Queen Marguerite and Her Pearls.


From the Philadelphia Press.
The queen of Italy has always been passion
ately fond of pearls, befitted one whose
names is Marguerite, and she has made fashion
that is charming enough to please any woman,
but likely to be followed only by those whose
husbands are English dukes or American
millionaires. On her wedding day her husband
gave her as his bridal gift row of the finest
pearls to be found in Italy, having been in
formed of her perchant for that particular gen.
When the first anniversary of her wedding day
arrived he asked what she wished for gift and
she said 'another string of pearls" and the
second year she answered in the same way
After that he asked her no more, but always
gave her the same gift. AS she has son who
is quite a big boy, she has been married more
years than it is gallant to count, and her neck
lace of pearls counts by this time enough
strings to quite cover her throat with collar
of gems and hang down far over the corsage.
OF course the lower strings much longer
than the original one to clasp the throat but
King Humbert always gives exactly the same
number of pearls on each anniversary. and SO
she has of late to wait two years before adding
new string. Many superstitious women are
afraid of pearls as wedding gift and say it
means tears; and there can be no doubt that
the lovely queen has shed many, for her hus-
band Of late years has been treading very
closely in the footsteps of his fathor, who was
known to his whole realm as III Re Gal
antuomo"-"The Gallant King"
