(Publishers' Prept Lrased Wire. I
London, Feb. 4 It costs $60 a day to
guard King George from any possible
attempt at assassination and since the
recent recrudesenee of militant anarchy
In London, it is probable that the.addl
tlonal precautions to preserve his ma
jesty's life will be considerably In
creased. Kverv dav at 9 o'clock In the morn-
ire' two detectives are detailed for the
duty of watching over the safety of the
person of the sovereign for a certain
number of hours. During the time they
are on duty they : must be continually
. i. . C t-l ... -;...,. I. In -
near me nuig. "iicn mo nmjcoij ,w in
doors, they remain in the passage close
to the apartment In which the king may
be In. When he goes out driving or
riding, or to keep any public or private
engagement, his majesty's guardians al
ways follow their royal cnarge at a
short distance.
Elaborate and careful as the precau
tions taken to safeguard the monarch
are, they are carried out so unobtrus
ively and secretly that those in tne royai
entourage or even the king himself,
seldom have the slightest idea of the
whereabouts of the detectives.
The "chief Is the only member of the
detective staff at the palace with whom
the king' comes Into contact and It Is
doubtful if his majesty even knows the
appearances of many of the others.
The "chief" is always kept Informed,
as far In advance as possible, of the
king's movements and lays his plans ac
cordingly. :
Btootia Work Quietly.
The two detectives acting as personal
guardians to the sovereign are Instruct
ed by the "chief" of the king's move
ments and directly his inajecty leaves
the palace they follow the royal car
riage. The detectives are always well
disguised and their plans for keeping
guard over the sovereign are constantly
being changed and altered and are, of
course, kept strictly secret. They man
age their business very cleverly, for
without attracting the least attention
they always keep a close watch on the
sovereign's safety from the moment his
majesty leaves Buckingham palace un
til he returns.
The detectives who guard the king
at night go on duty at 9 o'clock ln the
evening; If the king dines out, one of
the detectives remains on duty In the
house where the king is a guest until
his majesty leaves.
This rule was not observed when the
late king used to dine, with Lord Knol
lys In St. James' .palace, but on such
occasions there was always a detective
on duty outside Lord Knolly's residence.
When the king becomes a guest at
a house party, a room is provided for
the detective staff In the apartments set
apart for the reception of the sovereign
and his suite.
All the passages at Buckingham pal
ace are constantly being patrolled by
members of the detective staff and the
personal apartments are also visited by
the detectives from time to time.
Windsor Castle Is, however, the most
elaborately guarded royal residence.
When the klngjs in residence at Wind
sor there are usually from 20 to 25 de
tectives on duty. Every entrance to the
castle is watched by an armed official
and throughout the long corridors and
passages there are always several detec
tives on duty. These elaborate precau
tions are made at Windsor castle chiefly
because, it can be entered more readily
than Buckingham palace. There are sev
eral secret entrances to Windsor caBtln,
whereas there are none to Buckingham
palace.
The king In this country goes about
more freely among his subjects than
any other sovereign Is able to do, but
nevertheless, his majesty Is at all' times
very carefully guarded.
Derivation of Bom Peers.
In view of the possibility that the
houm of lords may In the near future
be deluged with 500 new peers so that
the government program may be put
through parliament and the outcry about
the degradation of Britain's proud peer
age, It Is interesting to note the deriva
tion of some of our noble houses.
The Dukes of Et. Albans drew their
line from th "merrle monarch," and all
his royal forefathers, it Is true; but
our peerage books would not know them
If saucy and winsome Nell Gwyn had
never peddled oranges ln Drury Lane,
and the first duke was equally kin to,
sovereignty and the slums.
His grace of Northumberland is heir,
on the distaff side, to all the glories and
splendors of the Percles. By male de
scent he Is no Percy, but a Smithson,
whose forefathers drove the plow and
tended sheep ln the north country.
T'm Duke of Leeds we owe to the
enterprise that drew the footsteps of
one' Edward Osborne to London town
from his paternal cottage in Kent somn
centuries ago, and to the accident tlut
won him for bride the heiress of Wil
liam Hewitt, his master, after rescuing
hpr from the swollen waters Of the
Thames.
