THE CITIZHrV, WEDNESDAY, FEB. 22, 1011.
Canada Is Glad
Connaught
ANADA is rejoicing
over the appoint
ment of the Duko
of C o n n a ught,
uncle of King
George, as gov
ernor general of
the Doral nlon,
and bo Is Eng
land, not because
of the loss of the
d u k c, who Is
very populnr, but
because It Is fig
ured the tics be
tween the moth
er country and
her big child will be materially
strengthened.
The duke Is to succeed Earl Grey In
September for a two years' term. The
eh an kg from n five year tenure Is re
tarded by the Ixmdon newspapers as
meaning that the step Is of an experi
mental nature, and they say that It is
a momentous experiment.
Huiiy In England regard the reci
procity agreement between the United
DUKE OP CONNATjanT.
States and Canada as a step toward
the dissolution of Great Britain's im
perial federation, but think that if
any one could renrouse the old British
plrit in the Cnnadlnns the Duko of
Connaught is the man.
The London Morning Post thinks the
appointment marks the final stage of
the evolution of the Dominion from a
colony into a nation of equal status
with the United Kingdom and con
stitutionally connected with it by no
other tie than allegiance to a common
sovereign and adds:
"It will doubtless be argued that
there is now no reason in theory, ex
cluding tradition and convenience, why
the king should not reside in Canada

and delegate his duties in tho United
Kingdom to a distinguished member of
bis house. Some such development
might, if the empire holds together, oc
cur fifty years hence, when tho Do
minion will probably outclass Great
Britain in population and power, with
out any constitutional innovation on
the principal established by the Duke
of Connnught's appointment."
Although the Duko of Connaught is
considered tho most popular man in
all England, yet tho secret of it has
never been definitely defined. Ho Is
blessed with personal mngnetlsm and
n charming manner and has a distin
guished nppearance. Though more
than sixty, ho is credited with being
more royal In appearance than his
brother, Edward VII., with his snow
whlto hair and mustache and excep
tional carriage. Ho is very democratic,
and his children are like him. No ono
can point to any particular act of brll
Mancy or merit on the duke's part, but
he Is pointed out ns a typical English
gentleman, a real sportsman, a good
ufaot and a hard rider.
Duke of
ucceeds
rey
His recent trip to South Africa,
hero bo was the chief functionary at
the opening of the new parliament,
added to his popularity, and his visit
proved a series of ovations.
The Duke of Connaught Is said to
have been Queen Victoria's favorite
son, as Princess Henry of Battenberg
was her favorite daughter. During
the life of Edward VII. he was picked
for the Canadian governor generalship,
but upon the king's death it was sup-

posed he would not go, as his nephew-
would need him to assist in conducting
affairs of state, the Prince of Wales
being too young to represent his
father.
The duke's family share his popular
ity. The Duchess of Connaught Is one
of the most noted hostesses in London,
is handsome, a tasteful dresser and
modern in her Ideas. The residents
of Ottawa expect the Canadian capital
to take on n new social nspect during
the Connaught regime.
In addition to her social grncious
ness the Duchess of Connaught is a
constant companion of her husband
and shares his delight in golfing, shoot
ing and horses. Unlike many mothers
of royal families, she permitted her
daughters great liberties in the mat
ter of friendships, and they are well
known to American residents of the
British capital.
The duchess has a strong partiality
for Americans, and this is shared by
DUCHESS OP CONNAUaUT.
her sou, Princo Arthur of Connaught,
aged twenty-six and called the most .
eligible young royalty in Britain. His
name has been coupled with those of
several American girls in London, but
.,v, n,w o f t n,
such n marriage is out of the question.
Like his father, he is a big game hunt
er, and he recently headed an expe
dition into the wilds of central Africa,
Then thero is tho Princess Patricia,
the pet of her parents nnd all England
as well. Sho Is twenty-four, pretty,
with plenty of spirit and humor, adores
golf, rides well, is an excellent nrtlst,
caricaturist and amateur photographer
and dances well. She Is the particular
chum of her father and for that rea
son Is likely to nccompany her parents
to Canada.
