A Briton was once on a visit to an

grounds they passed pile of potatoes.

"Oh, fair, but I've seen much larger
ones in England"
"What do you think of those cabbages

''Snall; much larger al home"
"You can't beat those squashes, any
way" muttered the host, as they passed
some specimens of that vegetable.
"Oh, yes we can-beat them to pieces.
The Yankee was chagrined, and be.
thought himself of revenge. Before darl

The usual impression obtaining con-
cerning creoles is that they are all of them
possessed of dark and swarthy complex
ions, hair black as the ravens wing and
ewes of "ebon darkness" A New Orleans
acquaintance says that many have lily
white compiexlons, golden locks and eyes
of "heaven's own blue" The creole girl
is usually refined and dainty, sensitive
and sympathetic, light hearted and sunny
tempered. She is usually brought up
quietly and is content to remain at home.
Of course the majority OF creo,es are
dark-they are nut-brown maidens.
