Athletic Association.

Our home team defeated May'sLauding last Saturday, in an eightinning game. Score, 7 to i. Ourboys, remembering two victoriesby May's Landing, started in witha rush,—scoring two runs in firstinning, while the visitors got one.Just to make things sure, we addedtwo more later on, and in eighthscored three. The weather inter-rupted the first inning for severalminutes, and stopped the game atthe eighth with a heavy downpourof rain and a brilliant electricstorm. Some of the spectatorswaited a few hours for it to clearoff, but finally went home in therain ; otherwise they would bethere yet.

The travelling team lost to Som-ers Point by 9 to H, in an eleveninning game. There is enoughhoi^or for two teams in an eleven-inning contest, and it is not excus-ing defeat when impartial observerscharge the Soiners Point umpirewith unfairness or incompetencewhich unfitted him for the position.

To-day we play May'n Landing.igain, instead of Kgg Harbor asannounced. Each team IIHH twovictories.

On Labor Day, two games withPleiiHantvilli', at 10,30 and 3.30.

Next Saturday, Egg Harbor.

A Woman's HeartA Very Charming Short Story, by A. O. Greenwood.

"Is Lady Willowhurst in?""The huge footman stood at the

open door of the great house in Cav-endish Square and frowned down atthe little, shabby woman who 'timid-ly asked the. question.

She was Very alight, very white,very tired looking. Her face had ev-idently been a beautiful one, buttime and sorrow, worry and pain,'had hollowed the cheeks and drawnInnumerable flne lines about thegreat, weary eyes. A child—like hermother, .yet pitiably unlike, for herplump features, her robust little form,her dancing, mischievous eyes, onlymarked more emphatically the olderwoman's .loss—tugged at her hand,smiling shyly at the grim footman.

"Her ladyship's in," said the man,loftily, "but I don't fancy she'll—"

"Tell her, please, that Miss Aller-ton—Miss Eve Allerton—wisKes to seeher."

"Mr, don't!" lisped the little girl."Me don't want to see nobody but—"

"Sli-h!"v,^The motl»«" Tjent down swiftly,hustiiDgrXMe child, .then glanced upnervously.

"Tell her that, please.""Well," observed the'footman, look-

ing at her critically, "if I was you I'dcall again. Her ladyship's lyln' down."

"Give her my message, please, atonce."

The timid eyes were suddenly'charged with command. The manhesitated, then abruptly closed thedoor, as though her ladyship's visit-ors might be thieves.

The footman's manner had chang-ed when he reappeared. Lady Wil-lowhurst had no relatives, he under-stood, and, therefore, the name hadbeen unfamiliar, but he remembered•with a start that she had been a MissAllerton before her marriage to theearl.

"Please step in!" he announced,

Henry had run through his money;you had left the stage. I put asidethe wrong you had done me, thewrong you had caused Henry to dome—I offered to adopt your child.You refused—refused me with effron-tery, with reproach, with rudeness."• "I love my baby so."

Lady Willowhurst laughed, stretch-Ing out her white, plump hand for hersalts-bottle, and sniffing at the pink-colored contents.

"Why have you come?""To—" The mother swayed, clos-

ing her eyes, choking back a lump inher throat. "To ask you to renewyour offer."

Lady Willowhurst sat up. Her eyessuddenly filled with ah eager A light.She had loved her brother; she hadnot loved her husband. Theirs hadbeen a childless marriage. She waslonely—hungry for something onwhich to bestow her heart, her amplemeans, her wearying leisure.

"You have come—to—ask that?" shesaid.

"Yes; to give her up to you. Tosurrender her entirely, and with herall myrights!"

thinking, with innocent eyes and in-nocent mind. I learnt to be thank-ful. It was my most bitter loss, butEve's gain, and 1 was her mother, soI couldn't complain. I never saw himagain. I heard no tiding* of him."

"Henry left you! All these sevenlong years you've been dlone!"

