seen oil late years. There used to be :ls
handsome women formerly, but have not
seen one 80 handsome for twenty years.
She has not q wrinkle or sign o! age; her
complexion brilliant, her eyes dazzling her
lips red. her teeth perfect, her feature com.
manding, her expression that mysterious
thing we call beauty, her smile enchanting.
She was dressed in lilac, and it became her
magnificent lovelincss. That such ~ wom-
an can be the mother Of a grown.up son il
preposterous. Her daughters are very
plain. How the prince OF Wales can sec
beauty in any ono but his wife seems im-
possible. The Princess Christian, whom

is the most unaffected, agreeable, cordial
woman, with much bunhomie. stood next

me in my progress past royalty witha cor
dial smile and look of recognition. She
was in black and scarlet, and looked well.
