In the stimulating little hook which A.B.Walkley calls \u201cFrames of Mind\u201d is a curious observation on our modern habits.Mr.Walkley is contrasting the shifting fashions of woman's garb with the monotony of masculine attire, and he savs it distresses his cye to see a brilliantly dressed woman arm-in-erm with her somberly accoutered escort.Mr.Walkley has inadvertently straved into the period of by- zone days when arm-in-arm was the risid coujugal etiquette.Husbands in pez-top trousers were arm-in-arm with wives in crinolines and _spoon-bonnets.tt was considered shocking to be scen walking with à woman in that unattached go-as-you-please feshion which prevails now.No husband would dream of taking his wife on his arm down the street today.The feminine reformer, who chafes against the con-! veution which robs a married woman of her identity by forcing her to take her hushand's name, would flame into open revolt if compclled:-to take his arm.Everybody likes \u201cSig Julian,\u201d as Lord Pauncefote, the British Ambassador at Washington, is tionately -groomed, with ruddy complexion land white whiskers\u2014will he missed on is favorite promenade along Conneci wt Avenue, says the Saturday Even-: \u20ac « His Lordship is now 71 ears hr age, and would Lave been rc- Hired from the diplomatic service more than a twelvemonth ago had it not been for the anxiety of Her Majesty's Government to re at Washington a man sa thoroughly sequainted with Anglo-American relations and so | tirely persona grata.Sir Julian je very approachable ard unostentaii: mai, simple in his ways and extrem- icly hospitable.He kas been accus | tomed to entsrtair mest handsomely | fring the winter seasons in Washing.| ton, following in that respect, the: habit of his predecessors.It is the] i policy of the British Government to \\give to its diplomatic representatives | * | plenty of money for such purposes, and | | {Lord Pauncefote as had an allowance lof $30.000 a year for \u2018table money, oi in addition to his anuvel salary of SAN,000, A furnished house is beirg provided for his occupancy, with no taxes to pay, his expenses have not been large, and it is reasorable to prc-; eue that, though he began life poor,: he now possesses a comfortable fortune.\u2018The British Embassy is the con- itre of.greatest social importance in { Washington.In this respect it is not rivaled by the establishment of any cahinet officer, nor even by the white \"house itself, the President's enterwir-| | ments being mainly of an official char.| acter.It takes tke Icad of all tre | legations, and gives the best dinners and finest Lalls.Sir Julian has given: two or three balls every season \u2014 one of them always on the night of the (Queen's birthday, in May\u2014which have | bean attended by a distinpuished gatl-; x ering of «diplomats, hich ofeers of tbe | xoverument and people in fashionable! sovicty at large.In addition, occas-! ional dances have been organized by his four daughter.Ounce a weik, or oft- |e in winter, Lady Pauncefote has! ont ont invitations for a dinner, usu- | 1 young peopl, vf! is fond.yadly asking se whom \u201cmy Jord \u2018 ge NEV YEAR'S GIFTS FREE.!
