One entire room of her private ulte Is said to he stocked with these special gifts. Whenever she expresses her Intention of attending a function of any kind her friends consider It fitting to send her another cane. Every anniversary she is forced to acknowledge a score or more of them. There are solid gold sticks, sliver sticks, exquisitely engraved; sticks that nre a marvel of the carver's art and sticks that contain priceless Jewels.
