The snobbishness of the newly rich
in Frisco has become well-wOrn
theme, but we think the following an
ecdote "out-Herods Herod" in snob-
ocracy. Among the acquaintance of q
TaylOr-Street magate was a representa-
tive of the ancient State of Virginia,
who prided herself upon her F. F. w.,
inwardly considering she was the one
who paid the compliment in calling,
and was not the one complimented in
being received. But one day, soon after
the ascendency of Mob Hill aristocracy,
she was amazed, on presenting her
card at the Taylor-Street mansion, to
find the servant inspect her from head
to foot, and then return her card with
the remark: MY mist ss' orders are
very strict, mum; sorry can't admit you
to-day, but we don't receive people
twice in the same costOom." Another
resident of the same locality, when re-
vising her visiting list on her husbands
sudden accession to some unexpected
bonanza, struck from it the names of
those ladies she had previously known
who did not own carriages, remarking:
Zone must draw the line somewhere
What was her delight, short time aft
erward, at seeing drawn up before her
door the carriage of lady whose ac-
quaintance she was more than anxious
to cultivate, but her annoyance and
chagrin was unbounded at receiving
from her servants lips the message:
F" Mrs. Elites compliments. and she has
sent her carriage to call on Mrs. CASH"

YOUTH is the period of novel effects
when all the world is fresh, and new
and striking Impressions crowd in
thickly on the mind. Consequently it
takes much less to produce a given
amount of mental excitation in child
hood than in after life. In looking
back on this part of our history. we re.
call for the most part just those events
and scenes which mostly stirred our
minds by their strangeness, novelty.
etc., and so impressed themselves upon
the tablet of our memory; and it is this
sense of something out of the ordinary
beat that gives the characteristic color
to our recollection. This being so. we
unconsciously transform the past occur
renee by reasoning from our present
standard OF what is impressive. Who
has not felt an unpleasant disenchant-
ment IN revisiting some garden or park
that seemed wOndrous paradise to his
young eyes? All our feelings are capa-
bic OF leading us into this kind of iliu-
sion. What seemed beautiful or awful
to us as children is now pictured in our
imagination as corresponding to what
moves our mature minds to delight or
awe. People who little outshone our
own circle of friends, perhaps in style
of dress and living, seemed to us as
children little short of Princes and
Princesses. Could we actually see
them with our present eyes, we should,
alas! no longer find the glory in which
our young fancies had encircled their
heads.-C0rnhiU Magazine.