Her cold heart twinged. How falseher accusations had been, how cruelher surmises, how callously swift her

throwing open tne aoor.Shrinkingly the woman entered, one

ami thrown about the child's shoul-ders, as though in defence.

"What name shall I give?" he ask-ed, as he led the way up-stairs.

"Miss Eve Allerton— no other."He opened the door of a rose-pink

houdolr. Curtains, cretonnes, chintzes•were all of the .siime hue as the wallpaper, the lamp shades and tlfp. heavypile carpet.

A woman, pretty In her cold, chasteway, lay on a sofa, shielded by ascreen from the' afternoon light. She<lid not attempt to rise as her visit-ors were shown In, nor did she apeakitill the footman had closed the door.

"So it's you!" she waid, sharply."'Why have you como here — to beg?"

"I have never don^ that," said the•other, simply. \

Lady WlllowhurHt's hard eyes soft-ened us uhe looked at the. child; buta, passionate glint, tho harshness othatred, crept back Into them an sheglanced at the mother.

"When you trapped my brother Into.marriage," Him begun, fiercely, "1 — "

"Why do you give her up now?Nowj.when she's—she must be a com-fort to you You've changed. Why?"

Mrs. Allerton slipped her fingersinto the bosom of her dress, bring-ing out a crumpled plec of paper.

"Read it," she said, softly." 'I'm a wreck—a drunken, disso-

lute, hopeless bit of wreckage,' " LadyWillowhurst read aloud. " 'I'm haunt-ed with the horrors of the past, andI go to the bottle, partly to drownthem, partly because it's in my bloodand drink's captured me—bound mehand and foot.

PROPERTIES OF C.EM3.

Rarity, Beauty and Hardness Neces-sary In Precious Stones.

The average person is probably a^-qualnted with eight or te'n varietiesof precious stones, but as a matter offact there are from eighty to a hun-dred varieties in everyday use andperhaps a hundred others that aremore or less 'often seen.

The property of hardness is of vitalImportance, says Shop Notes Quarter-ly. Tho beauty of a great manyprecious stones Is Impaired by roughand Improper usage. Only those stoneswhich combine great beauty and raritywith a high degree of durability canlay claim to the .title of precious.

A scale has been devised-to indicate,the relative degree of hardness. Onthis scale the diamond Is representedby ten; the sapphire, nine; topaz,eight; quartz, seven, -and- feldspar(moonstone), six. All stones belowthe number of five are regarded astoo soft for articles of jewelry.

In each of these degrees, however,ther,e Is considerable variation. In thediamond alone there are very greatdifferences of hardness, as betweenstones coming from different local-ities, and the same remark applies tosapphires.

There Is as' much difference be-tween the diamond and the sapphirein point of hardness as between thesapphire and the lowest number onthe scale. They all have their rela-t ive densities Indicated by the relationof size or weight.

It is very, essential therefore tohave an approximate idea of the den-sity, and in order to value stones onoshould be able to gauge, to a certainextent, the relative weight. Onestone of two carats weight may hehalf the size of another of equalweight. There are several methodsof determining this particular proper-ty: for Instance, immersion in a heavyliquid of known density or weighingby a' hydrostatic balance.

The color of gem stones, althoughof greatest -Importance commercially,is of little or no value in determiningtheir particular identity. Certainstones show characteristic shades of

Statistics recently issued by thesupervisors of the slaughter , housesat La VIHette, a suburb to the northof Paris, Indicate that the consump-tion of beef has varied but little inrecent years and that on the otherhand greater. quantities of horse meatare consumed.

During J909 fewer cattle werekilled than for many years except laI'JOO, the exposition year, when 264,-586 beeves were slaughtered. Forthe year 1909, the latest completestatistics available, there jwere only204,131) beeves killed at La Villette.However, the total number of ani-mals killed has increased consider-ably. This Is due to the increasednumber of horsea and hogs --that areconsumed in Paris and the citiessupplied by the slaughter houses atLa Villette.

