Those two rings wore never re moved from her hand and woro bur ied with her. Much treasured, too, was tho brncolot hIio always woro, composed of a numerous array of Htiml! golden hearts, each with a . minute mlnlatnro of ono of her grnndchlldion or greatgrandchildren. Queen Aloxandrn, In addition to a 'Bafoful of dlnmondtf and pearls, owns porno wonderful colorod goms ru bles, sapphires and oinoralds which, however, sho rarely wears. Tho only colorod stones sho really 'likes aio amethysts, nnd theso she has given, nt Christmas nnd on their fotos days, to her frlonds and jela" ties In such numbers, sot In scrtrf phis, banglofl, chnlns, hnt plnB and sunshade tops, that sho has quite popularlzod tho stone, hitherto llttlo valuetl In England. With drosses of her favorite color,, man vo, tho queen always wonrs amothysts.

Tho most splendid Jewels Queon Alexnndrn pobsobhoh aro undoubtedly her poarls. Sho haB ropes and ropes of them; high dog collars nnd pearls sot In trimmings for tho finrsugos of her ball drosses. These havo boon collected r.ud given to hor hy tho czar and her Hlstor, tho downgor om press of lltiBHlu, as.woll as by mom- Iioih of tho English, Danish and Gor man royal rnmllles, many being old holilooms. , Tho queen's pearls aro surpassed only by tho young duchess of Marl borough'H historic collection. This Includes iiomo of tho most Intonating pearls In oxlstonco tho pearls that belonged to tho lll-rated Marie An toinette, which woro bought by Vnn derbllt for his daughter as a mnr rlago gift. Kadi pearl In the young duchoHs' ueclclaco It Ih an Immense ly long one Is valued at 100 A, and sho sometimes wears the ropes wound twice around her neck nnd twice around her waist. I hope I am divulging no state ueerot, nays a writer In tho (lrand Magazine, if I statu that before Queen Alexandra went last season to dlao with tho duchoBS at Sutherland house, the beautiful home of the Marlborough's In Gurzou street, she iiskod her youthful grnro to "put on all hor pearls," Just for once, "for then 1 will wear mine," laughed the queen, "After dinner wo will count which has tho largest number." Ami they did. like two school girls. The duchess was tho winner by two. Tho ilrst' string was tho Ho-culled "Nookluco of tho Virgin of Atnkhav" tho second wns once tho property of tho ox-queen of Naples; tho third wau worn by tho Kmprosu hlugeulo on Htuto occasions. This last string contained tho great pearl found In l'atersou, IS years ago, This pearl, If It had not been somewhat Injured by the ntol lusk being boiled bofoio the shell wau opened, would ho tho finest and and lnrgcnt gem of modern times. Mrs. Maokay Is said to have tho largest number of pearls of uny liv ing woman. There avo almost 1000 of them.

Of sapphlro sots none is so pre cious, olthor In Kuropo or America, as that belonging to tho Orand Duchess Serglus, of Ilussln; no single stono Is bo rich In tho memorios that circle around Is as tho dark sapphire sacred to tho Hohenzollcrns, which has boon in thoir family slnco the tlmo of tho Crusaders. Several ladles, among others tho dowager countess of Dudley, the duchess of Dovonshlro nnd Princess Drulcop Singh havo helped to popu larize tho cmornld, so well does tho stono become them.

