GROWN PRINCESS OF RoUMANIA

CROWN PRINCESS OF ROUMANIA.

critics ARE kind in their comment on

late Duke of Edinburgh. 1t is in Ger
man and published in Munich.
The Princess is following in the
steps of her famous mother-inlaw, and
many of the critics profess to see the
hand of Carmen Sylvia in the 1ines. 1t
is more probable, that the daughter
in-law has imbibed the mothers spir-
it. Carmen Sylvia is nearly blind

The volume is illustrated by the