It is said that tho consumption, ofhorse meat has almost trebled in thelast twelve yenrs. Whereas in 1897Jl,534,lt)0 pounds were consumed InliitiO,-- eays Consular and Trade Re-ports. the figures reached 31,203,942pounds. This increased consumptionIs probably due in part to the exist-ing high prices of beef, so that therestaurant and hotel keepers lind ita great saving to serve horse meatunder some fancy name. As there isno law compelling them to indicateon the menu that the horse meat isbeing served the patrons of the res-taurants are none the wised and eatit in the belief that they aro being ,served with beef.

While the consumption of beef hasgradually diminished, veal has grownin popularity in France and In all thecountries of Europe notwithstandinggreatly increased prices. The mod-ern palate seems to demand a meattlm'l is easily and quickly prepared,and above all young iueat Is desidedregardless of the price.

As to the slaughtering of hogs atLa Villette. the figures show that in1:1118 there were 99.050 killed; in 1009.2S2.711, and in 1910, 305.000. Thelatter is the highest number everreached and shows a steady In-crease In the consumption of porlt.Tho meat of young hogs weighing170 pounds at C months of ago is inby t n r tho greatest demand. Thetrade of to-day demands smnll bams,choice cuts for roasts, and moatwhich Is easily converted into sau-sage.

CHRIST AND THE CITY.

I. He Beheld the City.A great multitude of pilgrims are

Journeying with the Lord to the cityThe .Passover Is at hand, and theyare. coming from every town and village up to Jerusalem. But of all thethousands who accompany Him andlook down with Him on the city fromOlivet there is none who sees it asHe does, for these festal pilgrims lookdown Into Jerusalem with .rapturoushearts, and from their lips one mightperhaps hear the words of the oldPsalm: "I was glad when they saidunto tne. Let us go Into the Houseof the Lord. Our feet shall standwithlnt thy gates, O Jerusalem." Butthe sight of the great city brings no

-Joyous rapture to the hear of Jesus.His eyes are not deceived by its highwalls, its stately palaces, its gildedtemple. He looks Into tne heart ofthings as well as of men. He looksfirst and above all Into the templeand to Him that temple Is a gildedden of thieves and the gorgeouspriestly garments are, In His eyes,sheep's clothing beneath which beatthe hearts of wolves. And in thosesplendid, palaces—He knows it—un-belief, Pharlseelsm, Saducceism, therich man at his banquet, whiledeath crouches under his table.He sees a •' nation drunk witha sense' of absolute security,leaders and followers all blind, rac-ing with mad steps to destruction.Many wounds and never a physician—so Christ beholds the city., and thisvision Is the first act of His mis-sion to Jt

And what does It teach us? Thisfirst of all, that before we can hopeto carry on effective mission work inthe city we too must learn to lookupon—the—etty^-out—of the Oavtonr^eyes. We must look at conditions asthey are, not as they seem, nor yetas they are reported to be. And sowe will escape a shallow optimism onthe one hand as well a hopeless pes-

'simism on the other. He alone Is thotrue and effective city missionary of

If our eyes have • truly seen andour hearts have truly felt the nee'dsof the city we can havo but one all-consuming desire, and that Is to bringto it the things that- belong to itspeace. The great mass of them that,dwell there Is eager for pleasure bo-cause It needs and longs for peace.But what do they offer It? Look attho advertisements and announce-ments of the various amusementswhich are to still restless hearts andquiet guilty consciences and healbleeding wounds; are they not likethe husks which the swine did eatwith which the poor prodigal desiredto satisfy his craving hunger?

The things that belong to thy peace.To bring them is the sole object ofthe true city missionary. Yet he isnot to go and tell the poor and sickand forsaken: Depart in peace, be yewarmed and filled. For if he gives:hem not those things which are need-f u l - t o the body; what doth it profit?The help we bring men's bodily needss the golden key with which we de-

sire to open their hearts. So doingwe at least prove to them that wereally have a heart for them. Firstwe will go down and raise the victim

REAL AND FALSE"O Miss Allison, how can you love

your Bible fio? I could not if I tried,and I'm glad I don't love it, anyhow."

