Chicago, Nov. 16.--(P)-Alert Ameri-
can shop girls took Marie, queen Of
Rumania. in tow today and before she
left a large department store she had
bought five fur coats with others to
be sent to her suite for inspection. The
sight of the queen mingling in with
the shop girls developed crowd of
curious persons, who heard that Marie
was doing her Christmas shopping.
And Marie did not look at the price
tags of various other articles she Sc
lected.
A leather overnight case with enam-
ell fittings caught her eye and 1T was
sent along to her hotel. The over
night case was priced at $500.
At luncheon the queen delivered a
mild reproach to persons who have
suggested that her American trip was
planned with commercial motives or
that she is here in the interest of a
loan to her government.
ut is true, as you say of me- she
declared, that / came to America to
put Rumania on the map If you
have liked my face please do not de-
tach it from Rumania. I am here to
defend my country. 1t Is my life. Ru-