Panorama of the Nile. TourlstH woro carried up tho Nile last year us far as Gondokoro, with in 3fi0 mllos of tho bend of tho Nile on tho north shoro of Victoria Nyanza. Tho government of tho AngloI3gyptlau Soudan hns this opened tho Nllo route clear to Ugan da on tho coast of tho lake, and Is now taking stops greatly to Improve nnd quicken this service. Acocrdlng to Mr. Krcshlluld, tho well known mountaineer, ono of tho largest tour ist companies expects soon to sell tickets to Victoria Nyanza by way of the ited sea, returning by the Nllo. Tho heart of tho Itowonzorl moun tain rungo Is about lf0 miles wost of this second largest of frosh wator lakes and tho chief sourco of the Nllo. Mr. Fresh Hold, who returned u whllo ago from Huwonzorl, says ho belloves these mountnliiB will fre quently he visited by tourists In tho coming years, and that from some points of vantage on tho rnugo practically tho wholo region of the N'lle's BourcoB will bo within view. At the font of tho mountains to the south Is Lake Albert Kdward, and !0 miles to tho north Is Albert Ny anza. TJieso three lakes aro tho sources of tho waters that go to form tho upper Whlto Nllo It would, Indeed, he a remarkable panorama. The mountain mass rises from 11,000 to 1 1,000 foot above tho surrounding plateau. Thoso who havo been tliero say that on a cloar morning the two greater -of thoso lakes would ho plainly In view. If vision enn penetrato from any of Iluweuzorl's outlooks to tho con trol regions of Victoria Nyanza, visi tors may seo n water expanse that no one on tho lako Itaolf has over seen, No native pnddlor or llttlo European steamer has ever crossed tho lake. All of them hug tho coasts, and tho central roglous are still a mystery. It will bo nn experience worth having to boo theso sources of tho Nile, which tho world vainly sougth for. centuries, spread out before one's eyes nnd kindling with tho glorious Illumination of tho rising sun. Al most Invariably tho clouds of Huwon zorl veil the vast scene except for an hour or two after dawn, nnd It will doubtless cost more In physical effort to command this view than most folks nro able to pay. Kveu If everything Is provided, aB on tunny Alpine ascents, to make tho Journey up tho slope us safe and comfortable as possible, It will bo n dllllcult climb, ami unless a shelter U built among tho upper snow camp must bo loft lone beforo daylight with lanterns lighting tho way, as used to bo done on Mount Wane. Tho great panorama bids fair to bo reserved for mountaineering athletes until a cog-wheel railroad Is built. New York Sun. They Stand Alone.

Each bottlo of tho abovo .medicines bears upon Its wrapper a bndgo of lion esty In tho full list of Ingredients com posing It printed in plain EnalWi. This frank and open publicity places theso medicines m U cumrall lu than- tclvcii, and is tho best guaranty of their merits. Tho cannot bo classed as patent nor secret medicines for they aro neither bclna of known cmtpoUlon. Dr. Plurco feels that ho can afford to take the allllcted Into his full confidence and lay all tho Ingredients of his medi cines freely beforo them beennso these Ingredients are such as aro endorsed and most strongly praised by scores of tho most eminent medical writers as cures for tho diseases for which theso medi cines aro recommended. Thcreforo, the nflllcU-d do not havo to rely alono upon Dr. Plorco's recommendation as to tho curative vuluo of Ids medicines for cer tain easily recognized diseases. A fflnnco at tho printed formula on each bottlo will show that no alcohol and no harmful or hablt-formlng drugs enter Into Dr. Pierce's medicines, they being wholly compounded of glyceric extracts of tho roots of native', American forest plants.

That Latin America is worthy of our best efforts nt lcgltlmntc ex ploitation Is proved by tho fact that Its totnl forolgn trado, exports and ImportB, amounted In 190G to over $1,700,000,000. Ot this mngnlfl cont totnl $1,000,000,000 wcro sales nnd $700,000,000 purchases. Or tho first totnl tho United Stntcs bought of Latin America $30,000,000, and ot tho second It sold to Lntln Amer ica $189,000,000. Thoro is, there fore n balance ot trado against the United Stntes or approximately $100,000 000. Although these fig ures show that tho United States buys :ir per cent of Latin America's sulos and 'sells in turn to it 27 per cent of Its purchases, such statistics would he misleading If not analyzed. For Instance, this 27 per cont, not largo In Itself, Is mndo up principal ly by the group of countries border ing on tho Caribbean, and among them chiefly by Mexico nnd Cuba. In contrast wo note that Drazll, tho empire republic, with nn urea equal to that of the United States and n population greater than Hint of Mex ico, bought from the United Stntcs only ll per cent of Its Imports; that Argentina, whoso foreign trnde 1b now larger thnn that of either Ja pan or Clilnu, purchased only 11 por cent of her lumports from tho United States; that Chile, which had quad rupled hor commorco In n decado, wanted from us only 9 por cont, and that Uruguay, Parnguoy and nollvla mndo demands of only 0 per cent. Peru, which Is much nearer the United Stntes only ten days rrom Now Orleans took no more than 18 por cont, and Ecundor two days from Panama and eight from Now York, but three weeks from Europe by tho shortest route required only 25 por cont. Leaving out Colombia and Venezuela, with Ceneral Amor Icn nnd Mexico, wo Hud ourselves face to face with tho disappointing truth that the major portion of South Amorlca bought only per cont of Its Imports from us. Wo could easily supply part of tho remaining SO por cent If favorable conditions woro provided. John Barrett In North American Review. The Royal Month noil the Royal DIs. ease.

It Js not so erudite as sorne of the papers on the subject read at the Atlantic City meeting of tho Na tional Municipal league, but It ha.3 a touch of human Interest that makes it Interesting.
