Steven- son, “has been set aside in the growth of Edin- burgh, and stands gray and silent in a workman’s quarter and among breweries and gas works.” The gas works have gone since Mr. Stevenson wrote, but the breweries remain, and otherwise the environs of the palace are little changed. Among them, however, must be numbered the magnificent royal park, the pic- turesque line of serrated rocks which form the Salisbury craigs and the lofty hill, crowned by its noble lion’s head, which owes its name of “Ar- thur'’s Seat” to its associations with the old Arthurian legends of Edin- burgh. Of royalty itself Holyrood has seen but little since James VI. of happy memory left it to occupy the throne of Elizabeth. The fact that the reigning British sovereigns are to reside in the palace as well as to hold state functions there has greatly in- creased the enthusiasm of their visit to Edinburgh. Scenes of Romantic Interest. The rarity of royal residence adds to the importance of its occurrence. King George will be the first reigning king, the second reigning sovereign to oc- cupy the palace since the time of Charles I., while Queen Mary will be the first queen consort to reside there since Anne of Denmark, James VIL's queen, quitted its walls. In 1633 Charles I. was crowned in the chapel royal at Holyrood, and in 1641 he spent about three months in the pal: ace—not very happily. From that time tin George IV. visited Edinburgh in 1822 no British monarch crossed its threshold. And George IV. while holding various state ceremonies in Holyrood resided in Dalkeith house. Queen Victoria and the prince con- sort also lived at Dalkeith on the oc- casion of their first visit to Edinburgh, in 1842. In the autumn of 1850, how- ever, her majesty and Prince Albert resided for a couple of days in Holy- rood, apd subsequently the queen when going to or returning from Bal- moral several times broke her jour- ney at Edinburzh and spent a night in the palace. In April, 1903, King Ed- ward held a court at Holyrood, but his majesty and Queen Alexandra resided at Dalkeith house. 1t is fondly hoped that the coming visit of their majesties to the ancient palace of the Stuarts may be the pre- cursor of many to follow and that the dimmed brilliance of Holyrood may be restored and its past glories in some part at least revived. Although not the oldest of the Scot- tish royal palaces, that of Holyrood house is in many respects the most interesting. It appeals to the imagina- tion as none other does. It has been the scene of some of the most splen- did, the most romantic and the most tragic incidents in Scottish history— of coronations, royal marriages, festiv- fties, court revels, plots, conspiracies, feuds, intrigues, murders. Moreover, while Linlithgow and Falkland palaces are of earlier date, for nearly four and a half centuries before the erection of a royal palace at Holyrood the mag- nificent abbey which stood there was closely associated with the Scottish sovereigns. Founded in 1128 by David 1, this religious house was frequently used as a royal residence; pariia- ments met within its walls and in its church kings were crowned, wedded and buried. The Residence of Scottish Monarchs. The erection of a royal palace was begun about 1501 by James IV., and from this time onward its was the chief residence of the Scottish mon- archs. It is noteworthy that one of the first events connected with it was the marriage of James to the Princess Margaret, daughter of Henry VIL of England—from which marriage came the union of the crowns. James V. ex- tended the palace and it has associa- tions of a peculiarly close and inter esting character with his unfortunate daughter, Mary. Here the lovely queen of Scots en- 6 .| $ayed a brief period of happiness after her return from France; here she read with George Buchanan, played chess with her favorites, danced with Ches- terfleld, listened to the music of Rizsio and held stormy interviews with John Knox. Here she wedded Darnley; here Rizzio was slain, and here shé celebrated her nuptials with the ruf- flanly Bothwell. James V1. lived chief 1y at Holyrood before his accession to the throne of England, and it was here 8ir Robert Carey brought him tidings of the death of Queen Hilzabeth. He visited the palace only omce after wards. The two visits of Charles I. have already been referred to. While no reigning sovereign occupied' Holy- rood subsequently for a couple of cen- turies James II. lived there twice while he was duke of York. The palace, too, played a romantic part in the rising of 1745. For six weeks Prince Charles Edward held a court in it and gave reeceptions, halls, etc. After the French revolution Holy- rood twice provided a residence for the exiled royal family of France. In 1859 King Edward, then prince of Wales, lived in Holyrood while he was studying, and in 1363-1864 the duke of Edinburgh, afterwards duke of Saxe- Coburg-Gotha, resided in the palace, while he was attending Edinburgh university. Of the ancient abbey of Holyrood, frequently plundered and burned, nothing remains but a part of the fine church, afterwards the Chapel Royal. The palace was set fire to in 1544 by the English and although at once re- paired was again destroyed three vears later. Rebuilt almost immedi- ately, it suffered once more during the civil wars, when most of the building was burned by Cromwell’s troops. Aft- er the restoration it was rebuilt by Charles II., who took a great interest in the work and made several sugges- tions which, it is said, were treated with great respect, although they were ignored. The existing palace, with the exception of a remnant of the building of James V. (the northwestern towers, in which are situated the historical apartments), is the structure of Charles: