An Army of Menial.
A great many people have been
surprised, when attending the Van-
dorbilt entertainments during the past
year or more, to notice the marvelous
uumber of servants in livery. After
the English fashion, this household
army is usually drawn up in line in
the hull and the guests pass into the
drawing room with a line of servants
on either f.ido. Tne question that
turall v arises is. what in the world
does tlie family do with this army of
meuiuU when they havo no social af
fair 011 bund and are not entertaining!
As a fciuuile matter of fact it may be
explained that these servauUuro not

requires their services. In the lun
guugo of the theatre, they are the
extra ballet. Hie liveries 111 winch
they appear ore supplied them by the
butler of tho house from an immense
trunkful of such gai-monts which huvo
been imptn-ted aud - are constantly
kept 011 liund. Tho butler's waitlrolie
contains Hfty or seventy-llvo such
suits of livery, so that no mutter what

Of late there have been numbers of
suicides of medical men who were
without tho bare necessities of life.
This state of things is attributed to
the ignorance of the people, who con
sult soothsayers and magicians in
preference to educated medical men.
