SOMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG THE WOMEN, BY. ONE OF THEM. Are we - reallly. so disobedient and headstrong ? She said so, and she has nst comeback from a trip across the 'hriny, With roses on her cheeks, laughter in her voice and diamonds in her eyes (and much lovelier are they there than if they were in her ears.) “Oh i” she sighed. “Those English and French physicians who have for patients royal dames and wealthy mendaines in London and Paris do wonderful. things. When an American doctor. says to a woman, ‘N ow, you rest, keep! quiet, don’t see anybody, be calm,’ she laughs‘ and says, ‘Why cer- tainly, doctor, I do that all the time. I am keeping. very quiet.’ - “Then the doctor says, ‘Remain at home to-day, drive in your carriage this afternoon, but by an unfrequented road.’ "' ‘Impossible,’ exclaims my lady, ‘iinpossible. Why, doctor, this after- noomll have-been invited out to dine and come home for a dance at X’s. To- morrow]? will rest.’ “That means that she has not looked at her social programme for the next day. When she does glance at it she wiitl‘vsee that there is something that she absolutely; .must do. “Let.'th’e:]London doctor advise the Duclfessof Marlborough to go to Carls- bifliflperfect quiet, and she will go. She will leave her presentation gown lying on the floor and throw her cor- hassaid Carlsbad. The same with a Parisian or German woman, but the Americans are the irrepressible.” M fiaty‘éi 1%6016’. _____..__.-_.__‘.-.>.__-.
