These wreaths, composed only of foliage, seem to be in special fav- or this leason. At a garden party in England last season the Duchess of Marlbor- ough wore a wealth of gorgeous jew- els. also the famous Marlborough pearls.

This pomp was because the entertainment was given in hounor ot Queen Victoria, and the public had requested to see the heir apparent and the Princess in the glitter of court dress. They were representing Her Majesty. the Queen. The Princess of Wales were white sa- tin, exquisitely embroidered with fine lines of jet. The front of her bodice was simply a mass of diamonds, while her neck and throat were almost com- pletely covered by the strings of pearls that drooped almost to her waist.
