feature VIII be the appearances Of Mrs. Chamberlain,
who VIII be presented by the Duchess Of Bedford This
most suitable arrangement, considering the position
which the Duke holds among the Liberal Unionists,
must be very pleasing to Mr. Chamberlain as the
Duchess occupies very great place IN the best
English society," has been Mistress Of the Robes, and
enjoys the highest favor with the Queen. There VIII

EMPRESS FREDERICK AND HER DAUGHTERs

nonbors Of the royal family win accompany
her part of the journey. 1t would be quite I'm
possible for the Empress TO take part in any public
