But the Czarina IS more concerned
with the personal safety and comfort

That he be allowed thres nurses in

uses for the czarevitch.
That one English nurse be brought

daughter Of the old nurse who took care
OF the Czarina in her childhood.

She asks that an English physician
be brought into consultation with the

that the diet of the young Car be left
to her own discretion.
Although her son Is only six weeks
old. for he was born early IN August
the Czarina has already had to fight
many battles for him. for the Car is
jealous OF the boy and his future Their.

and the ministers are helping him.
These are the things the czarevitcb
already possesses for his personal use.
A large royal nursery dedicated 70

wide building IN a park Of palaces. and
the room is large and fitted with four
beds for the various nurses and the

There IS a bed for the nurse who at
