when You write TO the queen.

The paper on which letters to Queen
Victoria are written must not be folded.
No communication which bears evil
dence of having been creased will ever
fall into her majesty's own hands. The
proper method is to write on thick,
glossy white paper, and to dispatch the
missive in an envelope which fits it.
Any folded communication never
reaches the queen, for the simple rea-
son that she never looks at it. All
such letters are opened by the mistress
of the robes, and, as a rule, their con-
rents never get beyond her, or, if the
letter is of Importance, it is returned
to the writer with the directions how
to forward it.-N. Y. Herald.
