MONOCLES The monocle is a fraction of a pair of glasses worn by a fraction of a human being. It is fettered to its position by heav en knows what. Usually the ' wearer sends nis eyebrow down to hold it tn check. If the eye brow has to go upst?ifs to em- ? pbasize a thought ofsoinetmng, the monocle's fall is certain. This situation is overcome by having the monocle on a leash. A long, wide, funeral ribbon leash. This gives it enough of a fall to scare the wits out o it and keep it subdued, but not enough to dash its glass out on the rocks below. To obtain a monocle all you have to do is go into an optician's shop and order a half portion of spectacles. Though why in heaven's name anyone should want to obtain one is more than we can understand. ST. JOHN i Dance at Spring Hill Grove, Wedn-s--iay evening. May If. Good music.
