one on a shopping tour.
A recent bride received one' of the
loveliest and most beautiful fitted
traveling cases I have ever seen. In
stead of the usual gold, silver, and
enameled initials on the ivpry fittings,
they were mounted with tho new and
beautiful marcasite work.
It has been so difficult to get away
from these conventional mountings,
that I feel sure that the exclusive and
those who do not consider expense
ivill receive marcasite with warm
welcome. Marcaiitc is a very rough
and sharply hand-cut silver in nar
row bands, forming a design mounted
on a colored enamel. The Ivory lu
tings I saw were in the bride's own
favorite color, pink enamel and mar
casite mounted on the ivory.
Tho manner in which the silver or
marcasite monograms were made, and
the narrow edging of the enamel disk
and the heart-shaped bowknot that
finished the top, gave the effect of a
mounting of diamonds and enamel.
I understand that these monograms,
made chiefly for handbags, can be ob
tained in any color or design one
desires. It is one of the very newest
importations from Paris.
At the Shoreham the other evening
the wife of a well-known French
diplomat wore white satin slippers
with a small bowknot mounted on
lavender with marcasite. They har
monized beautifully with her Uvonder
frock.

Easily "Distinguishable From All the Cross-Bred,
Ring Streaked and Striped Hybrids," Says Mrs.
Mary Austin Public Should Encourage
the Hunting of Soul Mates.
By MARGUERITE MOOERS MARSHALL.
HE real romance is the right
T
that. To marry the person who loves one and by whom one is
loved, to keep on loving and being loved so long as both do
live that is the only perfect and possible ideal for men and women.
Not a tender memory of the schoolday sweetheart you didn't marry,
not a feverish infatuation for the siren you can't marry, but mate
love for the wife whom you rightly chose, is the love-life best for you
and for society.
That is the conviction voiced by Mrs. Mary Austin, novelist, es
sayist, in her spirited and skilful defense of monogamy now running
in a national weekly. Mrs. Austin's papers are based on her forthcom
ing book, "Love and the Soul-Maker," in which she discusses at
length most of the problems of love and marriage. Her solution of
theni has left me wondering whether she is the most radical of re
actionaries or the most reactionary of radicals.
This is how she describes the love of two persons united in the
right sort of marriage, the love which she has named "mate-love."
"Mate-love is distlivguibhable from
all tho cross-bred, ring-streaked and
striped hybrids, all tho pale stalks
come up in unsunned cellars of fortu
itous celibacy, by three high signs. It
manifests as a desire for permanent,
public, and exclusive relations.
"Right love rejoices not only in
calling society to witness, but in
inviting tho attention of whatever
gods may be. And the faith on
which it dares so much Is the faith
in its own permanence. It is the
distinguishing mark of mate-love
to deem itself undying. It is tho
Btroko which ushers marriage on the
scene. Marriage means stable con
ditions, and that means the im
provement of tho race."
"Vou believe that marriage acts as a
preservative not only of tho social and
religious virtues, but of love itself?" I
asked.
Love Keeps On Growing All the Time.
"When a marriage is right in the
first place, and is continued under
proper conditions, love Jncreasea In
stead of diminishing or disappearing.

"For example, too constant assocla

"Of course, tho boy won't believe

If vou could show him a scientiilc diag

"You say." I reverted to her main

"Yes." she replied firmlr.

"Nature Is not wasteful." added Mrs.
Austin. "If tho tnato dies, or in some

righteous relation is perfectly possible.
"There used to be, an Ide-a that ono

"Are you optimistic about the future

'Rich Court of Justice with the
his fanc. Neither military nor civil pomp was wanting. The" avenues were
lined with, grenadiers. The streets were kept clear by cavalry. The peers,
robed in gold and ermine, were marshaled by the heralds under Garter Klns-at-arms.
The judges In their vestments of state attended to give advice on
points of law.
Near a hundred and seventy lords, three-fourths of the upper house as the
upper house then "was. walked in solemn order from their usual place ot as

against the fleets and armies of Franceand-Spain. The long procession was
closed by the Duke of Norfolk, Earl Marshal ofthe realm, by the great digni
taries and the brothers and sons of tho King.
Last of all came the Prince of Wales, conspicuous by his fine person and
noble bearing. The gray old walls were hung with scarlet. The long gal
leries were crowded by an audience such as has rarely excited' :he fears or
the emulations of an orator. - There were gathered together from all parts of
a great, free, cnlishtencJ and prorperous empire grace and femate loveliness,
wit. and learning, the representatives of every science and every art.
There were seated round the Queen the fair-haired young daughters of the
house of Brunswick. There the ambassadores of great kings and common
wealths gazed with admiration on a spectacle which no other country In
the world could present. There Siddons. in the prime of her majestic
beauty, looked with emotion on a scene surpassing all the imitations of the
stage. There tho historian ot tho Roman empire thought ot the days when
Cicero pleaded the cause of Sicily against Verres, and when before a,, seyite
which still retained some show of freedom Tacitus thundered s.gainst the op
pression of Africa. There were seen side by side the greatest painter and tl.e
greajest scholar of the age.
There appeared the voluptuous charms of her to whom the heir of the
throne had secretly plighted his faith. There, too, was she, the beautiful
mother of a beautiful race, tho St. Cecilia, whose delicate features, lighted
up by -love and music, art has rescued from the common decay. There were
the members ot that brilliant society which quoted, criticised and exchanged
repartee under tho rich peacock hangings ot Mrs. Montague.
The sergeants made proclamation. Hastings advanced to the bar and bent
his knee. The culprit was indeed not unworthy of that great presence. lo had
