and met quite a gay party of students
and pleasant women from the world"
The orthodox tea was served by a pretty
girl and such clatter of tongues you
never heard. 1 think we talked about
everything-all at the same time-and we
were very elegant, too. We do not forget
our manners, 1 assure you.

company viii start on a trip next week
They are a splendid looking company of
young and handsome girls, all over the
average height When they array them
selves in their classic white draperies and
hang over them demure cloaks that sud-
denly thrown back display all the colOrs
of the rainbow under the brilliant hydro
gen light, you wink your eyes and stand
up to see, as they group together noise
lessly and swift as daTting swallows,
in pictures that are truly living.
They create an immense sensation
wherever they go. A pianist usually
conservatory student, accompanies them,
and either a Violinist or a vocalist from
the conservatory. A varied programme is
thus presented Of tableaux, music and rec
itation. 1t is the best possible opportunity
for public work for students of music and
elocution who intend to be public per
formers. Those who do not care for that
kind of thing, or who intend to teach only,
come members of the company. 1t is en-
tirely optional.
Now that the great autocrat has gone
we are very glad of a little glimpse we
had of him two or three years ago. We
went to Kings chapel one Sunday morn
ing, really intent on the service, and
were rewarded for our single-mindedness
by a prolonged view of DR. Holmes We
were in the gallery, facing the pulpit, his
pew was the second to our right, and
there he sat, wrapped up to his ears in a.
great sable lined coat, but his round, kind
face and merry eyes could be plainly seen.
He was such a little old gentleman you
could not help loving him, even without
reading his wonderful writings, and be-
cause of his beautiful soul the whole
world loved him and mourns for him.
Just here some one poked her head in our
sanctum. Has anybody a copy of Mrs
Browning?"
