THE PRINCESS OF WALES.
The Princess of Wales’ long retirement has enabled her to save much of her pin-money—£10,000 a year —and bring it up to a comfortable amount. In the past England’s Alexandra has had plenty to do with that allowance, what with dressing herself most elegantly, her daughters very much less so, and in fitting out the boys with numberless odds and ends. Times (remarks an exchange) have changed. Her children have an annual income of L36,00C to divide among themselves, and the Princess has lived alcof from London society since the death of her eldest son, thereby incurring but little expense in representative dress, and steering clear of a good many other costs. However, reports from Eredensborg indicate that her Royal Highness still retains her former interest in apparel of becoming character.
