 Under tha titl9 Feminine r7ues h L2Gdo9 7 Jesse Francis 5hepaaId gives n La leu7eiie Revao aa account of tae London 6aemaias.
 1hey are recruited, ho saya among t4e b8uaseoise as well as among the lower classes. Some of the most in. te1esting types cal be found in the bars or pablio houses of the west end, close to tie fashionable tAeaters. Among them e-a very many perfectly respecta- bic girls, who have chosen the career of \ barmaia in order to mako living end, especially if they are pretty. to got Q chance to catch 8 rich husband
 \ public house, situated at the angle CT cne of the principal thoroughfares, is both q gilded palace and 6 mine af gold. u exercises 8 strange fascination upon the peer country pumpkins who have Just enough to pay for drinl but the drde coming out of a theater, tho eoun. try sseenkorn, tho fashionable snob and the frequenter of the music haIls are al- ways 10 be found thero. It is among tkese that the barmaids hunt for a hus- tand. If there is one class of London society more stupid than another, it IS Chat ere which includes tho freqEentara Of tho public houses. With q pipe ill his mouth and q glass Of beer or whisky ill front of him the young Englishman. GFeGsed in fashic1abie style, with slight and elegant figure and regular features, remains standing fer mero than al hour paying pretty little e0mplimonta to ene CT several of these ladies.
 The barmaid Judges her eUstcmeTa oy the cUt of their clothes If you want to attract her attention, yeu must pre- sent yourself with a silk hat and handsome cane in your hand and suit cut in he latest fashion Yhe high hat IS de rigueur Without that tbeaa i8 Eo possible chance of success.
 .sIt was not without difficulty tha5 managed to get aa interview with oae of these young ladios, 8heae intelligence Eas equal 10 Der beauty. 4 first was astenished at finding so maeh irtel6. genee in aa English girl, but learned that sta was Irish. and that explained the mystery, Hs7 father was dead and her mother Was loft without resources. So she was determined to come to Lon don and lock fer q husband by posing behind bar in Pieeadilly.
 . I was hardly more than three days hefe, sho said with an aaiahle aEd roguish air, when l understood Y ny it was that so many pretty English girls 1oE get husbands. When they afe beautiful, they are generally stupid. When they Gza intelligent, they are eoIG, masculine ead ugly. Englishinen travel q great deal and meet in their ramblinga through the world very many sprightIy women, and they GO not care for pretty girls who don't know how to chat with them
 But in this mixture that comes here to drink and chat, said, how do you distinguish the Hlen of tho world from the othefs@
 !" I recognize them by three things, she said boldly, sby their Ggara, by their clothes and by their complexion. For the most part they are tall and thin, dressed in the latest fashion and have complexion more or less bronzed This last trait is the surest sign. Seeing that I looked astonisted, she added; Meth ing can be more simple. An English gentleman, if he has d fortune, passes three-fourths of his time hunting and in other open air exercise. The chaps who remain always in London have paler and moro delicate complexion, and. moreover. the expression of their faces is quite different from that Of the others
 Noticing with what attention ] was listening to her, sho continued The gentlemen that l refer t9 havo nothing elegant about them except their clothes, for their conversation lacks novelty How can sIlan who understands noth- ing but hugtiHg and cricket interest m intelligent woman? The conversation that gees on here iG the naae of Mt makes me tired, but these gentlemen aTe the easiest If all to deceive They arc great big ebil1een in everything except sport and politics.
 But you are always engaged, said, and ii is difficult tQ get aa oppor tunity to chat with you. You must al- ready have had several offers of mar riage?'
 @eI have been caly one month here, and have already had three. Two were from very rich spoltsmen, but riches alono won do for me. What am after, she added, laughing, ia al title. You know, must have a title.
 'sAt this moment the play ill ore ot the neighboring thoaters was over. and the public house was invaded by a crowd eff inen moro OF Ie5sat5llsh. 4he beautiful Irish girl kept herself selae- what aloof and only served customers that had the appcaraace of gentleHcA.
 "'Woll, left Londan. q few aeii5i's afterward, on returning hera' ! @"ii9ya
