WOMEN'S COURTESY. A la^y writer has much to say on the sub- ject of women's courtesy in omnibuses and trams. She has come to the conclusion that there is often too much of the take and too little give on the part of women. For in- stance, ladies continually take more than their fair share of space, and it requires the peremptory insistance of the conductor, with his I Close up, ladies close np, please,' to get them to make room for the new comer, and then it is as little a move as may be. And the way many of them, who ought to know better, accept a seat from a man when he re- signs it to them They will plump into it without a word of thanks. I have fre- quently felt abashed at the want of good feeling — which is at the root of all politeness — exhibited by my sex, and the selfishness they show in rail- way travel and in public conveyances. Courtesy begets courtesy. We are told some- times that as women obtain equality with men they will be treated with less deference and oourtesy. This is not my experience. In America, for example, where women enjoy the greatest freedom, and, except for their full rights of citizenship, the greatest power, men are more generally polite to women than in our country-a consideration begotten of women being lest dependent and being early trained to look after themselves. Isor does this lead to inconsiderate exaction on the part of ladies, atI some Englishmen would have us believe. In American oars more than once a lady arose from her seat with the request that my father would occupy her place, re- marking, on his hesitating to accept her kindness: 'You will oblige me, sir; I am younger than you, and better able to stand.' There lies the gist of the whole affair By right the seat belongs to the one in possession, and it is only kindly feeling that waives the right. There are delioate men as well as delicate women, just as there are tired men as well as tired women and to send the former ill-pro- tected, as a man may be who in our variable climate has started in dry weather, out into the wet, or make him stand, after previous hours of being on his legs, for one who, may- hap, is less tired than himself, is a view of the question that if women took into considera- tion might abate their indignation. How- ever, I am not writing in defenoe of selfish or ill-bred]men,only reminding my sex of the fact, known to some of us by sad experience, that there are men who catch oolds in exposure, and who weary in a day's work as well as women. Also, that too many women are quick to resent a lapse of any polite attention that custom may have assigned them, but are utterly indifferent to the more important rights they are deprived of, the possession of which would raise their status in the eyes of men. The power to enforoe our demands goes always a great way towards the obtaining of them."

When may a cup of tea be said to betray enthusiasm ?—When it cheers. Railway Offioial (travelling incog, on his own line): They say there has been some fault found with the lamps on these trains. Do you see anything wrong with them P Passenger No sir. On the contrary, they are exactly the kind of lamps I like to see used. Railway Official (highly pleased) I presume you are a professional man ? Pas- senger Yes sir. I am an oculist. Cupid was flying irregularly between them, so to speak, as they were strolling along. He was feeling a good deal like a man who was going past a cemetery, and was whistling. 41 I wish you wouldn't whistle," she said, pet- tishly. "It is positively rude He looked at her a moment and stopped. Then he be- gan to sing softly. He sang for a few minutes. Harry she said, almost tenderly. His face lighted up with hope. Please whistle 1" she reqnested, pleadingly. Judge Egan, of Dublin, a contemporary of Curran and Grattan, fought the Right Hon. Roger Barrett. Master of the Rolls, with a pistol, and three others with the sword. Egan was a humourist, and his duel with Barrett was characteristic. On the combatants taking their ground, Barrett, though the challenger! immediately fired. and, missing his antagonist, walked away, coolly saying, Egan, now my honour is satisfied." The judge, however, who was not satisfied, called out, Halloa, Stop, Roger, until I take a shot at your honour." Roger returned, and, with the same composure, said, "Very well, fire away!" Jack Egan presented, and seemed by his Motions determined to finish Roger. At length he oried out, "Pho, pho! I won't humour you. I won't be bothered shooting you, so you may go your own way or shake hands, whichever you like best," The finale may be anticipated.

