honor 10 I'll such meni.l Offices. and It
can do no harm Tor a foreigner occasionally
to call them by their proper names. The
Queen, 1t may be remarked, seems to have
been about the only person in England
who appreciated the situation. To the
courtiers, as 10 our writer on etiquette, it
was very solemn occasion; it appeared
dreadful thing TO say right out loud that
these noble lords and ladies were mere
servants. But the mistress saw the fun Of
this though they did not. 1t is said that
when the noble footman reported the
answer OF the young American to the re-
quest that he should dine with the house,
hold, she leaned back In her chair and
laughed rs she had not done for years.
"Did he really say that?' she asked.
Then he shall not dine with the sery-
ants" So Jesse dined with his hostess.
We believe that one Of these days when
they get rid OF some Of their iiummery
tho English people themselves will admit
that the American was right. Meantime
II becomes every lover Of his country to
look after these Anglomaniacs who would
destroy our infant aristocracy by mixing
up indiscriminately guests and servants at
q dinner party. Our trouble is that we
cannot as yet obtain a supply Of English
lords and ladies'. German noblemen we
have in plenty, with an occasional specimen
from France or Italy, but the English seem
to stay at home. Intiine, when Ireland gets
home rule and all her landlords are
ruined, and when VIC have destroyed Eng
land by establishing free trade, all this
may be changed. Then the nobility may
be compelled to emigfate and earn an hon.
est living by going out to domestic service.
II they do, the rule may be then relaxed,
but until that time it seems to US better
that the gentlemen invited TO dinner by a
lady should dine with the hostess rather
than be sent to the cook in the kitchen OF
| tho grooms in the stable.
