The Most Beautiful Queen.

Queen Helen OF Italy since her mar
riage has been considered the most
beautiful princess OF Europe, as she is
now the most beautiful queen. 1t was
her beauty that won for her the love OF
the prince imperial. through whom she
is now the first lady OF Italy. Her
father. the king of no more important
a realm than Montenegro, could hardly
have expected OF her SO great dis
tinction. although her sister is married
TO Grand Duke Peter OF Russia. The
present kings unpopularity in court
circles dates from his marriage to this
dowerless bride. The jealousy with
which he guards her has added to the
personal dislike for the young king so
common among those in high places
Whenever at court functions or during
their travels etiquette demands that
the beautiful Helen should be escorted
by a minister or dignitary of the town
Prince Victor has invariably refused
the honor. permitting no one to ''usurp
the privilege" Ii * needless to say
that these tactics have made him thor
oughly unpopular.