SOCIETY GOSSIP. MRS. BFSANT. Mre. Besant is expected to return from America about the 19th inst. THB NEXT SAVOY OPERA. Mr. Sydney Grundy is bard at work upon the libretto for the next Savoy comic opera. THE LATE EARL OF WESTMORELAND. The gross value of the personal estate of the late Earl of Westmoreland has been sworn at £ 3,439. M. MARIUS. M. Mtrius has arranged to leave England for awhile, and will support Mrs. Bernard Beere in Australia, besides undertaking all her business arrangements. MR. GLADSTONE AT ALTHOBPE, The visit Mr. Gladstone is paying to Earl Spencer at Allhorpe is his second sojourn at the Earl's beautiful Northamptonshire seat. SIR FREDERICK LEIGHTCN. Sir Frederick Leighton, P.R.A., is painting a large religious subject, The Sea Giving Up its Dead," and a Bacchante. THE PRIMROSE LEAGUE. The membership of the Primrose League has (po the London correspondent of the Glasgow Herald states) risen to 1,042,066, and its habitations to 2,167. COMYSS CA.RR'S NEW PLAT. Mr. Comyns Carr's new play is in active re- hearsal at the St. James's Theatre. No title has yet been chosen for it, and its character is, for the present, kept a close secret. THE COUNTESS RUSSELL. The Countess Russell has returned to her mother's house at Walton, where it is understood that she will permanently take up her abode. A'l thought of a re-union with her husband has, of course, been abandoned. MISS JESSIE BOND. Miss Jessie Bond, whose return to the Savoy has renewed the attractiveness of the "Nautch Girl," is a Londoner by birth She made her first appearance in public as a pianiste at eight years of age. This was in Liverpool, where her debut as a vocalist also took place. She was then sixteen. WHERE FALSB HAIR COMES FROM. Ladies may not like to believe it, but the fuct is declared to be unimpeachable, that the bulk of the hair worn as wigs is not supplied by the 2,500 coupeurs who visit every corner of Europe lo purchase the flowing locks of the peasants, but by the Continental rag-pickers, who carry on a great trade in the combings which are picked up every morning in the dustbins of the great towns. AGES AT MARRIAGE. The Prince of Walts was only in his 22ud year when lie married the Princess Alexandra of Den- mark while the Duke of Edinburgh waited till he was 30, and the Duke of Connaught and the Duke of Albany till they were 29 before entering the married state. The average age of the four sons of the Queen on their marriage was, there- fore, something between 27 and 28 years. Curiously enough, the Duke of Clarence has just reached that age, as he will be 28 on the 8ll! of next month. CLERGYMEN AS PEERS. It has been stated, and not denied, that the Queen is anxious to confer a peerage on Dean Luldell. It has been said that there is no prece- dent for conferring a peerage on a clergyman, but that is a delusion. The first Lord Normanton was so created when he was Archbishop of Dublin. The late Lord O'Neill was a curate in Dublin, and on succeeding to the estates of the O'Neills was made a peer by Mr. Disraeli, Practically the same thing was done to the present Lord De la Warr, who was a clergyman when the barony of Buckhurst was created with special remainder to him. CIGARETTE SMOKING AMONG YOUf-G WOMltN. The fact brought out in the Rus-ell case (writes a London coirespondent) that the Countess smoked half a dozen cigarettes may have created a shudder in old-fashioned circles in the country, Lut it was no surprise to those who know any- thing of society in London. The spread of cigarette smoking among young women in the higher classes has been rapid and, if the practice goes on, it will soon be as common as among the ladie3 of Madrid or St. Petersburg. Some of the West-end tobacconists Itavo specially made cigarettes for ladies, and I believe that they can be bought by those who desire them at certain fashionable drapery establishments. At one of the stores, also, special provision has been made for supplying ladies with the weed." THE QUEEN AND TAGLIONI. We have a now anecdote of the Queen. One morning, some ten or a dozen years ago, when Marie Taglioni, reduced to poverty, was earning a precarious livelihood by instructing young ladies in the art of which, nearly half a century previously, she had been the high priestcs", the Queen happened to call at Kensington Palace just as Piincess Victoria Mary of Tcck was starting to receive her dancing lesson. Her Majesty charged the Princess with this message: "TeU Madame Taglioni, what great pleasure it give? me to know that you are receiving lessons from such an instructions. Tell her it was her inimi- table grace that inspired me with the pas- sionate lovo of danciug which I posseted in my youth." THE HOSTESS OF LUTON HOO. Luton Hoo, in Bedfordshire, where the Duke of Clarence and Avondale is reported to have sung his song of love to his cousin, the Princess May, is the country seat of Madame de Falbe, the wife of the former Danish Minister to our Court, and a special favourite ot the Princess of Wate?. Madame de Falbe (pays the Evening Nevis and Post) is one of the best known and popular personalities in London society, and has for years been one of the shining lights of the Marlborough House coterie. She has been married three times (M. de Faltfe is her third husbind;, and by her first-I he famous Dudley Ward, so well-known in London— she is aunt of the present Lord Dudley. Her second husband was Mr. John Gerald Leigh, whose