"Nollle Payson. how can you saysuch a thing—glad you do not lovoyour Bible? I can very well under-stand how It Is that you feel Indiffer-ently toward the Book. H is only ayear or two since I myself can reallysay I love my Blble^—but to hear yousay In this beautiful Christian familyof Christian girls from all parts ofthe country that you are glad youdo not love the Bible! Please ex-plain, else I shall never get it outof my mind."

, "Only this, Miss Allison, if I lovedmy Bible as you love yours, then Icould not have a good time. I couldnot go to the theatre and dances andhave loads of fun that way."

Nellie tucked her school booksclosely under her arm, laughed light-ly over her shoulder at Miss Allison'sconcern for her and then tripped gaily

-out of the primary room, where shehad stopped to have a, pleasant chatwith Miss Allison, the 'yacher of thatdepartment. fff

Nellie Payson J*as the only daugh-ter of a " - • • - - • -^ —widowed mother.This was tnjfe her finishing year in

"~-Sfhool—g£rt{>then, and then—she look-ed forward to months and seasonsand years of dash, color, music, par-ties, balls, dress, gaiety. Nellie's world

ful meetings at the mission and joy-ous meetings at The Army hall helpedNellie to understand .that the newcountry she felt herself In was-"homeat Inat"—was her home, the realjchoicoof her life.

Nellie hesitated for a while. Therewere others to consider—her mother,her set—but once sure she was in theright, Nellie never wavered. She sether face like flint,' and became whatJesus wanted her to be—a saved girland a winner of souls.

That Voice and the Presence fol-low you tq shine upon your way witha light which will help you to discernthe real from tbe false. Will youopen your eyes to the light and lendyour ear to the Voice?

CHURCH DISCIPLINE.

That the churches of this day aresuffering more from worldly and dis-obedient members than from anythingelse is a truth that needs only to bestated to be generally accepted.

We had just as well face the factalso that there will be no greatblessing of God on the church of to-day, nor will it evangelize the world,until this glaring situation is faith-fu l ly dealt with. And it will not comeabout by a spasm on the part of apreacher or a single church, here andthere, but by a righteous awakeningand a concert ot action on the partof most of the preachers and churcheseverywhere.

If one church executes discipline inat nineteen looked all glorious on, that|a community and other churches takelovely May-day afternoon. From her, up tne persong deait with and -wel-point of view Miss Allison ana herjcome them into thelr foid8j ^ithoutlike belonged to a class of people reformation or change, it will thwartwho sacrifice themselves to a life the very purp0ge of vindicating theof gloom and self-Imposed deprivation . church of God and saving the offend-of all human joys.

A touching Incident occurred recently at Ocean Grove, on OceanPathway, on the .porch steps of afriend of ours. She related the following: A very poor boy who hadlost his left arm, and who made hisliving by selling newspapers, spentsome time playing with her beautifuland very affectionate dog, with whomthe boy in his daily rounds formed asomewhat Intimate acquaintance. Themoment the boy came in sight of thedog the dog would rim to him barking, thereby expressing his delighton seeing him. Day after day theboy gave him an old paper, whichhe would catch in his jaws and runeagerly to his home, and lay thepaper on the porch, floor.

This awakened the curiosity ofour friend, and led to inquiry as totbe boy's home. The answer to thequestion where lie slept and ate was,"I sleep in the boats on the lake andeat at the restaurants." She askedother questions of a personal char-acter, and because of the boy's lovefor the dog and the dogs love for theboy, she was interested in him.

On the particular day mentionedhe tarried so long caressing the dogthat my friend said, "You had bet-ter sell your papers; do you knowyou have spent over an hour playingwith my dog?"

