Girls of the Three Kingdoms.

From the London Peoples Friend.
The Scotch girl is inclined to view things
darkly. She may love deeply, but she is
certainly not an adept at showing her af-
lection. She is a good friend with strong
ideas of duty, but difficult person to live
with. The English girl is widely different,
ELUSIVE in the extreme: a good taIker, a
charming companion, hospitable friend.
An intelligent, well-read girl as a rule.
who takes life easily, and has a fund OF
philosophy which enables her to bear life's
severest trials without breaking down. The
Irish girl is the creature of extremes. and Is
for the most part the prey of her emo
tons. She is charitable. winning in the
extreme, but also dreadfully improvident.
