Go to Fendig’s. Arm In Arm. The St. Louis Spectator's “Town Talker ” says: “Itis a curious fact, but nevertheless true, that you never ese * lady and gentleman walking arm-in-arm in this city, except in coming from the theatre or late in the evening. In the daytime, if a lady should promenade, having hold of her escort’s arm, most people would turn their heads to look at the couple. In the Eastern cities such a sight is by no means Bo rare; yet even there the custom is very far from general. In European cities, on the contrary, it is the universal habit. Why is it that American damsels are so shy of dinging to a gentleman’s arm ? Probably it arises from her naturally self-reliant and independent nature. American girls do things which would shook the sensibilities of their European sisters. More latitude is allowed them in their actions; their independence is fostered. To be hypermetaphorical, it may be the vine clinging to the oak ; but our American belle needs no support, and as the act of taking the arm implies per se the necessity of protection, it is averse to her ideas. Perhaps, too, it is thought to be a sign of ‘spooniness.’ Whatever it is, the fact remains that our girls object to perambulating the streets in the glare of the sun with their arm through those of their escorts.” Nowa-days one involuntarily takes a couple arm-in-arm in the daytime to be provincial. It was his first letter home from boarding-school, and it read as follows : Dear Father— l write you before I write ma becoz I know you like to see ma mad. I think I will get along with my lessons first-rate. The garden here is full of chickens, which makes the walking bad. In history I’ve got as far as Alexander the Great. He carried a sword to cut knots with. Thove is an apple orchard half a mile off. The boys play ball in it; after that there ain’t much apples. The minister’s son was licked this morning for going a fishing on Sunday. He caught lots of fish, and says he is going agam next Sunday.’ I think I like the minister’s boy a good deal. Send me marbles as soon as you can, also a jack-knife and a top. Two of us boys left a piece of wet soap at the head of the stairs just before daybreak, and by the time the cook got to the bottom she was too sick to get breakfast. We have prayers reg’lar every day, and the teacher reads out of the Bible, bnt I don’t think it’s so bully as playing tag in a hay loft. From your affectionate son, Samuel. —Brooklyn Eagle,
