Historians and biographers must study to discover whether she was a factor in the world tragedy—or merely a victim. It is being asserted that she fed the Kaiser's mania for world conquest; that she encouraged it for years as his life ambition; and that she de manded it as a heritage for her son, the Crown Prince. Therefore, she must stand revealed before the penetrating light of historical in vestigation). My long years of intimacy with the Kaiserin failed to create either affection or pity for her. She is one of the most seltisn women I ever met. She is inordinately vain. She has no sympathy for the people; she is an idolater of, wealth and a ty rant of the poor. She hates Amer icans; she tyranizes over her ser vants —and she believes the Hohen zollerns (her children), were or dained by God to rule the world with an iron hand.

Kaiserin Neither Pretty Nor _ Graceful The Empress is not a pretty wo | man; not even among daughters of I Germany is she entitled to that dis tinction. The once awakened girl has developed into a large Frau, strong-limbed square-footed, and broad-shouldered, as we meet them by the hundred in the capital, or in any town in the Fatherland, for that matter. She has small gravish-blue eyes, i with light, scanty lashes and brows I sincerest flattery could not call ! them beautiful, or even pleasing, es i pecially as, for some reason or oth i er, they appear slightly swollen i three days out of four. Her arms | are beautifully modeled, and white ; as alabaster, the hands well taken ' care of, but too large, and given to pufflness, a condition which ton i stant massage forestalls to some ex j tent, but not wholly. | If not under the surveillance of I the multitude, Her Majesty walks I like a knock-kneed person; at all j times she prefers to lean on some | body's arm, or on a piece of furni i ture, which tendency gives one an i idea that her nether limbs are weak j despite theAr superb outward de velopment. That fine figure, so universally ad ; mired, was indeed very far from j being at that time a product of stays I and powder, as some ladies of the 'aristocracy gave out, but a luinin ! otis reality to which the Kaiser was ! strongly attracted. During the first | four or five years of her imperial life, Auguste Victoria might have i adopted Queen Louise's coraetless I costume without fear of offending | the most artistic eye. In the early nineties, however, she became very fat. And alas that van j ity should have induced her to spoil I her figure, and complexion as well, j by submitting to various kinds of ; flesh-reducing treatment, and by using all known sorts of cosmetics, j ,1 dare say some chance observers I will endeavor to correct my esti mate of Her Majesty's feet, but in . doing so these critic's really com-' pliment the royal shoemakers' per- I feet art; there are two of these j functionaires, both native.s of, VI ; enna. As to the shoemakers of the | Fatherland, Her Majesty would no p sooner think of employing any of them than she would eat peas with her knife. While a man's number seven, American measure, might give the Empress supremest comfort, her special artists build for the imperial lady foot-gear intended to defy nor mal' conclusions as to dimensions. Her Majesty pays from a hundred to a hundred and fifty florins for these works of art, which are the only items of toilet she hates to cast off, and, indeed, wears until brushes and creams of all softs .fail to bring back waning luster. They are beautiful to look at (the very envious must admit that), but, oh, the pains they give their vain ownerl Freckles and Ked Nose! The Empress' broad face, though" at times slightly disfigured by freck les, would not be displeasing except for the very red nose, conspicuous whenever she appears in public. And that red nose is only one of the ugly results of feet serewed out of ail original resemblance. I am con vinced of it, because I never saw Her Majesty with a red nose at home, even at periods when she was suffering from a cold. That additional blot appears only when least wanted, at the theater, on the throne, on horseback, though there is really small excuse for wearing the tightest of call them ."Scotch boots'* in com memoration of a pleasant custom I they I had in the land of kilts and bagpipes to promote confessions in criminal proceedings under the long-flowing robe. Still, in mount ing or dismounting, the roval feet might show, and Her Majesty de sires to be on the sufe side with re-! speqj to physical charms and short- I 1 comings. % j To sum up: Her Majesty is a tall I i woman of imposing carriage, with a j | face that is weak rather than in- | tellectual.

