Florida's shores in pursuit of the

THE "5EAuTYv or MARY, QUEEN
OF SCOTS

There is probably no woman in
history about whom more has been
written than Mary, Queen of Scots
unless it is her rival, Queen Elizabeth,
around whom there clings the aura
OF several mysteries which have
never been definitely solved.
But while the majority of histori-
ans of a later date, as well as many
writer's who were her contempora-
ries, declared that Mary Stuart was
one of the most beautiful of women,
there have been several who have
denied this fact and have even gone
so far as to declare that she was
corss-eyed. Among the latter, the
most prominent is Charlotte M.
Yonge. whose historical romance,
Unknown to History" created little
short of a sensation at the time of it's
publication.
The statement as TO the Queens
eyes was at first denied and then at
tempts were made to secure proofs
of its falsity. All the portraits of
Mary Stuart were carefully examined
and on most of them there was not
shown the indication, of hlemish in
either of the eyes. But c.ose examin-
alton of the portrait by Lodge, said
70 l1n Of fipa
thoritative extant, showed distinct
cast and it was also noted that many
of the pictures of Mary were painted
in profile, much as Kaiser Wilhelm
was always photographed in such
position that his deformed hand did
not appear in the picture.
Also. Leader, in his work MARY,
Queen of Scots in Captivity" describ-
es the famous Shepfield portrait in
the following words:
"The original is painted on an oak
panel and represents the Queen as
anything but the beautiful woman
that tradition has made her. She has
also a very decided cast in her right
eye, which the artist, with some skill,
has rendered less obvious by repre-
senting her as looking toward the
left
Leader likewise calls attention to
the fact that Mary undoubtedly at
tempted to appear as attractive as
possible when sitting for her various

portraits and that practically all of
those which show the full face repre-
sent her as looking at something
either to the right or to the left which
would naturally minimize the effect
of any crossing of the eyes. This
act," says Leader, :" is especially strik-
ing in the picture of Mary as the
Dauphine, made in 1859 and in the
miniature given by James III to his
secretary, James Edgar"
But, whether the famous Queen of
Scots was cross-eyed or not, it is an
historical fact that she was either
very beautiful or else possessed the
her of her beauty. From the time of
her birth on Dec. Z. 1912, to the day
she went to her death at the hands of
the. royal executioner, there were
countless hundreds who fell vic
tim to the charm of this. remarkable
woman. This is proven, not alone by
the eulogies of those who loved her,
but also by the unanimous verdict of
her, enemies. Even Knox referred to
Mary's face as pleasing" which the
authentic portraits of her hardly ever
are, and Elizabeth admitted that there
was more than. a trace of divine
beauty" in her hated rival.
OF all the portraits which have sur
vived the passage of the three and
half centuries since the death of
Mary, only very few justify any
claim whatever to beauty or charm of
feature. But it must be remembered
as Horace Walpole has said: ''The
fa,se portraits of Mary, Queen OF
Scots, are infinite in number, as
might have been expected of wo-
man who was Queen of France,
Dowager of France and Queen of
Scots and around whom there has
been built up an almost inexhaustible
wealth of romance.
OF all the writer's who have studied
the career of Mary, Miss Agnes
Strickland, who spent so much time
in separating the myths surrounding
the Queens of England from the real
history about them, is probably best
able to give an unbiased, as well as
more correct description sof the
Queen of Scots. After studying her
portraits Miss Strickland says: "Fhe
color of her hair and eyes is repre-
sented as rich brown as are her
eyebrows Her complexion is clear
and delicate but somewhat pa,e. Her
nose is straight
But nowhere does Miss Strickland
refer to any defect in Mary's features
and whether or not the woman who
was the most loved Queen of her time
was really cross-eyed seems destined
to remain mystery unless some
hitherto undiscovered portrait or her
is brought to ight.-Brooklyn Eagle

ANCIENT GIANT FROGS

The American Museum of Nat ural History, in New York, recently obtained several fairly complete skeletons of antediluvian frogs from Texas. Some of them, when alive, were 15 feet long.
 To be strictly accurate, they were not true frogs, but froglike crea- lures, which must have. been able to leap 30 or 40 feet at bound. In their day these giant batrachians were exceedingly numerous, judging from the plentiful distribution of their fossilized bones, which, turned up by the blow or otherwise acci- dentally exhumed, frequently excite the wonder and astonishment of set- tiers.

As late as a little more than 30 years ago there were in Paraguay 12 women to every man. Even today there are said to be three women to every man.

PRETTY WAR TIME ROMANCE
How Scottish Soldier, Considering Himself Too Poor to Marry Rich
 Girl, Changed Mind.

A wartime romance was prac- tically, happily ended when an Aber- deen ex-soldier received the follow ing telegram "Silly man, come back at once." That was an answer received by the ex-soldier of Aber- deen from French girl of St. Pol, France, to a letter in which he told her he was poor and could not keep his wartime promise to marry her. The ex-soldier, who was with the Gordon highlanders, after two years in the lines was transferred near St. Pol. He stopped a passing automO- bile for a ride one evening and thereby met a pretty French girl. The friendship grew and developed into love. It was not until after the war that he discovered that she was the daughter of a wealthy retired manufacturer and land owner at Verton in Pas-de-Calais. On leav- ing France last year with the last quota of British troops he wrote letter of farewell from Boulogne, saying that the difference in their social status barred wedding. But she thought differently and sent the above telegram. A few days later she arrived at his home in Aberdeen and treasured him that love alone counted, whereupOn they departed for France together and were mar ried there.
