to tilling the fields and marketing tn
products.
All of his life the prince has lived
in the great art crowded palaces OF
Italy's king, with tutors examining
learning into him, and with doctors
working over his puny body. Som
people say that Victor Emanuel, the
prince of Naples is the most learne
man in Europe. He has plenty OF
learning and but little knowledge
just like great many pedants in this
free land Of ours. Every care was
lavished upon the prince. Little or
none was given the princess until she
fell under the care of the dowager
Empress Of Russia.
Her fathers life is not a pleasal
one for daughter to look upon. H

Of his best subjects have driven many
of them out of the country. His total
income is but $4,000 a year. 500 900 o
this being given him by the Russian
government, and he spends ten time
that sum- His only redeeming quality
is his courage and rough regard for
his people when it does not call for
any sacrifice of his pleasures.
The men of Montenegro deem 1t a
disgrace to work. Every man is a
soldier, and he carries his arms with
him wherever he goes. Murders are
plentiful, but the murderer is never
executed, unless he shoots his victim
in the back or kills him in some COW
ardly way. The usual punishment
for murder is to deprive the murderer
of his firearms for a certain length OF
time and force him to walk up and
down the public square in the day
time. This is regarded as an awful
disgrace. Theft is a rare crime, posi-
bly, because no one has anything worth
stealing.

Italy's next queen will be the most

the courage OF lion, the physique of

She rides like an Arab and handles a

lived among the most savage and the
most polished people Of Europe, and
Is thoroughly at home with both. She
can knock over small birds with re-

make her a lover Of the wild and fe-
rocious, and she has the intelligence
and the training to make Of her fin
ished woman of the world.
This is a crude summary Of Princess
