ories About Well.Knowu People
The Chair King..
There is e reran in London who can
claim to have given more rest to the
public: than any other man in the
country, He is Mr. W, M. Shanly, the
"Chair King," whose chairs dot the
royal parks' rind other: open spaces of
London, With more than 30,000 chairs,
at Wembley, Mr, Meanly now has
about 150,000 under his control. The
enterprise was: started seventy years
ago by his father, and he himself has
controlled it for forty yearn.
Mr. Shanly supplied chairs for gar-
den parties at Winctsoi' Castle in the
days of Qneen,Victoria, and since then.
at Buckingham Palace for Edward
VII. and the present King. Holiday-
makers at a number' of seaside resorts
also use his• chairs.
Making Lord Balfour Blush.
Probably the most femme bachelor
of to -day is Lord Balfour, who has per-
sistently shunned matrimony, in spite
of rumor's efforts to couple his name
with that of some fair lady. This.
"chronic" singleness has not been
without its amusing side.. Once when
he was lefr. A. J. Balfour, he was stay-
ing at an hotel when' a postcard etas
brought to him.' It read: "Baby going
on .nicely. I really think she has'
grown since you left."
He blushed deeply and felt very em
barrass�ede until it was discpvered
that there was another A. J. B. among
the guests!
Accuracy.

n Doyle—and nothing to do with
piritualism.

A Peeress es Hotel Director.
The ranks of business have received
an interesting ;recruit. She is the
efarshioness of Carisb:•ooke, who has
just become an hotel director, The
scene of her...labors. will be Strathpef
ger Spa, about seventy miles fton In-
verness, where nnapy people go to
take the medicinal waters.
Lord Carisbrooke is also interested
in business, being a director of a great
shipping line. He )vas, of -course, form-
erly Prince Alexander of Battenberg
-lie renounced his German title dur-
ing the war—and wase a great favorite
of Queen Victoria, His career is un-
usual in that he gave up a cotnmisfslon
fie • the ,Navy to take up' one' in the
Army. He has a large repertoire of
comic, songs with which he amuseshis
friends. Lady Carisbrooke is a .clever
musician and, composer.

One Year to Live.
Mary Davis Reed, Hagerstown, was
awarded second prize of 25 in the con-
test recently conducted by the Balti-
more Evening Sun., She received the
prize for the following answer to the
question, "What would you do if you
had only on•e more year to live?"
"Il' I had but one year to live.
One year to help; one year to give;
One year to love; one year to bless;
One year' of better things
g to stress;
Once year to sing; one year to smile;
To brighten earth a little while;
One year to. 1111 niy.' Maker's praise;
One year to fill with work my days;
One year to strive for a reward
When I should stand beeoremy Lord
I think that I would spend each day,
In just the very selfsame way
That I do now. For from afar
The call may come to cross the'bar
At any time, and I must be
Prepared to' meet eternity.
So if I have a year to live,
Or just one,clay n which to give
A pleasant• smile, a helping hand, ,
A. mind that tries to understand
A fellow:creature when -" in need,
'Tis one with me,—I take no heed;
But try to live each day He sends
To serve n y gracious elaster's ends."
Hen That,Helped Industry:.
The secret of making sugar perfect-
ly white was disoowered in a curious
way. A hen which had been through
a day puddle went with her Muddy
feet into a sugar -house and left her
tracks, on a, pile of sugar.
It `wes .observed that wherever the
tracks were the sugar was whitened.
Experiments were made, and•it was
discovered that wet clay could be used
in refining sugar.
The ,sugar• was put into earthen jars,
of sugar -loaf' form,. and clay was put'.
over the tops and kept wet. There

Queensland electors . book the trouble
'to go to the Dells up to' 1915, wlten'the
comeulsory:voting:'law for the:, state
was: passed. The percentage then
jumped to more than 88 per cent,. This
high figure has not been 'quite maiii
tabled, as the percentage of voters in
the election of 1920 fell to s0. This
percentage, however, compares favor-
ably with . the states .where compul-
sory voting -was not enforced.
According to figures for the "most
;recent elections in other states, the
-proportion of electors who voted was
54 per cent. in ATew-South: Wales, 68
in Victoria and South Australia, 67 in
West Australia and 66 in Tasmania.
Between a fourth and a half of the
electors also failed to vote in federal
elections. Compulsory registration,
which has. been enforced throughout,
the commonwealth several years, was
but a prelude to the compulsory vot-
ing law now enacted.
