haldon and I.avlnla Malchle.
The marquis of Headfort and Rosle
Foote.
The tarl of Kosslyn and Ann Carrlng-
ton.
Karon Ashburton and Frances Donnelly.
r ati Poulett and Sylvia Storey.
Many of these unions were singularly
happy; one of them, that of Lord Francis
Hope, ar.d May Yohe, ended tragically.
Amotig the actresses who married near
relatives of peers were Kate Vaughan,
Mlas Marie Tempest, Miss Mils Jeffreys
and Miss Isabel Jay.
As a rule, stage-marrying pers have
gone to the burlesque or the musical
convert y tli eaters for their wives, while two
footllght peeresses Belle BUton and May
Yohe were closely associated with the
music halls.
Windsor Season Begin Hnrlr
Owing to the fact that there will be no
foreign sojourn tn th autumn of th rear
In the ease of King George, and also no
prolonged residence In Norfolk, th Wind
sor sea-son will begin earlier than It has
done for many years paat. It will take
the place of Sandrtnghatn as the head
quarters of the court In the closing months
of the year. Two consequence of special
Interest to the social world will follow.
One la that their majesties' hospitalities
at the Windsor will cover a longer period,
and embrace a wider circle drawn from
the diplomatic and official ol asses. Th
second consequence Is that th shooting
facilities hitherto furnished on th Wind
sor demesnes will b Inadequate for th
needs of th king and hi guest.
Desla-m for Raral Seal.
It is understood that Mr. Gilbert Boyes,
who bas Just been commissioned to exe
cute th designs for th now great seal of
the United Kingdom, Intends to change
ths centuries-old design of th sovereign
on horseback on th ravers aid. H
will, however, adber to the conventional
obvers aid ,of the sovereign enthroned
with one or two symbolical figures.
Mr. Boyes will first submit a few draw
ings of his designs. When on of these
Is approved he will mak a model tn wax.
From the wax model a plaster cast Is then
made, and from that a steel oast Is mad.
Th steel cast will be about eighteen lnohes
In diameter and the actual seal, of about
six Inches In diameter, Is reproduced from
It and reduced at the same time.

Mra. Hetty Greea Admits This and
Then rrweeeds to Tell
Ahoet It.
Mrs. Hetty Gren, one of th richest
women la America and about th hsrdest
working woman In America, loo Is as
human as the poorejt. A reporter csught
her at her borne in Bellows Falls. Vt., and
found this human side. She said. In part:
"I don't feel any different from anyone
else. I've always worked hard and there
is a living for everyone If he only will
work for It. My father used to say that If
you sat m on a log In tne back ard 1
would Dnd something to do, I'm so sctiv.
"I bav lived In lloboketi for flv years

"I hate to see those lazy women sitting

And they die young, too. I believe in an

"I put th most of my money in mort

from being put out of their home. Some
one was going to foreclose th mortgage
and I bought them up.
"To look at m now you would scaroely
