Trembling John—Oh, no, sir. I can't"
do anything like that. Why, I haven’t
looked inaide a grammar for yeara; we
don’t learn English grammar in the bigti
achool. sir. Grammar is only taught in
thelnwir grades, and then I was too
young to understand it. Mother had to
correct for me. I can’t parse—l never
could. And we only a fide compositions
now and then, and I always teased my
sister into writing mine. Boys don’t like
compositions ss well at girls, sir.
O. P.—l guess we ll have to fall heck

A Dskumbk or Lahok Feist,—A Phila

Graphic: 1 protest against all this talk
about small feet- aa if they were a sign of
beauty. Ia the first place, this D not '.rue.
No lady who is of average height and
weighs ISO ought not to wear a smaller
shoe than N*. B 11. A smaller loot than
that—at any rate a shorter foot—heremes
s personal blemish. Moreover al 1 Ibis
talk is demoralising. When Gabriel blow*

heap of sins to answer for. Your descrip
tions of fashionable parties, and your
praise of Mias bosndao and Xme. Bociia
oneas ‘the beautiful,’ the bewitching’—
all tends Vo make fool# of sensible young
women. Tbe old-fashioned eulogies of
wasp waist* have passed away, and the
‘waist oi the period 1 is more natural than
that of the preceeding generation, Lt
os hope that tii tbl sHly talk about the
necessity of having microscopic feet will
soon pass assay- p
