Conyright, 1912, by The Pree Putlishing Co, (The New York World), No. 25—HENRY VIII. z had six wives in very rapid succession. Being a king he nef’ little trouble in getting rid of most of his wives oon as they, tired him; and he had still less difficulty in replacing them. He differed from the average historic heartbreaker from the fact that he married most of the women whom he chanced to care for. And h@ married at least two women with whom he was not at all In love. Henry VIII. was an odd mixture of hero and monster, of beast and patriot, of statesman and blackguard. He raised England from a third. rate power to a permanent place in the world’s foremost nations. And he made his own name a byword and a term of loathin, He was the second son of King Henry VII. of England and was intended by his father for the priesthood. Then his elder brother, Arthur, died. And young Henry inherited not only his brother's position as Prince of Wales, but inherited his brother's widow as well. The widow was a Spam ish princess, Katherine of Aragon. She had brought a rich dowry to Prince. Arthur. And old Henry VII, who was an arrant miser, did not like the idea of giving back this dowry. So he married Katherine to his younger gon, Henry, and kept the money in the family. Hi ty did not want to marry Katherine, He aia 69 under state compulsion. She was nearly «lx years older than he. She was sallow, grave, pious, silent; whereas Henry was strikingly handsome and was bubbling over with gayety and youth. Yet the young husband made the best of the situation. His father died, and Henry VIII. began his career as King and aa husband at about the same time. He treated Katherine with courtesy and kindness; even with affection. For nearly twenty years he was @ more or lees exemplary husband and a wise and gentle ruler. Then came the great change. And {t was a woman who brought it about. Among Katherine's ladies-in-waiting was one Anne Boleyn. She waa de- cidedly pretty, despite the fact that she had two thumbs on each hand. More+ over, she was shrewd and ambitious. And it 1s to be feared she was not over- burdened with scruples or with undue goodness. She attracted Henry's attention, oraftily fanned that attention Into a flame of love and held him at arm's length, Henry decided to divorce Katherine and marry Anne. The Pope would not allow him to cast aside a good and faithful wife. So Henry broke loose from the Chureh of Rome, arranged the divorce from Katherine and married Anne. But Anne did not live long to profit by Katherine's misfortune. A new face— that of Jane Seymour—caught the King’s fickle fancy. Charges—whether true oF false--were brought against Anne and rhe was beheaded. Next day Henry married Jane Seymour. ¢ did not live long. And after her death Henry decided to contract a marriage of policy. By proxy he was married to Anne of Cleves, a German princess whom he had never seen. But at sight of Anne, who was fat, large and rather homely, Henry cursed her as a “Flanders mare,” and sent her back where she came from. Meantime this former mild rule had changed to ond of brutal cruelty. Re- dellions frequently occurred and were put down with ‘merciless violence. Men were executed by the hundred; many of them {nnocent of any crime. The once gentle King was becoming a monster. Katherine Howard was chosen by Henry as his fifth queen. She was foolteh enough to prefer other men to the King. This fault, nowadays, would have brought her merely to the divorce courts. But as she was the wife of Henry VII, King of England, it Involved a charge of treason as well, and brought her to the executioner’s block. : fi In no way discouraged by the fact that out ‘of five wives he had divorced two and executed two more, the King looked about for & sixth. He selected Katherine Parr, a clever, motherly woman. (Henry showed scant desire for novelty in the names of his six wives, Three were ‘Katherines” and two “Annes.") By this time he was growing old. His @od looks were gone. So was his health. He was enormously stout. A mortal malady had seized him; and he was nearing death. He used to indulge !n long disputes and arguments with his latest wife, And as she readily bested him in these, he began to look about for some tolerably good excuse to get rid of her. But Katherine was wise. Learning of his plan she told him that he was always in the right in their arguments and that she opposed him wnly in order to awaken his interest and make Bim forget, temporarily, hie Illness. This tactful lio appeased Henry, who at once good graces. Thus she ed her crown and je of fifty-five—leaving a record for mingled great ness and barbarity equalled by no monach of his day.
