This lady has for some years taken up a leading position among lady exhibitors, both in this country and the continent of Europe, one of her Collies carrying off the Dholpur Five Hundred Guinea Gold Cup at the Royal Botanical Gardens Show on the last occasion of its being offered for competition by Collies, when it was won by Old Hall Beatrice, and caused considerable sensation. This cup was offered by His Highness the late Maharajah of Dholpur, and is looked upon as one of the blue ribbons of the year in the Doggy World.

Her Highness has spared neither trouble nor expense to get together a grand team of Collies, and has had the advantage of the advice and active co-operation of Mr. John Powers, himself a leading breeder, exhibitor, and judge of Collies.

THE PRINCESS DE MONTGLYON'S COLLIES.

By permission of the Kennel Gazette.

Other well-known inmates of Her Highness's kennels are Old Hall Shamrock, Lily Rightaway, Champion Barwell Masterpiece, Lady Clinker, and Ormskirk Iodone, all Rough-coated Collies; and Jock, and Worry of Argenteau, Fox-terriers.

The kennels at Chateau d'Argenteaux, in Belgium, are well appointed, and every care and attention is given to the comfort and well-being of the animals, under the personal supervision of the Princess, who takes great interest in her pets.

Her Highness was born Princess de Montglyon and Countess d'Argenteau, and is the wife of the Due d'Avaray.

I am sure even these few words will be interesting to my readers about one holding an envied position amongst Doggy People, with whom she is deservedly popular. Besides the portrait of Her Highness, I am able to give pictures of some of the celebrated Collies in Her Highness's kennel.
