lowing story illustrative of the sharp-
ness of American women as match
makers: American mothers have
acquired no little reputaiion abroad for
skill in connubial management on be
half of ttieir daughters. They are not
generally, we imagine, more inclined
to management of this sort than
mothers of other nationalities; but
' some of them display so remarlub'e a
talent for settling their girls advanta
geously that they have made a name
lor their entire trilie. A Paris news-
|*iper gives a recent instance of the
great success of an American mamma
of tbe peculiar older. Her eldest
daughter had sailed from New York
with some friends for a tour of Eu
rope, and, after doing ihe Continent,
had returned to the French capital for
several months ot rest and pleasuring.
Attractive and clever, she had many
suitors, some more, some less desira
ble. She could not marry them all,
so she adroitly reduced th'e number to
two—the best of the lot, of course.
Then she wrote tiie fact lo her mam
ma, adding that they were both so
handsome, agreeable, well-connected
and rich that she could nut decide
between them, and closed with the
question, ‘What shall IdoP Ten days
later she received a cablegram from
mamma, 'I sail to-morrow. Hold
both till I come.’ The next transat
lantic steamer carried Mrs. with
her younger daughter, turned 18, and
just out of school. On : rrival she
immediately took the helm of affairs,
and steered so deftly through the
dangerous waters, that in a few weeks
she reached port with all the colon
flying. To drop metaphor, she at
tended the wedding of liertwodaugh-
ten at the American chapel the same
morning. After due examination, she
had decided that neither if the nice
fellows should go out ot the family.
