Incline the body forward, but do not

Keep the chest raised and fixed AS

The birth Of a son to the duchess OF
costa, it is said was great shock to
:se princess Of Naples, which has in
creased her very natural grief at her
own childlessness. Prince Amadeo
(who by virtue of this childlessness is
now in succession to the throne) is a
small, fair-haired baby of about year,
with more than the ordinary amount of
babyish winning ways. One day the
princess met the little chap in corri-
dor in his nurses arms. She would
have avoided him, as usual, but as she
passed with averted head he suddenly
held out his fat, dimpled arms, and on
the impulse of the moment she took
him from the nurse, while her eyes
.lled with tears. The little fellow laid
ais lips on each of her lids, stroking
:.er cheeks with both hands. She gave
sob, and has ever since been his
most devoted slave.