"Yes," said he; "but you will par-don me, madam; "this is my birthday,and the only creature that has ex-pressed any Interest in me of an af-fectionate nature to-day is your beau-tiful dog. You do not know howmuch it- means to me to find some-thing that really loves and speaksto me, and I cannot help petting thedog, for he" seems to be my onlyfriend, and his bark gives me cheeron my birthday."

Our friend was not slow to showher appreciation of such affection.

RIGHTEOUSNESS.

after a time she did forget. Inthe words, but only because she wasconscious of the fact that the Voiceand the Presence made her sort ofgood times look very unreal, somo-times oven shallow, empty, a merebubble to burst In the sunshine.

"How strange," said Nellie to hermother, after two- years or gaiety,"everything I do seems BO unreal, BOmake-believe! Sometimes I wonderif I'm not a wax figure, and all myset more wax figures wound up forthe game of life. Mamma, this sortof thing is not going to fast."

Mrs. Payson thought Nellie 111, or-dered a doctor's care and tonics. Nol-lle wondered If sho \vero going to die,but did not dare frighten her motherwith the suggestion.

But what is right? The Americanpeople are very much mixed on thisquestion. We have so many peoplefrom so many countries with so manydifferent standards and Ideals thatthere seems to be much confusion.

Some console themselves that sincethere are so many conlUctlng opinionsit is exceedingly dlf l lcul t , If not lmpossible; to determine what is right.Many are right glad that It Is dif f i -cult, for they think It makes littledifference what a man believes orwhat he docs; for one man's opinionsare as good as another's, and no onoIH bound by tbe standard of nls nelg'ibor.

A BROKEN GOBLET"Will you give me a glass of

water?" asked little Olive Grey, stop-ping at the door of Mrs. Trim's cot-tage and. peeping In.

She thought Mrs. Trim would bositting there, but she was not to beseen. Instead of her "portly personOlive saw a thin girl who was wash-Ing the dishes. However, she smiled,and took a goblet "and put it on thetable. '

"I've just fetched a fresh pall,Miss," she said, filling the glass;"and It's as cool as ice."

Then she handed the glass toOlive, who said:

"Thank you. Have you come tostay with Mrs. Trim?" she asked af-ter a pause.

"I don't quite Know, Miss," saidthe girl. "I'm here a week on trial.I used to live a& the poorhouso, andI'm just old enough to hire out. Ifthe lady likes me, she'll take me tobring up. I hope she will. It's areal nice home, and such a prettygarden. My name is Sally Twlggs,Miss."

"Well, Sally, I should think Mrs.Trim would bo sure to like you,"said Olive. And with a "good morn-Ing," she ran awa,y.

She was going to a croquet party,and was in a hurry. When she hadgone a little way, however, she metMay Bostwlck, fanning herself withher hat and looking very pink.

"f am so thirsty, Olive,1' she said,"that I don't know what to do. Iran hard all up the road, and mytongue Is like a chip."

"I'll get you some-water," saidOlive. "Mrs. Trim's girl gave mesome. Come." And the two ranback together to the door of the lit-tle cottage.

It was wide open, and no one wasthere; but the cedar pall stood onthe table, and the glass was besideIt. Olive filled the glass, and gaveMay all ^he wanted, and then tookanother glass herself.

"Hurry," said May. "We'll be late."And Olive reached out to put theglass on the table without looking.

LOVE THE SUPREME MOTIVE.2 Cor. 6:14, 15.

The consequences was that she set itonly half way on; and before thogirls had more than stepped outsidethe door down it went, crash, uponthe oil cloth.

"Oh," cried Olive. "What have Idone?"

"Come along, quick," said May,catching her hand, "and no one willever know who did it."

