one side OF the face, moving about from
one point to another in some mysteri-
Gus manner, but always producing the
desired effect. II would be- transferred
to the opposite side the next day and

tated, The mystery of the moving
spot caused trouble at last While
aristocratic maids and matrons OF
Mayfair and Belgravia were priylleged
10 discuss II freely, the servants at the
"Priory' at Reigate where Miss Letter
was staying with her sister and broth

day I'm her hearing about the spot"
with the result that the 'Priory' was

MOTOR CRAZE.
Motor driving by society women
promises to be the craze OF the next
London season, and there Is every in
dlcation that American women are go-
ing to play prominent part In It. The
latest among them 10 take lessons are
the Marchi0ness of Duffcrin and young
Mis- Bradley Martin. Both have been
receiving instruction from a well
known French expert I'm Paris, and ex-
potency before the commencement Of
the season, In London the former had
lessons I'm the mechanical part at the
Automobile school in Mayfair, and II is
said that she now understands every
detail in the construction Of her car.
The marChioness Is Of very nervous
temperament, and II was some time be-
fore she could command sufficient cour-
age 10 take spin I'm car even when
accompanied by her husband. An this
nervousness IS now worn off, and she
promises TO become one OF the most ac-
complished drivers in Great Britain.
CHILDREN REMEMBERED.
The keen personal Interest which the
Duchess Of Marlborough takes I'm the
childrens hospital, Great OrmOnd
street, was shown by the fact that
when a violent gas explosion took place
~ the immediate neighborhood OF the
hospital, "A few days ago, she was the
first TO send a message Of inquiry re-
garding the safety Of the institution
and tue children and nurses housed
there. This hospital is one OF the chief
objects Of her charitable attention, and
when there Is anything needed to add
TO the comfort Of the enjoyment of the
little ones confined there, she can al
stantial aid. Every Christmas she
sends flowers and eyergreens with
which the sick rooms and dormitories
are decorated.
ARISTOCRATS ALARMED.
CONSERVATION has been caused in
upper tendon by the announcement
that the army council has decided to
enforce drastic measures TO stop the eY-
traYagance which practically restricts
commissions In cavalry regiments TO
men with large private means This
means that this branch Of the service
will no longer be ofcered exclusively
by the scions Of wealthy houses and
blue blooded young aristocrats will
have 10 submit to the humiliation Of
plebian association and competition,
And worse than that as the result Of
giving free play to the latter, they win
be distanced by youths who, having no
fortunes OF their own, will seek promo
tion and increased pay by taking their
profession seriously instead Of dcvot-
ing themselves to cards and sports ana
other means of getting a good time out
of life, But the aristocratic officers
have brought II on themselves. For
long time they have had things all their
own way In these crack regiments, COM
missions In which have been regarded
as their special perqulsites. They have
been tried and found wanting-wanting
I'm brains. For their accommodation
and encouragement the educational
standard was considerably reduced and
still there were not enough Of them
capable Of passing these easy tests to
I'll the vacancies, Of which there are
now thirty-three for officers of the
cavalry of the line. SO the fiat has
gone forth, the doors are to be thrown
open and the man who has to live on
his pay is to be given fair chance.
And meanwhile the pets of society are
&c be denied the solace of making
splurge with their cash in the regl.
mental messes, Sympathetic Mayfair
echoes their opinion that II is beast
ly shame" LADY MARY.
