THE VAGARIES OF STICKS AND UMBRELLAS. A chapter on the proper mode of carrying sticks and umbrellas would afford most persons material for profitable reflection. We have not the space for such a chapter, but shall merely notice, with regard to the matter, a few instructive, but easily forgotten, hints of daily experience. The point, whether of stick or umbrella, figures prominently in the small accidents of every thoroughfare. It is carried or suddenly jerked behind one under an arm, and often painfully near to the persons of passers-by. It is needlessly thrust in front by the arm of a rapid walker, or anon describes a circle, with some careless hand for the centre. It travels swiftly upstairs at railway stations, performing an ag- gressive zigzag movement among the crowd of passengers. It forms the centre of the spread umbrella suddenly opened in the teeth of a stormy wind, and in the face of wayfarers Its uncertain level threatens by turns a shin, a back, or a face, a child's mouth or eye, or the solid front of some portly citizen, "Beg pardon" readily follows if it strikes a mark, but a missing tooth is not so soon restored or a bruise reduced. In such matters no body of regulations can give security, but self- interest alone might teach the careless the duty of watching and guiding aright this apparently insig- nificant but seriously offensive point.-Lancet.
