tho only daughter of tho duko and ducheusi
of Kent and granddaughter of George III,
then king of Knglan.l, nnd nleco of tho
then prlnco of Wales, iiftcrwnrd King Wil
liam III. Tho childhood training of the
royal Infant was looked ufter In tho most
careful manner, though there wns little
thought nt that tlmo that thu baby girl
twquld over bo called uion to rule ovejr
tho mU'lo'ns nf subjects or the Iirltlsh cm''

duchess of Coburg, nlso grandmother of
tho Prlnco Albert who wns to bo prlnco
consort of Kugluud'B queen.
Uenreil In Moipllelty.
Tho duko of Kent, who was the fourth of
seven fllsHolutn nous born to King George
III. died when Victoria wns yet nn Infant,
lenving behind him an enormous Indebted
ness. This was duo not only to his ex
travagant way, of living, hut also to tho
fact that )iis 'royiil;'fpflir 'adopted' tho
utmost parsimony In dealing with him. At
ouu tlmo tho duko was rent abroad with nn
nllowanco of 2 a week and on another
occasion all his' traveling expenses were put
Into the lmiidK of tho-captain on whose
ship ho sailed. It 'was this ntulo of affairs
that caused tho widowed duchess to live
with groat simplicity a' mode of ltfo In
deed that iloubtjess had a great deal to do
with tho sterling elinracter of Victoria
when she ascended the throne.
To wise hands wns Intrusted tho enro of
the royal Infant. Healthful outdoor exer
cise, plain nnd wholesome food and the ut
most regulnrlty ond punctuality wore tho
order of tho day. Tho Idea that not only
her own tlmo, but tbnt of others os well,
was voluablu was fostered In Victoria's
mind. Tho greatest paro was -taken to
guard ngnlnst vnnltyiind lovo of display or
powor, and It was not until sho was 12
years of ago that she.. wns Informed of her
possible future. It Is told Qf her by tho
Ilaroness Lehzen thnt on receiving this In
formation, "tho princess', having lifted the
fnrcllugur of her right hand whllo sho
spoke, gave mo tho Uttlo'duuid, saying: 'I
will bo. good. I understnnil now why you
Imvo urged me so much to loam even Latin,
I understand nil butter now-, I will he
good.' "

Victoria onmo of age on May 24, 1837, and
on Juno 20, less than n .month later, sho
wns declared queen o'f England, William III
having just died. It wasiin tho middle of
tho night that the young girl was notified
thnt sho had beepmaquqeu of Great Drltaln
and sovereign of nn cmplro so vaBt that on
It the sun nuver sets. Thu messengers who
convoyed to her tho news ot her accession
to tho throne wero tho archbishop of Can
terhury, tho lord chamberlain and Sir
Henry Hnlford. Thoy experienced a good
deal of dlfllculty lit obtaining admission, as
tho ontlro palace at Kensington, whoro tho
young princess resided, wns wrapped In
deep slumber. Having at length mado their
way to tho apartment adjoining her bed
room, they caused her to be sumtnuncd. A
few seconds Inter sho appeared, attired In
a looso white dressing gown nnd shawl, her
long hulr fulling over her shoulders nnd her
barn feet In slippers,
On being Informed of her new dignity she
burst Into tears and then, nddresslng her
fcelf to tho archbishop, cxclulmed, "I beg
your grace to pray for mot" Tho whole
party, consisting of tho llttlo queen, tho
prelate, the lord chamberlain and tho lato
kliiR's physician, Sir Henry Halford, then
knelt, and there, ln tho mlddlo of tho night
offered up prayer to heaven thnt sho might
bo strengthened from nbovo and guided to
tho blessing of tho people.
(irent Scene at Coronation
Victoria wns from tho first Idolized by
tho English people. Her youth appealed
to their sympathies and her good sense to
their respect. Sho becamo a sort of na
tlnnnl pot, yet, withal, she was admired fot
her wisdom, her rectltudo and her firmness
Grovlllo speaks with somewhat of regret o
tho last mentioned characteristic, evidently
holding that tho ordinary Impulsiveness and
perhaps even tho mistakes ot youth would
hnvo been moro chnrmlng. Tho glories
nnd splendors that nttqnded her coronation

