STORIES OF EMPRESS FREDERICK.

Notwithstanding the appellation of
'washerwoman, which Bismarck is said
to have bestowed upon the late Dowagar
Empress of Germany on more than one
occasion, she asserted herself as a royal
English princess. 1t is told how not
long after her marriage, she one day
wanted chair near window and NOV

assistance of one of her ladies-in-wait-
ing. She was promptly reminded that
she was at the court of Prussia.

queen of England; in her palace 1 could
move a chair if / wished
The palace at Potsdam always one of
her favorite residences is full of his
toric interest Ancient portraits and
shields decorate the walls of the rooms
and these relics of the noblest German
families are often more quaint than
beautiful. Among the Inscriptions in
this palace, warffke or amatory one of
the most notable is the following:

Ma vie au roi,
Mon occur aux danes
Eft fhonneur pour moi.
Charles Locock, Queen Victoria's physi-
clan, was once sent by her majesty, who
was at that time anxious about her
daughters health. He was asked if he
could manage to run over to Germany

wish IS tantamount to command, and
Sir Charles promptly prepared for the
trip. Although he left an able doctor TO
look after his patients his time was too
valuable to permit of an absence of more
than few days from his practice. Ac-
cordingly he travelled straight through
to Potsdam, where he had a pleasant,
though hurried visit, enlivened by sew
eral incidents, one of which was some
what startling.
Among the princess maids of honor
was very vivacious damsel, who, de-
spite the frigid restraints of the Prus-
sian court, used to electrify the royal
circle with her pranks. One day as
Sir Charles was standing before the pal
ace talking with several of the court
dignitaries, this young lady appeared at
an upper window, wringing her hands
and shrieking as though in great pain.
Everyone turned to look in her direc-
ton, when she sprang back from the
window, and the next moment to the
horror of those looking on, the body flew
out, falling with thud on the pave.

and the men rushed to the spot where
she lay to find-a dummy dressed in her
clothes.
Sir Charles Locock was charmed with
the home life of the English princess
who chafed beneath the strict etiquette
of the court of Berlin and enjoyed a freer
existence at Potsdam. The worthy doc

USEFUL BLACK GOWNS.

Black is now so universally worn that
it is possible to be well dressed with
only two or three gowns. A black bo
lero and skirt for morning and general
wear are most useful, and they need not
be en- suite, although this is preferable
The tucked silk coats are smart with
fancy collars and are wearable with
coIored skirts and a-e certainly smarter
than cloth. A loose muslin front and
duck or linen skirt look quite nice with
silk coat for country or seaside wear, but
want black hat. white parasol and
gloves and the inevitable bouquet de cors-
age.
A second black gown of some thin, Ply
material on glace six or made to wear
over distinct foundation is useful with
blouses in black and white, with black or
transparent muslin or lace Another black
gown of crepe de chine or other thin,
silky texture IS for smart functions and
evening wear, and this is admirable with
plenty of creamy guipure, which should
be handsome and can be further relieved

they are usually termed, are invaluable

When asked if she pays any attention
to poultry raising, Mrs. Cook replied,
Not now. I tried it at first, but soon

the secret of this womans success lies n
the spirit of that very speech. 1t is GER
tain that you see at Fairy Glen no signs
of unfinished projects hanging fire, -
neither is there restless reaching out
for everything new under the sun. So
far as visitor may judge Mrs. Cooke
strikes the happy medium where she is
mot the first to try the new nor yet the
last to lay the old aside
1t is a good thing to bring before the
public the work of such women. If some
of the women who have 1ocked to offices
and other City positions could see the
difference between their own worn ner-
vous faces and the bright countenance of

These odds and ends were arranged in a
most tempting manner by the queen and
the infantas, and, the ladies of the court
recovering from their panic, there was a
jolly luncheon, at which all the maids
of honor talked cookery, quoting from
the immortal work of BriIlat Savarin,
and from other cook books which they
had been studying. Such food as had
not been seized upon by the queen and
the infantas were appropriated by the

HINTS FOR DREssMAKERs


To renovate or not to renovate is a
question to be considered from this
point-namely, whether It's better to have
a new gown or to send a really good
frock and half the cost of a new one
and have it returned in all respects a new
toilet. Ones intimate friends will no
doubt recognize the gown, but in all
other ways IT practically takes it's place
as a new gown.
A good black dress invariably "paye'
for renovating, but all queer and uncom-
mon shapes, either in skirt or bodice,
are best left alone unless the material

DUST AND TRAVELLING GOWNS.

The dust coats of the moment are ex-
tremely small garments. The best are Of
three quarter length, semi fitting ana
hanging in the most beautiful folds, cut
with big cape sleeves. Some in gray
taffeta are very smart with triple capes
or capuchin of coarse lace. Such a
garment does not seem to afford much
protection from the dust, but fashion has
reached the height of extravaganza, and
such details do not concern the woman
of fashion.
Travelling cloaks will soon be in request,
and these must be of a more sensible
kind. Here, again, the fancy is for
three-quarter length, and taffeta has it's
uses, but fine cloths cut a rempire, with
a big cape collar of the cloth and a re-
movable fichu of lace, make very desir-
able garments of this description The
real yachting coat, of course is a rough
blue pilot, which is faced in with tartan
and cut in ulster fashion.

Through lack of sufficient water
Thomas Square is rapidly becoming a

late have had little effect on the park

said the case would be expedited in
