LORD KELVIN’S SUMS.
TWICKENHAM
Famous as the Abode of Many English
Literary Giants.
The place to which the lover of Eng
lish literature will sooner or later turn
his steps Is Twickenham. No other
small town can boast of having been
the residence and tieloved abode of so
many famous literary lights. With It
are associated the Immortal names of
Pope, Horace Walpole. Swift, Gay,
Lady Wortle.v Montagu, Gibson, Bos-
well. Johnson. Tennyson and Dickens.
Surely this Is enough to make any
place doubly Immortal! Twickenham
was well nicknamed by Horace Wal
ls, le the Balae. or Tivoli, of England,
for It has truly been to London what
Balae was to ancient Rome—Indeed, in
a far higher degree. The big red brick
house In Montpelier road where Alfred
Tennyson lived for so many years of
his earlier married life was the one In
which many of his earlier poems were
written. There his son Lionel, the sec
ond Lord Tennyson, was born, and
there the author of “Idylls” entertained
many of his literary friends and ac
quaintances. That house should surely
be sacred to all lovers of English liter
ature. which saw the dawu of "In Me-
morlam,” which witnessed those de
lightful gatherings graced by Tenny
son, Hallam and kindred spirits within
Its walls It Is today called "Tennyson
House.’’—Westminster Gazette.
Men's Maids.
“Men's maids, yes,” said an employ
ment agent. “There are more of them
than of men's men or valets. Visit the
fashionable hotels of California, Flori
da, the Riviera. Egypt, and as you pass
open bedroom doors of a morning or
an afternoon wbat do you see? Maids
changing the studs in evening shirts,
pressing trousers with patent alcohol
Irons, brushing coats and putting fresb
laces In boots. The average well to
do couple—the couple that can afford
the best winter and summer resorts—
travel with a maid, but not with a
maid and a valet for, after all, a valet
is very expensive, and his duties occu
py only a few hours a day, and a maid
can get through all of them just as
well as not, So the average lady's
maid Is a man's maid as well—maid to
the wife, valet to the husband. She
___
likes her latter duties. They are, you
see. simple and easy, and they draw
forth the most generous tips.”—New
York Press.
Reynard th. Fox.
Renard, or. as It Is more usually
written, Reynard. Is the name given
to tbe fox In a famous German epic
of the fourteenth century called "Rey

middle ages, the different animals, each
