No bride. If she would have good luck,

Kiss a bride right after the ceremony,
and before the newiy-made husband has

The chatelaine buckle, though a very
useful article, is sometimes a source OF
much perplexity to the girl who wears
il. Just which ones of the numerous toll
az accessories It is the most necessary to
have constantly on hand is a hard Dues
ton for her to settle. There are her
smelling salts. her nail file. engagement
pad, silver chain purse, pencil, tiny mir
ror,. glove buttoner, and a dozen other
things equally useful, says the Inter
Ocean"
One thing, however, which there has
never been any means Of carrying with
any comfort, and which is almost indis-
pensable to the young woman who ex-
poses her precious nose to the midsum-
mer sun. is the ebit Of, powder and tiny
puff with which to cover up the too rud-
dy glow induced by direct or reflected
rays. These articles have been inclosed
in a silver nutshell about the size and
shape of an English walnut, which can
be hung on the chatelaine. 1t contains,
besides the powder puff, which fills half
the she'll. a smelling salts bottle, with
places for FIVE or six pins around the
sides Of it, and a tiny mirror which
forms the partition between the two
parts, and which also has a place for
'his photograph" on the other side of It.
1t may, therefore. be used to take the
place of the separate smelling salts bot
tie and mirror besides its WI use as a
powder box, and by combining three ar
ticles in n help sslve the problem of
what to wear IN ones chatelaine.

In the private apartments of the Queen
at Wandsor Castle there are many touch
ing evidences Of the manner in which the
memory of the Prince Conscrt is revived
by her Majesty, says the Pfttsburg De-
spstch." The door of the Queens bou-
doir is inscrAbed.-"Thss chambe was al
teryd n decorated under the superin-
'ee4aence of H r. H. the Prince Ccnsort
in the twenty-fourth year; of the reign of
Queen Victoria"
Everything in the chamber remains as
It was arranged by the Prince thirty-six
years g and q conspicuous object under
a glass shade is the bouquet he presented
her Majesty on her wedding morning,
February 10, 1910. In the vestibule of the
long corridor leading to the Queens pri-
waite apartments there is a beautiful life
size marble group of her Majesty and the
Prince Consort, which was executed by
William Theed shortly after the Princes
death in December, 1851. The Prince is
Rrrayed as a knight The Queen has her
arms around his neck and is gazing low
tngly up into his face while he, with his
right arm extended, points on high. I'm

Goldsmith: 'He allures t brighter worlds
and leads the way" The group is covered
with lace and stands before a bright red

It Is y curious fact that of the ladies
of royal rank during the present century
only two have been leaders Of feminine
fashion, and they have both been pie
beian born Expresses of the French. In
the early years of the century the EN-
press Josephine was the accepted model
for the feminine world to follow in its
dress. and fifty years later the Empress
Eugene dictated the fashions from
Paris. Queen Victoria never originated
a fashion and her daughter-in-law is re-
spon sibie only for the high collar or band
about the neck. which she wore to con-
ceal a scar. and the punching Of frizzes
on the forehead, which becomes her bet
ter han any other style OF hair dressing.
Queen Marguerite and the Empress of
Austria never originated a style n the
present German Empress and her mann
ma-in-law are too domestic to care for
fashions.
