Her gown Is white, writes she:

And fits entrancingly.
The bodice has two hundred tucks
And fifty yards of lace
Put round the yoke and down the front
And every other place.
The skirt Is shirred all round the ton
And flares out at the feet;
The whole thing, so Belinda says,

ington and constitutes at once the prin-
cipal thoroughfare and favorite prom
enade. Measured by the standards of
the financial world it is trifle difficult
to estimate the exact value of the
splendid property, comprising about
10000 square feet, over which waves
the British flag. The tax assessors
have estimated the holding-which is,
Of course, exempt from taxation-to be
worth not less than s1S3, 200, but in
reality its value is double that sum.
However, this bit of British soil at
Washington was not always so valua-
BILE, and in the selection of the site the
representatives of the London foreign
Office showed remarkable foresight.
The ground was purchased at an insig-

is worth to-day-and the residential
structure when it was built, at a cost
of $125.000, at the time Sir Edward
Thornton was British minister at
Washington, was set down in barren
waste. Gradually, however, the evo-
luton wrought by time made of this
little estate very pivotal point for
the accumulation of Washington's
fashionable residences.
The British embassy home is an i'm

which, with it's substantial stable, out

But the unexpected happened, and

And. oh. life was glad! no heart hath

As my own heart then throbbed at the look

When my soul spread its pinions and