estate was the Luton Hoo, where this Royal engagement took place. ..THE MOB AT FASHIOXABLE WEDDINGS, The marriage of Miss Cornwallis West with Prince Henry of Ploss should have been the prettiest of ceremonies. Everything had been well arranged nobody had been admitted to St. Margaret's, Westminister, save such as had tickets the simple ritual should have been quietly impressive, for it was so designed but \tays a London correspondent) the aristo- cratic mob wbich filled the church was more un- mannerly than any East end congregation. Archdeacon Farrar rebuked the people who came as to an entertainment. But they were not at all abashed; they still stood on the seats, they still talked as though they were enjoying an entracte at a theatre. All the sacred solemnity was lost. The ceremony became a spectacle. As such it was very pretty. MORE RUMOURS OF ROYAL BETROTHALS. One Royal betrothal always leads to rumours of other?, and a bride having been found for the elder son of the Piioce of Wales, a bridegroom is being allotted by society Rossip to the Heir Apparent's elder unmarried daughter. The story runs that Prince Christian, the eldest son of the Crown Prince of Denmark, who has only just at- tained his majority, has fallen in love with his first cousin, Princess Victoria of Wales,, and that the attachment, which was specially noticed during the receut family gathering at Fredensborg, may at no distant date lead to happy results. And, while the gossips of the fashionable world are tlwis busy with the matrimonial prospects of the expectant bridegroom's family, they are almost equally so with those of the family of the intended bride and a report current two or three years ago to the effect that one of Princess Mary's brothers is devoted to the daughter of an English peer of almost the highest rank is being revived. THE THEATBOPHONE IN LONDON. A preliminary trial of several theatrophones was made at the Savoy Hotel tho other evening. The machines used are similar to the latest which have been introduced into many Paris clubs and restaurantp, and are, it is needless to say, worked on the coin-in-the-slot" principle. For tentative purposes connection had only been established with one theatre—the Savoy—and by holding a receiver to each ear the music of the opera was heard with purity and clearness, with good volume of sound. This is true not merely of the solos, but justice was also done even to the choruse and orchestra. The spoken dialogue, too, is excel- lently reproduced, and delicate shades of intona- tion are not lost. It is believed that the mechanician has finally defeated the swindler. There are two sIots-olle for shillings and the other for sixpences, the tate being sixpence for five minutes' music. Time is marked by a small dial, the total of coin received is automatically recorded, while inadequate coins are contemptuously thrown lout through a bole at the side of tho box. THE EMPEROR WILLIAM. The Emperor William will return the visit of King Charles of Roumania in March. BJORNSTIERNE BJORNSEN. The Norwegians are proposing to celebrate, by a series of grand popular fêtes, the sixtieth birth- day of their great national dramatist and romance writer, Bjornstierne Bjornsen. THEATRICAL JOURNALS. The Players, a new weekly theatrical paper, is to appear next Wednesday, It is to be specially designed to appeal to'members of the profession," but it may find a rival in a journal which, it is said, is about to be established on behalf of the Actors' Association. A DRURY LANE PANTOMIME. A Drury-lane pantomime costs (according to tho Strand Magazine) from JE16,000 to JE2 3,000 for dresses, scenery, &c, A big procession costs from £5,000 to £ 6,000. A good principal boy means JE60 to JE100 a week, a troupe of acrobats jE70 or more, a. first-class clown £ 30 or £40, and a sprightly dancer JE30 to £ 50.. AMBASSADORS' SALARIES. Apropos of Lord Dufferin's appointment to the British Embapsy at Paris, the s:il iry is the highest paid to any British Ambassador abroad. Here is a list of some of the chief posts and the salaries:— Paris, £ 9,000; Vienna, £ 8,000; St. Petersburg, JE7,800 Berlin, £7.500; Rome, £ 7,000; Washing- ton, £ 6,000; Cairo, £ 6,000; Madrid, £5,600; Lis- bon, £ 3,750; Copenhagen, 3,000. TOWERING HATS. Strange to say, the ladies of the theatrical pro- fession are notable offenders in the matter of towering hats. At the Criterion the other night (writes a correspondent) Miss Julia Ncilson, who i was accompanied by her husband, Mr. Fred. Terry, seemed to have the better part of an ostrich on her head. Somebody ought reaHy to invent a matinee hat. FOR SALE-AN ADDRESS. When the Princess Louise was in Ottawa her horses ran away, liar carriage was upset, and she suffered some injuries in consequence. After the accident the Presbyterian General Assembly pre- sented the Marquess of Lorne with an illuminated address congratulating him and Princess Louise on her recovery. That address is now to be seen in the window of a second-hand shop at Ottawa for sale. BARRISTERS AND CIRCUITS. Owing to the localisation of the Bar in various centres many newly-called barristers deein it use- less to join circuits. The question having been raised as to whether a barrister belonging to no circuit could accept a brief on any circuit, the Attorney-General was appealed to, and he has replied as follows In my opinion the rules applicable to circuits are binding upon all mem- bers of the