QUEEN MARY.
AN APPRECIATION. In an article which we published a few days age from the pin of one who has known the King and Queen for many years allusion was crowned the union of our beloved Soveralga and his grasions Consort. His Majesty himself, in the first public utteraneo made by him after his accession, referred in touching words to the assistance which ho rooolves from the Queen. I am encouraged," he said, "by the knowledge that I have in my dear wife one who will be a constant helpmate in every endeavour for our people's good. It is, indeed, a matter for angratulation to sil King George's subjects, in whatever part of his world-wide dominions their lot may
be cast, that their Ruler's Queen should be so eminently Etted by character, education, and natural aptitude to support him in the exnited station to which he has been callad.
Time flies so rapidly that to many who read these lines it must seem, on looking backward, but a short time age since Queen Mary, then affectionately known as Princess May, made her first appearance in public by the side of her dently loved mother, Princess Mary, Duchess of Teck. One cannot imaging a more inestim able influence than the example of so admirable
Har care for the old may be illustrated by . single example. While still at White Lodge she concerned herself with the welfare of a number of old women in the east-end of London. There was, on the Duke of Cam bridge's estate it. Coombe, s kooper's cottage of which the Duchess of Taak obtained two persons, and it was the Princess' praction to invite certain deserving old women to stay at the cottage for a fortnight at a time dur- ing the summer months. She need constantly to go over to the cottage to visit them, to minister to their simple nede, and to obeer them by her bright and sympathetle nature. Such things as theo are not spectacular, Imt they remain in the sdomory of who know of them, and they account iu some measure for the love which the Queen inspires in all who come into personal relations with her..
As Lady Grand President of the League of Moxey the Quen has performed datios of a kind particularly congenial to her nature; and all those who have attended the annual garden parties gizon to the Lagus at Marlborough House have noted the genuine pleasure which her Majesty has taken in promoting the welfare of that excellent organization.
Reference has already been made to the desire of the Duchess of Tack to promote British industries. This was but one side of that patriotic spirit which it was ever her

The ing labours in the cause of the poor and suffor-lesson was not lost on them, and the Queen ing the Duchess of Teek won the lasting reizes ovory opportunity of ineuloating it both affection of multitudes to whom she was never in her own family and in others. This is personally known and who had no means of evident from the dep interest which her knowing with what wisdom she ordered her Majesty takes in everything tending to promote own household, with what solicitude sho watch patriotism among the young.

lads' brigades, and so forth. Her sympathies various developments in this country, and have woro at once enlisted in the movement and its continued strongly with it over since.
The Duchess found her reward in the love of her children for their parents and for one another. A singularly united family, and one, moreover, taught from the earliest days that a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possesions, sister and brothers grew up to or enjoy simple, wholesome pleasures, to make their own amusements, enter into each other's games and sports, and share each other's childish joys and sorrows. The only sister, Princess May was certainly not the less loved on that account, and more than one of those boyish differences which will coour even among the moet davoted of brothers was quickly composed by hor affectionate sisterly intervention. The Dake and Duchess of Teck, believing as they did most thoroughly in the value of home life, were careful over to omit those little family observances which mean solmush to the young. Every birthday, a3 il саше round, was duly marked by some spesial concesion to the honoured child. Thus the fature Queen of England and her brothers were allowed on their birthday to order their own breakfast and to enjoy other little privileges appropriate to their age. The remembrance of these days and many joyous Christmasas spent in the family of circle is still amony their happiest recollections. Brought us strictly, hat without undue restraint, Princess May and her brothers were instructed in all those subjects which are right- Ir regarded as santini. The Duchess Lorrelt undertook the daty of instilling into the minds of her girl and boys the knowledge of Divine trull and of Christion precept ard example The influence of these maternal leesons has beer lasting, and hearing fruit to-day in the Queen's home life. Among the most sacred memories of those early days the Queen and hor brothers recall the peaceful Sunday evenings at White Lodge, where grouped round their mother, they joined in singing some of ber favourite hymns. The Duchess of Teck was an excellent musician, and the possessor of a yo- Barkably flue voice, which was never heard to greater advantage than in these intimate family
reuniona.
The visits of the Duke and Duchess of Corn wall to the Dachy afforded sufficient evidence of with that part of the kingdom as circumstances. their desire to become as closely acquainted would allow; while their solicitude for the welfare of their tenants on the estates of the Duchy in London is known to all who have taken the trouble to become acquainted with the farta. The Queen has visited these districts with the King, and has riven practical proofs of her desire in every way to second his Majesty's efforts to provide better dwellings and more wholesonte surroundings for the poor who live in them.
MARRIED LIFE.
The Duchess of Teck consistently impressed upon her daughter the importance of mareful and constant supervision of the home, It was under her judicious guidance that Queen Mary became, as she has proved to be since her marriage, an excellent administrator of her own household affairs. She has never regarded as derogatory, nor has she ever been so pre occupied with affairs of lees importance as to relegate to servants or housekeepers, the duties which it becomes the lady of the house to per-
form.
In her life since her marriago the Queen has been greatly blessed. The ex bright and healthy children who have been born to the King and Queen are the joy of their parents, whose greatest happiness has been found in their midst. As Prince of Wales the King had many claims upon his attention, and he was never so pleased as when, being free for the time from his multifarions engagements, he was able to spend a quiet evening at home surrounded by his wife end family. On these occasions father, mother, the home as if Thrones and Principalities had and children entered together into the joys of for his subjects to poop through the walls of no existence for them.
If it had been possible Marlborough House but a day or two before the fatul illness of King Edward, they would have seen the Prince of Wales, our pressut Sovereign, engaged in a game of squash racquets with one of his sons.
Princess May was taught mucio es a girl, and became very proficient. She had a sweet though not a powerful soprano voice, and often eaug in the drawing-room at White Lodge, sometimes

