AMERICAN LADIES IN PARIS.
There is something almost melan-
choly In the state of mind of many
lady travellers on their arrival in ET-
rope, especially when. such are without
the executive support of husband and
brother. Their discoutented osCilin-
tions are then unlimited. They ask
you, can they get into n French family
where they can hear nothing but
French spoken, or into some apart
ment where they Gun have American
comforts? They do not like their board
ling house-their sheets are only washed
/ u
long, cheap, yard-measure sort, their
breakfasts consist merely of roll and
coffee. They ask, do you think the food
nourishes you in Paris as it does at
home? Would Dresden be pleasant
city TO passNthe winter in? And Nice,
how Is that for n winter residence, and
Is 1t very expensive? Then, besides

much TO the edification of her weeping

hunger, and drank successfully three
cups of broth. Her hunger, however,
increased TO such an alarming extent
that, TO satisfy her voracity, provisions
were sent for to neighboring hotel.

EAR RINGS WITHOUT EAR PIERCING.
A smart fellow in London has dis
covered Il way to enable ladies to wear
ear rings without having their ears
pierced. The listening is managed
thus: The rosette in, front of the ear
ring top is the head of a screw, which,
by being partly Withdrawn, allows the
wires To DseParate, ,Rnd, on being screwed
back, when adjusted, presses the wires
on the lobe of the ear; the wires are SO
lConstructed that they do not uncom-
fortably press the ear; in fact, the fas-
tening, instead of entering the flesh,
clasps it. This ingenious invention
will recommend itselftOthose who are
/ Predjudiced againstear piercing, if they
are not fearful that the ear ring will be
unsafe, thus worn. ~ F

right and wholesome. Some young la

I Whoeveris near enough to you to salute
you, are In your family, and all others
may be safely considered as not in your
