upon the fiancee's arm, and can be only
removed by being sawn asunder. The
idea is very charming, Of course, to
lovers in the first flush Of mutual ador-
alton, remarks a writer'in the Lady 8
Pictorial. But these are days when
engagements are easily broken. Girls
can wear rings on any fingers. and
they tell no tale: but they could not
wear bangles riveted on their arms
without confessing themselves en-
gagged.

A Queens Tact.

Some time ago one Of Queen Alex
andra's many goddaughters was about
to be married. She was young lady
we'll known in society, but her parents
were diffident about inviting the Qneeu
to the wedding. The matter. however,
came to Her Majesty's ears, and she
sent for the mother Of the bride, ana
asked all about ii, says Home Notes.
On learning that the ceremony was to
be very quiet one, Queen Alexandra
remarked "Well, in that case there
will be room for me-" an observation
which caused great delight to the we'd
ding party. Her Majesty attended the
ceremonies in a most unostentatious
way, making herself charming to- all
the family relations who were present.

Lace Gowns.

Lace gowns are as appropriate for
winter as for summer wear. The
'handsomest of these lace gowns, says
the New York Evening Post, are often
entirely made of two or more kinds OF
lace landings. or Of a lace such as
all-over Valenciennes, inlet with an
other as Irish point or guipure. The
contrasts sought are striking. and un-
less managed with discretion and
skill the effects are anything but beau
tiful. There is new batiste. exquis-
itely fine and sheer, called batiste de
sole, which is used as foundation
material, and covered with medalions
and inlets of lace until the effect OF q
most elaborate lace gown is obtained.
The batiste hardly appears except here
and there in gaugings or tucklngs
