ITALY,S ENERGETIC QUEEN.
Has Had Her silver Wedding, but Is
an Ardent MOuntaineer.

New OTR
How many of our American women who
have celebrated their silver wedding can
compare with Queen Margharita, of Italy,
the Pearl of Savoy. who, remarkaoly glIl-
gree. spends most of her summer days IN
climbing the mountain heights ABOUT
GrosSonay?
What would some of her indolent sisters
upon this side of the water say at being
asked to rise about a. M; refresh ,i,,1 them ld
be we'll up the mountain side before dawn!
The majority of them, it is safe to say,
would laugh at such mad folly and turn
over for a substantial morning nap.
Not so with Queen Margharita, however,
for that is an everyday occurrence WIN
obtain a woman companion from her court,
and large court at that for her Majesty
women in attendance upon her throughout
the year than any other royal woman OF
Europe. But not one of her women in
waiting is sufficiently sturdy and athletic
to keep up with her queen, who will climb
almost steadily for thirteen or fourteen
hours, keeping pace with the men or the
party who are, as rule trained noun
Her Majesty is described as wearing an
essentially feminine costume, consisting of
close-fitting tweed jacket, with snort
skirt and knickerbockers, and golf cape
OF the same material slung from her shoul-
ders She wears CATERS TO the knees. and
boots thickly studded with large and sharp
hobnails- Her head gear may be a close ot
fitting tweed cap or a wide r1mmed nat,
according to the condition of the weather;
and when most sunny a thick white ven
will float from her hat. Field glasses in
Well-worn black leather case occasionally
are slung across her back but more fire.
uuently are carried by the guide, while her
stout alpen-stock sometimes is exchanged
for an ice AK. with which her Majesty is
skilIful in cutting her way up a white per-
penGicGlar cliff. The spectacles of smoked
glass framed in wire netting. as favored
by mountaineers, are carried in the right
hand pocket ready for adjustment when
the sun on the glacier becomes too trying
to the eyes while the opposite pocket of
the Jacket contains a cake of chocolate,
which enables one to go for great length
of time without other food.
The Queen, like true daughter of rocky
Savoy, never seems a-weary, but tramps
on and on while her foot rarely errs in
finding out the safe points on the rough
powders and treacherous moraines. Thus
she passes day from sunrise to sunset.
and the moon itself often is riding high
before she returns to her charming coun-
try home where the white cross of Savoy
marked out on the red flag floats in wel-
come from the roof. Then the ice ak IS
thrown aside that she may caress great
heavy poodle which tumbles out to greet
her a thousand and one lights twinkle out
q CHEEKY greeting, and finally her Majesty
retires to a healthful rest, with her mind
full of plans for perhaps some still more
hazardous and exciting expedition on the
following day.
