Princess Margrethe, Denmark's heiress apparent, was the hit of the evening on TV recently when she gave a lively, informal account of an exports-building trip she had made through the Far East. Danes have had a warm spot for Margrethe's kid sister ever since the King allowed in public years ago that the little girl was "strong-minded" and had "bad habits."

...feet were the hardest part. First there was a gold ring to fit onto each big toe, and then two tinkling anklets to snap into place. Finally the soles of her feet were painted red. But it was not just for kicks. Heiress Barbara Mutton, 51, a Protestant, was marrying Laotian Painter-Chemist Prince Raymond Doan Vinh Na Champassak, 48, a Buddhist, and they were doing it his way. Babs had never tried a Buddhist ceremony, and so this time around it was a sari affair at her $1,500,000 estate near Cuernavaca, Mexico. There were seven tiers...
