When the fairy coach or float of Queen

four handsomely caparisoned horses, its
progress around the tribunes was tri-
umphal march.
The ornate rococo design of the float,
gilded and wound with blue and white
tarletan, the dainty blue and white

made fitting background for the pyra-
mid of small maidens, all of whom ex-

with lace-edged and tucked frills,

into which lace bands were inserted;
over her head she carried dainty white
silk parasols covered with pleated rufiies
of mule, and her hose. slippers and sash
were also white. Two by two the little
maidens took their positions on the
throne steps and after paying their re-
spects to the queen strewed flowers for
their little queen TO walk upon as sine
mounted to receive her crown.
The gentlemen In waiting had lifted
all the little ladies to the ground, and
