THE PLAYTHING OF A KING.

The emperor Of Germany has a toy
that would gladden. the heart of the
most exacting boy 1t is a miniature
frigate. full-rigged three masted war
ship, fifty-five feet in length drawing
but four feet of water, and having a
capacity of thirty tons. The ship is an
heirloom In the imperial family of
William ~, King of England, TO the
present German emperor's great-grand-
father, Frederick William III Ii gave
the reigning monarch his first taste of
life on the waves, and in his boyhood
days one of his favorite amusements
was to sail on the watery Potsdam In
company with his brother Henry, in
this tiny man-ofwar. At a distance
the ships dimensions are very de-
ceptiye, but a man at the rail or q boat
moving alongside soon brings out, by
contrast, the smallness of the craft
The frigate can be sailed in the same
manner as the largest ship. but the
crew must be Lilllputians in size and
scanty in number; a seaman of
ordinary build would be totally out of
place on the yards Of his vessel He
would probably be in grave danger OF
bringing the spars down to the deck
with his own weight Royal Louis"
Is the name Of this kingly toy; she was
christened after the Prussian
Queen Louise. The little
frigate was built on the
Thames River at Woolwick, England,
in 1892, and was towed down the river
and across the North Sea by a steamer
TO Hamburg; from this place a fiat
barge fioated her up the Elbe and into
the Have at Potsdam, where she still
remains. Woman's Home Companion.

GREATEST QUEEN IN THE WORLD,
Marie Corelli's Tribute to the Work
and Character of Victoria.


Queen Victoria was born May "a
1919. Her birthday this month gives
timeiness to tribute from her
favorite novelist Marie Corelli, in
Saturday Evening Post. She write':
The Englishman is ever quick to
sneer at women's advancement in art
in literature, in scholarship and
general intellectual ability, yet all the
while It's a woman who rules him, and
to woman alone he is compelled to
bend his knee, Off goes his hat at
sight of the queen! cheers break from
his throat at the proclaimed words. the
queen' knights and earls, and knaves
and churls' bow their heads to the
queen!' And with all peoples and Ia
all countries there seems to be only
one queen TO whom the article the
can be applied without further modl-
fication. Other queens are qualified in
their estate by the land over which
they rule-as. for example, queen Of
Italy, queen of Greece, empress of
Germany, empress of Russia; but when
the queen is said every one means
England's Victoria. OF all queens the
greatest. she is of all women the
simplest. and berein gives matchless
examples to her sex. Above the splen-
doris of her position and enthronement.
she is prominently woman in the
sweetest and most womanly sense of
the word-one who is gifted with
quick, fine sympathies, and who has
the supreme and exquisite tact which
is, or should be, inherent in every true
and unselfish feminine nature, combin-
ed with perfect self-command, flawless
purity and strong. personal potency
for good Throned and crowned and
sceptred in the fierce light of the whole
sorld's constant observation, she yet
remaines as unaffected and sincere OF
soul as the most unsophisticated OF her
subjects and it is very true one with
them in the ordinary round of their
daily existence.
Are we bereaved of our best below
ed? So is the queen. Have we suffer
ed from evil-speaking and misjudg-
ment? SO has the queen. And in our
joys is she not equally one with US
there?
in all quiet, natural and innocent
pleasures the queen is one with her
subjects; it Is only in social vice and
folly that she takes no part"
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1900-06-28
THE OLD HYMNS.

There's lots of music in 'em-the
hymns of long ago
AND when some gray-haired brother
sings the ones | used to know,
l sorter want to take hand! ! think
of days gone by,
'on Jordan's stormy banks l stand and
cast wistful eye."
There's lots OF music in 'em-those
dear, sweet hymns OF old
With visions bright of lands of light
and shining streets OF gold;
And / hear 'em singing, where
mem'ry dreaming stands,
From Greenland's icy mountains to
midas coral strands"
An so love the old hymns, and when
ny time shall come,
Before the light has left me, and my
singing lips are dumb,
L | can hear EN- sing them then. III
