If American women want to know what English women think of them, here Is an extract front an article on the subject In the Realm, a wldely-pu- u joj i.i(Riind XitpKAY uopuo'i peoj bv women, and edited by iJtdy Colin Campbell. Here are some of the traits which the writer professes to have discovered In our women? "The American woman must surely be the vainest creature that struts on earth. ComIn the 'Mikapared to her Yum-Yutdo.' admiring herself In the mirror, nnd congratulating herself Inon being the all the world, most beautiful woman Is modest. She at least utters her convictions only to herself, whereas the ludy from Chicago or Clcerovillo goes up on the housetop and screams so loud that we are compelled to listen whether we will or no. She Is not a woman, and she goes to one of the best Parisian modistes for her clothes But she Is not a lady the word Is out of fashion, but the thing never Is and nothing could make her one. She Is quite without charm of manner, and her education Is of the sort that our board schools give our coachman's children at our expense. Her own comfort Is the one thing she thinks of." And here the writer proceeds to give the American woman some tips as to her danger of being taken for an English woman. e. e n, bml-lookl- n billiard KIbm PPM- AND CIGARS 1 11 D EoNTI NEW.
