Between these and ours the coutrast was, to my eye, entirely new. The bust and neck of almost every lady within reach of oureyea might have serv ed ss models for sculpture. From the zone to the chin, English women from seventeen to thirty are almost invaria bly superb. We looked in vain for a hoi low cheat or a bent back, or what is tome, times called "thread paper looking girl." The shoulders full were dawling, and of the healthiest tint of white, and the carriage of the whole bust graceful and stately. Within these limita I think (and my friend thought with me) lie all the perfections of the English Venus. We looked at features. There was scarce a classic forehead r nose th the room. . At the feet ther were rather of useful than of ornamental proportion to the figure. At the grace of the dancers you could not find in all France so indifferent a dan. cer as the best at Almack'a.
