THE PLAYTHING OF A KING.

The emperor of Germany has a toy
that would gladden. the heart of the
most exacting boy 1t is miniature
frigate. a 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 w., King of England, to the
present German emperor's great-grand-
father, Frederick William H. 1t 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 wauery Potsdam, in
company with his brother Henry, in
this tiny man-ofrwar At a distance
the ships dimensions are very de-
ceptiye, but man at the rail or 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 Lilliputians 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 1882, and was towed down the river
and across the North Sea by steamer
to Hamburg; from this place a fat
barge floated her up the Elbe and into
the Havel 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
timeliness to a tribute from her
favorite novelist, Marie Corelli, in
Saturday Evening Post. She writes:
"The Englishman is ever quick TO
sheer 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 a 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 10
all countries there seems to be only
one queen to whom the article the,
can be applied without further modi-
fcation. 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
Englands Victoria. Of ali queens the
greatest. she is of all women the
simplest, and herein gives matchless
examples to her sex. Above the SPLEEN
doris of her position and enforcement,
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, fawless
purity and a strong, personal potency

sceptred in the fierce light of the whole

a Soldier Letter.

The following is an extract of a
letter received by friend from
Mathew Rains, of the And U. S.
Vols, now at Manila, dated
March 18th:
cit is very warm here at present
and before long we will be visited
by the rainy season, then every low
piece of land will be like lake.
We are encamped on high hill in
the mountains and it is very dry
Every time the wind blows it
raises the dust in clouds in our
tents. When it rains little, the
ground being clay, we can carry a
small sized farm on the souls of
our shoes. We go out on the lakes,
over the mountains, about twice n
week. Tho natives are attacked by
Ladrones (robbers) quite often.
We can hear them hollow, when
they are being robbed, then we
have to fall in line and go in pur-
suit, but they are too quick for us
and run as soon as they see us COM
ing, SO we have never caught any
of them yet. The natives are very
treacherous. You could meet one
on the road and he will tip his hat
and just as soon as you pass him
he is very apt to turn and sink a
knife into your back.
Bananas and oranges are quito
plentiful here.
Our Colonel's time is out in
June, and we saw in the Army and
Navy journal that the And would
retire in July. We only hope it is
true. I have enough of this hot
country. We have not received
any pay for nearly three months1
and we expect it in few days
Last night one hundred and three
possibly more, natives were held
up by the Ladrones, and we had
to fall in line and give chase but
we did not get any of them. 1t is
warm enough to go without our
underclothes on, and to sleep on
top of our beds at night, The flies
are thick in daytime and the mos
quitos at night
Some of the men here are shoe
makers, some are carpenters, and
there are all kinds of trades like
there are in the U. S.