It was no secret that King Edward
loved her above all his nieces and for
that reason did not resent her refusal
to marry King Alfonso of Spnln. no
did, however, find it difficult to remain
obdurate to her pleadings nncnt her
love affair with u young marquis.
When she barely left school tho Prin
cess Patricia and this marquis met

and fell In love at once. As the young
man had no royal blood tho alliance
was scouted, whereupon tho Independ
ent princess announced It would bo
tho marquis or no husband at all. All
that such n union lacks Is tho royal
permission, for tho Duko ond Duchess
of Connaught are not averse to It.
Tho last member of tho Connaught
family, who will not figure In tho fam
ily's Canadian experience, Is Princess
Margaret, tho eldest daughter, who Is
now the crown princess of Sweden.

Mothers
The School Diet.
If early rising Is Insisted upon a
child should never be set any task be
fore breakfast, especially in winter,
nnd If it is not expedient to servo a
full breakfast at 7 the child should bo
given a bowl of hot milk nnd bread or
n cup of cocoa with a roll or other
light food. Breakfast may bo served
later, after the first exercises of the
morning, and should be a substantial
meal with animal food In the form of
fish, eggs or cold meat of some sort.
I There should also bo porridge of
wheaten grits or hominy with milk or .
cream and abundant sugar: also bread '
and butter, with some sweets in the j
form of Jam, marmalade or stewed ;
fruit.
Dinner, which should always bo serv
ed near the middle of the day, should
comprise meat, potatoes and one or
two green vegetables and some form
of sweet pudding. Supper, it Is gen
erally admitted, should comprise only
easily digested articles of food, and
such substances as pastry, cheese and
meats are better omitted.
It should consist of cither a porridge
with milk or cream or a light farina
ceous pudding of rice, tapioca, sago
nnd the like, with bread and butter
and some simple form of preserve.
Stewed apples or prunes, light plain
cake or a bowl of broth, with bread or
crackers, may bo substituted for por
ridge or pudding.
Children need fat, but they do not
digest meat fat well, as a rule, and nre
very apt to dislike it. They will often
take suet pudding, however, when hot
mutton fat wholly disagrees with them.
Milk should bo freely supplied not
only in the form of puddings and por
ridges, but as an occasional beverage,
and children should bo made to under
stand that when hungry they can ob
tain a glass of milk and a biscuit or a
bowl of bread and milk.
Fresh fish, eggs nnd bacon nre all
wholesome and serviceable food for
children, and meat should bo given at
least once a day, nnd to rapidly grow
ing children it mny be given twice
daily. '
Children's Guessing Party.
A mother who wished to entertain
school children gave a guessing party
that was rather out of the usual run.
Boys and girls wero invited for an
evening with celebrities and their
haunts. Nothing more explicit was
said, so the young people were eager
to know what was in store.
After being received by the hostess
the pnrty was ushered into a library,
across one end of which was a huge
white sheet. In a few minutes the
room was darkened and a figure ap
peared drpsscd to represent Mrs. Jar
ley of the waxworks and in a witty
speech announced the appearance of
the celebrities.
She first distributed to each guest a
card with pencil attached. These were
lined nnd numbered to correspond with
the celebrities to bo shown.
In a few minutes a picture of Blue
beard was thrown on the sheet nnd
thirty seconds given to guessing who
ho was.
The celebrities varied from heroes of
fiction to monarchs, pugilists and foot-
fial 1 of o ia rm4 nrl n nfpnceaa nnata mil-
, ",
! slcians, to well known places nnd
buildings.
Tho pictures were made as different
as possible, and when those that might
be unfamiliar were given the show
man elucidated It in a clever little
speech.
At the end of the display tho cards
were numbered and passed in to a
committee on awards. Each boy and
girl having most correct guesses re
ceived a prize. There were also sec
ond nnd third prizes.
