until they are barely covered. Place the kettle
over the fire and let the grapes cook slowly until
they are tender enough to break easily. Then
mash them with a wooden mallet or spoon.

Denmark is O small country. which does not

King and Queen. Whenever there Is a court

Is King Christian IN, who is still young at
heart. although close to his eightieth year.
His wife, Queen Louise, is his senior by several
months. and has ceased TO dance in the royal
Guadrilles. She has been one OF the most sue
cessful match-niakors In Europe, and still takes
keen interest in this royal sport.
For her oldest son.. the Crown Prince, the
Queen found 2 suitable partner nearly thirty
years ago in Princes Louisa, daughter of tho
King Of Sweden and Norway. Her oldest daugh-
ter became thu Princess OF Wales. and her sec;
ond daughter tho wife OF Alexander ILL.,, and
mother OF the present Car OF Russia. -.
Her second son, after his election, as King Of
Greece, married a Russian Grand Duchess;

England, and with two other grandsons heirs to
the crowns Of Denmark and Greece. Queen Lou.

Princess was an heiress and the Duke Of Gum

Queen Louise. having married of all her chill

Q new series OF alliances for her grandchildren:
Her theory has been that the reiRning house Of
q feeble country like Denmark can be converted
into a centre Of influence in Europe by discreet,
but ambitious, marriages. She acted upon this
principle whom she advised her grandson, the
Crown Prince of Greece, to marry a sister of the
German Emperor.
The Queen is not only a matchmaker, but also
a woman Of great force OF character and a good
mind. Hcr influence has been felt In the family
councils throughout Europe. The late Car and
the present Emperor Of Russia have attached
great weight TO her advice. Copenhagen has
