ALEXANDRA AT HOME.
Simple Everyday Life of tho Queen Of
EngIand-A Great Letter Writer.

Simple Everyday Life of tho Queen Of
EnsIand-A Great Letter Writer.
Few people can realize the compar-
alive simplicity of the everyday life
Of Queen Alexandra, especially when
in Scotland or at Sandringham. While
in Norfolk the queen spends much Of
her time in the open air, walking driv-
ing and doing short expeditions in her
motor car.
After breakfast she and one or more
Of the several ladies who may be stay
ing in the house make an expedition
to kennels, stables and poultry yard
to feed and interview the favorite
dogs, horses and poultry of the estab-
lishment. In the afternoon a drive is
arranged, and the evenings pass cheer
lily with music, cards and conversation.
Dinner at Sandringham is always at
S:45.
1t may be mentioned, says Town and
Country, that the royal servants liv-
cries have a quaint old world appear
ance and are different in cut to those
seen elsewhere. The coats are scar
let, made in the swallowtail style, with
dark blue waistcoats edged by narrow
gold braid. The men wear no collars,
but have gold stocks, and white satin
breeches and white silk stockings COM
plete their stately costume. All the
royal menservants are over six feet in
height.
The queen Is an indefatigable letter
writer. She has been known to write
as many as forty letters in one day
with her own hand, and Miss Knollys,
her lady in waiting, often would get
through a hundred, all written under
the queens personal supervision.
Queen Alexandra's note paper is
cream colored and rather rough, with
the royal crown and address in dark
blue and of the simplest design.
During the shooting season the queen
sends a great deal of game to her own
particular friends, and the hampers
are labeled with the queens compli-
ments" At Christmas time she often
presents her intimates with a signed
photograph Of herself in silver frame.
Queen Alexandra is a keen photogra-
pher and has transferred some of her
photographs On to china.
