'Judging from the latest accounts, conditions of life have changed sadly for the worse in St Kilda sinca Magnus Martin visited the island in 1687. He described the St Kildans as "remarkable for beauty and virtue. What the condi- tion of the people in the Golden Age is feigned by the poets to be, that theirs truly is I mean in innocence and simplicity, mutual love, and cordial friendship (says the Daily Chronicle.) They are free from solicitous cares, from envy, deceit, and dissimulation, from ambition and pride, and the consequences that attend them,;.; There is this only wanting to make them the happiest people in the habitable globe, viz., that they themselves do not know how happy they are."
Dancing de Laxe.
ever
The West End of London has gone mad this week over the day- cing of Mrs. Vernon Castle, who has been engaged by the exclusive Embassy Club at a fee of £350 per week says the Glasgow Herald Known as the "best dressed women- in America," Mrs. Castle danced the first night' before perhaps the most exclusive audièncé gathered in a London club.; There are over 1500 members of this club, and all wanted to be present. The Prince of Wales was there, and ap- peared radiantly happy, while others of the "swell people" were Prince Paul of Serbia (who seems to be having a very enjoyable stay (in London), the Grand Duchess
Marie of Russia, the Aga Khan, i and scores of other famous men and women. The dancing of Mrs. | Castle is really wonderful, and now every society young lady is trying to imitate in dress and pose this fascinating American visitor. A Versatile "Countess,"
Post-war conditions in Europe have been playing havoc with some of the "Pretenders" to various thrones, as well as those of really royal blood who have been shaken out of their palaces, according to a Scottish paper. In Vienna there has just been admitted to the In- digent Hospital a woman around whom a cloud of mystery and ro- mance has been accumulated. This is the Countess" Marie Vetisch- who preferred tostyle herself, "The Archduchess Marie," and stoutly claimed to be a daughter of the late Emperor of Austria. Moreover, she told a story of a secret marriage at Meyerling-where the Rudolph tragedy afterwards accurred. Sup posing this to be true, she was the late Emperor's heiress. Her inter- est to us lies in the fact that some years ago she came to London, as- sumed the arms of the Hapsburgs and got a good deal of credit from West-End tradesmen, who are not well up in the matter of "Pretenders.". Finally, the Aust- rain Embassy had a few words with the shopkeepers, and the
Countess vanished to Paris... First Aid for Clothes.
Nothing is more annoying at holiday-time than to find that one's smartest clothes have been dis- figured by stain of some kind. If the wrong methods are used matters will become worse, for the stain may be increased in size and made permanent. Sea-water has a staining action on account of the chemicals it contains. Any fabric that has been wetted by it should be placed as soon as possible in fresh water and steeped for a short time. If this is done there will usually be no stain. Do not use soap for dealing with fruit Use hot water, and if stains. this does not remove the dis coloration try sponging with weak acetic acid, afterwards rinsing well. Ink" stains: should never be sponged with water, for this causes them to spread. Place the stained material în a saucer of milk. A subsequent sponging with cold water will take out any marks made by the milk. If a.spot of grease is dropped on clothing, as much as possible should be re moved by gentle scraping. The material should then be placed under a sheet of clean blotting- paper and hot iron applied, " The heat melts the grease and the blotting-paper-soaks it up..