Such an entertainment is not bard to
arrange if one can get the use of a lan
tern nnd some one to run It. It Is es
sential to display the pictures rapidly.
The slides can be rented, or if you
have a collection of postals they can
be made into slides at small cost.
A Good Idea.
A mother who has several active
children that are frequently coming
In with cut fingers or bleeding noses
says that In two places In her house
hold she keeps squares of cheesecloth
about handkerchief size for such emer
gencies, as blood stains nre hard to got
out of handkerchiefs. Sometimes a
week or more elapses before tho ruin
Is brought to light, because small boys
nre indifferent to the welfare of linen
and also because they occasionally
find it desirable to htdo all evidence
of affairs in which they have been ug
gressors. After bo many days even
the useful chalk treatment has to be
repeated several times before the ugly
stains aro removed, making unneces
sary work for some one. So when a
"roughhouso" seems to be in prospect
and always at playtime during tho
football season her young hopefuls
hare their pockets filled with the
cheesecloth squares, and only ono good
handkerchief Is allowed "for show."
So impressed aro other mothers with
the scheme that nil the small boys of
the neighborhood now go forth to play
with this command ringing in their
cars: "If your nose bleeds take the
squares in your right band pocket, ro-memb"-"
WEDDING
DELAYED
Fate Works Strangely to
Complete a Romance.
Anthony Olcott was roninntlc. Ho
fell in love with Marguerite Scarle, and
when her mother would not consent to
tho mnrrlngo ho felt that the bottom
had fallen out of tho universe. Mar
guerite would not marry him without
that consent, and ns thero was no hopo
and he felt he could not live near her
nnd not possess her ho went to n point
as far distant as he could well get
within the limits of the United Stntes.
He settled in Seattle.
Ho was an attractive fellow, nnd
there wero attractive girls in the f:ir
west, but Olcott considered his heatt
broken nnd would have none of thcui.
Ho was certainly n faithful lover, for
he cherished Marguerite's Imago in his
heart, and, though ho and she grew
out of their youth, that imago remain
ed the same. Mnrgucrlte married to
suit her mother about a year after
Olcott's separation, but Olcott did not
hear of it till long after and then only
that she was married. When, where
nnd to whom he did not learn.
Then Olcott's uncle died nnd left him
a fortune on condition that ho should
tnko the uncle's name, Howe. Olcott
accepted tho terms and the fortunu
and went cast to manage his estate.
He was now forty Instead of twenty
and began to feel tho necessity of a
companion, no was expected by tho
terms of the will to open the manor
house and would need Eomo one to
take care of it and preside over it.
The romance in him had died out at
least he said so and he made up his
mind to marry on common sense prin
ciples. Some of his friends advised
him to choose a woman much younger
than himself, since tho wife should b"
younger than the husband, and ho
would find a girl of twenty much moro
tractable than a woman of forty. But
Olcott or, rather, Howe, which was
now his name demurred, declaring
that lie would marry ono near his own
ago.
Among those to whom he was intro
duced after his return to tho east was
n Mrs. Harding, u widow. There was
.something about her that reminded
him of his old love. Perhaps this in
lluencod him, though ho did not ac
knowledge it to himself. At any rate,
he made up his mind tho first time lie
saw her that she was the woman he
wanted, no was hurried into a some
what precipitate proposal from th
fact that she was preparing for a two
years' absence in Europe.
"I know," ho said to her, "thnt wo
have both passed that romantic period
where we think we can love but once,
I confess that my heart was given to
another when I was but half my pres
ent age, nnd I have been true in n ro
mantic point of view to the girl I
loved and shall always be thus true.
But the affection of more mature
;ears is still mine to give, and I am
told by married people that the love of
roninnce in time hardens into a family
love that, if less violent, is far deeper
and moro enduring. That love I offer
you."
"1, too," said the widow, "have pass
ed into that stage which you describe.
