American marriages became the mode in the seventies, and several ladles who crossed the pond' in those far-off days have kept ever young and remained serial queens for two generations. "Among these are Consuelo, Duchess of Manchester; the Hon. Lady Carrington. Lady Molesworth. Lady Paget and Mrs. Cornwallis-West. "Queen Alexandra Is the best In

stance of a lady long past her prime who has kept much of her beauty, rae e and youthful fascination. Age is' an open secret with royal personages, ami most people know that Britain's Queen will reach sixty four on the first if next December. Vet her features remain perfect; she is still slender In figure, is bright and alert and keej as keen as ever on many interests and amusements. She is still a good walkpr. can drive her own motor, is a regular opera-goer, attends bolls and parties and Is always dressed to perfection."

Handkerchiefs.

Colored handkerchiefs become more

and more In vogue every day. and

now. when they match not only tho

nat. nut the parasol, they are almost a rage. The tiny glove moucholrs are extremely ornate, and a dainty corner

peeping rortn rrom the chamois gaunt let Is most attractive.

Embroidery Designs.

Because of the widespread desire for Egyptian embroidery designs tho mummy cases at famous museums have

neen used as models. On them Is still

preserved marvelous coloring nnd line

wont.

Buckles in Coats. Instead of the Iouk smart coat beim?

fastened with buttons it is draped well over to, tho left side and fastened with a large barbaric buckle.
