which attend chipping otl" tliu Um, after
having net tlm hIiihi bm-k from tlm point
of tlm hoof, the average Hinilh will prac
tice thin mode.
Now, a little reflection will enable nny
out to m'o that thi kind of trimming
will caiiMi tho pniitern joint to bo too
much llexod, tlm too being unuatuntlly
elevated through llm failure to cut nwny
tlm undue thickening upon the bottom
of the hoof in it front half. Thi net
ting of tho hhiNi back from tlm too, an
ktntcd, involve the culling away, usually
iu it very rough manner, of tlm HtirpItiH

miiuh prefer that tho edge of tho hoof
Khali Im left projecting Inn-ond the nhoo

will add that un objection to thi mode

The True Btory or "Koliln Ailslr."
Tho hero of "Ilobin Adair" wan well
known in tho London fashionable circles
of tho last oentnry by the sobriquet of
the "Fortunate Irishman;" but his
nrentngo and tho exact place of his birth
aro unknown. Ho was brought up an a
surgeon, but "his detection in an early
amour drove him precipitately from
Dublin," to push his fortunes in Eng
land. Bcaroely had ho crossed tho chan
nel when tho chain of lucky ovontn that
ultimately led him to fame nnd fortune
commenced. Near Holyhead, itorceiv
ing a carringo overturned, ho ran to ron
der assistance. Tho solo occupant of the
vehicle was a "lady of fashion, well
known in polite circles," who received
Adair's attentions with thanks; nnd be
ing slightly hurt, and hearing that ho
was a surgeon, requested him to travol
with her in her carriage to London. On
their arrival in tho metropolis, sho pre
sented him with a fee of ono hundred
guinea, ami gave him a general invita
tion lo her house. In after life Adair
used to say that it was not so much tho
amount of this fee, but tho time it wum
given, that was of service to him, an ho
was then almost destitute. But tho invi
tation to her house was a still greater
service, for thero ho met tho iKJrson who
decided his fate in life. This was Lady
Caroline Kcppcl, daughter of tho second
Earl of Albemarlo and of Lady Anno
Lennor, daughter of tho llrst duko of
Richmond. I orgetting her high lineage,
Lady Caroline, at tho tirst sight of the
Irish surgeon, fell dcsjwrntely in love
with him, and her emotions wero so vio
lent and so sudden as to attract the gen
eral attention of tho company. Adair
seeing his advantage lost no timein pur
suing it; while tho Alliemarlo and Rich
mond families were dismayed at the pros
jiect of such a terrible mesalliance. Ev
ery means were used to induce tho young
lady to alter her mind, but without
avail. Adair's biographer tells us that
"amusements," a long journey, an ad
vantageous offer, ami other common
modes of shaking off what was consid
ered by the family as an improper match,
were already tried, but in vain. The
health of Lady Caroline was evidently
impaired, and the family at last con
fessed, with a good senso that reflects
iionor on their understanding as well as
their hearts, that it w-as possible to pre
vent but never to dissolve an attach
ment; and tliat marriage was the honor
able and indeed the only alternative that
could secure her happiness and life."
When Lady Caroline was taken by her
friends from London to Hath, that she
might bo separated from her lover, she
wrote, it is said the song of "Robin
Adair," and set it to a plaintive Irish
tune that she hail heanl him sing.
Whether written by Lady Carolino or
not, tho song is simply expressive of her
feelings at the time, and as it completely
corroborates the circumstances just re
lated, which were tho town talk of the
period, though now little more than fam
ily tradition, there can le no doubt tltat
they were the origin of tho song. Xeic

' Women and Smoking.
Now that tho Nowman Hall caso n
over, says tho London World, ono is nt
liberty to comment on tho evidence. I
must say I am at it loss to understand
why tho practice of cigarette smoking
among Indies seems to bo generally re
garded by counsel as tho usual accompa
niment of, or prelude to, immorality.
Ono would not bo astonished wero this
conclusion to Ihi jumped at by tho Ignor
ant and narrow minded among us, to
whom each new departure from the man
ners nnd customs of our forefathers,
seems to lie fraught with moral and spir
itual danger; but ono is surprised to find
enlightened men who over and over
again must have found themselves in tho
company of women of irreproachable
character, and who yet may have occa
sionally taken a whiff at a cigarette
pandering to tho prejudices of tho mil
lion. "Rut thoro woro yet graver mat
ters," Sir Henry James is reported to
have remarked in his opening address;
and ho then went on to enlarge upon
tho respondent's habit of smoking
cigarettes. I can well remember soma
years ago, a case of similar nature tho
lady was also an enthusiastic votary bf
the chase nnd it transpired in the course
of the evidence that she was in tho habit
of smoking in tho stable in tho company
of a favorite groom. A shnddor ran
through the wholo court; and tho
smoking seemed to bo moro objected to,
on the score of morality, Uinn tho groom;
but I own I could never understand why,
although in this instance tlio lady was
said to have smoked a clay pipe, and to
have placed her feet upon tho corn bin.
Since this, however, continental customs
liave crept in, and smoking is now looked
upon much more leniently than it was
even fifteen years ago. Let ns aasnmo
that it is objectionable, and, in many in
stances, injurious to tho health; Btili, it
is no moro immoral than taking snuff or
eating bon-bons; and I have been told
by several eminent medical men that it
is, as a rule, less injurious to the female
constitution than it is to ours, sleepless
ness being a malady to which women aro
peculiarly subject, and tobacco in mod
eration acting as a decided soother to
irritable nerves.
A lady a friend of mine who has
suffered terribly from insomnia for
many years, and who had tried every
kind of narcotic without effect, from
choral to tho " juice of cursed hobonon
in a vial," told me that she was induced
at lost to try smoking, and that tho bene
ficial result was almost instantaneous.
It occurred to her at the time how in
jurious so strong a narcotic must be to
those who had no need of it; but to her
it was a restorative to health. There are
many people who liave no violent objec
tion to the smell of tobacco, and I am told
that this has a good deal to do with the
fact that smoking is considered to be so
demoralizing to the female sox. Ono
can quite understand this objection. I
object myself strongly to tho smell of
cod-liver "oil, castor oil, rhubarb and
magnesia, and I cannot say that I even
like that of chloric ether; but I should
lx sorry to brand as immoral all persons
who, having found these drags benefi
cial, ersisted in the um of them, not
, withstanding my dislike to the odor. "I
alwayu fancied," tho wife of a great
smok'er remarked to me naively the other
day, "that smoking was good for im
morality;" but the truth is thero is no
jiossible connection between tho two,
whatever objections may be raised to
smoking upon other grounds.
Ortlce Seeklmr la France.
Tlie dream of every young Frenchman
whoso pockets are empty is to marry a
girl who has from 2000 to 1000, and to
earn about 200 a year for himself by
means of a situatiou affording a fixed
salary. It is not an extravagant dream,
and to do the Frenchman justice, ho is
quite happy if ho realizes it. Having
got 300 or 400 a year, he does not seek
to enlarge his income, but lives pru
dently within his means, and invests
some savings every year with commenda
ble judgment. Tlio very fact, however,
t'-at most Frenchmen should pitch their
ambition so low as to require nothing
moro than what an Englishman would
call a little competency, shows how keeu
tho struggle for life bore is; and when
one reflects that tho thousands of men
who covet tlio liosition of petit rentier
are joined annually by 20,000 recruits,
fresh from tho schools, and with all their
tidonts whetted according to tho newest
systems for the social fray, one cannot
wonder at tho large number of educated
young men who find their way into jail.
