So very wide interest was shown In
her marriage to Prince George Of Bat
tenberg. which took place recently At
the Chapel Royal, London.
The Countess Torby. mother Of the
bride, was of extraordinarily romantic
descent. Her father was Prince Mich
olas Of Nassau, whe in his day defed
royal authority by contracting a NOR
ganatic marriage with the daughter Of
the great Russian poet Pushkin, who
was himself grandson Of Peter the
Greats black slave Hannibal.
1t is only necessary to look at the
Countess NADIA Torby to understand
that Prince George wanted her for her
self alone. She Is beauty Of the most
enhancing type. She has large dark
eyes, shaded by long lashes; sensi-
tive and delicately nodded face, q very
winning expression and a mass Of
black hair. With all her charms she
IS simple and unaffected. The grand
duke has lived with his family for
many years at an English estate called
Keels Hall, and he and his children
have mingled freely among the people

The costumers have tried hard this
year to get away from the accustomed
stereotyped separate skirts. Judging
from thoee on the hangers nowadays,
they have been something moro than
successful. The separate skirts this
year partake more Of the nature Of
beautiful dreams than Of actual neces-
stiles. Georgine. satin. velvets, plated
and striped soft silks and Kittens ear
cloth are the popular materials. The
majority Of these attractive garments
are made with q medium waist line
with decorated fanciful girdles At
tached. They are plated, tucked,
gored or gathered to let In the fashion
able fullness. some of them are even
shocked.
The separate skirts this year come In
all possible shades and colors and In
every fanciful combination that the
mind Of man could devise. There are
plum colored skirts and all shades of
blue ones: there are burgundies.'
browns. greens. corals. orchids, wines
and grays and every conceivable plaid
and stripe that can be evolved from
combinations Of these colors. Fashion
runs riot In skirt hues this season.

THE DAYS RESULT.

THE DAYS RESULT.
Is anybody happier because you pass his
way
Does any one remember that you spoke TO
him to-day
This day is almost over and its ,toiIing time
is through;
Is there anyone to utter now kindly word
Of you:
Did you give cheerful greeting to the friend
who came along,
Or a churlish sort of "howdy" and then
vanish in the throng:
Were you selfish, pure and simple, As you
rushed along your ways
Or is someone mighty grateful for deed you
did to-day.
Can you say to- night in parting with the day
that's slipping fast,
That you helped q single brother OF the many
that you passed.
Is Q single heart rejoicing over what You did
or said?
Does Q man whose hopes were fading now
with courage look ahead:
Did you waste the day or use it; was it well
or poorly spent:
Did you leave trail Of kindness or q scar Of
discomfort:
As you close your eyes in slumber do you
think that God would say,
You have one more tomorrow by the work
you did to-dayf L. E. T.

A girl who was knowing. yet not too fast;
He searched and searched, and found her n

Where Uncle Sam was born;
And where many . traveller spent the night
When he was tired and worn.
Beside the traveller ON the road
Who shared their hospitality,
Many friSnd has summered here,
From Boston and other localitys.
Of children scarcity there were, I'm sure,
There was only one, but there should have
been more,
Because Aunt EN-, with . smiling face,
Had very nice way Of bringing up Grace.
Grace, like her mother, has worked a she
could.
To help in all she thought was good.
And now that she's gone to live in Pressure
Isle,
We are glad she can come to Ne for while.
She usually comes In the early spring
When the beautiful birds begin to sing;
Her coming this time was . great surprise,
Yet most Of her neighbors and friends were
wise.
And now she's come back to the dear,folka
At home
With locks fast turning white;
She had planned for their golden wedding,
The pleasure we're having tonight.
And Is we 90 TO our several homes,
Wishing the dear ones good night,

The maps do not bear the name Of the

some Of the descendants Of the older families
have similar maps In their possession and
know something OF their history. would be
