The Study of Manners.

A new course of study has been in
trcduced in the curriculum of the FL
mira Female College, being q system
attic study of manners. The Council Of
Etiquette formed in the college is made
up of representatives from all the col
lege classes, and to this council disput-
ed points are submitted. 1t looks up au-
thorities, considers weight of evidence
pro and con, and finally decides accord
ing to the best standards. Once every
fortnight a member of the council pre-
sents an original paper, to be read in
the college chapel to the rest of the
students. Some Of the subjects thus
presented have been manners in Pub
lie Places" Letters and Letter Writ
ing" "Chaperones and Their Uses and
others.
The broad question of can

Substitute for Eggshells.

The disturbing and altogether aston
fishing fact is that some ambitious mar
has invented a substitute for the egg
shell. 1t consists of a little china cup
with a water-tight top. The COOK Is
supposed to break the egg into the cup.
conduct the boiling process by guess
or the kichen clock-according to the
keenness of her culinary conscience
and serve egg, cup and all to the break:
faster in whose interest she is tOiling.
What bothers me is to see where the
advantage comes in. 1t cannot be one
of fastidiousness, for the original pack
age conveys not only the sealed guar
antee of the hen that the product has
not been tempered with, but to the
trained eye actually indicates approx
imately the date of manufacture. Pos
sibly the inventor wishes to avoid the
danger of breakage when eggs are
cooked in the gift PACKAGE provided
by nature, but most people do not send
their eggs to the blacksmith's shop to
be boiled, and under other circum-
stances the danger of breakage is too
slight to be considered. Perhaps-and
this is the most probable reason-the
invention is in the interest Of those peo-
pie who are too lazy to acquire the ac-
complishment of eating the egg from
it's shell, and, having a Jealous hatred Of
the adopts in this simple art, wish to
abolish tie aristocracy of egg-eaters.
There must be a good reason some
where for this apparently unnecessary
invention, and as I am unable to de-
duce it l wish the perpetrator would
rise and explain.-Kate Fields Wash
