E Ema-5:. ygmamm QUEEN ALEXANDRA The Sweetness and Charity of England’s Queen' Queen Alexandra, whom Dean Stanley termed “the angel in the palace,"- h_as for over forty years endeared herself to the heartsof the British people Since 1863, when a girl of nineteen in her quaint, little, oldâ€"fashioned poplin, frock and shawl, she landed at Gravesend as the bride of the Prince of Wales. Her early life was passed in extreme plainness and simplicity, because of the smallness of the family income. When she was born, her. father, then; Prince Christian, had no hope of ever being King of Denmark, for his rela- tion to the reigning king was so' distant. He had nothing but his military pay and his wife’s modest dowry. The life in their home, the Yellow Palace sat Copenhagen, was pretentious only in name. The daughters, Alexandra and Dagma, who became Empress of Russia, wore garments of cheap ma- terial cut in the plaincst style. When Alexandra was seventeen, the Prince, of Wales, while speaking to one of his friends, jestingly asked to see the portrait of his sweetheart. _In~ advertently the wrong picture was'handed to the Prince, and instead of the face of his friend’s fiancee, he saw the likeness of “the most beautiful woman in Europe.” The future king of England promptly fell in love with the porâ€" trait which led to his marriage two years later. . The simplicity of her early years has ever clung to the Queen; though " in the court she has not been of it,.and for society she has cared little. Her \ry-.vmm-l..' smug? . . . l. < '- , -‘ w " ' . 2, home circle has been her throne, where she has reigned with sweetness and love. Her kindness, gentleness, tact and generosity have been always at the call of need, and since she went to England has been instrumental in raising or causing to be raised over $250,000,000 for charity. : In one or King Christian’s weekly letters to her, he wrote that an elderly lady-in-waiting to the late Queen of Denmark was dying, and that her one wish. was to speak again to her dear “Princess Alex." At that time it was ' impossible for Alexandra to leave England, but a. long tender message of love and hope spoken by her into a phonograph, was sent by special courier to Copenhagen. Its arrival a. short time before? the aged lady’s death made her last hours serenely happy. ' ‘ At Sandringham she led the life of a. country lady, finding her pleasure in her children, the house, the grounds, her pets, and in ministering acts of mercy. Serene, gracious and beautiful, her life has been 'quiet, though with a. thread of sorrow running through days of seemingly gelden happiness. a Entered according to Act of the Parliament of Canada. in the year 1904. by W. C. Mack. nttho Dcpartmeut of Agriculture. A New Voice Raised in Protest. The Flomilectic Review is one of the staid, orthodox religious reviews of the United States, and probably stands at the head of the list among the clergy of (hepatich as a safe and sane lutcl'pl'OiGI' of modern religious thought. This fact makes its leading editorial in the last number especially significant. Moved by the astounding revelations now be- ing made in the realm ot frenzied fi- nance, the editor says : The issues are complex, but there are outstanding: facts. Ono fact, in partic- ular, has impressed itsolf on the public mind. There is an insane individual- ism in American life today. Men act- as it‘ the accumulation of property were the only end of existence. and as if any means were permissible in realizing that end. In too many cases there is a disâ€" position on the part of' political and so- cial leaders to overlook entirely the sa- oredness of fiduciary responsibilities. Standard Oil maguatos have won power and money by ruthlessly crushing, out rivals, by trampling the law underfoot. and by claiming special privileges. Oi- ficers ol' insurance corporations have betrayed trust funds by using them to promote their own interests. In its fun- damentol aspect. the problem is simply one of old-fashioned selfishnessâ€"that is. the putting of the interests of sch before thc'intorcsts of the common weal. In questions so clearly involving eth- ical issues, the pulpit can remain silent only at its peril. If' it avoids the really vital problems of life, it abandons men when they need it most, and will in its turn be abandoned. It may rightly hesitate to pronounce verdicts on com- plicated industrial questions, but it can- not. renounce its moral mission. It can, and must, insist that the ethical stand- ards which rule private lilo shall rule business life also. One of tho paradoxes of modern soci- ety is bound up in the fact that the col- lective conscience is so much duller than the private conscience. . We' do us nations what wo would never dream of doing as individuals. A marrwho could. . out be induced to kill his neighbor. whatever the provocation, marches out in war time, with a clear ecoscicucc, l4) kill sonic-body‘else’s neighbor. Amen who isu model of the virtues in his do- mestic life, loses every l‘BSll'anlllL' ‘T‘l'll‘ ple in his business dealings Mr. Rock' - t'cller, when questioned recently us' 0 how he reconciled his businesttran m:- lious and his moral principles, i~ l'v-pnl‘l- ed to have made the significant reply: “ The Standard Oil company is not a, philanthropy. It is a business COIIductw ed along the lines that are laid dam; in the business world as being those of' to‘ day.” Invthceo words he exposed the heart of the whole problem. And just because the standards of tho “ business world ” are held to justify disregard l'~r law and the rights of others, it is the imperative duty of the pulpit to indh-t those standards, and to use all its influ- ence to supplant them with other rind ' higher standards. It may be that an investigation of business comlitionswill lead to a realization of the fact that tho dishonesty of our day is inherent in our competitive system. In that event, it will become the duty of the pulpit to ’ accept the new alternative, and to turn men’s faces toward co operative society, which, being itself ethical, will make it possible and practical for each inlividu- alto live out his highest ethical ideals in conformity with the social order. .â€"__._..,¢ w When the ambition of the great bulk of humanity is limited to a job. as it is today, docs n’t it look as though there was something wrong with the system we are living under? It must be very annoying to the .m- callcd aristocrats to know that. they must breathe the same air as we pm- oommon mortals use to keep our plcbes ian bodies in operation. 0 staid“ awn-an...
