member Of the church will make as
liberal subscription as possible and all
friends will come to the assistance Of
the committee the work will soon be
accomplished. 1t takes three things

an evening party, others that he did so in
the gardens round the palace while OUT
for a walk with the Princess. Probably
the latter story is the more nearly cor
rect. In any case, the scene of the be-
trothal of the Prince of Wales so many

with the scene of the engagement of the
Gear and the present Czarina.
Nicholas was as happy as could be and
proud of his intended wife in those hon
eyed days. For he was ever, as he is
still. more the affectionate father the
home ruler, than the King, though some
of his recent acts and methods, notably
the peace conference and his declarations
regarding such high matters, have shown
us that there lies behind that quiet-look-
ing face a stern will and a fixed determ-
ination to do what a king ought TO do,
and to carry out fully the work his Maker
has placed before him.
They are full of happy memories. these

from the added fame they have gained
owing to the circumstances detailed in
this article concerning them.
