When Col. Bryan’s regiment is final- ly mustered out quite a number of trained 16 to 1 orators will be turned loose on the public. Another advantage of the Christmas stocking is that wearing it makes the concussion so much less felt when i‘ comes to footing the bills.

EVE’S RAMBLINGS. COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG THE WOMEN. BY 01112! or THEM. Surprising, is it not, how some peo- ple hate being laughed at ? They either “cut up rough” at once and open- ly, or they assume a constrained smile, intended to veil their feelings, but really agonizing to behold. I am sure that there are persons who could better stand cilumny than a joke. That is a pity, for really there is so little honest laughter in the world that one might be willing to add to the gayety of the community, and even to join in it. If a thing be really funny, one ought to be able to perceive the fact, in spite of its connection with one’s impeccable self. Besides, people who can laugh piOperly are, as a rule, nice. Please note thereser vation. If it be true—and I think it is~that the 11oman who giggles is petty and shallow, the person who "sniggers” malicious, and the dreadful creature who utters a resounding bellow unre- fined to a degree, it is also true that she 11h01ings a p111etoned ca1illon of mirth is loyal and geneious and wide of mind. A sense of fun is a precious, if dan- gerous, possession. It may be embar- rassing to its owner, but it makes for safety and charm. You can argue with one who possesses it; you may even convince. That person will be chari- table, forgiving, sympathetic; for a sense of humor implies the power of looking at a matter all round, from different points of view. I suppose that if it were general there would be no suicides, few proL. lem novels, a general improvement in, feminine attire, hardly any quarrels, no false pretensions—ah, well, the mil- lennium would be with us, athing for 'which we dare not hope. To be domestic is not considered com- mon place among great ladies abroad, where the ability to rule one’s home and keep it in good working order is thought an accomplishment Of the first water. Queen Victoria’s daughters were taught to cook and sew and make them- selves generally useful. The Princess of Wales learned scientific dress-cut ting, and a royal princess not so very 1 long ago was initiated into the myster- ies of hair dressing. . ~ , Princess Henry of Battenburg is a skillful embroideress, besides being an artist and musician. Domesticity has not proved\a bar to culture in the case of any of these highly placed 'women. The Empress Frederick Of Germany is one of the most intellectual and cul- tured women in the world, but she is also an adept in the domestic arts. She isa sculptress and can cleverly wield the brush, as well as her sister, the Marchioness of Lorne. There is no better judge of needle- work in the kingdom than Princess Christian. Many of the designs used in the Royol School of Art Needlework are from the clever pencil of Princess Louise, Marchioness of Lorne. Princess Alice, mother of the present Empress of Russia, used to ‘cut out her children’s clothes and trim their hats in the far-back days when she was Grand Duchess of Hesse and was sur- rounded by the little ones. If we take a step down to duchesses, marchionesses, etc., we shall find that blue blood is usually associated with a taste for true British,domestieity. The Duchess of Abercorn can sew beauti- fully. The Duchess of Sutherland can cook and make a gown. She often de- signs her own dresses. The Marchion- ess of Londonderry, one of England’s most famous beauties, is a utilitar 1an of the first water.
