Js too polite to notice any defects
He takes a little gold tube out of
the pocket of his richly decorated
waistcoat and selects a dainty gold
xie goes to tne frame at
which Cidalise is working and fin
ishes the flower which she had be
gun. From 'her he moves to the
sofa and, seizing one end of the
flounce, assists Jsmene,to :whom he
p&ys special attention, to complete
her task.
At this time it; was the custom of
the ladies Invariably to carry their
workbags with them to the evening
receptions, in which thev had not
only their embroidery materials, but
the last novel, the popular songs,
their patch boxes and rouge pots.
Gentlemen also carried deftly em
broidered little bags into company,
which held "a whole arsenal of cut
lery and fancy articles, such as
boxes of different shapes filled with
lozenges, bonbons, snuff and scent."
At another period the fashion of
the day was to cut out drawings
from books and pamphlets and to
paste them 6n screens, lamp shades,
boxes and vases-. The skill in this
was to so arrange the drawings or
parts of different drawings as to
produce a curious or amusing ef
fect. Then there came a season
when all the rage was for charade?
and riddles, which gave a peculiarly
good opportunity to exercise the
light and rapid wit so conspicuous
in the French. Every evening the
drawing rooms were converted into
impromptu charades. Some lady
would suggest a word or phrase, and
forthwith it would be converted into
the subject of a sprightly little play.
Many of the word games new cur
rent with us in America had their
origin in the necessity the, French
salons were under in the last cen
tury to'divert themselves. In some
of ; the salons the fashion of keep
ing a daily chronicle of news, which
was too. often a mere chronicle of
scandal, was- adopted. Mme. Dou
blet de Persan issued bulletins
which she called "nouvelles a la
main' In her apartments two reg
isters were kept, one of the authen
tic news received here and there by
her guests, the other of floating ru
mors and on dits, and from these
the budget of her chronicle was
made up and circulated throughout
France. Appleton's Magazine.
Telegrapher's Cramp.
An interesting feature of telegrapher's-
cramp is that certain let
ters are nearly always the stumbling
block. The most frequent are C
and Y that is, the code signals
used for these letters. n When a
sender begins to be'conscious"
about so common a letter as C his
case soon becomes hopeless. Anoth
er iorm of cramp attacks the re
ceiver of the message. It takes the
form of inability o write fast
enough to take" down -a message
quickly transmitted. This is easily
understood, -vvhen it is remembered
that ' a receiver 'of ten has -to write
continuouslyo code dictation, so to
speak, for hours at. a time. The
strain? involved :, is - enormous and
leads fairly commonly to what is
practically a form of nervous .break
down. Dundee Advertiser.
