French soirees" are a recent London
fad. AS their name indicates, they are
evenings of French with programmes
which include French conversation,
recitations, and readings. with music.
tea, and coffee. The fashion might
be introduced in New York So
ciety with the really profitable
result of improving many social anna
teurs in the French language. 1t is the
exception, which is sufficiently promi-
nent to be commented upon, when an
American woman speaks Partisan
French and speaks it well. An English
woman, on the contrary, usually knows
that language as we'll as her own, and
frequently Spanish and Italian as well.
The French of English children begins
in babyhood-a practice that is every
year obtaining more and more widely i'll

A French bonnie used to be regarded
as all extravaganza permissible or in
dulgcd in only by persons of wealth,
and such as kept up large establish
ments. This idea no longer exists. The
mistress of modest household finds
that her one servant even may be a
Frenchwoman as easily as she may be
Irish or Swedish, and often she is such.
The coming generation will undoubtedly
be accomplished French scholars.
One of these chatelaines of moderate
income, who is also the mother of three
children still OF tender age, employs a
method that may be of value 10 some
other housekeepers similarly situated.
