THE ENGLISHMAN IN PARIS.
A CRUSADE AGAINST GLOVES.
It seems rather curious, says à Paris corres- Frenchman to propose the pondent, for a abolition of gloves. And yet. Ly Spart, which is supposed to be the baromater of these ever- varying caprices of fashions in Franca, gravaly declares that kids must in dopo away with even on State occasions. The eighteenth century despised thean, therefore there is a preciout for the present. Since 1789 gloves became more maxi. more the fashion, and the reason is sufficiently obvious.

EGGS TO HE JUDGED BY YOLKS.
The egg should bo judged by its yolk, not by its shell, states, the Finect. The belief that a brown-coloured egg is necessarily superior to a white egg, recently mentioned by Lord Onslow, is denounced as a fallacy. On the other hand the egg with a dark yolk is said to be more nutri- tious than the egg which has a yolk of pale The degree of colour corresponds with yellow the amount of iron contained, and there can be little doubt that the maximam of colour is renched in the egg of the fowl living in healthy country surroundings, Eggs of the town-bred, "cooped-up" fowl are found to be usually of an anemic colour.
A GREAT FORTUNE UNCLAIMED. A fortune of £3,000,000 awaits those who can prove that they are the lawful descendants of Major Sinclair, of the 12th Foot (1st Battalion of the Seaforth Highlandars), who died ninoty- three years ago. Major Sinclair, it is believed, was a incraber of a well-known family at Wick. At an early age he entered the Army, and accompanied his regiment to India. He married there, and had oue daughter, who was sent home to Wick, and who married a farmer of that

Gloves have always played an important part in human affairs. They and stockings were the favourite mediums by which poison was con- veged by the Borgius, the Medicis, and the Brinvillers. It was said that it was only through the hands and feet that poison could be in- stilled. They have also played their part in politics. At the time of the death of Charles X., certain deputies who were ready to trim at a moment's notics used to appear at the Opera in Paris with a yellow glove on one hand, and a black one on the other. The black one repro- sented the Legitimist, party, the yellow that of Louis Philippe.
