Green, traveling agent for Yegen Bros. of Billings, was here Tuesday. Ben Drake of the Billings broom factory was a business caller Tues day. Mrs. Guenther was a business caller RULES OF ROYAL ETIQUETTE Royal etiquette in England is con tinually changing, and those who are privileged to come into social contact with royalty must keep well informed on such matters. As regards male at tire, it used, for example, to be strict etiquette that none but the regulation white tie should be worn by any guest asked to meet royalty at dinner. Since the innovation of the dinner jacket, however, this rule has been changed. Guests wearing dinner Jackets must wear a black tie, never a white one; but when the ordinary evening tail coat is donned, it would be an error to wear a black tie. Of recent years it has become eti quette for people who meet the king socially to address him as "sir" in stead of the more formal "your majes ty;" and the queen, in the same way, prefers dg be addressed as "madam" instead di "your majesty." Some years back their majesties were only ad dressed as "sir" or "madam" by the members of their household and inti mate friends. Ladies of the court are now permit ted to sit down when her majesty sits without being asked to do so by the queen-a ceremonial rigorously in sisted on by the late queen. Whenever a lady has the honor of a private call from the queen, it is strict etiquette that if there are any other callers present when the queen arrives they must leave at once, un less requested by her majesty to stay on. The lady of the house must also deny herself to other callers-of course, excepting royalties-while her majesty is in the house. The lady of the house must also accompany the queen downstairs when her majesty departs. When any one entertains the king or queen it is strict etiquette that no one who has not been presented at court should be asked to meet their majesties. A royal invitatiqn is, of course, al ways issued in the form of a com mand, and it used to be strict etiquette that it should be accepted unless the recipient was ill or had some other very urgent excuse for declining it. Nowadays, however, there are certain royal invitations-principally those for large state balls and other entertain ments--which are not required to be answered at all; but a command in vitation to dinner or lunch with their majesties must be promptly answered, and any one honored with such a com mand must hasten to obey unless pre vented by circumstances beyond his control. Formerly when the sovereign was a guest at any private house it used to be against etiquette for any one to retire before his majesty, but this rule is not nowadays so closely observed; but when both their majesties are present no one must retire before her majesty has said good night to the hostess. At any private entertainment it is against etiquette when their majesties are present to give an artiste an en core until the king or queen has done so. It would be very much against eti quette when the court is in mourning for any one entertained by the king or queen not to wear mourning also. It used to be a rule that ladies attend ing their majesties' courts should carry bouquets. The Journal, delivered every week day. 50c month.
