Kissing Ladies Only.

When a female member of our roy* al family holds a levee it is customary for her to kiss the ladlps of the nobility and no others. It happened that the lady of the Lord Justice Clerk was, on one occasion, among the number of those presented to the Princess Amelia, who was very deaf. “Stand by for my Lady Justice Clerk,” said the man in waiting. Meanwhile some meddling person whispered to him that his announcement was incorrect, the lady being a commoner. By this time the kiss preliminary was about to be performed, when out bawled the man of office through a speaking trumpet:— “Don’t kiss her, madam —she’s not a lady,”—London Titbits. ' •
