Queen Victoria says the New York
Tribune, sent TO Princess MAY the other
day little birthday gift which shows
That the venerable woman still preserves
much of the abundant sentiment which
was published to the world in her jour
nails. This gift was an exquisite TOrkist
rose in enamel and gold-the true white
rose OF York
The wedding ring of Princess May is
not to be an ordinary circle bought in
shop. II has been made of Welsh gold
from the Meriopethshire mines, and is a
gift to the Duke of York from the Welsh
people
The young princess is Just now the

Nowhere, says the New York Times,
has a growing love of color more persist

Those whose artistic instinct is in the
first stages of unfolding affect what they
call color symphonies. but WHICH are
really one-tinger exercises among the
treble notes. Green teas and yellow
breakfasts are soft and harmonious, but
they are monOtOnous. An advanced
color student knows that the bass notes
are necessary with the sweet treble,
each to complement the other. The

glaring contrasts, give themselves over to

Now that there is an increased amount
of travel in the sleeping-cars on account
of the worlds fair a few words on the
subject of feminine sefishness or thought
lessness are not out of place, says the New
| York Tribune. A sleeping-car contains
one small dressing-room for ladies' and
for any one woman to occupy that room
from half to three-quarters of an hour in
| themorning while long row of impatient
women, bag in hand, stand outside, is GER
tainly exceedingly thoughtless if not eX-
ceedingly selfish. 1t is true thatit is diff
cult for woman to arrange her bair in her
| berth and that it takes her longer to
complete her toilet than it does a man.
| But it behoOves the courteous traveller of
! the fair sex to shorten as much as posi-
| BILE the time devoted to her morning tot
! let, postponing some of its details until
| later in the day or until arriving at her
| destination. Not long ago woman, af-
! ter occupying the dressing-room of a
| sieeping-car for fully an hour, was finally
| routed out by the com bined efforts Of por-
| ter and conductor. On issuing from the
room she greeted the assembly of indig-
nant danes with "Please excuse me for
| keeping you waiting. | was taking q

! patient individuals.
Marshall Wilder tells a story-an old
! one, of course--about poor Richard which

"Who are your" asked the angel sus-

said;

for the lower floor. O."

A widely-known specialist in lung dis
