Each sex really most enjoys conversation with its own kind ; but to talk freely with mon saves women from becoming, narrow minded and, men from being too self-opin iopated. It is never, however, between the opposito sexes that revelation of the inner man or inner worgan is, made in conversa- tion. When there is anything of this aort to be done, men like to talk with men, and a woman is always more fluent with another. woman in similar circumstances,

Pretty Fans,
A tiny ivory fan is the latest form of Parisian fancy, and girls are bunting their family archives through to find those that were fashionable 70 years ago. Rich parents are this summer presenting their daughters with monogram fans. A girl carries a small silk fan of the folded variety, and is in the habit of opening it and laying it on her lap, and in the middle of the fan her name will be seen most exquistely. presented on specially wrought lace. An- other idea is a blue linen fan with a mono- gram in the centre of it embellished with a littlo cirole of green leaves. The appear- ance is very much as though it were a medallion set into the fan. And still on other fan is made of taffetas, with a worked medallion in the middle and a lace or nament at each side.