Bar, and no barrister is entitled to accept a brief without a special fee, unless he has joined the circuit." THEY THREW OFF ALL CEREMONY. Prince Henry of Pless and his bride threw off all ceremony when they emerged from the church doorsmade one. In the evening they drove up to Charing Cross alone, and walked up and down the platform, into Spiers and Pond's buffet, into the Charing Cross Hotel and out again, bought papers and Christmas numbers by the score, and alto- gether behaved like a staid married couple of long standing. They left by the 5.35 frain for Folke stone, en route lor the Riviera. THE RELATIONS OF CROWNED HEADS. All the Royal personages of Europe are cousins, and that not very remotely removed. Quite recently a. German genealogist has shown that every crowned head in Europe is descended from one of two sisters who lived scarcely a century and a half ago. The ladies were the daughters of Duke Ludwig Rudolf of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. The elder, Princess Eliaffbeth, married the Emperor Charles VI., and became the ancestress of all the Roman Catholic reigning families; the younger, Princess Antoinette, was the grandmother of King Frederick William II. of Prussia, and consequently the ancestress of all the Protestant Royalties in- eluding the orthodox houses of Russia and Greece GOSCHEN'S ONE POUND NOTES. From an authoritative source the London corre- spondent of the Birmingham Post learns that Mr. Gladstone and his colleagues are determined to strongly resist Mr. Goschen's one-pound note pro- posals, if they are laid before Parliament in any- thing like the form explained by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the London Chamber of Com- merce last week. Opposition will now be laid upon the ground that Mr. Goschen's suggestions would involve a violation of Peel's Bank Charter Act of 1814 (in the preparation of which Mr.^Gladstone, who, at the formation of the Ministry, had been appointed Master of the Mint, may be considered to have been consulted), while a further question will arise ay to whether the Bank of England or the Exchequer should reap the profits of the new transaction. WOMEN'S FEET AND ANKLES. The secret is out at last. The great obstacle to any retil progress in rational dress lies (according to our contemporary Woman) in the English- woman's foot and ankle. When," says this authority, nine out of ten of us have feet and ankles that will b ar inspection, instead of one in ten, then, and not before then, shall we be able to dispense with the mud-gathering skirt that not one dressmaker in half-a-dozen knows how to make properly." For two centuries we have been admiring the heroine of Sir John Suckling's ballad, whose feet beneath her petti- coat like little mice stole in and out," and giving her credit for a graceful ankle and instep. Now we know that it wag just, nine to one that the simple reason of the grudging display was that their owner did not dare to show them. Stiange that nobody suspected as much, in spite of the poet's significant line, "As if they feared the light." ADVERTISING EXTRAORDINARY. In eome remarks upm the Russell case, the V(,tio, National Observer stys:—The chief interest of the whole matter is that it seems to indicate a further and unpleasant development in the recent history of the Probate Division, iu so far as that division is concerned with divorce. That is tho habit, which seems to be growing, of using the court as an "advertising medium," with judges, counsel, and witnesses as "sandwich men." There is an important and conspicuous section of society which has been doing this effectively enougli for some years past. Bookmakers, actors, financial jour- nalists, and people of that sort find io the Divorce Court a source of puffery which may "carry" almost any distance, and which has in it this much of the baloved element of gambling—that you do not know beforehand which side will have tmi)ay the costs. LORD HARTINGTON AS A PEER. I The Spectator believes it is by no means certain that even when Lord Hartington is compelled to go to the House of Lords he will not continue to t'xert a very great part, if not even much the greatest part, of his present influence as a states- man and politician. He would be able, and (con- tinues the paper) we think he would be disposed, to give even a larger share of his time to the moro popular functions of a great statesunan than with ail the labour of the House of Commons upon him he can now devote to them. And though oratory is not to him so favourite a function as it is to Lord Salisbury, we are not sure that his manly, judicial, and straightforward speeches"do not carry an even greater influence with the public than the witty and sometimes rather imprudent addresses of Lord Salisbury. We can grant freely that the House of Lords as a political assembly has lost in importance of late years. So Ins tho House of Commons, at least as compared with the masa meet- ings in drill-halls and in amphitheatres. But it is also true that individual members of the Upper House, who are brought before the public by the commanding position which they take in that assembly, exert a far greater influence on the general public by what are called their extra- Parliamentary utterances than they used to do in tlie days when the opinion of tho House of Lords was almost as large a factor in legislation and administration as the opinion of the House of Commons.