"Now abideth faith, hope, love, thesethree; and the greatest of these islove." (1 Cor. 13:13.) Faith is thevictory that overcome the world' (1.John 5:4); faith is the only founda-tion on which a truly Christian charac-ter can be hullt up: It Is the onlypower by means of which we can wina victory over self; and hope is theladder by which we must climb out ofourselves and into a consciousness ofthe reality of eternal things. Faith isthe gate of salvation; hope Is the roadto. salvation: but love is salvation.Love is the crown of life. Perfectlove is the climax, the completedwork of grace.

And love is the only power bywhich we can accomplish the workthat God has given us to do. It Is theonly key by which we can gain en-trance to the hearts of others In orderto help them. It is the_-only glass bywhich we can see into, the heart ofGod and gain some perception of thegreatness of His love for us. And"love worketh no 111 to his neighbor;love therefore is the fulfilment of thelaw. (Rom. 13:10.)

"God is love, love is heaven: and ifwe would enjoy heaven upon earth wemust do so by the exercise ot ourpower of loving."

But true love is not mere senti-ment, it is not only affection: trueJove is the love that gives Itself awayfreely, delighting In spending andbeing spent In'the service of God andin efforts to advance His Kingdomand give effect to His loving purpose,""flufeby k nu VV W5love, btiuu.ut>6 HSlaid- down His life for us: and weought to lay down our lives for thebrethren." (1 John 3:16.)

Paul gives us a very precise defini-tion of love In the thirteenth chapterof First Corinthians.

"If I have all faith, so as to removemounta ins , and if I bestow nil mygoods to feed the poor, nnd if I givemy body to bo burned, hut have not

mathematical precision into Stannard'seye. Its effect proved magical.Brought up with a sharp turn, the en-gine-driver spun round on his heel,then, clawing frenziedly at tho resist-less air, sprawled sideways to theground with heavy violence.

"That-will teach you to speak civilwhen you're talking of Ella Wisdom,I reckon," remarked the signalman ofthe West Dalesworth box.

! to square accounts with you, Dorring-ton. I made a fool of myself yesterday. Will you be friends, mate? Iwas riled, and said things Ishouldn't. To-day I 'm' willing to sayElla has chosen the best man of ustwo, and I wish you all luck!"

The signalman's face flushed withpleasure as the driver's halting utter-ances fell on his ears. Believing theapology to be a genuine one, he wasonly too willing to accept the olive-branch extended in his direction.

"Good!" cried Stannard. "I don'tbear you no ill will for it. Got somehot coffee here in my can. Have adrop, mate?"

"Against rules to drink anything onduty: still, I reckon I'll break themtor once," laughed Dorrington.

Turning his back.the better to con-ceal the sudden smile of triumph thatwreathed his features, Stannard, bend-ing down, picked up his pannikin,then held out his hand to its unsus-pecting occupant, to take Dorrington'sfingers in a grip of Judas friendship.

"Here's the coffee, mate," said he,

Determined to cry quits with thoman who had knocked him down as areward for speaking lightly of thowoman of his choice, Stannard provedIn the precise frame to mind to acceptan active part In any scheme whichmight Involve Dorrlnglon to tho lattern detriment In the eyes of the com-pany.

Look-ing over the hedge separating its gar-den .from the road, he saw that thegirl had been up betimes, as a clothes-line of snowy linen testified. The sightof Kiln, elbow deep In frothing soap-suds, drove the angry blood to hisbrow In a crimson flood.

"Morning, lass?" Stannard calledhis greeting out over the hedge. "Busyas ever, I see. Bit early for the .kidto be up, ain't i t ? '

The engine driver glanced questlon-Ingly nt the girl's younger sister,seated on the ground at her side.

"Mary Is wakeful these light morn-IngH," replied Klla, shortly. "It's hot-ter to have her up than In bed whensho IH like t lmt . You'll bo late for-your work If you hang round horo,John Slannnrd. Best lm off."

For si moment a deadly '.fear seemedto grip the girl's , heart In Its Icythra;l; then, intuitively guessing Dor-•rington stood in need of her help,Ella darted forward towards thecabin's steps. Gaining them, she racedup their length and, pushing open thedoor, passed into the -Interior of thebox.

