Cotton flannel cloth, wet with a saturated solution of oxalic acid and water: and laid upon the keys, will re- move all stains.

King George of Greece Is also the guest of King Edward at Sandringham. . The King of Greece is an inveterate pyar to elapse without visiting some pert of Eurepe. It is this roving tendency that. almost led his Majesty to the- vicinity of the. Russian guns at .the time of the North Sea outrage, and has placed him in many difficult situations. He is the brother Of • Queen' Alexandra and, like her, is very- popular. with • his people, though at first he had tn live, dews a great deal of prejudice against him, as the Greeks were not at all anxious to have this Danish Prince as their men - arch. His pluck carried ,him through the earlier years - of -his reign as It has through ninny other things. Notwith- standing nienangers and treachery with which hti was surrounded. he has always insisted upon-. going -out unattended. This almost ' cosl, him his lite mice- . at least. He wasovalking in the vicinity of the palace, when the sharp challenge of a sentry rang out, "\Vho goes there?" ThQ King. made no; replygeinthe sentry's demand, "nine noes . there? AP.3Wer or I'll tire."' Still the King was silent. The next instant -the silence was broken by the sharp crack of a rifle and King George felt • a bullet plough throbgh the sleeve of his coat. Then to the terror of the sentry ' he 'Made himself known. Next day he sent for the man, and com- plimenting him on the way he had done hi, duty, decorated the astonished set - diet with the order of Redemption, given only for the greatest sconces. One cannot nut wonder what would have happened to the sentry if that bun len had ploughed the King's arm instead ot his coat sleeve. However, the above incident. is quite enough- to stow King George .as the most unconventional of monarchs. Officers who were at one 1 time in touch with him say that he u.sed 1 to compete 'at Greek amateur athletic I s-orts under the name of George Papa- doulos, and- was nlways se successful that spectators and participants began lo suspect. a maSquerading professional. and nt one contest. where the King had carried oil' prize after prize tor running, wrestling and the Eke, the feeling .he. rattle s..).striing against hint,.that an at - .l. mpt was .matie to innli the -.athletic. • i tonarch.
