SOUL MIRRORED IN FICTION.

NEW BOOK BY EX-CROWN 111SCEFA OF SAXONY.

4

The ex-Crown Princess Louien of Saxony, formerly Signora Tocolli, who has now re- sumed her title of Countess Montignoso, is abortly publishing another volume of auto. bicgraphy. It is really for press, but the royal authoress has not yet struck upon a title which satisfies her.

"The book is still my own story," she confided the other day to an Italian writer, Paolo Roni, "but differant from the last It is a revelation of my own soul in the guise of fiction. In my new book I describe Italy's beauties athwart my own personal impressions. Very strange ones they are, -as you will agres when you read them. I'm such a funny person; and, do you know, I don't yet known myself woll ?

"I am impulsive, 'tis true, but I'm also capricious. I never repent. And so my life in very varied, and for me at least, so worth while living.. Pre bens unfortunate, don't you know, People sccuse me of being But I shilty in my lovea; that's true. should have been otherwise had I encounter- ed a strong man of iron will who knew how to dominate me. Alas! I have come “acroes only" vulgar, bourgeois weaklings. That's the why and the wherefore of my favorish guest after the happiness to which I too have a right."

"I," added the princess with a sigh, those who sought my acquaintance and friendship had put it eat of their minds that I was Princess of Exxony, and treated we simply as a woman; then, perhaps, I too should have enjoyed my good share in life and in love. As things are, I travel and travel in a frenzy to distract myself; and my greatest horror in life is leat I should bocomo plebeian."2

Mr. Frank Richardson, of whisker famo, told an interviewer yesterday: * I had a cousin in the service during the Boar war, and he grow moustaches with A very natty goaton. He was haulsä up before his commanding officer and told tant the fungus must be removed. He mede a most infortunate dataco, saying: Lerd Boberta waar ons. The answer Was You're not Lord Roberts, and, ce scurse, bo went, an the fittings had to go I think he saved them up and gave them to his fiancee when he go
