When he declined to take any part in this scheme he was i then threatened with the lady’s grave lispleasure, and was bluntly told that /he would make it her business to see f that he was removed from his posi- , tion. His retort was prompt and sur- | prising.

Lord Stamfordham once remarked that “one never knows how popular one is until one is appointed to ft position at court." This is certainly true, since invitations from people of whom one has had no previous knowl edge simply pour in from all quar ters upon those whose good fortune It is to serve either the King or the Queen. An amusing story may be told in this connection. About this time last year an extremely well dressed lady went up to an official of the Lord Chamberlain's depart ment in Piccadilly one morning, ad dressed him by name, shook him warmly by the hand, reproached him for having "neglected her for so long." and made him promise he would call upon her on the following Thursday. This dene, she tripped away, leaving the courtier gazing after her in amazement, since he had not, and has not to this day, the slightest idea of her identity. King Edward’s Champagne. It Is not often that an official of the court Is so directly approached with an offer of monetary reward for his services in getting a royal war rant as was the case a few months ago. He was -written to by a firm of cigarette merchants hailing from America, forwarding him samples of their goods, together with the cool in timation "that they were well aware that the cigarettes 'were Just the thing the King could smoke and en joy,” and that for every 1,000 that His Majesty ordered the official ap proached could have 60 per cent of the account repaid. The reply was curt, but deserved. It was to the effect that the samples had been handed by the courtier to his Chauffer, who pronounced them rubbish, and that In those circum stances he did not feel Justified in pressing them upon his sovereign. It was due to the late King Ed ward, one of the finest connoisseurs of wine who ever lived, being served with a very indifferent brand of champagne one morning that the gravest ease of corruption that has ever been proved against the officials of the British court was brought to light. He asked the name of the firm Who Supplied it and what on earth it was doing in his cellars. He pur sued this matter to some length and Ultimately found that one of his most trusted servitors had been substan tially bribed to introduce this wine into the bins of the then Prince of Wales preliminary to an application for the royal warrant In the ordinary course. It Is on record that the of fender In this case was continued In his position Just under half an hour after King Edward was informed of his identity.

Among the number was a rather shady individual who had lost °ne eye. but seemed to be winning treely, and time after time he scooped Jri the money, put down by his less fortunate comrades. This continued for some time, when the man at the head of the table felt he could stand it no longer; eo he rose in a fearful temper and re marked : "Look ye ‘ere, boys, someone here b cheatin’. Now.
