AS THEY DO IN LONDON.

In the dining room Of nearly every ho--
with cold fowl cold ham, roast beef,
tongue and mutton cold lobster and
salmon with mayonnaise, and many
"chaudfroids'' SO masked with jelly and
so attractively garnished that one knows
before tasting that they must be good.
AT breakfast and lunch time, and even
when in need of a bite before going to
bed, the true Englishman makes tour
of inspection around this table in order to
select the particular palate ticker of his
own fancy. But the usual breakfast of the
ordinary mortal is tea, toast, mullins or
very hard cold rolls, with eggs or bacon
and the inevitable jam. This jam is always
obtainable at any English table, and it Is
of many varieties, orange. plum or
strawberry predominating. When the un-
spoiled American comes along however,
he is served with boiled coffee, warmed
over rolls. ice water and all the different
kinds of jam at once. He swallows this,
with eggs or bacon, and then he won
ders why his digestion doesn't digest
The boiled egg Isl the true test of patriot
ISM The Englishman eats his in the
proper manner, of course; he sets it up
in a tiny cup, breaks the end, adds a
dash of salt, and proceeds to absorb it
most daintily with tiny spoon. But the
American asks for two, and he wants
them broken into glass tumbler or COB
let, and he then chops them furiously
adding salt, pepper and butter until they
are thoroughly mixed into delicious
mess which. tastes better than it looks

holes are edged with a narrow lace
ruffie, and so are the half length
sleeves in the night dress. These are
open to shoulder, and have groups
of tucks at top, and above the lace
edge medallions of graduated sizes are
inserted in corners, and out lines by
the hand work which continued there
in dainty vine design almost to the
top. In the drawers there is embroid-
cry out lining the space in which the
graduated medallions are inset, and
they finish with full lace ruff1e on
hem. The handmade lace mentioned
and which is not illustrated is truly
lovely as the Honiton braids are fash
toned into designs similar to duchesse
lace and the connecting lace stitches
are varied with spiders" in the wider
spaces. This lace can be made at
home with little patience, and the re-
suit more than repays the trouble
taken. The braid itself probably re-
sembles more the skeleton of a leaf in
texture than anything else, and comes
in different widths and designs.

And she turned and hurried out

PRECOCIOUS CHILDREN
SMALL GIRLS COULD GIVE THEIR
MOTHERS POINTERS.
The English Way of Keeping Girls and
Boys in the Nursery Is Better Than
Giving Them the Liberty Which Is
Allowed in Most American Families.

Children of the present day are so
precocious and self-possesed they
fairly take ones breath away. Watch
them at concerts, or in shops and
street cars and they certainly can give
their mothers pointers in ease of
manner.
This reminds the writer of some
thing she saw done by a child in a car
the other day. The little girl was evil
IDENTIFY on her way home from school
and could not have been more than ten
years old When the conductor came
round for her fare she looked up at
him in the most possessed man.
ner and said: Conductor, 1 find 1
have no money; will you please give
me an envelope?" Whereupon he took
self-addressed envelope from his
pocket and gave it her.
1t seems that if one has not his fare,
the conductor will pay it, giving the
passenger an envelope to send him
back the nickel This performance
shows a beautiful faith on the part OF
conductors, which, it is to be hoped, is
justified by the subsequent proceed
ings. The street car company, it will
be noticed, is not the loser by the
transaction, even if the forgetful ONE
does not return the money, and still
the wonder grows that conductors
have such confidence in the public.
This way is evidently we'll known
TO the children, and while a grown per-
son might well be embarrassed by such
confession, the little girl in ques-
ton was not in the least abaShed.
When questioned about the envelope
she said, she had not realized whe1l
she got aboard the car that she had no
money"
Live and learn, even in street cars.
1t is by these little things that one
judges of the precocity of children. No
wonder that eighteen-year-o girls
are blase and do not care for society.
AT sixteen their parties and other
gayeties are just as elaborate as those
given by their mothers for their
friends. They have theater parties
and can tell as much about the good
points of actors and actresses as can
veteran theater goers. Perhaps, this
is not characteristic of this age more
than another, for a man said the
other day that he remembered how
very fast the young people were con-
sIdered thirty years ago by his father
and mother 1t is however, the aplomb
of mites of children that astonishes
one.
After all, the English way is better;
keep girls in the nursery until they are
eighteen, and then everything will be.
new and fresh to them. English girls
of eighteen are frequently shy, and
the shy girl may be laughable to some.
persons, but heaven knows she would
be rather refreshing over here. Fancy
a shy girl! A shy boy is quite beyond
probability.
