classes of 20 or more, but the most of them'
visit the school in small cluvscs of four,
or, to speak technically, a “table” at a
time. With the beginners she merely in-
structs and helps with in turn, exercising
a general supervision over all, but with
the more advanced she "plays in" herself,
and it is a spectacle at once interesting
and amuslugto watch the progress and
demeanor of a class during a lesuen.

A solemn, almost religious silence ls
preserve“, the murkin dealing. showing
cards—everythingmb . ngdoue with word-
lea-4 gravity, and when-game of duplicate
whlst is being "played oi!" the fate of un-
tions might depend upon the result of the
game, so intense la the interest and to sel-
omit the facile around the rtnuid table.

Mrs. Jeuks Maya that her career and cx-Z
parlance its a teacher of whiet have proved
conclusively to her the fallacy of two au-
t-lent accusations against the “new" sex.
They can, according to her, both play
whist and keepaileut, and she says that,
while it would be hard to any which sex
makes the brightest and most interesting
pupils, women are if possible more paine-
taking anti thorough than men. The rule
of silence she has found necessary to en-
force rigidly, for the reason that if it were
relaxed recrimlnatiena, accusations and
harsh criticisms would be iolerahly certain
to result whenever twu equally matched
pupils attempted to "play partners. "

Such things are of frequent occurrence
in outside play, for gallantry cute but a
small figure with earnest whit-it players,
and even tears have been known to follow
the dlscomfliuro of a good pupil when his
or her game has been spoiled bya less well
trained classmate. The women's clubs,
strange as it may seem, are the more
peaceful of the two, and Mrs. Janka is
especially fond of teaching them. They
are invariably pleasant to deal with, she
spys, she“ being an ardent believer in the
capabilities of her own sex, and she is
especially loud inrher praises of the wom-
on of the Peoria club—Chicago Tribune.

The eptamr In Society.

It is difiicnlt to see who would take her

place should the epinater vanish from the
