these small matters, and anything that
she is pleased to regard as a royal prerog-
alive must never be trifed with.
The Queen does not put her letters into
a waste basket but as soon as read, the
letters are thrown on the floor at her feet,
and removed by body servant.
The royal mail is brought by a special
courier to the palace. 1t is first taken to
the official secretary. That portion mark
ed private" is taken to the Queens pri-
waite secretary No. /, and. after he has ex-
amined it carefully and has assured him
self that nothing of an unpleasant nature
is to reach the queen, he turns 1t over TO
the Indian secretary, who is the favorlte
with Her Majesty at present. This dark
skinned attendant scans each letter sep
arately.
If important letters come when the
Queen is out driving the secretary Is com
manded to bring them to her. and, after
reading them, they are thrown 10 the
ground. to be gathered up by the secre-
tary after she has gone on her way again.

THE MONTH OF FURS.
The December Woman Is Clad In Them
1rcn Head to Foot.
Little Fur Capes -The Fashions
That Govern tho Wearing OF All
Kinds Of Skins-There Are Furs
for Pet Dogs.
{Copyright.)

tCODyrlSHl.D
Vague tidings of trouble with the
sealeries have reached here, but they
have not affected the fashions in furs.
1t is remarkable how many differ
ent kinds of fur have been found.
There are nine varieties in sable alone,
one OF these being the common black
cat, which is called by a term which
in English means roof sable
1t is wonderful, too, how many ways
they have of trimming furs and how
many different materials they can
combine with them. The loose, Ill
fitting fur coat is thing of the dis
tant past, and the new fur coat, jaunty
and becoming, has taken its place
Russian blOuses of fur or its imitation
are very stylish.
The capes are of the old circular
shape, only a little longer, perhaps
that is, the capes for evening dress.
| They are intended to be worn with
low-cut dresses, and must consequently
be very warm.
The distinguished feature in these
capes is that they are trimmed with
fur silk, lace, chiffon, or any other
material. Silk is one of the most pop
ular cape trimmings, heavy gros-
grain silk being used. One kind Of fur
trims another, and of these mink and
chinchilla are the most seen.
.. Collars are extremely high. 1t is
difficult to imagine anything more
elaborate than the new Medici collar.
It is not only extremely tall, but K
flares out very broad, and its roll is
simply immense MANY of the smaller
capes look as though they were worn
wrong side up-as though the collar
should be around the shoulders.
If capes are large, muffs are enorm-
Gus. 1t is the fashion to carry the
hands in the muff, and any number
of parcels can be hidden in this volu-
minous depths.
Women who marct with a dog are
ndulging in the widest vagaries in
dog coats A dog wearing a coat OF
black satin had sable collar around
his neck, tied in place with band of
blue satin ribbon. A white handker-
chief was in the pocket Of his coat.
He wore black satin shoes topped with
sable.
The young woman who walked with
this dog wore an astrachan collarette
Of dullest black with ,all collar. 1t
had a square front. The shoulders
were mere epauettes. While on the
march a friendly dog met this woman
and her companion and stopped a
moment to whisper a word. This
dog wore white broadcloth coat,
trimmed with Persian lamb. His shoes
were Of gray satin.

We decided to buy revolver and put
