DEBTS OF ROYALTY.
Tradesmen Wait Patiently aud Present
Bills to Kings.

Tradesmen Wait Patiently aud Present No
Bills to Kings.
There are many persons who will
envy the privilege which royalty en-
joys of never being dunned for trades
mans bills The great Partisan dress
makers in particular make point of
never sending in any account to their
royal and imperial customers unless
specially requested TO do SO. At the
san,c time, all sorts of clever artifices
and devices are adopted to remind GUS
toners of this exalted rank-without
appearing to do so-that money is due
and payments desirable.
some of the scions of royalty are
ve1v punctilions and exact about their
pa. ments. especially the princess of
W"les. who has from the English crown
an independent allowance of fifty
Thousand dollars per annum, which
is supposed to be entirely spent
in lress-not SO difficult a mat
ter when it is borne in mind
that throughout the London season the
pr; ;ocess, AS the observed of all OBJ
servers. never appears second time in
the same toilet, that the toilets are
changed several times q day, and that
many of them, especially those for
evening and court wear, cost one thou
sand dollars and one thousand five
hundred dollars each.
Very different from the princess of
Wales is the dowager queen of Portu-
gal, who is perennially hard up, in
spite of the large allowances she re-
ceives from the Portuguese and Italian
civil lists. Iler tradesmen at Paris,
whence she gets all her clothes, have
to wait years for their money, which
they get only when some of those Por-
tuguese loans happen to be foated, or
when the queen Is able to get her
brother, King Humbert OF Italy, to
come to her rescue and fill her depleted
purse.
The members of the Russian court
are very exact and unquestioning in
their payments, and so, too, is Queen
Marguerite of Italy, her punctilious-
ness in this respect being due to her
husband, King Humbert, who, still suf-
fering from the disastrous effects OF
Tue iuSdnc cXtrdSaSduce OF MS Idtner,
Victor Emmanuel. is careful to run as
few bills as possible. and, SO far as b.
can. to pay as he goes.
This immunity from duns does not
extend to royal personages whose fam
lies have been deprived of their
thrones. or who are compelled to prefix
an .'ex" to their title. Thus, ex-King
Milan of Servia is constantly being
and sued, while old ex-Queen
Of Spain every now and again
gets into such a terrible snarl with he.
Partisan tradesmen that her daughter
in-law, the queen regent, is compelled
to send me1nbcss of her own household
from Madrid to straighten matters out
and to assume charge OF the old lady's
There is popular impression
abroad that the prince of Wales is fre-
ouentiy dunncd by tradesmen. But
this is not the case. ] don't suppose
lie ever received . tailor's bill in his
life, sud his pressing needs for money!
