The Etiquette of the
English Royal Household
Glimpse Functionaries Of the
King and Queen

The outside world knows very little
Of the inner life, of the ordering and
working Of the vast machinery of the
English royal household, which must
indeed go with clocklike precision to
insure that absence of confusion
which is absolutely imperative. There
are several hundred persons on the
staff, each one of whom has a clearly
defined duty, from which he seldom
deviates, for court etiquette, taken on
the whole, is precise and formal, and
many observances which prevailed in
previous generations still hold good,
the same things, in fact, being done
In the same way.
There are several departments ap-
pertaining to their majesties' house
holds the head of each one being re-
sponsible to the monarchs for the due
performance of duty by every indi-
vidual under his or her authority, and
there are offices which are depart
ments in themselves. Needless to
say, each responsible person must pos
2sess the highest qualifications for his

post, and an abundance of tact in his
dealing with all persons with whom
he comes in contact.
The lord chamberlain, as is known
by many, is a prominent figure at all
state ceremonies, and at their males
ties court he it is who makes the
actual presentations-tha is, reads
out the names of the presentees to
the king. But there are many other
duties connected with his lordship
that the public knows nothing about;
for instance, he and his department
have the absolute charge of all the
furniture and fittings OF each palace
Needless to say, this is very onerous
charge and a most accurate system
of detail is requisite. Every article
within the palaces is entered in a
huge volume, one of series styled
inventories" at Windsor Castle

The master of ceremonies, anothe
great official, really comes very littl,
upon the scene, except at state func.
tons; but it is his special province
to introduce to his majesty visiting
or newly appointed ambassadors and
other persons of great note.
Each monarch has a private sec
rotary, whose duty it is to open all
correspondence and deal with it, the
only exception being such as have
the hallmark of relationship or the
"cousinship" of friendly monarchs.
Then there is the master of the
horse, and it is interesting to note
that he takes rank really as the third
great officer of the court, and has en-
tire superintendent of the stables.
The Office of mistress" is always
held by a duchess, and is vacant each
time a minister retires. The duties

SHOWING THE WEDDING GIFTS.
Charming Exhibitions Made at FreacA
Brdals.

In Paris most charming conceits arc
devised to enhance the effect of an
exhibition of wedding gifts in the
brides home Sometimes the furni-
ture is removed from one or two
rooms to give space to show cases,
where is made tasteful array of the
most delicate parts of the trousseau,
and numberless bivelots. The heavier
articles are suspended from screens
or round the walls from hanging rib
bons, pictures, or even dados OF
crinkled papier velours in some sub
dued shade. One of the most telling
arrangements is dispersal against the
walls of small tables covered with mig
nonette-green silk, and on which are
artistically displayed the bridal treas
ures, to each of which is attached with
a pink ribbon the card of the giver.
The contents of every table are part
ly yelled by vaporous tulle held up to

statuette, and draped at the sides with

"MoSEsEs sIkf DAY."

A prominent southern statesman
says that last summer he was max
ing a horseback trip through the
northern part of Alabama when he
came upon a negro cabin. the sounds
issuing from which gave evidence OF
an extraordinary commotion within.
Shouts and yells of terror succeeded
each other so rapidly that the traveller
fastened to ascertain the cause OF
the trouble.
AS the rider drew rein before the
door half dozen ragged pickaninnies
ran out. All but one of them were
screaming and crying at the tops of
their voices, while the odd one. as
merry as the others were sad. began
