officer, her mother an ambltloua
and pleasure-loYlng woman, the
Prtncesa Jeanne ElUabeth of Molstein-
?KUbetK the daughter of peter the
Great, ha Inherited the ; "'
throne. She had been engaged to Karl
Alums of Holstsln. the vnel - J
little Sophia, who died before the i war.
rlsse. and aha waa therefore terf
In hla elster, Jeanne Elisabeth and the
child Sophia, , who were Invited to visit
the Imperial court at Moscow. A soon
as they reached RuaaUn territory they
were eurrounded by every luxury and
received marked attention.
The Tsaritsa, Elisabeth. WM wait
ing for her visitors; she waa
who loved luxury, and la aald to have
possessed 16.000 allk dreaaea and 1.000
pair of shoes. .T
The nephew of Ellaabeth waa wait
ing also; ahe had named hlra as the
heir to her throne. He waa atv thlm
time 1 years of age, a youth Inferior
In mind and In body, badly trained and
altogether unfitted for the high position
which he waa to occupy- He waa So
phias first cousin. It became evident
that Sophia was wanted In Buesla for
marriage. Frederick the Great had
detred the union In order to cement tne
friendship between Kussla and FruBala.
, The pretty Sophia pleased the Tsar
itaa and Peter-Ulrlch. It doee not ap
pear to have been necessary for Bophle
to be pleased. However, ahe lramedl
atcly began to study the Russisn lan
guage and literature, gave up her re
ligion and adopted the faith of the
ttreek church, waa betrothed to Peter,
and In 1745 waa married to him. the
ceremon lasting- from U a. rn. to 4
p. m. She was only 15 yeara old.
All that wealth could buy waa show
ered upon herr her . apartmenta were
hunt" witn cioin or anTr " .A
ann velvet embroidered In allver. HTS,
waa evident from the first, however,
that there could be no real happlnees
Jn the union. Peter waa Immoral, he
drank to excesa; he le even aald to
have struck hie wife; he kept hounds
in his bed chamber and leaned them
unmercifully; ha amused himself child
ishly.. ' '
Peter soon wished to divorce Sophia,
or Tekaterlna, as she waa named in her
new church baptism, Catherine, aa it Is
translated into English. Catherine alao
caused scandal at court through her In
trigues with court offlcala. She had
several children, the oldest. Paul, waa
rained by Elisabeth, who seemed to
have planned to place him on the throne
instead of the unworthy Peter. .
Catherine etudled deeply and Inter
ested herself In affairs of state. Elis
abeth died In 17 and Peter-Ulrlch be
came Peter III. Hie people did not
respect nor admire him. , He made some
few attempts at reform, through Cathe
rine's Influence, but there waa much
i nn . Munv nref erred ' that - the
ambltloua and talented Catherine should
rule. Thla feeling became so strong
Bh KailA a revolution against
v ti,ihiut and aunnorted by her
troops ahe received the oath of alle
vi.nM nf ker motile and ' overawed
Voter, who abdicated and was sent to
a secluded spot near Peterhoff, , where
,he waa killed four days later. It is
mm m tn he nulte nrobable that Cathe
rine connived at hla departure.
. Catherine II at the time of her com
ing to power was It yeara of age. She
has been described as nobis In bearing,
agreeable In feature and aa showing a
marked Individuality and character. 8he
had studied the laws of .other natfona
besides the complex ones of Russia,
and she prepared a new code of laws
for her people; she tried to liberate the
serfs, devised a, new system of educa
tion, sending to other countries for 1n
i tractors; founded schools of artillery
and engineering, a school of commerce,
of mines, of fine arte, undertook the
publication of a dictionary, and opened
schools for the higher . education of
women, which have had a deep Influ
ence on the national character." She
built a foundling hospital at St. Peters
burg, she beautified the city, built pal
aces and bridges. She erected a tnonu
.,t tn Patter tha Clreat which aaso-
elates er name with his. When the
i -i UAaruw In 1771 and the
dead lay unburied in the streeta Cathe
rine aent Gregory Orlof with 100.000
roubles to appoint a health commission
to check the disease and to allay the
frrnir of the people. ' .
Naturally Catherine throne was
foveted. She put down minor uprisings
mA than waa confronted with one -of
greater significance. The granddaugh
ter of Peter the Great waa maae a toot
and an uprising of some magnitude aup

