Bound to Say Something. ~ Among other anecdotes of university life Dein Hole tells of an occasion when there vras some doubt.as to the locality of a city mentioned in a Greek text, and the lecturer addressed a youth who had y school,‘‘Now, Mr. Bentley, you are & pupil of our great geographer, Dr. Butler, the Atlas of our age, who carries the yrorld not on his shoulders, but in his nea, ond you can probably enlighten us ten miles to the southeast of the spo 4t now -oceupies on-ourmap.” = ‘ Mr. Bement’s Cabinet of Minerals. of Mr. Clarence L.

Aristocracy and Business, The aristocracy of Enrope has at last set itself to getting a living in the ways of jess exalted people—that is, by trade and barter. Whether we who buy of them have not to pay a pretty penny for the honor is another question, but it is true that the Duke of Edinburgh played in an orchestra last week, and there are six titled dames in London who are in the millinery business, and a very flourishing concern is the Gentlewoman’s Tea company, all 60 of whose members have “Hon.” before theiynames. This company has a house in the heart ef Bond street; where the would-be purchaser may go to taste the wares and be waited on by a scion of nobility in a muslin cap and apron, who handles tea as if she had been born to it, All these wares are imported, blended, packed and sold by the members of the concern. Then in Paris a baroness and a company of ladies make and sell all manner of fing and delicately perfumed goaps, toilet weters, powder, dentifrice, éte, It is. de rigueur te have this whole. soap stanped with the crest and monograms of the owner, and these ladies have in4a: 'od 2 dainty little cake called “Lawn Lenni: Soap,” just large enough for once asing.
