a simple love story, but one SO deeply In

the Italians it is the one absorbing topic
and the one which they love best to dis.

cour her even during the long years af-
ter their marriage.
The Pearl of Savoy, as Marguerite is
always called, was but a Slip a girl

And al Italy knew that the Prince

And the Court Chronicler tells how His
Majesty kissed the Queens white hand
when he babe her adieu and begged to be
invited again.
Umberto fell in love with his royal con-
sort, and in true Italian fashion he court
ed her with unconcealed ardor. Day af-
ter day the King n Queen were seen
driving together, laughing and chatting.
At the Borgnese-on the Corso-day af-
ter day the delighted Italians saw the
royal pair and marked with tumultuous
joy the tender devotion of the Monarch
to his Queen.
And Marguerite blossomed into Won
derful loneliness and became a veritable
%coquette. Each day she seemed prettier
h the day preceding. She wore new
and bewitching toilettes. She made the
sombre Quirinal a place of gaety..
The Queens laugh like a silvery bell
would be heard at the court balls. The
King, like the languishing lover he was
hung upon his lady's SLIGHTEST word. A
certain villa was closed indefinitely.

LESSONS FOR THE

prominent in politics, begins Immediately

much to learn before he can take his
seat as president of the United States.
His school books will be h advice of
his predecessors, a lesson from the
Judge of the supreme court who ad-
ministers the oath of office, and the con-
%stitution of the United States. Certain
things are presented for the president
to do, Others he does from long-estab-
lished precedent
Chronologically in the order of events
exactly as they occur. the first thing a
president has to learn is ~self-denial His
oath of Office is administered in the open
exposure upon the East Capitol 'front.'
and from there he delivers his inaugural
address.
Sworn IN" IN THE RAIN.
A time-honored custom with the
weather bureau is to provide a drizzly,
sleety rain at this time, and the new
president, with barred head. promises to
forget himself, his welfare, his
opinions and his ambitions in the in
terests of the people. The rain baptizes
his head with this decision. The people
look on from their comfortable plat
forms, sheltered by umbrellas, and ap-

sacrifice. But he will a a cold in his

The Princess was a neglected wife. All
ITALY looked for a natural sequence.
Every day Umberto could be seen. IT one
chose to watch his coming and going. en-
teIing the villa of a young countess with
whom his name was constantly coupled.
In the outskirts of Rome it was no UNI
lal driving with his black-eyed mann
ial driy ing with his black-eyed inam-
orita in a low phaeton behind a pair OF
white ponies. Marguerite herself saw
her husband thus, and with wonderful
heroism Kept her own couns and made
no sign.
TIL Italians looked for an outbreak.
They predicted that Marguerite would
take her revenge.
But the neglected princess dissappoint-
ed the malicious and proved herself
worthy of those who truly pitied and
loved her.
When the little prince was born there
was a rumor that Umberto had sought
and received forgiveness from his
wronged wife, and stories of his tender
interest in the princess and hisattention
to her We're eagerly accepted by the
Italians.
But when the princess was able again
to take her daily drive she appeared as
before with a lady-in-waiting by her
side, and only at public functions were
the royal pair seen together.
Marguerite absorbed herself in her love
for her son.
SO time passed on and Italy grew ac-
customed to the loneliness of the queen
and knew her as the beneficient lady to
whom the poor never appealed in vain.
And all these years Marguerite. the ne
elected wife, loved her husband.
No breath of scandal ever dared to
come near the name of the immaculate
wife.
The Italians, first amazed, then cynical
finally realized the true value of the wo.
man who shared their kings throe. and
adored her.
When state occasions required his
presence with that of the queen, the alb.
