 Masculine Liberality.
 Two men only of my acquaintance have to my knowledge upheld the use of cosmetics, as we consider them, at cer- tain times. One of these gentlemen is a foreign diplomat of distinction. He came to me when he received his appointment and said.
 My wife is the sweetest and best woman in the world. She is practicing an innocent deceit on me in using some little toilet cosmetics, but I do not think they can be very good, as they are appar- ent. She is to be presented at court, and to represent her countrywomen in a for eign ultra-fashionable city. Now, l don't want to hurt her feelings and I care noth- ing about the cosmetics if she will only use the very pest. WISH you WOulu lelI her so'
 I declined the delicate task, but con scented to select the few articles thought madame might use to advantage.
 The diplomat.carried the tiny parcel of cosmetics across the water without the knowledge of his little American wife, and three months later I received a let ter from which I make the following ex- tract:
 Minnie was simply radiant at the court ball, and what do you think, she wore the war paint you and I purchased. I applied it myself It gave her just the little color she required, and she was dazzling in white satin and diamonds"
 1 cannot but think the diplomat a vastly cleverer man than Nettie'S dicta- torial spouse.
