ter he succeeded to the throne on
February 5, 1918.
While he was still a young officer in
the French army, Bernadotte, in 1898
had married Mile. Clary. the younger

Bernadotte, who reigned under the
name Of Charles John XIV, although
himself Of low birth. never forgave his
wife her humble descent. He often
expressed the regret that he had not
waited a few years with his marriage
as he then coub have had his choice

had only one child, son who married
Josephine de Beauharnais. and upon
his accession to the throne took the

a hat is trimmed with a full wreath

the crown is covered with a loose,

chiffon or maline, which softens the
vivid tones OF the hat. Ribbon bows