imprisoned and was never heard of
Then Catherine took to . Increasing

When unheard of and unbelievable sums
were lavished In display ana pageantry.
The Polish struggle for liberty next
drew attention. One of the heroes of
brave little Poland waa Kosciusko, who
bad been an adjutant of Washington In
ur-ewn revolution. The three great
. powers, Austria, Russia and Prussia "
; feated the Poles and partitioned the
country. ... j ' . '
Catherine, through all these buy
"' years continued to study and to write.
: She wrote historical works, translated
the Iliad, wrote fiction and verse. 4 She
reigned for 14 years with power, and
for the mnat rirt with ' wisdom and
success. ' With all her faults and her
ambition she had a warm personality
and she kept the loyalty of her people.
Lord Brougham said of Catherine II:
"Her capacity was of an exalted order.
Her judgment was clear and aure; her
apprehension was extraordinarily quick,
her sagacity penetrating. " There have

7-'-.Ttw Wise Guest'
The vuest who Is asked to obme again
Is one who when she was a member of
the family exercised constant care and
tact to prevent misunderstandings, waa
watchful that ahe did not give ii-oudio
unnecessarily, did not try to manage
the household for the hostess, yet was
ready to enter with enjoyment into any
plan which was made for giving her a
good time. These are some or ine
things to do. Some of the don'te have
been tabulated by a writer In. the Phila
delphia Bulletin aa follows: -.
Don't. If you have other rrienas rn
the place, arrange to go to see them
or go put with them without first con
sulting your hostess."
Don t burn gas or eiectrio ugni in
your bedroom all night If you are stay
ing In a house where there Is only a
very limited Income.
Don't appear too observant or any
little hitch that may ocour in the do-
tneetlo machinery. ?
Don't come down In the morning be
fore the breakfast bell rings.
Don't absent yourself from tne ram-
llv circle for a long time without ex
planation. If you intend to write let
ters, have a nap, or go tor a wtuk.
say so.
Don't appear bored, however dull you
are feeling. Tour hostess la, in all
probability.' doing her beat to give you
a good time, and the leaat you can do
la to seem to appreciate her errorta.
Dress Fabrics.
.Enameled buckles la plaid colorings
are new. They look well on ribbon belts
for the shirtwaist suit.
The best choice of belt for an all'
white shirtwaist dress is of white em
broidered linen with mother-of-pearl
buckle. .
All the frocks that come from the
great Paquin are short-walsted. Bhoul
dera universally slope.
Over soft summer frocks will be
worn brief little jackets of silk or satin
without sleeves. '
Delightful . spring frocks are being
made of cream color Shantung silk with
stripes of chestnut brown.
A touch of white en the sprint suit
Is always essential to properly enliven
It Charming for this. use sre the collar
and cuff sets that may be- adjusted
readily, serving for several coats.
A new lace edged shield Is designed
for use in shirt waists and thin gowns.
ByiJ'e trimming it cleverly disguises
the sharp hard edge that Is so very
ugly when seen through summer fab
rics. This In no whit Interferes with
laundering as the lace used is a sub
stantial, durable thread.
Brusseia net is usee for a new
mourning veil, banded with three rows
of gros grain ribbon. The front la
rounded, ' the corners square, which la
quite a change from any ahapea hereto
foreshown, and gives a most chlo line
over face and hat. ,
There is nothing prettier for applied
skirt trimmings of silk ribbon, or chif-
fbn than the orees Key Border, ita out
line to be done In plsltlnga rather than
with a flat surface. .
Afternoon frocks In opalescent taf
fetah seem likely to play a prominent
part in the coming season, the taffetaa
being of the softest and most supple
moussellne variety.
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth Is wearing
a pair of oifl-rasnionea penaant ear'
rings, aet with dlamonda and rubles
fullv an Inch long, that dangle about
her collar and give her the look of a
Persian beauty.
She atlll wears touches of Alice blue

of red are. of course, too warm for this
