Nell was 17 when she first met the King, ami charmingly pretty. 7\ I r Dasent tells us that. “She was of middle height. exquisitely formed, with the smallest foot and neatest ankle in all the town. Her hair wrts bronze red. her eyes of the darkest imaginable shade of sapphire blue, her month a perfect Cupid’s how. and she had a complexion like the wild rose.’’ Hut perhaps the greatest beauty of her face, and it is one that is seldom or never found in those of plebian birth, was that lior eyebrows and eyelashes were dark, in striking contrast to her warm, red hair. A sprig of the Cavalier nobility, a youth named Yillicrs. escorted Nell to the play one afternoon, and the King, who was there incognito, insisted on inviting himself to supper with the young actress and her cavalier. When the tavern-keeper presented his hill, Charles fumbled in his pockets. only to find that lie had not enough money with, him to discharge it. The Duke of York, his brother, being equally pec-unions. \ illiers had to pay the reckoning, not only for himself and his inamonata, but for all four. Before the party broke up Charles “ declared his royal will and pleasure to he that Nell should retire from the stage at the earliest moment. and place herself under his protection.”

AA’ork is ;ni old-fashioned tiling, and unless civilisation can evolve a typo that can study amid distractions, boys and men must have a reasonable degree of quiet if they are to concentrate. The whole trend of city life however, is against quietness and repose. The telephone, the motor-car and wireless do more than annihilate distance; they destroy rest, and reflection. They create, like the merry-go-round. an illusion of progress.— Aueklaml “ Star.” A eonsiderahe part of the Uailwav t'oiionsisioners’ report marches with views .Mr Conics had expressed before he oculd have seen if. From these cireumstanees it is possilile to hope that a new <>ra of eflieieney and useful scrvise is ahead of the Itailway Department. The labours of the eommission have resulted in a volume of what must he granted as broadly conceived, shrewd, and practical advice, admirably adapted to lie a guide in working lo that end.—” New Zealand Herald.” The ambassadors of trade, commercial travellers “strike a true note" and ask for .Mild Yellow I,;ilm-I \Vhiskv.
