MRS. THOMAS CARLYLE.
One Occasion When the Clever Womaa
WAs Surprised and COMPOUNDED.


One Occasion When the Clever woma.
WAs Surprised and COMPOUNDED.
The brightest time for Mrs. Carlyle's
talk was during dinner Day after day
she poured forth witty stories. most of
which have almost forgotten, but In
any case it would be Dissertation TO ut
tempt to repeat almost any of them.
The characteristics of living men and
women were often dashed off in few
pithy words, not without satiricaf
touches. George Henry Lewes was not
one of her favorites, but l noted with
pleasure the way in which she spoke OF
the wonderful transformation effected
by the influence on him of George Eliot.
One of her experiences was when WIS.,
iting a shoemaker shop to make a pur-
chase, at the time when sandaled shoes
were worn, like those represented In
the original illustrations CT Dickens.
The sandals were of black ribbon, uncut
until the shoes were worn by the pur-
chaser at home. Mrs. Carlyle tried ON
many shoes, and each time that shoe
proved unsuitable she unconsciously
slung il on to her left arm. Being at
last suited, and having paid her bill,
she left the shop, and had walked lit
tie way when she heard shout behind
her. Looking back she saw the shop
man running after her, much excited
and insisting on her returning the stolen
shoes Looking down, she saw to her
surprise q number of shoes dangling
from her arm. The man Indignantly
asked her name and address. Her as
tonishment was such that her name was
obliterated for q time from her memory
and all she could recollect was her
maiden name, "Miss Welsh" The hu-
NOR in this tale was enhanced to those
who knew her from it's being so much
out Of keeping with her usual shrewd.
ness and self possession that no one
could have predicted it of her.
Her death scene, q year later, when
"Mr. Sylvester" as she named her
coachman. during drive, turned and
looked into the carriage-surprised at
receiving no orders rs to route-and saw
her sitting, lifeless, with q pet dog on
her knee, has often risen to my
thoughts.
Ny strongest impression was Of the
deep mutual love evidently subsisting
between Mrs. Carlyle and her husband.
Every subject we discussed seemed to-
recall thoughts Of him. II the piano
were opened, his song of the "blue day"
was referred to or asked for; IL any
literary man were mentioned, his opin-
ion Of him was given, or story was
told showing his relation to other men
of note. felt as if listening to the love
talk Of youthful engaged couple, and
when, in later days. Froude opened up
q fioodgate Of misunderstanding l felt
assured there was radical misconcep-
tion of the true state Of affairs. New

USE NO LATHER.
Chinese Shave Frequently With . Wet
Towel to Soften the Face.

Chinese Shave Frequently With . Wet
Towel to Soften the Face.
Considering that the inhabitants Of
the middle kingdom use the razor more
than any other nation in the world, it
is passing strange that they never dis
covered the advantages of lathering first,
says the Windsor Magazine. Dabbing a
warm wet cloth ON the chin or the scalp
is poor substitute for soap. Hair cut
ting, as we practice it in the west, is
to them "all unknown" except in q
few localities where foreigners are
numerous. A traveller when in the prov
ince of Kwantung sent for man to
shear his locks, and he began nibbling
away at his scalp without troubling
about such trifing as comb. At the
third snip the man stopped him and
asked him if he had ever cut foreign
er's hair before. Oh, yes. When was
that? Oh, last year, when he cut the
hair Of q German customs officer who
had died.
But in the matter of shaving there
are few more deft-considering the
latherless way he does it and the fact
that he uses little three cornered soft
iron knife as razor-than the Chinese
figaro. Was not the chief Of all his
tribe ennobled by an emperor ages back
for dexterously oleaving mosquito that
had settled on the imperial nose? One
advantage gained by patronizing the
Chinese barber-in the case of Euro
peans-is he doesn't mind coming to
your room every morning and shaving
you before you wash and dress. But the
native also generally waits to be rasee
before washing. sven il he has to wait
o week.

Chaperons Provided For.

An American girl who recently visited
an English man-of-war was much sur
prised to learn that a London fashion pa
per was among the periodicals subscribed
Tor by the committee on board. In reply
TO her inquiry, an officer stated that this
very feminine magazine was designed for
the distraction OF the chaperon. When in
port IN foreign countries where the official
class is English, there is, OF course when
iniulging in afternoon tea, more opportu-
nifty for scientific Cd discourse between the
pretty girl visitors and the officers when
the chaperon Is provided with amusement,
and instead OF an officer permitting him
self to be victimized TO the extent of carry
ing on a mild fiirtation with the dowager,
