For each Mathieu characteristic number of integer order (MCN) we construct sequences of upper and lower bounds both converging to the MCN. The bounds arise as zeros of polynomials in sequences generated by recursion. This result is based on a constructive proof of convergence for Ince's continued fractions. An important role is also played by the fact that the continued fractions define meromorphic functions.
