History relates that when the ques tion of a bride for her eldest son was discussed, Queen Victoria at first fa vored the Princess Alexandrina, of Prussia, who was prominently men tioned together with the Danish prin cess as a possible bride for the Prince of Wales. Once under the charm of Alexandra's presence, however, Victo ria's prejudice in favor of the Prussian lady quickly gave way and her eager ness for the marriage was almost as great as that of her son. Though the long stretch of years that the Princess of Wales has been her daughter-in-law this afiectionate interest has grown and strengthened. With it, too, has come the most implicit faith and trust in Alexandra's tactful ability to do the right thing at all times in small affairs as well as in the many public ceremonies that the late Queen more and more frequently relegated to her accredited substitute. One phase of this confidence will be specially appreciated by women. Al exandria's taste in dress was quickly discovered and accepted, not only by her mother-in-law, but by her hus band's sisters as well. She possesses indeed, not only taste, but personal skill in bringing about desired effects. This was notably true in millinery, and Victoria not in frequently availed her self of Alexandra's fingers. More than once the Princess- of Wales was sent for in haste while Her Majesty was in the hands of her dressers, to give a becoming or more splendid touch to some bonnet that did not at all suit the Queen. The appeal was never made in vain, and the confident air withw hich the- Empress of India would don her head-gear after Alex andra had revised it was amusing as it was entirely femine. Riches of the King'i Wine Vault. New York Herald. Even the wines in Buckingham and Windsor palaces are in course of be ing ovrhauled. Few persons may imagine what immense stocks of wine are lying hidden beneath both build ings. Probably nobobdy even yet knows not even the king himself, what these cellars contain, though it will soon now be revealed. These wines have beeacumulati- - "for 7eST"s' even" from the time when Queen Victoria came to the throne, and have been constantly added to since In the old sherry drinking days large quantities of that wine were purchased and stowed away. WThen sherry went out and whiskey came in the sherry bins remained untouched. In that con dition they have now been found. Of hocks, moselles and champagnes there have beeu found a great abundance. The late Prince Consort waj particu- . larlv fond of these first named wines. He acquired some very tine vintages. These have beeen used lately only in the shape of hock and moselle cups at the royal gorden parties and at State ball and concerts. The Big Potato Patch of the World. Victoria Island, about 20 miles west of Stockton, Cal., is said.to contain the largest potato patch in the world. The land is "new," having been reclaimed from swamps. This year about 40,000 acres will be planted in potatoes. These potatoes are sent to San Francisco and shipped all over the Pacific country.

UtodDdl lai THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE OF ALL HUMAN DISEASES.

The medical men are as sorely perplexed over the character of this blood poison as ever ; they tell you to take mercury and potash alternately for three years, but the stomach of no human being can stand this treatment long : besides, they do -"yov. j-i.xxa.iiiy t tua UlUUScUlUS WHO HEVc XXlcQ.
