QUEENS OF EUROPE WHO
ARE CIGARETTE SMOKERS
Alexandra of England Striking
Exception to Rule

No fact in modern social life is more
striking than that so many of the
queens Of Europe find as much solace
in tobacco as men DO. says the Gentle
woman. The striking exception to this
rule is Queen Alexandra, who has never
smoked. In this respect she is differ
ent from her sister, the dowager en-
press Of Russia, for the latter smokes
a good many cigarettes a day.
Another queenly smoker is the queen
Of Roumania, the highly accomplished
Carmen sylvia. whose life, devoted to
art, makes her need of the soothing
power OF tobacco as great as that of
any other writer or painter. The queen
mother of Spain. as King Alfonsos
mother is still called. is another smoker
of cigarettes, as is the widowed queen
of Portugal. who, contrary TO what
might be expected in a resident Of
southern Europe. prefers Russian to-
bacco to any other.
