When the King Laughed.

One Of the three occasions on which
Philip ". of Spain laughed was as fol
lows: Philips first wife, Isabella Of
Bourbon, died in 1915, and the next
year he married the Austrian Arch
duchess Maria Anna. This princess
understood Spanish but very imper-
fectly. Passing on her way to the cap
ital through a certain town which was
distinguished for its silk manufactures,
she was presented by the inhabitants
with a few dozen silk stockings. Heed
less of the queens presence, the master
of ceremonies snatched the parcel out
of the hands of the town councillors,
flung it on the ground and exclaimed in
a rage:
"Are you not aware that the queens
of Spain are not supposed to have any
legs?'
The queen, with her imperfect knowl-
edge of Spanish. here began to weep,
called for her father confessOr. Reit-
hardt, and told him that she meant to
return to Austria. If she had known
that in order to become queen of Spain
1t was necessary to have ones limbs