And now comes the relsn of Kdward VII.
Almost 350 years have passed since nn
Edward sat on tho throne and the death
of Queen Victoria brings another Into
power. Albert Edward, the prince of Wales,
and the future king of England Is a popu
lar man, and his wife, the daughter of the
king of Denmark stands equally well In the
favor of the public. Ho Is a man with a
round education, his book learning having
been supplemented by extensive travel.
The years of his life, slnco he grew to man
hood, have been crowded full with official
and social duties. Ho Is a typical English'
man. though he has shown great frtendll-
ness toward tho Americans, and both the
pr(nco nnd the princess have shown a fond

tho line of the royal procession brought a
high premium. Ily dark on the preced
ing day tho people began to gather.
At daybreak of thu 2Stli tho popu
lar enthusiasm had reached n high
pitch. Tho procession outdid anything of
the kind that had beforo been witnessed In
roynl carriages, each containing two women
nnd two gentlemen, nnd each drawn by six
horpes. Then camo tho queen's Mate coach,
drawn by eight erenm-colorcd horses nnd
attended by a yeoman nt each wheel nnd n
footman at ench door. The coronation It
self was held In tho vast building always
used for tho imposing ceremonies of English
royalty Westminster abbey. Victoria's
train of royal crimson velvet nnd ermine
was borno by eight young women of noblo
birth. Cannons boomed, trumpets sounded
and men nnd women cheered outside tho
building, nnd from every part of tho nacrc.nl
edlflco were heard enthusiastic cries of
"God Have tho queen!" lints and handker
chiefs were waved aloft, peers and peeresses
put on their coronets and blshojis donned
their caps. Tho guests Included olher sov
ereigns, and they yielded to no ono In the
enthusiasm of tho moment.
Tho "enthronement" wns n singular por
tion of tho ceremony. The young sovereign
was lifted bodily Into tho royal seat, being
surrounded by nrchblshops, bishops and
peers. His grnco of Canterbury knelt nnd
did homnge for himself and other spiritual
lonlB, and all kissed the queen's hand. Her
unclcH, tho dukes of Sussex and Cambridge
removed their coronets nnd did homago
with set and elnborato speech. Thoy
touched tho crown upon her head, kissed
er left cheek and then retired. Tho peers
lso touched her crown, but kissed her
hands.
Tho sixtieth anniversary of her corona
Hon wns celebrated ln even n more elnbo
rnto manner, being marked by not only
great display of soldiery nnd remnrknblo
testimonials of tho loyalty nnd esteem of
er subjects, but also by tho greatest dls
lay of naval force thnt the world has ever
seen. It wns ono of tho great events of
tho contury nnd never In tho world's history
ns a sovereign received a greater testi
mony of tho loyalty nnd esteem of sub
jects.
.llnrrlnRP for I.ove.
Queens enjoy a privilege which Is with
held, savo In leap year, from women occu
pying a less nugust position In tho social
scale namely, that of themselves maklnc
tho offer of marriage. Instead of waiting to
receive the proposal from their suitors
And It wnB therefore Queen Victoria who
year after her coronation nt Westminster
abbey, on June 28. 1838, Invited her cousin,
rlnco Albert of Saxo-Coburg nnd Gotho, to
hnro his life with her. It Is only stating
ho truth to say of this marrlago, however,
that It was ono that had been agreed upon
for many years, providing Victoria herself
pproved of tho young man. For a tlmo
sho Is recorded ns hnvlng been not well
pleased with him, but there Is no doubt
thnt sho fell In lovo with him beforo tho
union wns proposed by her. Tho nuptials
took plnco on Februnry 10, 1840, nt tho
Chopol Royal, St. James palace. Tho wed
ding breakfast was given nt Uucklng-
hnm palace, and tho honeymoon, which
only lusted threo days, was spent nt Wind
sor castle.
Tho marrlago proved nn exceptionally
hnppy one. Prlnco Albert turned out to bo
an abso'.utely Ideal husband, being u man
of singularly stainless nnd lrreproachablu
chnracter. Queen Victoria's domestic bliss
was absolutely unclouded ns long ns her
husband lived nnd sho vvnH guilty of jlo
exaggeration when sho declared that tho
only sorrow which he had ever caused her
wua when ho died.
I'rrMUIent Grief.
From tho tlmu of her husband's death the
queen was scarcely over seen In public until
the year 1872, when sho proceeded In state,
toguther with tho entire roynl family, to
St. Paul's cathedral to Join In a national
thanksgiving service for thu recovery of thu
prlnco of Wales from tho dangerous Illness
which had brought htm so very near death's
door tho year before. Tho queen and tho
prlnco nnd princess of Wales passed from
Rucktngham palace to St. Paul's nlong
streets literally nltvo with people. Font'
ways, shop windows .and tho very roofs
wero teeming with shouting, hurrahing nnd
enthusiastic crowds nnd the popular display
of loyalty was beyond nil description.
In tho cathedral tho prince sat between
his mother and his wife, the vast fane
thronged to tho utmost with good subject
of the queen, who were anxious to show
how entirely they sympathized with her
Joys as well as with her sorrows. It was a
remarknblo sccno, especially to foreigners,
slnco It furnished evjdenco of tho oxlstonco
of that kind of family feeling that prevails
between tho English roynl houso and tho
people nt large. It Is duo to the exUtenoe
of this sentiment thnt tho queen and her
children go to tho troublo of themselves
notifying ths citizens of London through
tho lord mnyor npd tho remainder of her
peoplo through tho homo secretary of all
domestic events, such as births, marriages
and deaths, that tako placo In their family.
Tho people apprcclato this and take pains
to snow tno extent to which they partlcl
pate In tho Joys and sorrows of their rclgiv
ing house. Thus on the doaths of tho
queen's youngest son, Leopold, duko of Al
bany, ln 1884; of her daughter. Alice, grand
duchess of Hesse. In 1878, and of her grand.
son, duko of Clarence, In January, 1892
many n cabman made a point of wearing n
nit or crape around his hat nnd a crnpo bow-
on nis wnip, whllo tho servants and shop
girls wore black ribbon as a token of
mourning.

