MS SHE * PRINCESS ? Qeath of Mme- Kent Recalls the Story of Her Life- CLAIMED TO HAVE BEEN THE First-Born Daughter of V.ctoria- Daughters Exchanged at Time of Baptism. Sophia Adelaide, who astounded England a few years ago by assert ing that she was the daughter of prince Albert and Queen Victoria, j s dead, says a late New York Globe-Democrat special. She passed away yesterday at the German hospital. Inanition and the hot weather were the con tributing causes of death. The life story of this woman who claimed the birthright of a princess to the throne of great Britain reads like a bit of romance from the lives of kings and the royal houses of ancient days. Briefly, the story is of two chil dren who were changed at christen ing, one of them being the princess royal, Sophia Adelaide, the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria and the Prince Consort, and the other child of the Prince Consort by a morganatic marriage with a lady of the court of Saxe-Coburg. Prince Albert, so the story goes, was deeply enamored of a beauti ful woman of the court, and was united to her in a left hand marri age before his fateful meeting with Victoria and her choice of him for her consort. When this royal fa vor came to him, of course it was not to be put aside. It was not thought that the morganatic mar liage would cut any great figure, but when the left-handed wife learned that her husband was about to contract a marriage with the youthful queen, she threatened to make public the story of the previous marriage, which had hitherto been kept secret from all excepting two members of the prince’s family. It was feared that the queen, with her well known religious principles and her firm adherence to duty as she saw it, would withdraw her proposal to Prince Albert, did she learn of this marriage. The wife was firm in her determination, and finally yielded only upon one condition: That her child should be substitu ted for the firstborn of the royal marriage, and should eventually cime to the throne of England. Prince Albert, seeing no other way out of the difficulty, consented, and the story of his marriage with Oueen Victoria is known to all the world. In the meantime, a relative of Prince Albert’s wedded his forsak en wife. The two children were born very nearly at the same time, there being but a slight difference in their ages, and both were little girls. KXCHANGE OK BABIES. With the christening of the little princess royal came the supreme moment. It was then that the ex change of babies was made, and it was the little daughter of Prince Albert and his morganatic wife who was christened as the princess royal, and who henceforth all her life received the homage due to that exalted position becoming finally the wife of the emperor of Germany, while the real little princess passed under the name of the Piitice.-sS Adelaide, and was supposed to be the daughtei of the relative of Prince Albert, who wedded the latter’s discarded wife. She was placed in charge of a lady and a gentleman in waiting, who hsd charge of the education, and the prince placed at their disposal large sums of money, in order that nothing might be lacking for her. It was a strange education that she received, however. Nothing taught her of the history of England, either in the present or BEST FOR THE BOWELS ” J°u haven’t a regular, healthy movement of the £ e i every dav, you're ill or will be.

Of all that had taken place, of course, Queen Victoria was kept in complete ignorance. Site never knew of the little princess other I than as a distant relative of her i husband, and never connected with | her the absences which took the prince consort away from herself at intervals, for the prince was pas sionately fond of his little wronged daughter, loving her far more de votedly than any one of his ' ac knowledged children, and he used to go and visit her for days at a time, though the child only knew him as an “uncle,” and was never toki that he was the prince consort of the queen. Years passed by and finally' the prince consort was about to die. Remorse for the deception he had practiced preyed upon him. Final ly he confessed all to the queen, whose indignation and anger, when she learned how she had been duped, knew no bounds. * In fact, it became necessary' to re move her from the bed chamber of the prince, lest she do him some harm, and it was the Princess Al ice who kept watch by his bedside and who soothed his last hours. Policy', cf course, demanded that not a whisper of this reach *ne pub lic. and the sad affair was success fully kept secret from all except John Brown, who heard the story from the prince, and his knowledge of this secret would explain, doubt less, the mysterious hold which he had upon the queen. PRINCE ALBERT’S WILL. Iu his will Price Albert made such restitution as he could, leav ing a large fortune in trust with Paris bankers for his child, and it is supposed that this was the reas on why Queen Victoria forbade the contents of his will from being made public, defying the laws of England upon that question. Later, it will be remembered, the queen caused a law to be passed by parliament, providing that the last testaments of royalty should be ex empt from publication. Years later, when Victoria was very ill, she relented, and told John Brown that she wanted him to send for Princess Adelaide, and that in case it was decided that she could not recover she would acknowledge her daughter. Prin cess Adelaide was sent for post haste, and came without delay to Windsor castle. The queen’s ill ness took a favorable turn, how ever, and the princess departed again without seeing her royal mother. Throughout all these years, the princes's had been supplied by' Paris bankers with a very large income, which had been left for her by the prince consort. All at once this income stopped. No reason was given for its cessation, but it was surmised that the dis sipations of the Prince of Wales, which at that time were at their height, had caused such a drain upon the royal coffers that the queen found it expedient to divert from their purpose the funds which the prince had left for his daugh ter. WENT TO NEW ORLEANS. Thus thrown upon her own re sources, the poor princess, today unfitted to cope with the hardships of the world, came to America, ac companied by her faithful gentle in-waiting, the noblewoman who had so long been her devoted per sonal attendant having died some time before These two came to New Orleans, where the man was taken ill with yellow fever. Upon hig deathbed lie persuaded the princess to marry him and the cer emony was performed. She, how ever, did not take his name, but passed as Mine. Kent. Later she was married again, this time to a physician who attended her first husband, and who learned from him the secret of Mine. Kent’s par entage. A few years later he also died, leaving the poor woman practically alone in the world. Some prominent people in New York, to whom her story had been confided, and who believed it, did their best to assist her, and a few years ago she published a book telling the strange story of her life just as it had developed, and at the last heard from her she was living i;i poverty in New York city, ex isting upon the sales of the book and upon the charity of her friends. Mine. Kent was a woman of won derful grace and refinement and ex quisite charm of manner, with the most remarkable resemblance to Queen Victoria, the similarity be tween them being much more marked than between the queen and the acknowledged princess royal, the Dowager Empress of Germany. OABTOHIA. B*arg tie Kin(l Haife BOUgtlt SYMPTOMS OF BAD BLOOD There is a popular belief that every boil is worth many times its weight in gold, and the sufferer patiently, even cheerfully, endures the pain under the mistaken idea that these little tormentors are health promoters; that the}' thin the blood when too thick, and cleanse and cool it when too hot or too rich. On the contrary, boils and carbuncles are evidence of blood poverty, or a fearfully depraved condition of that fluid. There may be no external evidence of bad blood until the warm days of spring set in motion the sluggish circulation and the pent-up impurities, unable to escape through the natural outlets, gather near the surface of the skin, and a Carbuncle or a Boil is the result. When the blood is burdened with an undue amount of this impure matter, the Boils come hi greater number, eat deeper into the surrounding flesh, and, being nearly always located on a bed of nerves, cause the most intense suffering. Robust and apparently healthy people are subject to Boils, and there is always some hidden agency at work within the "blood and system that will eventually undermine the health, but those whose constitutions are broken down by previous sickness or other causes, are most often the unhappy victims of Boils and Carbuncles. Exposure to the deadly malaria destroys the red corpuscles and reduces the blood to such a weak and watery condition that it succumbs to the boil-producing poisons, and the pale and sallow DANGEROUS CARBUNCLES. Kr. J. B. Scott, a. resident of Hnzel hurst, Miss., writes: “S.'S. S. cured a malignant carbuncle on my neck which tire doctors had been unable to bring to a head. As soon as I began to use S. S. S. I was relieved of pain and the dreadful carbuncle got entirely well. My skin is clear, sound and smooth, and I am well today through using S. S. S. lam 6f years eld.” kidneys or chronic liver trouble, brought on by lack of nutritious blood; or it may develop into a running abscess or ugly eating sore, causing years of suffering, and often terminating fatally. To seek relief from the inflammation and pain produced by these terrifying erup tions through the application of local remedies is natural and right, but this method of treatment does not prevent others coming, or bring the slightest relief to the disease-burdened, deeply poisoned blood. Only a thorough regeneration and building up of the depreciated blood can bring about a lasting cure of Carbuncles and Boils and prevent their reappearance. S. S. S. restores to the old blood all its lost properties, re-invigorating and giving it the healthy red color that only pure, fresh blood can have, and through this new blood strength and vigor comes to the bodily organs; the skin resumes its ft functions, and impurities of whatever character are taken 1 tip and filtered out of the system in nature’s way. S. S. S. is made exclusively of roots and herbs selected 1 I for their wonderful purifying and tonic properties. It cures blood poison diseases of all kinds, whether acute or chronic. No matter how long the poison may have been in the blood, S. S. S. removes every vestige of it, thus insuring a faultless circulation and healthy body.

Tomatoes rouse torpid liver and do the work ordinarily of a doctor’s prescription. Lettuce has a soothing, quieting effect upon cne nerves, and is an insomnia remedy. Celery is an acknowledged nerve tonic, and is more and more used in medical prescriptions. Onions are also a tonic for the nerves. Dandelions purify the b'ood and generally are declared to tone up the system. Watercress, which is now at its best, is a “good, all around” brace up for the system. Potatoes should be eschewed by those who ‘‘have a horror of get ting fat,” as that is one penalty of eating them. Spinach has medicinal proper ties and qualities equal to the most indigo of all blue pills ever made. Parsnips, it is now contended by scientists, possess almost tne same virtues that are claimed for sarsap arilla. Beets are fattening, and even a moderately learned man will ex pand because of the sugar con tained in them.