II. The residential part of the palace in- cludes throne room, drawing-rooms, dining-rooms, etc;, and several have a magnificent outlook toward Arthur’s seat and the Salisbury eraigs. In an- ticipaticn of the present royal visit the building has been thoroughly over- hauled' and extensive renovations car- ried out externally and internally. Many modern facilities have been in- troduced. Most of the private apart- ments of the king and queen have been redecorated, and' her majesty has taken a great interest in the details of the work. The wall papers have been selected by herself. MANKIND’S DEBT TO DICKENS: English Municipal Authority Well Said the World Is Better Because He Passed Through it That the memory of Charles Diek- ens and his tender sympathy with mankind have great influence in the world today was touchingly shown in an address recently made at Hull, England, by W. C. Dawson, a magis- trate of that city who, in response to a toast, “The Trade and Commerce of Hull,” said he liked to think what would most have interested Dickens could he have visited the city that day. It seemed to him that Dickens might not have been greatly inter ested in commercial prosperity, that he would not have wished first to vis- it the public buildings and art gallery, but would have asked to be taken to the workhouses of the city, and there should have found the spirit of hu- manity had displaced the spirit of Bumbledom; that if he had asked for his little Oliver Twist they could have taken him not to the work- house, but to tho cottage houses at Hessle (a suburb of Hull) where the orphan children breathed pure air and ate good food; that Dickens would have found similar changes at the police court, the industrial school and the day schools. And what an inter est he would have taken in the efforts of the watch committee to protect the “Little Emilys"” from the “Steer forths” of society and to seek out those poor misguided “Nancys” and try with kindness to win them back to the | paths of virtue. He thought Dickens er and brighter world than the world 1 knew,” and they would say: “Even, 80, master, because you passed through it.” First in His Line. “It was Atlas, wasn't it, pa, who held up the world?” “Yes, my son.” “Then he must have been the flrn| hold-up man, wasn't he?” Remoree. “But,” she complained, “you told me you had a rich uncle.” “I know It.” he sadly replied. “T) regret that lle more than you ever! can—now.” ) ELAND. FLA,, B e Smeons—————e L GRS AUG. 25, 1913 m———— COAT SUIT OF TAN EPONGE’ Both in Cut and Materials Particular | ly Effective for the Young Girl's Wear. A particularly becoming coat suit of epgnge for a young girl is offered here as a sugges- tion. Tan eponge was used for the suit with collar and turned-back cuff of the same material in white. A broad, stiffened belt of black vel vet holds the’ blouse fullness of the coat. The blouse closes in slightly surplice effect above the belt, while the lower eoat portion shows the cuta- way influence. But- tons of black vel- vet with attend- ant buttonholes are placed just outside the shaped collar of white. The skirt is plain save for three deep tucks half way between knee and hem. “TUB” MATERIALS IN PLENTY Among the Many Offered There le Ample Opportunity for Selec- tion of Pretty Frock. The tub frock has included wash- able voile in its materials this sum- mer, and that dear old fabric has arisen from its ashes more delight- fully useful and ornamental than ever, and makes the prettiest frocks for those who want something fairly thin, washable, that will wear &z decent time, and which will look nice to the end. 'The wasiiing crepons, among other popular materials, always look smart i? well cut and worn, while, in my opinion, the most useful frock of all is of the handkerchief type, plain cambric or batiste with little hem- stitched colored edges. It is extraordi- nary how adaptable this type of frock |, is; simplicity being the order. it can be worn with the most country sort of hat, or by the addition of a not too elaborate but smart sash and a cha- peau of a more afternoon description (still holding to the simple note), and the possible finizh of a frilled collar and elbow cuffs, or a set in old em- broidered net or muslin, it can be pressed into service for a far more important occasion. All the foregoing is to the address of the young person, and not to that of her mother—or even grandmother!—these fair ladies having a way of taking to thamselves advice to the ingenue as a matter of course nowadays unless firmly told they must not!—London Queen. HANDS NEED NOT BE ROUGH Even the Busiest of Housewives Can, Find Time for This Simple Beau- tifying Process. & Here are some useful hints, which, it followed, will be found to produce excellent results in keeping the hands in good condition. The last thing at night, wash the hands with a good soap in not too hot water, and after they have been thoroughly cleansed (a soft nail-brush being permissible as long as the skin is not injured), in clean warm water to. which a few drops of tinciure of benzoin has been added Dry them on a soft towel and rub them well with cocoa. butter, allow- ing it to sink into the skin. Massage: the back of each havd and the fin- gers with the fingers of the other hand, rubbing them with the tips in a. circular movement, and gradually working down to the nails. Now rub over with olive oil, and put on a pair of old chamois leather | gloves, which, it kept on all night, will make the skin soft, as well as nice and white. In cleaning the nails aever use a steel instrument er the points of the scissors. Stains and dirt can be re- moved by rolling a tiny wad of cot- | ton-wool on the end of an orange stick and moistening 1t with diluted per oxide of hydrogen.
