LADY SMOKERS. Rules for Their Guidance Prepared by aParIsian Expert.

From the London Telegraph.l
 Smoking is habit which is not confined to men in France and other continental countries. Many Parisians now indulge in cigarettes, even in their boudoirs, and c recent writer, who is herself smoker, has drawn up set of rules for the benefit of fashionable female votariss of the "wesd." Some of these regulations are rather peeu- liar, and the wonder is that it should be at all necessary to insist upon their obserV- ance.
 Never, says the guide, philosopher and friend of fashionable fumeuses-never smoke in restaurant or out of doors even when in company with your husbands. Never light cigarette after o'clock tea, even if your most intimate friends only are present. Smoke after your meals at home, either in 8 room ad hoo or in your boudoir. Do not hold the cigarette between your teeth or at the sides of your mouths. Such low tricks are even unworthy of well bred men, and you must be mindful to carry the cigarette gracefully to your lips, and to blow gentle wreaths of etherialized essence around you from your mouths, or, if you like, down from your noses. Be extremely careful not to allow any ashes to fall on your dresses or your carpets, and be sure that your cig- arctic holders and their cases, your match boxes, your ash trays and your general ap- pliances for the enjoyment of tobacco be as delicate and artistic as all objects used by ladies should be. s.-.--
 By attention to these rules, concludes their compiler, funeuse may frequently make herself additionally interesting and pi- quante. Blowing clouds of smoke from the nose may even develop into most faseina- ting operation, provided the smoker has 8 pretty proboscis. and that the profile of it only be seen by the admiring cavalier or suitor as the blue gray vapor descends deli cately from the nostrils. The guide might Hr-r@ l1-1 which would be well worth their attention had she said: ''Go and see the Hottentot women smoke in the Jardin des Plantes." The three or four brown skinned beauties from the Bush who are now exhibiting them selves daily to the Parisians have 8 way of inhaling and emitting tobacco smoke which would be worthy of the emulation of the most artistically disposed Parisian fumsuse It is true that the Hottentot ladies smoke big cigars which they beg from visitors, and that they do not disdain the short black pipe of clay, but they have fine way of manipu- lating the numerous cigarettes which are also given to them gratis, and they emit the smoke from their rather wide nostrils in perfectly natural and even graceful manner.
 THINKS MARRIAGE A SUCCESS. Nearly All of the Duke of Devonshire's
 Vast Wealth Attained Through Mat.
 rimOnY.
 Ishefield Letter to Pittsburg Times
 By the bye, the mention of the Duke of Devonshire brings to mind the fact that this family has grown rich chiefly by marriage. Of eouse, the Cavendishes-that is the fam- name-had to make a start in order to make them eligible matches for hsirssses. The first Cavendish was poor squire in Suffolk in the reign of Henery VIII. He made his start in life by being one of the Commiss- toners for the surrender of the monasteries, and, of course, some of this property adher- ed to him in process. He married Bess of Hardwicke, Derbyshire widow, who prae. ised matrimony as 8 payiug speculation, and had persuaded her frat husband to leave her his property. He sold his property in the south and bought land near hers, and when he died the frugal Bess married Sir William St. Loson conditions that if they had no child ren Sir Williams property should go to her. Then he died and she married az ain, her vic tim being the Earl of Shrewsbury this time. She made similar bargain with him, and /, each party having son and daughter, they arrainged double marriage. It was their second son who became peer under James I. Earl of Devonshire, the fourth Earl being awarded dukedom for the support of Will jam of Orange. The fourth Duke, who lived ia the time of George III, married the only daughter of Earl of Burlington and Cork, the heiress of the old family of Clifords and of self-made family of the Boyles-self- f-made by means worthy of poodle Alderman. This lady brought to the family large estates in in Yorkshire, Cumberland and Ireland. The second son of this Duke married the only daughter of the Earl of Northampton, who brought with her considerable estates in Sussex, and inheriting the title, became the fifth Duke. His wife was the beauiful Ouch ess who gave kisses for votes and was painted by Gainsborough. Thus the spoil of the monAsteries and the judicious marriages of three centuries have made the Marquis of Harrington, the Unionist 1eade~, heir to 193,- 215 acres in the three kingdoms, with an Sr- nal rental of about $S50, 900.
 If the estate of many more members of the House of Lords hed been acquired by no worse means than the Cavendishes have re- sorted to then they would have small cause to be ashamed. Unhappily too many of them owe their wealth to a contempt foS mar riape and not to marriage itself
