Tall, Fair, Good Humored-Deeply in
Love With Young King.
Princess Ena, who is to marry the
young King of Spain, is described as
very tall, fair, of round face resem-
bling the Duke of Connaught's when
he. was her age, and with the cheeks,
chin, and something in the mouth Of
Queen Victoria when young. She is
good humored, and inclined to hearty
laughter.
When the Princess does not laugh
she does her best to preserve the air
the Queen preserves at drawing
rooms. The eyes are not large nor ex-
pressive, but not dull either, and rath-
er agreeable.
It would be hard to describe the
color of her hair. Autumn foliage as
1t turns from j,usset to pale yellow is
comparable to it. A toison dor, it
might be called, if the tinge of russell
were replaced by gold. But a Paris
ian hairdresser would know how to
cast sunbeams on it,, as Auguste did
on the lively auburn" hair of the En-
press Eugene.
Princess Ena is too much Queen vic
toria's granddaughter not to be as
much in love (and for life) with Al
fonso as he is now with her.