The Marquis of Salisbury Is the latest
of a long line of distinguished Cecils,
great statesmen and polished courtiers;
hut we should scarcely know him today
if his ancestor, Christopher Gascolgne,
had not ventured t& London when a boy
and climbed the civic ladder to its top
most 'rung, carrying- his money bags
with him. . -
The Marquis of Bsth owes his family
name" to a remote forefather who kept
the inn at phurch Streeton and thus
identified himself as "John o' th"Inne"
(In later days 'Thjrnne"), and whose an
cestor, seven generations back, was nn
under forested ln Shropshire. And the
Marquises of Ripon owe their fortune
to a shrewd line of Robinsons, who for
generations served the good people ;if
York behind the counter. When we de
scend to earls we find the commercial
strain ever stronger. Earls Cromer and
Northbrook (with the two baronial lines
of Ashburton and Revelstoke) had for
founder one John Baring, son of a poor
German parson who came lo England a
couple of centuries or So ago to make
his fortune, and who, after coming to
grips with poverty, was able to open
a small cloth factory near Exeter.
Descendants of Goldsmiths.
The Earl of Dudley draws blood and
wealth from one William Ward, who left
the Staffordshire cottage ln which he
had been cradled to learn the' craft of
goldsmith In London, and to reach the
goal of his ambition when Queen Eliza
beth made him her jeweler. The Earls
of Jersey are similarly Indebted to Fran
cis Child? another prentice lad of the
following Tentury who served behind th
rounter of William Wheeler, Jeweler and
goldsmith, under the shadow of Temple
Bar.
The founder of the noble line of Car-
rington, barons, viscounts and'earls, was
a modest tradesman, one John Bmth
who, ln the seventeenth century, , dis
pensed dress lengths and tapes to the
ladles of Nottingham without thought
or care for such baubles as titles or
peerages. . ; ,.. . "
The Earls of Warwick have on their
family tree such exalted names as Ne
ville and Plantageneb end many another
proud name of feudal days; but by far
the most important of their forefathers
was William Grevllle, a prosperous wool
stapler of five centuries ago; and Sam
uel Dashwood, who, from being a city
apprentice, found a fortune ln wines, and
lived to drink Queen Anne's health as
London's lord mayor Just orjsr two cen
turies ago.
The original Spencers, from whom the
ducal linn of Marlborough and the Earls
Spencer derive their 6rlgln, were no me
diaeval barons of Norman strain. They
were Inst Dlain. homelv farmers, who
Ullled their lands and bred fine cattle
In Warwickshire. The foundation stone
of the Capel (Enr,!s of Essex) fortunes
was well and truly laid by ope William
Capel, who tramped to London from
his poor Suffolk home to see for him
self If it was true that
its streets were paved with
gold. Much gold rewarded his quest,
though the pavements yielded none; and
he was Sir William and lord mayor be
fore he was laid to rest. His son proved
himself a doughty knight on French bat
tlefields, and wedded a daughter of the
old feudal family of Roos of Belvoir.
The Earls of Radnor .would have been
unknown today If a Flemish youth, Lau'r
renoo- de Bouverles, had never drifted
to. Canterbury, fortune seeking,-In the
days when Elizabeth was queen, and uy
hs shrewdness and hard labor, had not
made his pile as a turkey njerchant.
It was one Godfrey Fielding, who
served behind a mercer's counter n lllk
street, ln the days, of .Henry VL who
founded the noble family of Denbigh,
Just as Godfrey Boleyn (who, a - few
years later, succeeded Fielding as lord
mayor), made the fortune which led to
a crown for his great-granddaughtel,
Queen Bess. Gilbert Heathcote, who,
from serving customers I In the city of
London, became Its 'chief , magistrate,
has an honored place on the family trees
of Viscount Down and Lord Aveland.

You Can Feel
Your Eczema Heal
r A French automobile builder has detn
onetratod that tires made of comprssec'
leather win work successfully even ou
rough Hoods.
(From the American Drug Reporter.)
"Eczema on the head and scaTp Is a
common occurrence of a most common
disease, and It is to be regretted that
most retnediee for eczema which pro
duce cures when other parts of the
body are affected fail to give good re
sults when used for eczema on the head.
"The new drug qulntone is different
JrOin other eczema cures offered to the
public, for It proves an excellent remedy
for all forms of salt rheum, tetter, ring
worm, psoriasis snd similar skin dis
eases, and purchasers report that 'they
can feel it heal.'
"As eezama on the scalp causes annoy
ing Itching, dandruff and falling hair,,
the sales of? qulntone are rapidly in
creasing snd It Is probably the most
popular 'home treatment' known. All
that ts necessary Is to dissolve two
ouuees f. qulfltone.iii a. halt pint of hot
water and let It cool. For eczema on
the head rub qulntone lotion well Into
the scalp with the finger tips. , For
eczema elsewhere a cloth saturated with
qulntone lotion Is applied for a half
hour twicu a day to tho affected sur
face. Qulntone stops the Itching at
ones."
