The monarch drew himself up

The monarch drew himself up
grandly.
Il am Alfonso only to my mother"
be aid. Il am the King to you"
An odd circumstance Is that Alton
SOS heir presumptive to the throne
washls immediate predecessor. When
Alfonso XII. died, before the present
King wes born, the boys eldest sis
ter, the Princess OF the Asturias, bore
the title of Queen. Should Alfonso
XIII. die without issue she would
reign again.
Unfortunately the Princess fell in
love with and became engaged to
Don Carlos of BorbouD, relative of
the pretender to the throne. The
match was bitterly opposed by the
King and Queen Dowager and the
Cabinet; but the,bridegr Dom elect was
backed by the Pope and General
Weyler, two mighty powers in Span
ish politics
One day Queen Christina and the
King had been urging the Girl to
up the Prince.
"Oh, why was | born a Princess in
this odious country p sobbed the
Princess.
Her small brothers eyes flashed
and he seemed to grow q foot in
stature.
81 don't know" be retorted, "why
you should have been born a Princess
of Spain, for you are unworthy OF the
honor. But one day you may be
Queen of this 'odious country and
this prospect is grand enough to
cause you to pnt side all your love
nonsense. If God allows me to reign
l shall marry tie Princess whom my
subjects and my Ministers wish me to
wed, even if | do not like her, and |
shall be true to her, though l may
happen to love another lady.
One of the absurd laws in force in
Spain is that no subject may under
any circumstances touch the person
of the King or Queen under severe
penalties. 1t was only by breaking
this law and bravely facing the con
sequences that lacky one day, dur
ing the childho I'D of the King, saved
the boys lite. Alfonso was in a swing,
when he became frightened and was
about to lose his balance. The man
quickly lifted the young monarch
from bis dangerous perch to the
ground. Queen Christina rigidly en-
forced the law by dischareing the
lackey; but she showed her gratitude
by Immediately appointing him to a
higher place in court. - Pittsburg

Notes From Jewellers Circular.

An ingenious device for shaping rib
bon gtrdles is a silver or gilt strip
which clips the material at top and
bottom and is invisible while holding
it in place.
Very handsome is a cross over brace
let, with five round gray pearls set di-
ngonally in the opening.
Berry and leaf designs in variety of
arrangements are shown In strawberry
Bhortcake servers and other f1atware.
Pretty bonbon dishes and cut glass
berry dishes have two or three loop
Landles. A six handled fruit dish Of
Irish silver is also shown.
The folding locket is a little novelty
to be worn as a chatelaine charm. 1t
opens as a straight frame for six
''photos" and folds into a perfectly
found ball Of bright or yellow gold. A
pretty oblong card case of bright gold
has dainty chain attached.
The new cigar shield, which permits
gmoking in automobiles while at
high rate of speed. is a short tube
woven of the finest gold wire and set
in gold frame with a spring for
fastening at the top. AS the name in
dicates, it is designed to protect the
cigar from the wind while speeding