A great inherited love of nature found expression in the pleasure which she took in sketching fo water colours, a parguit to which she was do". vated, more especially during the time of her family's residence in Florence. Many of the charming landscapos surrounding that beauti ful city, where some of the happiest days of her girlhood were passed, found a plucy in her sketel book. It was in Florence, too, that the Quesa acquired proficiency in Italian, as she had ad- ready done in French and Germaa Her Majesty is, indeed, an excellent linguist and converses fuently in all these tongues. After a year and a half, most of which was spent at the Villa Cedri in Florence, Princess May returned in 1885, who she was 18, with the rest of the family to England, and again found herself in her old home at White Lodge. HOME LIFE AND INTERESTS.
From this time onwards the Queen's life bas baan an,exceedingly full one. The Duchess, the mother, was one of the most energetic of wo men, always busy in her home or in the prose ention of some work of usefulness or charity. As soon as her daughter was of an age to be as gcointed with her in these occupations she be- come her mother's companion and confidant. The large corespondence which the Duchess multifarious interests necessitated was in part undertaken by the Prinotes. The Dochess of Took was deeply interested, during the last years of-her-life in the revival of the English silk- ̈ weaving industry, and did much, with the assist. ance of the late Sir Thomas Wardle, to bring before the public the claims of our own pro- ductions. She was devoted also to the Neadle work Guild, and, with her daughter, took in- Saite pains over the examination of the bundles of needlework rent in by this socisty. And here it may be said the Queen, who is herself an accomplished na dlewoman, has always shown A high appreciation of needlework in all its branches, and her indusuce and example cannot fall to do much to maintain among her women subjects the prestige of this essentially feminise
art.
The public will never know how much of her time Princess May devoted to Charity in vari- aus forms. Here again she was following in hor mather's footsteps, for the Duchess of Teok was one of the first of the ladies of ex- alted rank to abow a personal interest in the poor and suffering, and to go into the East-end for the purpose of trying at least to mitigate some of the bardship of that proverty-stricken district. The young and the old in partionlar have always been the objects of the Queen's special solicitude. Years ago, long before the many funds for sending children to the sea side and the country had reached their present development, her Majesty was active in promot ing this movement.

Mr. CLINT G. FORD, who has been identified with the very foremost dramatic attractions, including Cillet's "Secret Service Co.," "David Haram," "The Clansman," etc., has this to say of Newbro's Herpicide:-
For years I was annoyed with dandruff and itching of the scalp, all due to my twenty years of theatrical life with its incumbent make-ap" and wig wearing. At times the itching of the scalp was intense, All remedics failed me until I tried Herbicide, and I soon found that it was giving wonderful results. The itching and also the dandraft entirely eased and my hair resumed its natural life and vigour.
There is no question in my mind about the reality of the dandruff gem, and I unhesitatingly recommend Herpicide to my friouds in the profession."

Extravagant claims for toilet remedies do not influence theatrical people, bocause long experience enables them to discriminato in- telligently. They demand merit and will rarely use a preparation that is not actually worth as much or more than it costs in dollars and cants.
Herpicide kills the dandruff germa and by actual test done more good than all other hair remedies combined. This accounts for its popularity in theatrical circles.
