Queen Victorio's Rule
OUer Royal Household

Princess Catherine Radziwlll in a
book, "Those Remember" tells many
stories of royalty.
Queen Victoria, says the princess,
was a martinez politically as well as
socially. The prince of Wales
(King Edward) especially stood in
awe of his parent, and when almost an
old man himself he hardly ever opened
his mouth In her presence.
Her eldest daughter, the late EN-
press Frederick of Germany, used to
say that whenever she was summoned
to the queens presence she first asked
for a glass of water so as to conquer
her emotion"
Queen Victoria, adds the princess,
never appeared at state concerts or
balls, but sometimes she would con-
descend to show herself at garden
party given by the prince and princess
of Wales at Marlborough house.
She used to arrive late and was driv-
en- round the grounds In little pony
carriage, beside which her children
dutifully walked, talking with her the
whole OF the time, for Queen Victoria
was not above bit Of gossip, and
liked from time to time to be told the
news Of the day, especially II It dealt
with the marriage OF somebody she
knew or the love affairs of some one
she had met.

not die; he must, on the contrary, live

Pearls in Abundance
in Scottish Streams

1t is not commonly known that the
Scotch River Tay and It's tributaries
provide rich harvest of pearls which
are sold up to high as $50 each. Any
one can go pearl-hshing In the Tay,
and all have equal chances. The pro.
fessional pearl-fsher has box-shaped
boat in which he floats downwards
with the stream, aSd armed with his
simple lens-a piece of glass substl-
tuted for the original bottom of tin
can-which when immersed, enables
him to see clearly through the surface
agitations to the pebbly bottom, and
long stick with V-shaped notch at
the end, grabs all the shells he sees
as he lazily drifts past, and ut the end
OF day his spoil Is by no means
small. But the amateur dispenses with
all encumbrances except the notched
stick. With It he simply wades into
the shadows and gathers In all the
shells he sees within reach The shells
are of various sizes from an inch up
to six inches in length, and only one
in perhaps ten contains peurl of
value, although many may carry freak
pearls, black or deformed ones, which
may be quite saleable. A ready mar
ket for the pearls obtained Is at the
nearest jewelers. shop, but the profess
sional pearler prefers to deal private
ly and directly with the tourists who
frequent this district, and who prob
ably thus become possessors of a pearl
at fraction of Its real commercial
value.