A gasp escaped her lips 'as she didsp. Uncertain how best to act, shestarted first at the prostrate bodylying at her feet and then at thelowered levers as from the distancer.-iliie tho shrill, echoing shriek of alocomotive whistle, lu sound servedto attract her attention to the factthat the lowered Ii-ver was painteucreel;.

I /Ike a flash it dawned on her thatthe points were set for the siding.Had she needed any corroboratloh of!he idea, she found it in the loweredn r m of the signal by the box itself,

e 1 y the realization of the perilthrea ten ing the express, she sprang atthe lever.

_Gr ipp ing t ight ly hold of the steel.

was about to swing it forwardits ratchet, when, chancing to'

sheonglance out of the window, she behelda sight which appeared to freeze theblood in her veins.

Beyond the siding points, at thedistance of perhaps, half-a-dozen yards,her eyes fell on the figure of a child.Standing on the permanent way, be-tween the rails which already shud-dured beneath the vibration of theadvancing train's wheels, she stood,bendipg to pluck the scarlet bloom ofa pimpernel growing amid the brokengranite covering the sleepers. Evenas she gazed the child turned itsliead, to wring a cry of horror fromElla's lips as she recognized theFeatures of her sister.

Unknown to her, the child had fol-owed her from the cottage, and, at-:racted by the color of the little bloomgrowing, on the permanent way, hadresolved to cull it whilst waiting for

)lla to leave the box.The fingers holding the lever trem-

bled in their nervous grasp on thepitiless steel. In that dread moment

Wisdom lived a century. She•vas confronted by as ghastly aroblem as bad ever been offered a

ivoman to solve. There were twocourses open for her to follow—oneo sacrifice her sister's life and thus;ave the express and its livingreight, the other to answer the callif affection and save her loved oneit the cost of tbe express and theilestruction of some scores of humanives.

Palsied by horror, the girl stood

,vnrd through the station.The moment had come to her to de-

cide how to net, nnd unflinchingly shecast the die. Pressing her hnndn toher head, she moaned tho anguish ofhor soul In n despairing cry; then,gripping the lover with both hands,thr imt It boldly upwards on Its ratchet.

One of the most coveted positionsabout the court Is that of page olHonor to the King. It usually meanstoat a boy's future In the royal house-hcbld Is assured, while his standing in

jciety of course at once becomes un-iuostioned. There are only four of

pages appointed and they are oniuty two at a time for a fortnight,taking alternate days.\These posts are vacated automatic-

ally when the holders reach the ageof bighte.en, but often should they, forinstance, desire to entor the army they

before reaching this age. Thereis always very considerable competi-tion for any vacancy that occurs, butunless one has a great deal of In-fluence at court it Is next to Impossi-ble to obtain the appointment.

Formerly there were many veryvaluable privileges attached to theposition of a page of honor to thesovereign, but these have now almostall been abolished. ' The^ appointmentof an Ensign of the Guards came asa matter of course, and if thepient did not desire to hold thls"h'self he was allowed to sell it for thebest price he could obtain. The Kingalso saw to it that his pages of honormade very advantageous' marriages,usually pairing them off with thedaughters of peers and others aboutthe court.

These privileges have long sincedisappeared, but the positions are tobe ' coveted as much for the advan-tages they bestow as for the socialstanding they insure. Not only arethe pages fairly handsomely paid buttheir education is. likewise a chargeupon the civil list so long as they holdtheir appointments.

It cannot be said that their dutiesare overexacting, and King George,makes it his practice to see that theirattendance at Court is so arrangedthat their education is interfered with

During an ordinary day the page Inntterdnnce may nolj be called upononce. His duty is to attcnd^n theKing's antechamber for certain hoursIn order to receive the-;royal com.mands as transmitted- to/him by thehlgbpp Court officials artjl to see thatthey nro promptly and properly car-ried out.