1 have had one love in which my heart
was absolutely engaged, and I can
never have another such, but I cau
love as you say, and if such a love is
acceptable to you it is yours."
Howe winced, no was quite willing
to give n dead love, but when It earao
to tho point ho found ho preferred n
live ono in return.
"There is a difference," he said, "be
tween our cases. In yours the object
of your lovo is dead; in mine she may
be living, though, I confess, ns to this
I nm not informed. Sho married years
ago, since when I hnve heard nothing
of her."
"You mistake," replied the widow.
"My husband was not tlio lovo I refer
to. In my girlhood I loved one whom
I could not marry."
"Then," Bald nowe, "we are quits ns
to these two loves. Had we not better
let them romnin buried in tlio dead
past and devote ourselves to n living
present? I confess these old loves
when confronted with new ones nro
musty nnd hnve a sepulchral odor,
Dear Mrs. Harding"
"Call me Marguerite," she whispered,
letting her head fall on ills breast.
"Margueriter
"Yes, Marguerite."
"Marguerite Senrlo?"
"I was Marguerite Searle."
"And I am"
"Anthony Olcott."
"You knew me?"
"From tho first. A woman's love Is
not u man's, to forget even tho slight
est trait, a tono of voice, a step, n look
of the eye. She treasures these in her
heart, and when Uiey como to her again
after years of absence, though dis-
gulsed, thoy have for her the same
charm as of old."
"Marguerite, forgive mo for not
True, you reminded me of yourself,
but I confess"
"There Is nothing to forgive you for
unless it Is for being n man. Men can
not retain what is so enduring in wo
rann." "But it was you, not I, who"
"Yes; I obeyed my parents, though It
cost mo moro than It cost you. In this
you men hnvo the advantage of us
women. You nro stronger nnd less
emotional. But when It comes to true
lovo wo are far more fervent nnd en
during." After all, Anthony Olcott Howe con
cluded thnt there Is n romance in lovo
thnt neither time nor argument can
eradicate.
To Keep HSlp Light and Fluffy.
The proper care of the hair does not
require n womnn to scour her scalp
with soap and drench her hnlr with
water until n shampoo, including dry
ing the hnlr. takes i the better part of
tho day. In fnct, the less soap and
wnter used on the hnlr tho better, ns
nlknll nnd moisture tend to make tho
hair coarse, dull and brittle.
If you want to keep the scalp clean
nnd the hair light and fluffy try dry
shampooing. Put in n qunrt Jar or
any other handy container four ounces
of powdered orris root and four ounces
of therox. Stir and shake until thor
oughly mixed. A beautiful cleanslug
powder with n delicate perfume will
be the result.
Sprinkle n tnblespoonful of this mix
ture on the head nnd then brush it
well through the balr. This brings out
tho natural color of tho hair, makes It
soft and glossy nhd, If continued regu
larly, tends to make tho hair long and
abundant, for It Is n natural hair
grower.
Mr. Bailey's Rules.
Henry Turner Bailey, a Boston nrt
lst, has laid down n set of rules where
by women of high nnd low degree, fat,
thin, tall or short, can achieve ncsthct
ic perfection in style. Hero nre the
rules:
If you nro tall, wear gowns made on
horizontal lines nnd never have dress
es too long or too short.
If you nro short, your costume should
be mnde on vertical lines. Never have
your dresses short, regardless of stylo.
If you nre stout, dress plainly in a
one color scheme.
If you nre thin, n mixed goods is per
missible. Women possessing lnrge feet should
never wear tan shoes.
Whether feet nre large or small, tho
broad bulldog toe is Inartistic from ev
ery point of view.
In conclusion Mr. Bailey says, "Puffs
nro condomnable because they nre
false."
Rest the Scalp.
Best for the scalp Is imperative to
overcome the strain of wearing tho
large quantities of raise hair that nre
now fashionable, for in addition to the
toass of curls, puffs, etc., many pins
nro required to hold the coiffures In
shape. These pins nnturally pull tho
hair roots.
