She Is Good Housekeeper.
There is NO doubt at all that ttN
Swiss lady is good housekeeper, a
remarkable deft needleworker, and
well-read in three languages. She is
quiet and SO little given to advertising
her own abilities that the recipient OF

characteristic Of the intense differ
ence between Switzerland and Eng
land that the writer had been receiv.
ed at the house Of well-known Eng
lsh authoress and that she regretted
to her verbally that ut was, of course,
impossible to describe her welcome
and her enjoyment" The English su-
thoress would possibly not have been
surprised or displeased by a highly
colored portrait of herself and her
surroundings in elegant French,
though 1t is very certain that she felt
Just a trifle ashamed of her expecta-
tion when she realized how the matter
OF respecting privacy was regarded in
strict Switzerland.
The lack of superficial brilliancy
and the rarity of beauty possibly &C
count for the few Swiss heroines In
fiction, unless it be of the peasant
class in bygone days when the charm.
ing national costumes captivated the
traveller and when a certain Hans
Christian Andersen went to Grindel-
wald. Yet one great English writer
has made very careful and delicate

cisive sketch Of the Swiss heroine,
Mdlle. Henri, makes it well worth
reading. Mrs Oliphant, too, In
Young Mrs. Jardine," made a sue
cessful excursion into Switzerland for
a wife for an Engiishman.
There is something restful in these
hurrying days in Swiss household
and even single glimpse might teach
us not to fancy absurdly that the So
cial life Of Switzerland is represented
by the noisy kaleidoscope crowd In
her great hotels. The Swiss lady
is no nonentity, although she takes