Domestic Virtues a Myth As the eighth Henry's daughter posed as the virgin Queen, so docs the Gcrniqn Empress pose as the ideal Hausfrnti; but while the first succeeded only in deluding the un thinking. the present august lady luis tricked the entire civilized world into crediting her with fanciful do mestic virtues. I am told that (for many* years before the war), one could not open I a magazine or a newspaper, printed j either in Europe, America. Asia or j Africa, not to forget Australia, with out encountering some such article I as "The Kaiscrin as a Mother," "The | German Empress Investigating Her ! Kitchen," "August© Victoria Super intending Her Linen Chest." Books j of travel, the A. B. C for the young, ' and religious tracts alike teem with allusions to Her Majesty's facilities in the line of sewing, child-bearing, darning,and plain cooking. As a matter of fact, the Empress 1 has visited the lower regions of her residential castles where the very bad indigestibles that grace the im perial table are prepared, but once in her life, (so the servants tell me), and on that occasion she designed ■to look into the department where [ the linen is kept, but never more. It was a great and wonderful ' event, however, while it lasted, and [ the royal housekeeper, Baronness von Larisch, and her host of white capped and ditto-aproned girls and women probably passed an hour of supreme anxiety lest the great lady should know enough to find fault with things as they were. In this unpleasant anticipation, they were luckily disappointed, however, and aside from the "cheap copy" it made for the press, generally despised but often appealed to by royalty, the visit resulted merely in a single rec ommendation: It was ordered and decreed by Her Imperial and Royal Majesty that thereafter the all-high est table linen be marked in a dif terent-colored thread front the most gracious bedclothes. From time im memorial, at the Prussian Court, table coverings and sheets alike have been adorned with a red crown. The only thing about the house which really interests Her Majesty ! is the daily menu, and that its com position be agreeable to her as well as to the Emperor. To that end the "Speisenfolge" proposed is placed on her dressing table nightly, so she may strike out or add anything she likes. Overbearing to Her Servants But while not a Hausfrau in the accepted sense of the word, Auguste Victoria unfortunately inherited from her mother certain disagree able traits that in a, more or less pronounced degree are found in the majority of German women, quali ties dignified as positive virtues by many, and which poets and like irresponsible persons not unfre quently laud to the skies. Her Majesty is peevish, unjust, and petty in the treatment of her retinue the very best reason why the royal household in the Neues Palais or Schloss is as little free from vexa tions and even domestic brawls as other institutions of the kind, be they extensive or smj)ll, in Berlin, Potsdam, or anywhere in the Fath erland for that matter. Sprung from nonpuiss-ant stock and reared in comparative poverty, Auguste Victoria seems to abhor the very conditions that gave her dis comfort in younger days. In Her Majesty's eyes an untitled servant is of no more consequence than a beggar, and that poverty and uncleanliness are necessarily synony mous terms is one of her fixed ideas. In the majority of Bei'lin house holds those obligato squabbles be gin in the bright and early morn ing and the Empress would not be; German unless she foMowed that fashion and kept up a continuous performance till night.

It was on such occasion that the Princess of Menlningen's sweeping criticism of her sister-in-law, viz.. that "Dona" (that is Her Majesty's pet name in the family) "Is the most arrogant and pretentious Prin cess on any throne in Christendom," is borne out in its most disagreeable aspects. A peep into the Empressf apartments on ulipost any morning of the year will explain. ■ Records of Weakness nr.d Miilice Usually Jlie day's scolding and annoyance is ushered in by the find ing of certain memoranda on slips of paper, or visiting cards, which the chamber-women discover when making up the Empress' bed. There are strict orders that these notes must be placed on Her Majesty's toilet table without delay, for they are in the all-highest hand writing and pencilled to assist the royal memory. 1 shudder when I think what a mercenary in the court marshal's of fice could do with some of these brief feuilletons— records of imper ial weakness and malice. How the autograph fiends would fight and bid for them at Christy's! "Fifty guineas for Her Majesty's complaint as to 'His Majesty's ill temper on the eve of Mismarck's dismissal.' " ' "One hundred guineas for 'the Kaiser's remarks on the Duchess of Aosta in his sleep,' taken down ver batim by his august spouse,- who sat up in bed horrified." For such unci similar _ affairs those tell-tale memos" register in springy, excited monosyllables and unsteady letters —once in a while. And then, of course, they were written down to aid Her Majesty in making: "copy" for her diary; not at all were they intended for the court marshal's eyes, but they come to him just the same, in waste baskets, crumpled and torn, or riding upon the sharp tongues of his numerous spies and flatterers. The notes indited for that functionary's benefit usually specify some misconduct on a ser vants part in this style: "Spoon tasted of silver powder," or "Xolte appeared to hate been drinking last night." Xolte was one of Her Mapestv's Kammerdiener tvalet de chambre), and a man more sober and indus trious one cannot find among a thou sand of his class. Still, he may un wittingly have given offense to the all-exacting royal lady, and, think ing it over in bed, while perhaps waiting for her husband to come come, she put down the first accusa tion that occurred to_her. After she herself got through scolding poor Xolte, he was to be bulbed, in addition, by his superior officer Boron von Lyncker.
