public place without seeing fragrant dis

expected 10 know better. but often in the
behavior OF richly dressed women
who doubtless call, themselves ladies.
The error and yulgarisms alluded 10
are frequently committed through
thouVhtlessnesS or ignorance, and
those who are guilty Of these impro-
prieties would. doubtless, be surprised
and shocked if they were aware OF the
estimate placed upon them and Their
breeding by people who formed their
opinion from some little act, tone or
movement which had wholly escaped
their attention. For example, richly
dressed woman enters crowded car.

The First Ice-Palace.

Neya, 1879, the simplest means We're
used. First, the purest and most trans

into large blocks, squared with rule
and compass. aud carved with all the
regular architectural embellishments
No cement was used. Each block wher

single mass of ice. The effect it pro-
duced must have been infinitely more
beautiful than il it had been Of the most
costly marble its transparency and
blush tint giving it rather the appear
ance OF a precious stone.
In dimensions. the structure was fifty
six feet long. eighteen feet wide. twenty
one feet high, aud with walls three feet
in thickness. At each corner of the
palace was a pyramid of the same
height n the roof, of course built of ice,
and around the whole was a low pal
isade of the same material. The actual
length of the front view. including the
pyramids. was one hundred aud four
teen feet
The palace was built in the usual
STYLE OF Russian architecture. The
acads was plain. being merely divided
into compartments by pilasters. There
was A window in each division. which
