Next to the one piece costume, which
Is most popular, there is the blouse,

panels of embroidery inserted between

doubt that to his immediate circle his
condition is disquieting. While there
is no specific ailment, the restless,
wearing life he leads, with public
engagements and private entertain
ments following SO fast on one an
others heel that he is constantly doing
and never resting, means a
strain that no constitution could
stand There are signs that even his
splendid physique is giving way under
it. The only concession King Edward
makes to advancing years is to avoid
late hours. Occasionally he permits
himself a short nap in the afternoon,
