The Placid Hub Girl.

During the first appearance of Henry
Irving as Louis XVI in Boston, lady
found herself seated next to party of
three intensely typical Boston girls, who
observed the development of the play
with that reserved, serene and critical
aspect for which their class is noted.
The lady was more enthusiastic than
they and at various points which the
actor made was not Chary of applause.
AT last, when a particularly strong stu
alton had been met and mastered, she
exclaimed, soto UOce: "Ah, he is, indeed
great" The three young women who
sat beside her Immediately put up their
eyeglasses and looked at her in a quiet,
but superior way, and the nearest 81 the
party, in a calm and very distinct voice
said: Pardon me, but have OF vet
experienced any thrill" Afterwards
in relating this incident, the lady SAID ::
81 had in my dress at the time long
shawlpin, and 1 was awfully tempted
to jab it into the cold creatures arm to
see if she would feel any thrill at that. 4"

We Hone Not.

The last edict of fashion, which &C
cording to Partisan journal. had its
origin in England, is the Punishment of
the time-honored stocking from the
feminine wardrobe. In future a lady's
delicate extremities are to be clad only
in double-soled boots. Modesty, of
course, would forbid slippers or the
fascinating Oxford ties under this regu-
latiOns, so We will hope boots with fleecy
Innings are to be the only wear.

Pearl, you are old enough to have

What have you done with it? Where
do you keep it? You are considered

the chances are, Pearl, that you are not;
and even if you were does it necessarily
follow because a couple of fellows look

Leave them alone, Pearly; it is possible
they are good deal harder than they
