more richly endowed with official resi-

the king of Italy. who seems to have
a palace in every city In his kingdom.
The important palaces at Vienna are
two, the Hofburg, in the heart of the
city and Schoenbrunn, in the suburbs.
The former is the chief official resi-

the emperor when at the capital Of the

Of the residence Of Austrian princes

which the public has access, so that
there is a continual coming and going

seen the palace for more than thirty

sition, but warranted because of the
excellence and beauty of the flowers.

broidery and narrow val lace. The
frame is covered with blue crepe, and
this forms facing. The upper brim
and crown are of the embroidery in an

lace finishes the edge, and there Is a
collar and hanging ends of black vel

The Worumbo sport coat shown
here is in black and white, cut on easy
and rather vague lines. 1t is drawn In

braid Is used for binding the collar and
cuffs. Two large and very practical
pockets add definitely to the charac-

may be turned up about the throat and
buttoned to place.
The hat, of white corduroy velvet. Is
trimmed with band and cockade of
white ribbon. White gloves and
shoes, either of kid or canvas, are in
keeping with the rest of the toilette
and complete midsummer garb that
is a thing of beauty and joy for all

TRAINING the Memory.

Training the memory, as the term
has been understood, is misleading
It would be better to say that you
train yourself in the handling of varf-
Gus kinds of material, using all your
faculties in the process. To remem-
Der, in the fullest sense of the term,
YOU must assimilate. You must per-
ceive the object. understand 1t and
treat 1t nationally. Thus you get 1t
fixed in your mind. The process
changes as the material to be handled
changes. If the material to be
worked up" is similar, the training
gained in working up one kind will
help in working up another. But in
the slightest variation In the material
there is a corresponding variation In
the process, and some new elements
to be considered.
