"ClubabIe" Women.

London women do not seem to be
what Jennie June calls ''clubable"
women, for, notwithstanding the in
creasingly high place they occupy in
sport and recreation. their amuSementS
are, as rule, unorganiZed. The Row
is each year crowded with equestri-
ennes, and in the winter, too, when the
riding is something besides "genteel
cantering." All manner of smart
ponies and carts and jaunting cars go to
the pace continually, and last season a
lady "tooled" four-in-hand each day
around the drive, her horse held splen-
didly in hand. The prejudice against
the cycle for ladies is fast dying out,
and though at present not so general in
London as among the provinces, one
may expect to see 1t soon commanding
the situation in London streets.

THE MENU IN FEMININE HANDS
How Lovely Woman Founders
Through a Restaurant Bill of

How Lovely Woman Founders
Through a Restaurant Bill of
Fare.
Did anybody ever observe without
amusement woman order luncheon in
a restaurant? There Is certainly moth
ing funnier, unless it is two women Or
dering.
Some one has aptly said that, "were it
not for the eyes of the sterner sex upon
them, it is more than probable that
women would begin with ice cream and
end with soup"
OF course there are exceptions, and
many ladies who are accustomed to din e
and lunch at hotels, either alone or wit h
their husbands, become as fastidious as
the men. But take the ordinary fair
and youthful creature; no matter how
hungry she may be, she either tries to
get out as cheaply as possible or else
she orders the most incOngruous dishes.
The latter class will go INTO fashion
able hotel restaurant, perhaps two to-
gether, and order soup for one and then
fill up on bread and rolls, which. with
the best butter, makes very tolerable
repaSt. At least, so says leading
hotel man.
"Thus," he continued, chad we no
been obliged TO charge extra for bread
and butter served with soup only, they
would get off for 10 cents apiece, and
yet have the advantage of the best sur
roundings, as well as the most excellent
table service.
"With others it is not matter of
money at all, but simply of queer tastes
and ideas, and frequently an ignorance
of the nature or amount of the dish or
dered. Some who intend to have an ex-
tended luncheon will order soup for
two when there are only ladies, al
though as starter soup for one would
be plenty.
"Others will order lobster or chicken
salad. with glass of milk, and this will
be followed up with an order for Ice
cream or charlotte russo, with chocolate
ecaires to cap the climax.
"Many look at the menu without its
conveying any idea to them, and then
order at random from pure helplessness.
However this may be, woman
seldom orders soup, then fish, and
winds up with a well-cooked entree,
with small cup of cafe noir if she
cares for it.
''But, after all, perhaps the feminine
palate differs from the masculine one,
and in any case if the ladies are satisfied
no one should complain.

Tobacco Among Women.

The use of tobacco among women is
on the increase in France. and even in
London it is not unusual to see lady
produce her silver or enameled case IN
the drawing room. Cigarettes are giving
place to cigars in Paris, and some fears
are entertained of the smoking habit
among women becoming uncomfortable.
The we'll known writer, Mined IAtour,
defends the use of the weed by her sex,
and insists that if it is good for men it
is not injurious to women. while to
brain workers it is great help and SOL
ace. She would not, however, give
women quite the same license as men,
and would restrict them to two cigars
and few cigarettes day.

MY LADY OF LONG AGO.

I've picture, somewhere,
OF sedan chair,
From which lady looks;
'Tis proud young face.
And a queenly grace
Encircles her round about;
And for want OF another name to bestow
I call her my Lady of Long Ago.
And / watch her meanwhile
AS a naughty smile
Creeps into her handsome eyes.
For knight stands there,
With lovers air
And look of glad surprise:
And he kisses her han1, as bending low
He smiles on my Lady of Long Ago.
For then, as to-day,
Young love found way
To the heart of my lady fair,
For her eyes grow bright
With tender light
AS she sits in her sedan chair;
AS she lifts her fan there teli-tale glow
On the cheek of my Lady of Long Ago.
