Queen of Italy.

Queen Helena of Italy. who won
universal praise by the promptness and
generosity with which she responded to
the call for help from the earthquake
sufferers of Sicily and Calabria. was
born Jan. s, 1873, the third of seven
daughters of Prince Nicholas of Mon
tenegro She received a liberal educa-
ton in her girlhood and was known
as the most beautiful princess Of all
Europe. Victor Emmanuel Of Italy
was two years wooing her, and their
marriage was celebrated in the spring
of 1897 Upon the birth of their first
child the queen gave a cradle or $40
in money to every babe born that day
in Rome and Naples, the two principal
cities of her husbands kingdom. The
queens love of children is a popular
tradition in Italy. Essentially a won
anly woman, she is perhaps the most
attractive and unassuming royal per-
sonage of the day and certainly she Is
the most beloved and admired woman
in the kingdom of Italy. She cannot
be reproached with bourgeois tastes
however, for when the occasion arises
she presents a bearing not to be ex-
celled in the most fastidious courts
and 1t has been said that she surpasses
in majesty of carriage any other sover-
/ eign in Europe.

MARSHAL.S BATON.

Garfield said he felt like taking of
his hat to every poor newsboy he met
because of the possibilities under his
ragged jacket.
And Napoleon said there was a mar
shals baton In the knapsack Of every
private soldier in bis armies.
Whether Napoleon believed what he
said or was speaking for a purpose we
may not know, but a recent writer
tells of two potentially great men who
did carry knapsacks In the emporer's
army.
One of these veterans was named
Pasteur, who, after the battle of Wa
terloo, returned to his trade as a tan
ner Denied the advantages of an edu-
cation, he determined that his son
should have his chance. He worked
far into the night in order to send the
boy to school.
That son was Louis PaSteur, the
greatest chemist and psychologist of
modern times.
The veteran Pasteur had more than
a marshars baton in his knapsack.
1noTe WAS dQOIu0E.
Napoleon died in a house on the
island OF ST. Helena that was infested
with rats. To the everlasting shame
Of the allies, be it said, they stopped
to make his last days miserable. Il
was the business Of an Irish soldier
named Sullivan to scare away the rat
while the little Corporal" lay on hi
deathbed.
That Irish soldier was the GRANDPA
Their Of Sir Arthur Sullivan, Whose
music has gladdened more hearts thar

If Sullivan had written nothing bu
1.-THE Lost Chord" he would hav,
soothed more souls Of men than Napo
leon sent to their last account.
Napoleon STROBE the world like
Colossus. At the age Of twenty six b

In Napoleon's army were men poten
TALLY greater than he.