Two of the yearly meetings of the Society of Friends in America have adopted a proposal to alter the name of the body to that of the Friends, Church." The Eurl of Pembroke has given £6,000 to build in addition to Baggot-street Hospital, Dubl n, and JE4,000 to form the nucleus of a fund to build a fishery school at Ringsend, Dublin, similar to that at Baltimore, presided over by Father Davis. It is hoped that support :w1l1 be obtained for it from the Government and parochial bodies. A telegram from Inglewood, Kansas, to D.ilziel reports that a man named Harding, a drover, has just been released from a well into which he fel' nine days ago. During the whole time of his impiisonment his only food was from the body of a wolf which had fallen into the well before him. THE Editor of the Medical Annual after a care- ful examination of CADBURY'S CocuA pronounces it to be both » food and a beverage of the highest quality. Lc5

[ FIGHTING IN INDIA, British Officers Wounded. Telegrams have been received at the India OfficS announcing that hostilities have broken out in the vicinity of Gilgit, which is garrisoned by Kashmir troops, and where a British agent ia maintained. The military force stationed at Gilgit has lately been reinforced by a detachment of Ghoorkhas of the Indian Army and a portion of the Hazard (native) Battery. The Hunza. and Nagar tribesmen having threatened Cha.lt, a fort held by Kashmir troops, Lieutenant-colonel A. G. Durand, the British agent at Gilgit, advanced to that placii from which he telegraphed on the 29th of NorembeS that he would move on the 2nd of December unIe.. attacked before. Ho reported that, thougH he had done everything possible to prevent hostiliiie?, he fe-ired they were iaovitaMeif The fort of Nilt, which is situated on the Hunza River a few miles above Cimlt, was taken by out troops on the 2nd of December after a short engagement. Lieutenant-colonel Durand, CiiP" tain F. J. Aylmer, R.E., and Lieutenant F. F. Bad- cock, 5th Ghoorkhas, were severely wounded. Lieutenant R. St. G. Gorton, R.A., is also reported to be wounded. Cap'ain Aylmer and Lieutenants G. H. Boisragon and Bidcock displayed extra." ordinary gallantry, the first named blow,: ing open the strong fort gate with gun- cotton, and the three officers entering with a few Sapoys after desperate fighting. In accordance with Lieut.-colonel Dunnd'a orders, Captain Bradshaw has assumed military command of the forces. The fort was of great strength and carefully fortified. The enemy suf- fered heavily one gun was taken and nine pri^ soners cup'uved. Lkut.-colonel Duraud'a woundf is v, ry severe, but the ball has been succeeafolly extracted, and he is reported to be doing well, oq also are the other wounded officers. Seven Sepoys were killed and 26 wounded, ?

HEAVY SENTENCES ON •«4» DERBYSHIRE POACHERS. 7 At Derby Assizes on Friday seven Chesterfield colliers, named Riley, Barrett, White, Madia. Woodward, Orwin, and Hardy, were charged with night poaching on the Duke of Devonshirrsestat^ Chats worth Park, last July. The prifonera were surprised by keepers, and a desperate strugg^ ensued. The poachers were armed with stone4 and bludgeons, which they used with terrible effect. A keeper named Stone was badly burfe and one named Huily sustained such dreadful injuries about the head that he became insantty and is now an inmate of a lunatic asylam. Thtt prisoners were convicted, and Riley and Barrew were sentenced to five years' penal servitude, White to three year?, Madin to twelve months, the others to lesser terms.

Her body, arms, hands, and face were literally covered at the approach of eol4 weather with a kind of scab, in appearance resem- bling a severe burn, and would Ttch frightfully, and the hands and wrists would crack with deepi furrows, and none of the doctors consulted coald give it a name or a vemedy. I assure you I did not, believe in patent medicines at all, and refused to try yours or any other until a cousin of my wife, who was similitrly afflicted, tried the CUHCUBA REMEDIES, and the cure of her seemed so veryphtiOt that I concluded to tty them. I accordingly pro-, cured the CUTICURA, CUTICURA SOAP, and OUTXCUBA RIISOLVEST, and am now more than thankful, both for the comfort of my wife and also for hetf appearance, to say tlvitthe scabs died right away, even during the continuaiica of the cold weather.
