weekly return on their money and
these dividends were said by Flagg to
be the earnings produced by his
agents stock transactions, less the
usual commissions and charges.
The customers got per cent a week
In dividends, and the government
charges that this money did not repre-
sent actual dividends, but rather was
a trick of finance such as was played
by 500 per cent Miller a few years
back. only that Miller paid 10 per cent
weekly whereas Flagg paid l per cent
Flagg did not advertise his business
in the ordinary way, but used the mails
to attract customers. His best adver-
tisements We're his customers. 1t is
alleged that Flagg has taken in nearly
100000 in two years, and he is I'M
derst pod to have more than $1,000OOO
slowed away in safety deposit vaults.
His books, which were seized, showed
that he had customers in practically
every large city of the country, many
of whom were prominent men and
some of them clergymen. No trouble
seemed to have arisen over inability OF
customers to withdraw their money be-
cause everybody seemed thoroughly
captivated by the l per cent weekly
dividends.
Doubling customers were referred to
Mr. Morgan and they usually were re-
assured when the former United States
treasurer Endorsed Mr.. Flagg and his
as trustworthy.
Mr.. Morgan and the other men ar
rested are alleged to have been parties
to the business and are accordingly
jointly accused with Flagg.

Queen Mary
Wears
$50 Dresses

~ NGLAND has an questionable
II queen. While King George
IL affects the latest modes, the
tastes of his queen in matters
of dress are those of a thrifty house
wife with little to spare on personal
adornment Her hats as well as her
gowns are unostentatious.
Some of the more simple dresses in
her majesty's wardrobe cost not more
than the equivalent of $50 That is
not to say that they are made Of
cheap material. On the contrary. the
queen always insists that no matter
how low priced the dress supplied to
her it must contain no imitation ma
terial Everything must be the best
of its kind
Usually Queen Mary orders several
gowns at the same time in order that
she may not waste time. Word is
sent to the esta blishment she intends
to patrOnize telling the manager that
the queen will call at such and such
time on such and such a day. A gen
eral description of the kind of gowns
she would like to purchase accOmpa-
MES the notification. The manager
must provide a private room in which
to receive her majesty. and number
of gowns such as he thinks will meet
with her favor are paraded before her
on a living model.
Queen Mary has decided tastes Of
her own in matters of dress, and she
seldom orders an exact copy Of any Of
the models shown to her. There is al
ways some modification required, and
she gives the most minute directions,
which are taken down and submitted
in writing for her approval, so that
there may be no mistake.
In some cases dressmakers are COM
manded to call at Buckingham palace
with a selection of model gowns, but
as q rule Queen Mary prefers to call
at the shops. The fittings" are al
ways done at Buckingham palace, and
the queen makes II very plain that she
does not want to give more than one
fitting for each gown. That means
that the modiste must use every care
that little or no alteration is neces-

QUEEN MARY OF ENGLAND.

sary. Frequently the dresses made
for Queen Mary are trimmed with
priceless lace and embroideries sup
piled from the collection at Bucking-
ham palace. In such cases after the
gowns have served their purpose the
trimmings are removed to do service
again. In no case are these trimmings
sold with the dresses.
Queen Mary has been known to wear
the same dress as many as twenty-five
times. On an average dresses remain
in the royal wardrobe about six
months, and during that time they are
worn probably eighteen times each,
although the frequency of their use
varies a great deal. according to the
nature of their material and style, and
thus a walking dress would be worn
more often than an evening gown.
The clothes of the queen are in
charge of a dressing maid and two as
sistants, called dressers, and are kept
in a great apartment adjoining the
queens bedchamber, known as the
roberoom. The walls are lined with
enormous wardrobes, some containing
the state robes and others her ma
jesty's ordinary gowns and dresses.
One of the ladies of the bedchamber
sends a card in the evening to the
dressing maid, giving particulars Of
the dresses that will be worn by the
queen on the following day. After each
dress is entered the hour at which it
must be ready and laid out in the
dressing room. The system is simpli-
fed by the numbering of every cos
tune in her majesty's extensive ward
robe, and any reference to them Is
made by number.
Twice year Queen Mary personally
goes over her wardrobe and throws
out the dresses she no longer wishes to
retain. Those discarded are disposed
of in two ways; a small number are
given to the dressing mistress and her
assistants, but the great majority are
sold to dress agency.
The selling of the queens old dresses
is conducted by the dressing mistress,
who is given the widest discretion in
the matter. There is one condition, |
however. that is always insisted upon
under no circumstances are the dresses |
of the queen to be resold il England |
by the agency buying them.
