SHORT LECTURE TO Young LADIEs-Have good
piano, or none. Be sure to have dreadful cold
when requested to sfavor the company Cry at
your curl papers in the drawingroon,. Drop your
handkerchief when you are going to faint. Mind
you are engaged il You don't like your partner.
Abjnre ringlets on wet day. It's vulgar to know
what there is for dinner. Nuts are bad il You are
going to sing. Never see black coat as long as
there is red one, and always give the preference
to the elder brother. Get married at al events.

shut down on them, and refused permission To do
anything Of the kind. Upon reporting this fact to
the Emperor Nicholas he was surprised; but ha