On June 20, 1887. tho queen once moro
mado a itnte progress through her great
caplttl to attend a special service at West
mlnlsterabbey In honor of the semi -centennial
anniversary of her accession to tho throne.
Every reigning houso In the world sent
either members of their families or great
dignitaries to represent them at tho
ceremony, and while kings and queens
chatted gayly together In the chancel of
tho nbbey while nwnltlng tho coming of
Queen Victoria, her majesty no longer the
bonny, fresh .ind heal.hy-chceked English
girl of 1S37. but a venerable-looking, white
haired old woman was driving up Pic
cadilly, her carriage escorted by the most
brilliant troop of princes, archdukes and
grand dukes thnt had ever been gathered
together for such n purpose.
Seven times during her reign was Queen
Victoria's life attempted, but only on one
occasion, ln Mny, 18W. did her majesty re
celvo nny actual Injury, and that of n mero
transitory character. Her nesallatit on thnt
occasion was a dismissed officer of hussars.
and ho was seized before he had time to ac
complish more than strike her n sharp blow
In the fnco with a stick. The man was
sentenced to seven years' transportation.
Tho first attempt to nssasslnalo her was
made In Juno, 1S10. by a man named Oxford,
who fired two pistol shots at her while sho
was driving up Constitution hill with her
husband. Tho would-bo murderer was de

LONDON, Jan. 22. Henry Labouchere, In

tribute to Queen Victoria, a tribute nil
tho more remarkable because of his demo
cratic Ideas and frank criticisms of royalty.
"Among ult her millions of subjects," ho
will say. "thero aro hut few who will not
mourn for her loss ns for ono of their own
household. Nor will tho mourners b found

without thought of self nnd unrcst-rvedly
dovoted to tho duties ot tho hour. Although
occupying perhaps tho proudest position
over tilled by a woman and never wnntlng
In n certain queenly dignity hor tastes,
habits, demeanor and oven her dress wero
marked by tho rarest simplicity.
"Sho has been Indeed tho mother of her
people nnd as mothor sho will be mourned.
In all the affairs of state sho manifested
tho samo wisdom that Inspired her prlvato
life, not" did her own country Rlono en
Joy tho fruits of her cxpertenco und
sagacity. Through her kindred abroad her
Influenco has been felt ln continental poli

Her sudden nnd lamcntablo break down

Sritaontilile Hint on I'repnrlnn Fond
for thi Uimell.
Tho question of proper feeding In sick
ness Is a most Important ono. Physicians
aro treating many diseases with careful
dlotlng and llttlo or no medication, with
tho most satisfactory results, but thu great
dlfllculty In this method of treatment lies
In tho Inability to secure simple, nutritious
food properly prcpnred. Many of tho best
housowives know llttlo or nothing about tho
preparation of dishes for tho sick.
Under no circumstances can ono venture
to feed nny dish to a sick person without
first consulting tho doctor. This cannot hu
too much emphasized, for often u food which
might bo ot benefit to a person In somo
kinds ot sickness may bo directly injurious
In other cases; ns, for example, well-cooked
rice, which is one of tho most easily dl
gested foods, but must not be given to a
diabetic patient. Usually the physician will
leave n list of foods to bo given tho patient
It ho should not do so, venture on no ex
periments without his order.
A very sick person has need of much nnd
frequent nourishment, becauso ot tho ttssuo
waste caused by tho disease. This wasto
must bo repaired as rapidly as posslblo by
food of proper nature and most careful
preparation. Unfortunately, when tho need
for food la bo great, tho dlgestlvo system
Is In a very fecblo condition nnd no solid
foods can be given. Hero milk Is the stand
by, Tho food Is usually given at frequent
Intervals and In very small quantities, por
haps halt a cupful of nourishment Is given
overy two hours, tho frequency and amount
varying with tho needs of tho patient. If
tho patient tires ot milk, Its tasto may bo
disguised by tho addition of n teaspoonful
of cocoa, caramel, or, tt stimulants are
given, a little wlno or brandy may bo added.
Perhaps thu patlont may bo allowed other
articles of fluid diet, such as beer, chicken,
clam, oyster or mutton broth, eggnog, soft
custard, gruols, ten, coffee or cocoa. Ten
or coffoo aro gonernlly given only an stimu
lants, ns their nutrltlvo value Is very
slight. Except In spoclal cases, tho patient
Is much hotter without cither of theno.
Vniiip of :iokm.
Egg albumen Is most valuable In pro
tractcd fevers and whuro nourishment In a
condensed, readily asslmllntcd form
Is required. Egg albumen must bo
freshly prepared. This may bo dono
ln cither ot the two following
ways: First, to tho whlto of a
very fresh egg add shredded Ice, and beat
to n foam; give from one to three teaspoon
fills at a tlmo to a very sick patient. The
second way Is to beat the egg whlto
slightly, adding to tt n glass of cold water,
flavor with a llttlo lemon Juice. Tho white
ot an egg may also bo glvon ln a glass of
milk, nnd If thoroughly mixed 1M presence
ennnot bo detected by the most sensitive
tasto. Egg Iomonado Is a useful drink In
fovcrs and looks most appetizing with Its
delicate whlto foam on top. To make egg
lemonado, tako tho Julco ot bait a lemon,
ono tnblespoonful ot sugar, and halt n glass
of cold water. Mix thoroughly and add tho
slightly beaten whlto of ono egg, Shako
for several minutes In a Iomonado Bbaker
Eggs may bo given mixed with gruels
or with broths. Sometimes tho wholo egg
Is used, at other times only tho whlto. To
avoid curdling in mixing eggs with hot
fluids, beat tho egg In a bowl, add to it
very slowly, beating constantly, tho hot
liquid.
To Mako Ileef nroth Meat from tho
round Ib best. Wlpo thu meat well with a
cloth dampened ln bolllng-hot water, re
movo all fat and cut tho meat Into very
small pieces; cover with cold water and al
low It to stand for at least half an hour,
until tho water Is qulto red. Then heat
very slowly to tho boiling point and let It
boll for about twenty minutes. Tho heat
Ing to tho boiling point must bo dono very
gradually; It should tako over nn hour.
If any fat remains, removo It by drawing
a pleco of soft brown or whlto paper over
tho aurfaco; this will collect tho molted
fat, do this until overy pnrtlclo of fat
has been taken off. Season carefully with
