(From the French of Francois Coppece.) -
11er Majesty the alueeo of Bohemia-
tbere is always a kingdom of Bohemia
for the convenience of story.tallers-
was travelling most modestly aad strict-
ly 'incognito under the name of the
Countess of the Seven Castles and ac-
companied only by old Baroness de (lea -
gentile', lady of the bedchamber, and
Uen. Liorsehwitz, her gentleman usher.
In spite of the hot stones at her feet
and the furs which were piled around
bee the queen felt cold and, tired of her
novel and the General's continued knit-
ting -for the old soldier was an expert
with wools -she rubbed impatiently at
the frosty window to see what was
happening outside.
It was a sudden and irresistible ca-
price svhich. had started her majesty,
in the very middle of the winter, on a
trip to Paris to see her mother, when
she had only to wait till the spring,
when her mother would have joined her
at home. The queen was accustomed to
consult only her immediate wishes, and
regardless of the thermometer being 10
degrees below zero she shook up the
Baroness from her rheumatism and her
warm seat by the fire and summoned
thegeneral, to his despair, for he was
obliged to leave a magnificent afghan
which he was knitting for his daughter
and take only a modest pair of stock-
ings to beguile the weariness of the jour-
ney.
The travelling had. been hard, for all
Europe was covered with snow, but at
last they were reaching their destina-
tion. They had had a hasty supper at
Macon, and now, although the hot bot-
tles were scarcely woxin and outside the
big flakes were falling fast, the Baroness
and the General, in their corners, dream-
ed contentedly of their arrival in Paris,
'where the old lady would perform a lit-
tle sp'ecial devotion and the whitehaired
soldiers would repair to a certain shop
of wools and yarns where he could
match shades to perfection.
The queen, however, was not so con-
tent. .
Feverish and shivering beneath her
*wonderful cape of blue fox, her head,

tumbling from beneath her dark hat, rest.
ing on her arm, she was staring ahead'
into the blackness of the night, listen-
ing wearily to the rattling and grinding
of wheels on the rails. In memory she
was, living over her short life, the poor
little queen, and she felt that no one
was so unhappy as she. •
Her thoughts went back first to the
time when she had a little Princess,
short and 'plump, with red hands, play-
ing with rer twin sister, the sister
' whom she loved. so dearler and who re-
sembled her so closely that they had
ahvays been obliged to wear different
* colored ribbons to distinguish them. This
was before the insurrection had over-
turned the throne of her parents, and
she had loved the colna peaceful atmos-
phere - of the little Count of Olmutz,
where etiquette was tempered. with
good-natured fellowsbip.
This was during the days of her fa-
ther's reign, good King Louis V., whose
custom it had been to 'walk unescorted
across the royal park, dress'ed in les
court clothes, to the little Chinese pavil-
ion, covered with ivoodbine and honey-
suckle, where he drank his cup of af-
ternoon coffee With his sister and watch-
ed the river, like a necklace of gleaming
silver at the foot of autumn colored
bills.
Then came her marriage and the great
ball of the presentation on the beautiful
July 'evening when, through the open
'windows she had heard the murmur of
the gathering crowd in the brightly il-
luminated gardens. How she had trem-
bled when they had left her alone in the
conservatory with the young king!
She loved him already; she bad loved
lam horn the first instant she had looked
at 'dem as he advanced toward her, so
graceful and proud in his blue uniform,
with the diamond -orders glittering on his
breast. After the first waltz Ottokar had
taken her arm and led her into the long,
cool oorridor, where they 'had sat down
together beneath a spreading ipalm, and
than be bad looked deep into her eyes,
saying softly:
"Princess, will you do me the honor to
become my wife?"
She had. blushed and looked down as
elle replied in a voice whieh she tried in
vain to render natural: "Yes, vire," and
in the ballroom the orebestra breathed
the naes of the wild march, a, pten of
trim -mph ana enthusiasm.
Alas( so brief a period of happiteaa
and then her joy hadefled forever. Then
she learned what everyone else had
known -that Ottokar had no real. rove
for her and that be had deceived her con.
Something seemed to freeze then in her
aeart, something that never anelted even
at the sight of her son, the little Vleelis.

father. Besidea she never had him to
beteelf.
There was always a favorite of ditennae
etk and stately rtursts witlt enorments bon-
nets hovering around the royal cradle,
and Whenever the. queen 'wished to in-
qttire for her son aml embrace itim a lite
tle, she was solemnly informed, "His
Royal Highness has eoughed a little to-
day," or "His Royal Highness; is suffering
freti his teeth." There Was (always a bar.
tier raised between them.
No, she could not Baena it any. longer;
life waa too bitter. She had obtained per.
eniesion from the king to go and see ber
mother, the queen of Moravia, now ex-
iled, in Paris, and there she would cry out
all her grief in hea• mother's arms.
Only she had been obliged to leave ler
baby, for the traditien of the Bohemian
court forbade that tbe Crown Prince
should travel without his father.
Suddenly -the queen awoke &rem her
revery. 'What had happened? For some
moments the train hall been gradually
slowing its speed and now it had stopped
altogether. What did et mean; stopping
here in the open fields, in the middle of
the night?
The baroness and the general aereoke
abruptly, vaguely anxioue. The latter,
catching sight of the lantiern of a guard,
sprang from his eeat and pat his head
out of the door.
"What has happened? What are we
etopPing for?" he demanded.
"Two feet of snow on the track, sir,"
was the :reply. "We are stalled here for
an hour or more; can't pessibly get
ahead as we are."
"What! Will we have to :mend an
hour here in this weather? Why, the
water -bottles are stone cold!"
"Bat what can we do, sir? They have
telegaaphed to Tonnerre for a snow-
plough, But, as I said, we won't enove
from here for an hour."
The inan disappeared with his lantern.
"Gracious! Such it thing is abominable!
Your Majesty will certainly take cold,"
complained the baroness, shivering.
"'I am chilled through now,' replied the
queen.
The general understood that the mo-
ment had come to be heroic. Wrapping
his coat tightly -around him, he jumped
from the compartment, landing in a drift
of snow to bis knees, and once more stop-
ped the maa with the lantern. He spoke
to him in a, whisper.
"But I couldn't do amything if it was
the Grand Mogul himself," replied the
guard. "Still, I think the switch tender
lives somewhere near, and he -ought to
have a fire, if the lady wouldn't mind
walking a stop or two. Here Sabatier!"
A second lantern approached.
"Go and see if the switch teuder has a
Sire in his house."
Fortunately, he did have. The gen-
eral was more delighted than if he bad
won a battle or finished the last strip Of
his famous afghan.
He returned to the compartment, made
known. the result of his search, and a mo-
ment later the three travellers, stamping
their feet to get off the snow that, had
,aeolealiae

never was -a good Woman. But pardon,

No one ever knew wbat the young
Queen of Bohemia. Wait tbinking about
on that wittier night, when for nearly ar.
hour, she rocked the cradle of the switea
tender's daughter. At last, when the
door opened and the guard came to say
that the train was once more ready to
start, her majesty laid her pocketbook,
full of gold pietas in one corner of the
wicker ,cradle, and. beside them a bullet)
of violets from her belt.
The General had barely time to match
his wools when they finally arrived in
Paris, for scarcely had they reached
there when, the queen turned around
and went home. After this elm rarely
went away again, but spent all her time
devoting herself to ber son's education.

Mrs. James Kinsella, of this place sends
a message that tells of a cure as silent
as their suffering. As the result of her
own experience, Mrs. Kinsella, says,
"Take Dodd's Kidney Pills."
"When I sent for Dodd's Kidney
Pills," Mrs. Kinsella says, in relating
that experience, "I had. a, pain in my
right hip and in the small of the back.
I was swollen all down the right side of
the abdomen and had to pass water ev-
ery fifteen minutes in a burning, itch-
ing sort of way. I could not sleep at
nights and was obliged to sit in a chair
for two summers.

Kidney Pills 1 felt much better so I got
more. They have done me a. world of
good, and I have never slept in a chair
since."
