cry way. Believing

chatter about yourself and your affairs,
in which he can possibly have no inter

the price of which has been told you,
nor handle articles easily stained or
broken, nor persist in trying on every
hat and bonnet in the establishment
when you know you have not the slight

LoNDoN's FOUR HUNDRED.


Until 1870 the AristocratC Clique Scarce
ly Exceeded the McAuister Limit.
Sir William Fraser, in his remin-
iscences of Lord Beaconsfeld, has oc-
casion to comment on the narrowness
of the limits which circunscribed FASH
ionable society a generation Or so ago.
From 1S47 to 1870, he says, London So
ciety consisted of from three hundred
TO five ohundred persons These
were the persons to be met at the best
balls and evening parties. The
charmed circle was guarded from the
intrusion of outsiders with the utmost
jealousy. Everyone knew everyone
else, at least by sight; and you met the
same partners night after night for
three months"
Recent disclosures have made it
clear, if demonstration was needed,
that no such exclusive fashionable
clique exists now, or, if it still exists,
that it no longer enjoys its old prestige.
Social distinction-to use phrase
which, however clumsy, nevertheless
has precise meanIng-may be achieved
by almost anyone who cares to pursue
it, provided he or she makes proper use
of some personal and peculiar qualif-
cation. Any single qualification, used
the right way.will suffice; none is imper-
ative. Breeding is not essential where
there is wealth; the lack both Of breed
ing and money may be compensated
by good looks or impudences
Mrs Ponsonby de Tompkyns may be
familiar with duchesses, Sir Georgius
Midas may entertain the highest in the
land without either of them suffering
the affronts or exciting the ridicule
which Mr.. Punch has imagined. So
ciety, which was once clique, has
now become q crowd, and a highly
mixed crowd, in which may be met all
sorts and conditions of men and
women. Under the present dispense
ton the privileges once monopolized
by rank and birth are now within the
reach of persons with neither Some
people are admitted only because they
are rich, other because they are talked
about; others only, because they are in
way amusing. ng.-Chicago Herald.

NANNIE'S PICNIC.
How 1t Brought a Great JOY to
Hazel Duncan.

Hazel Duncan put on the last white
velyety layer spread more icing and
sprinltled on feathery, grated cocoanut
until her cake looked like a small snow

'It's lovely Isn't it, Mamie?
don't think they'll need any coaxing to

"Yes'm = NOM" said Mamie, abb
sently.
Now for the chicken salad. Did
you put the celery in the ice chest as
told you? All right Go get it, please,
and bring up the eggs-ten of them
and little butter" aud Hazel famed
herself vigorously with newspaper
while Mamie obediently went to the
cellar.
Pretty soon she came back again,
and put the celery and eggs upon the
kitchen table.
"Dar, now! clar fo'got de butter!

self She forgot to cream the butter
and sugar for her cake when told her
to, and threw me back with my work
half an hour.
Here Mamie reappeared with the
butter, and after deposit ing it with the
celery and eggs, began chopping the
chicken. Presently Hazel saw tear
or two roll down the black cheeks and
splash off on the table. She was gu ite
startled Mamie was usually such a
merry, happy-go-lucky girl that it
really seemed shocking to see her in
tears.
What's the matter, Nanuie," she
asked, kindly.
For answer the girl dropped her
chopping-Inife, and gathering up her
gingham apron, buried her face in its
ample folds and cried as II her heart
would break.
What is it? Are you ill?" persist
cd Hazel, her tender heart full of SYM
pathy.
"Ohl 'tain't nothin'-don't pay no re-

Miss Hazel, sobbed Mamie.
But there must be something; IL

Il is mos ashamed to tell you, Miss
Hazel, you an yo' maw's allus so good
