Please advise me as to the proper way
TO address a widow-Mrs. James E. or
Mrs. Moibe P.-the former being her hus-
bands and the latter her own name. and

A widow may be addressed by her hus-
bands name or her own. 1t is question
of taste, and some ladies like one way, some
the other. She may consult her prefer
ence without fear of criticism. This is the
American rule. In Loncon it is not per-
missable for a widowed lady to use other
than her own Christian name.
