Reacfionary Girls.

The newest thing in girls Is what Is called "The Reactonary Girln The mo- If. so to speak. of this particular brand of girl may be expressed by the one word, "grandmother." She strives to speak, walk, dress and generally conduct herself after the manner -or, at least what she supposes to be the manner-of her grandmother. Miss Jane Austin is her ideal of what polite novelist should be, and she goes into ecstasies over Herrick,-''he is the sweetest poet. She holds up her hands at tailor-made gowns, and such thing as a bicycling, golfing or hunting costume would cause her to -"trow a fit"-if the phraseology of "Chimmy'' Fadden may be used in such a connection. Her gowns must be either very long-waisted or very short waisted, and high in the neck. Starch is unknown to her, and everything must be soft, clinging, flowing and generally limp.
 Headaches, hay fever and malaria are unknown, but megrims, vapors and Tow condition" are the correct thing. High combs and patches are seen on the hori- zon, but thank goodness, cork-screw curls are not even remotely discernible' She "curtesies" and her walk is "mine- ing" She walks a mnuet, and talks a dish" of tea, and 1t is within the possi- bilsties that when wisnng to attend a 'rout' or an "assenbly'' she will call for her "chair'' and link-boys.
 Now, at first blush, it would appear from all this that "The Reactionary Giri'' is a fool, but such is not the case. It is only a striving for individuality. She wishes to segregate herself, to cut off from the crowd. and bachelor girls, athletic girls and others of kindred sept have become so numerous that in sheer desperation she is thrown back on her grandmother for novelty.

The Two-Step.

The fact that a number of the best dancing teachers over the country are raising objections to the two-step on the grounds that it is so often confused with the waltz, thereby detracting largely from the grace and charm of the latter dance. suggests the question, why have so many of Birmingham's young people fallen Into this error7 Does the fault come from heedlessness of instructions or does 1t come from lack of proper instruc- tions? To whatever the error 1t due should be detected and guarded against because dancing is too high an art for its finer points to be disregarded. The two-step is very pretty by two-step time and bids fair to retain it's popularity for a good while yet but lot us have the per feet waltz step for waltz music.
