No i royal personage probably cares ball so much for motoring as the Queen Mother i: of Italy, who possesses some- of the finest i cars in existence—heir interiors. are fitted •. with armchairs, and tables and electric " light. In each hangs a silver image of St. V Christopher, and round it, on a scroll, this ;i petition, composed by Her Majesty . " St. .# Christopher preserve us from the perils :oi\:.the way and protect us from the incidents \ of the journey." Queen Margherita has ex- ? plored the beauties of a large part of the -; Continent of Europe by motor-car, and in the same way she hopes some day to see some of the wonderful scenery of America. Her Majesty has constantly been urged to this by her American friends in Home, but that is only an idea, for the future. It. is, however, asserted that she has < definite Iv - planned a visit to England next and that she intend* to "do" various -;aiiu- . .dral towns by motor-car.
