LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT tO THE LITTLE MARQUISE, CARE OF THE SECRET DRAWER, CONTINUED I am enclosing, little Marquisb, a clipping irom the society columns ; of the Albany Express about Alice Hartley's wedding. It may interest you to know just how we of today conduct tlm>e affairs. I expect this is very different from the way they were conducted when you possibly hoped that you might be the wife of a king instead of his secret sweetheart. . You will see that the reporter j raved r. little as she said: ‘‘T aay at high noon. Miss Alice ; Hartley pnd Mr. Porter Breed were I married at St. John’s Episcopal : Church. “The wedding was perhapa the most impressive and elegant that lias ever l>eeu solmenized in this city. Although the invitations were i quite informal, as the wedding was . rather a hurried one, every society | matron and maid seemed to have purchased'a new gown for the occa- j sion. “The whole interior of the church was a bower of spring blossoim. The chancel was completely covered with lilies of the valley and orchids. Its beauty was so overpowering that It almo./t overawed the guests. There was Hi tie of th.o usual gay whispering while waiting the arrival of the bride. “It is probable that never in the history of Albany o<’iety has there been such an exquisite wedding pageant as proceeded the beautiful bride up the aisle of St. John’s Churc’.. *•■• -s. Walter Burke, who was matron of honor, was in orchid chiffon, crowned with a great picture hat covered with orchids. Her j jewels were amethysts and diamonds j and regally sho headed the proces- | slon of the fairest and .-martest girls ! in the city. “Miss Bernice Oliver, in pale rose ; chKfon; Miss Sally Harriman. in blue; Miss Irene Santley, in pastelle i green, and Miss Edith Wharton, in light yellow, followed tho radiant j matron of honor. All wore picture j hats and flowers to match. "The bride, in a magnificent white brocaded satin with* a rose-point ; wedding veil, was escorted to the j chancel kv Mr. John Alden Prescott, j where she was met by Mr. Breed and his best man, Mr. Walter Burke. "The union of theso two people consummated a boy and girl love affair, and brought into one two of | the oldest names in the society annals of the city. “Although the parents of Miss j Hartley nro both dead, her father j having passed away about a year
ago, the older families can remember when the Hartley home, on the hill was the center of attraction Tor all the young people in the city. Five generations of Hartleya have lived in the old mansion which unfortunately passed out of the family during the life of the bride’s father. “That the bridegroom had many romantic and sentimental remembrances of the old home is evidenced by the fact that it was one of his magnificent presents to his bride on her wedding day. “The happy couple, upon whom fortune has seemed to smile, will go abroad for a leisurely summer among the Swias and Italian lukes, where they will be joined a little later by Mrs. Joseph Graves Hamilton and her son-ln law, Mr. Karl Whitney.” Copitriaht. 19tS.

Martha Lee Says OVER-GENEROUS PARENTS B CHILD’S FUTURE
It is a pathetic thing to see a father and mother lavishing on their children all the luxuries they missed in their own youth. They think they are making the children happy by piling on gift after gift.
But are they? The elders appreciate the gifts, but many times the children do not. They become so much accustomed to them that they take them as a matter of course. Then, too, they miss the joy that comes with earning their luxuries, and with sacrificing to gain something they want very much. They lose, also, a sense of values. Worst of all, they grow blase. The child whose every wish is fulfilled from babyhood on has nothing for which to wish by the time he is about 20. And that Is real tragedy. So It develops that the parent who gives and gives is not being generous, as he supposes. He gets more pleasure than he gives. Grandma’s Worried Dear Miss Lee: I am an old woman. I have two grandchildren who are all that I have to live for. Their father, my aon, has made a lot of money In the last few years and he gives them everything they want. I am old-fashioned. Miss Lee, and I believe bringing chUdren up In the oldfashioned way, even it you have a lot of money. My son Is spoiling his children, and they get worse every day. They do not appredate what he does for them and I am afraid they will turn out bad. Ho does not make them work at ali, ana when my daughter-in-law wants to make the girl help around the house my son gets made an says his children do not have to work. What can we do? GRANDMA. Surely two women can convince one man. And evidently you have the usual combination of the mother and daughter-in-law lined up against the wife and son. Many men feel, very foolishly, as your son feels, that it is right their children should not work, but should be showered with gifts, when they acquire a little money. Os course,
To Whiten Skin with Lemon
The only harmfless way to bleach the skin white is to mix the Juice of two lemons with three ounces of Orchard White, which any druggist will supply for a few cents. Shake well In a bottle, and you have a whole cuartt -pint of the most wonderful skin v nltener, softener and beautlfler. Massage this sweetly fragrant lemon bleach Into the face, neck, arms and hands. It can not Irritate. Famous stage beauties use it to bring that clear, youthful skin and rosy-white complexion; also ns a freckle, sunburn and tan bleach. You must mix this remarkable lotion yourself. It can not be bought ready to use because It acts best immediately after it is prepared.—Advertisement

they are all wrong, and the children suffer. It is possible that you can show your son, perhaps by pointing to other men’s spoiled children as an example, that he is being selfish, instead of generous; that he is giving his children a false idea that life hands out gifts, instead of teaching them to fight the battles they will have to fight as time goes on.
