The Boudoir of the Czarina.

The boudoir of the Czarina at Czarskoye Selo is said to be a spacious apartment, very light and very sparsely curtained. Masses of tropical verdure divide the room into several cozy apartments and give it a very picturesque appearance. The dado of the wall Is formed almost entirely of photographs. An easel in one of the window recesses and a grand piano in another testify to the Czarina’s artistic tastes; several of her own water colors hang on the walls and she is In the habit of singing to the Czar the folk songs of his own country.
