We do not necessaɛly sodam the opaluulona wapenend by Correspondent to this column.)
HER ROYAL HIGHNESS WOMAN, TO THE EDITOR OF THE "Hongkono TelusRAPE."
SIR-Observing by your latest issue that although not emulating a "Ladies' Journal," your columns are open to the discussion of a subject which cannot fall to prove interesting to those whom Max O'Rell, lo his recent lecture on "H. R. H. Woman," describes as "the roses of life; observing also that "An American Woman lays the lash somewhat severely on English men and women, peruit me, in the wide field of controversy thus opened out, to put my modest sickle, for it may be, perchance, that the diligent search of some straggling gleaner, who shall follow the reapers, may yet be rewarded with a shesf-of useful deductions.
We have now heard a good deal about "the outward and visible sigos" of both American and English women who, in social Intercourse, soar high above medlocilly, but a glance at other sections of the fair sex may not prove uninteresting at the present juncture, with nothing. In the first place, then, let us take the American stage. There we find that although there is a strict censorship of the stage in Uncle Sam's dominions, it is more common for notorious persons to occupy theatres there than in England. Our cousins objected to "The Second Mrs. Tanqueray, but they permit Sall van, Corbett & Co. to act; burglars have been engaged to make a safe-breaking scene realistic; and the divorced lady, if her cuts has been unusually savoury, is conceded a theatrical show. An American wit recently described an actress anxious to maks sensation, thus: You are a divorce lawyer, rce lawin, I understand," she said, addressing a well known solicitor. to whom she had been recommended. "Yes, madam," he replied, "I secure divorces without publicity." "Um," said the lady. "I'm in the wrong office. Good day, air!" And it was only the other day that a London Journal contained the following from the fen of a well-known dramatic critic. He was asking an actor about the tone of the stage and the dialogue was as follows :-"' Is the stage less moral than formerly, or what is the matter? "Well, the truth is," he replied, "Society and Intrigue are taking the places of Ait and Efficiency on the stage. Actresses in our day relire from the stage to get married, while Society ladies retire from marriage to get on the
stage in
The same wilter continuing his dissertsilaus in re the fair sex wrote:-"There is no mistak: about it, the fashion of smoking among women Is growing. I can't say much for the ladies who have up to the present appeared in print as the champions of the weed for women. They are not altogether the sort of gulden whom one would care to have for guardians of the morals and hebte of our wives and sisters. Moreover, there f a class of women-writers who aim at
eccentricity and delight in shocking their more modest sisters, that he can logically deny to women a solace said to be so good for men. Russian ladies after dinner retire to atte smoke-room and puff away to their hearts' con- tent. In the pit districts of England old women of the lower classes smoke short pipes, just as they do in Ireland. Bat it goes against the sentiment of the domestle hearth to see & young English girl take up a cigarette after dinner and ask her masculine neighbour for light. What looks pretty to Spala and taking in Manila seems vulge England. But I would much rather have. young women join us in our after-dinner ske than have them smoke cigers and cigaretes privately in their bedmoms.. What is that old
story, by the way, of the non-smoking host who entertaived number of mes, all of whom retired early to bed, and on a surreptitious visit by one of the household every man was found sitting by the empty fire-grate (it was summer smoking up the chimmoy! Sho was a lady journalist who pissed me her cigarette-case this

week at an. evening party. I am inclined to think that it was done with a certain artificial bravado that belongs to the lady journalist who feels that she is badly handicapped in her fight with the newspaper man, and is therefore tempted to take upon herself soms of his habits, There is one well-known lady in London who dresses almost in man's attire, and has cultivated the devil-may-cart lounge of the rapid wrkers and lightning draughtsmen of Flest Strest. There is really no necessity for this kind of thing. The womanly woman has the best chance in every business or profession. I knew the famous agricultural reporter and expert in horse-

said that woman was the only problem not given to man to solve. They had all tried, and were still trying. A Frenchman had peculiar views about woman. In his eyes he was an ever-present and fixed idea; bis interest in her was never exhausted, There was nothing more absurd than this to the mind of an A-gl--Sax, If the French mixed more with the other sex s children they might probably acquire the Anglo- Saxon coolness. The object of a'man's worship must always have something of a mystery, So Frenchmen considered a woman far superior to themselves. Not because she was 10, but be cause they made na ideal of her. He had been travelling for eight years, and had only found two countries where the men were in leading stringa and the women were the leaders-France and America; so he would limit his remarks to the women of those countries, In the French household woman was queen; the led her husband, and he did not plain; she knew all bis affairs. He con- aulted her about his investments: that was why warlth in France was so stable, because women

were not speculative. She might be affected sometimes, but she was never vulgar. She thoroughly understood the poetry of matrimony French-women were called frivolous; it was the height of absurdity. Though a Frenchman, be must know as mach about it as the ordinary tourist, and how could the woman be frivolous who was the confidant of her husband, and had
■ deliberative voice in his affales? Among tradesmen the wife kept the books, and could carry on the business after her husband's death. When a French girl of that clser married she was emancipated; In England she often lost her liberty, In England a woman knew nothing of her husband's affairs; not as much as his clark. The wife of the peasant proprietor was the very fortune of France-hard- "mbing, sober, thrifty, always working in the house, the fields, the market. Her daughter did not wear fringes, but when she went to service, every month she paid s'vizit to the savings bank when she got her wages: an English servant girl got a new hat and was photographed in it. The more he saw of American women the more deeply he was impressed with the conviction that they were totally unlike all other women.
There were few women to be
compared with them in a drawing room, hand with whom men falt more at case. They bad beauty, but it was not equal to that of English women; it was their intellectual qualities that were sulking. From the age of 18 a girl was allowed almost every liberty--abe took the rest. In Europe women let the men decide what was proper; In America they did it for themselves. in the largest cities of America, at any hour, the streets were perfectly respectable. The influence of women was enormous, and morality profited by it. The respect that women seemed to inspire in America in men of all classes enabled girls to American woman felt a little mild contempt for go about in security. He sometimes thought the the poor creature called man. They were the most natural and unconventional of women. If he did not know much of women he knew a great deal of men, and his most sincere conviction was that there were very few men indeed who were good enough for women, People said sometimes that rosen" had thorow, but they should also remember that the therus had roses, and the noses of life ware the women."
