The nose sometimes served as the

for itself. a patch on the lip was trans

Queen Alexandra. IL is said. has no
mind TO walk to her throne in West
minister abbey looking like a picture
out of the middle ages. Her robes will
have a modern style so far as possible
and grace and beauty will not be sacri-
feed TO historic precedent or to the coll
lege OF heralds.
Her majesty for long years has been
an example in elegance and suitability
OF dress and has never failed to take
the palm for dress at all great ceremo-
malls. That she has no intention of los
ing this reputation at the coronation Is
very evident.
The queen will not walk under can
opy on that all important day. that an
cient custom being omitted from the
ceremony. but the precedent of having
her train carried by four duchesses
may be followed and would certainly
give distinction to the procession and
prevent rivalry among the peeresses.

she wanted to by means of patches.
To be sure, there were combinations.
