 Husband Vast Dominions.
 Alexandra of Denmark, who now becomes queen of Great Britain and empress of India, is one of the most fascinating and popular women in the whole ofher husbands vas dominions, ], nieh embrace one. quarter of the en- tire population of the known world. True, there are many women in Eng fish society who are infinitely more beautiful, whose figures conform far more closely to the ideal of the artist, and, above all, there are many who possess greater degree of brllIiancy, of dash and of wit, Notwithstanding all of this, whenever the gracious lady who has now become queen appears, not only does she become the cy nosure of all eyes, but, more than that, the loveliness of every other woman pres snt seems to pale. This, too, in spite og the fac. that she is the grandmother csSome six little ones, and nearer 6O years of age than 50. True, she re- mains amazingly youthful in appear ance, thanks, not so much to those vulgar devices known as making up," as to those judicious cares chat are en- tireiy legitimate. For instance, daily massage has been employed to help nature in warding off wrinkles from the fair face, while the elasticity and elegance of the figure have been re- tanned by means of exercise, modera- tion and diet, to the same phenomenal degree as in the case of the late em- press of Austria at the time of her assassination. The hair is dressed in precisely the same quiet and charac- teristic manner of twenty-five years ago. The head retains the same dainty boise on neck so graceful thatit con veys the impression of a slender stalk supporting flower, while the eyes as suredly have neither dlmmed nor changed, flashing as in days of yore wilh tun or mischief, or else sweetly appealing in that sort of pathetic man ner peculiar to people who are hard of hearing.
 Bnt it is not this that makes the new queen of England so fascinating that renders her so much more attractive that people of immeasurably superior beauty. Nor can it be described as magnetism. For magnetism implies something that is violent and against which one would be inclined to resist. But it is the sweet, gracious and kind ly manner that converts every man who sets eyes upon her into her sworn admirer, and that even disarms the jealousy of women, transforming her into their devoted friends.
 It has sometimes been alleged that the consort of Great Britaln's new king is deficient in cleverness. In fact, l have seen it stated in print maniiestly by people who have never been brought within the radius of her charms she is actually dull. True, she is not intellectual, in the sense of her sisterin-law, Empress Frederick, and it is difficult to imagine her in the role of a politician. But from the time of her marriage, eight and thirty years ago, she has lived an almost increasingly exposed life Co that full glare of publicity which beats about thrones, occupying by reason of the seclusion of the late queen, the role of the first lady in the land, at any rate in a social sense. And throughout that entire period she has not made one single mistake. She has known In her own friendly and calm manner people whom 1t was desirable that she should know. She has steered clear of all those acquaintances who might have given rise to ill-natured comment. She has never lost her head, never rendered herself guilty of any thing that could be construed as partaking of the nature of a faux pas and has, by means of the atmosphere of ideal refinement which she seems 10 dlffuse around her, kept within bounds the tendency of modern society to ex- uUerance ana vuigarity, and, perfect m tact, has presented through her married fife a picture of the most un- rufiled domestic happiness.
