PLEASANT FAXCY WORK FOR LADIES. A stroll down Bond-st. amongst the ptcture* reminded me of an exhibition which detighted me t!)ere a year ago, and I was espcc!a!ly pleased to recall it. for I have just had a beautiful volume presented to me, which contams nearly, if not quite all, the f-hanning paintings I there saw on the watts of the Fine Art Gallery, by Henriette Ronner, the great painter of cat life and cat character. They are reproduced as photograuves in this vo)un)e, and it is almost, as p)easant to study the expression and attitudes of these beautiful creatures thus presented to us in a wen-bound, l.n-ge volume, as to took at them a whole afternoon a-s I did last year when their portraits were suspended on the wails of the nttlegaHery in Bond-st. Looking at Madame Ronner's paint ings, it seems one of the easiest things in the w or)d to paint a cat, but it is noto- rious that acatis really oncof the mostdifncu)tof Itv'ngthingstopaint, a'-onemay wctt bcHevewhen this most attractive animal is regarded in all its varying humours and moods. Very few artists have ever attempted to devote themselves to this phase of art, and I beHeveMadnme Ronncr.the remarkable French woman whose portrait is on the nrst page of the handsome volume before me, is pre-eminent amongst the number. The proverbial chameleon is not more changeab)c in its colour than the cat in respect to her contour, expression, and attitudes, and artists are apt to shrink from the attempt to catch anything so nck)e minded and transfer it to canvas, but Madame. Ronner has not only undertaken the difficult task, but has been eminently successful in it. Those who love cats, and there arc many, I am n:)af) to nay. who do so, not on)y the pro- verbial old maid but strong, chivalrous men, who seem to delight in their feminine ways and humours, for it must be remembered that cats select their friends for themselves, and do not take np with anybody as dogs are too apt to do, lovers of character, wil) be charmed to see Madarne Ronner's rendering of their habits and graceful, fascinating ways. The texture of the fur she paints on her cats a!t)t0sttc)nj't one to stroke, then), and their very mischievous g:nnbo)s, whtch contd ne\'cr suggest themsehes to any one who did not tove them. are quite absorbing to behoid. I am sorry that Madame Rouner. this wonderfu) cat anist, j was never introduced to my own dear KoKo, witit his butlty tail and perfect coat, stow measured step, and dignifit'd bearing to stran- g('rs. or, I am sure. he wouhi have figured in this gaUery and atthough in times past many a poor old woman has paid for the constancy of her cat by being dectared a witch and in teague with the devi), in these iatter days we can ven- ture to face such dangers and to love our fc:.is do)?tcstic-its, even after the exquisite charm of her <ar)y youth, andkittenhood.is past. There is one picture in this deHghttni book which I especiaHy like to coutemptate—it is c.dted The turbulent family." and in it we see the anxious mother vain)y trying to curb the mischievous pranks of her troubiesome children, who have knocked down a bud cage and are disporting themselves round and about it. and a domestic spinning wheel, with att the pranks of kitten nature, as Mr. Ruskin says. "down to the most appaning depths thereof." Cats have. been subjects for the painter's art for ages past. The bronzes and statutes of Egypt and the mural paintings of Thebes give us specimens of ancient attempts to pourtray them and I well recoilect being attracted in the recent Tudor exhibition to a touching picture of a cat. which was said to have fed Sir Henry Wyatt with pigeons when he was imprisoned in the Tower. But these are but caricatures of a rea). true. beautiful cat; and it remained for Madame Ronner to how us the dinerence be- tween a portrait from life. done with all the enthusiasm of true admiration and appreciation of the subject, and a mere perfunctory attempt at achieving a fikcncss. This beautiful volume, though its first claim on our admiration certainty consists in the wonderful iHustrations it con- tains, has also many pages of interesting letter- press, written by Mr. Spielmann, who says that Madamc Ronner's genius, in her own chosen tine of art. is second neither toLandsecrnorMadam< Rosa Bonheur. The book is pubfished by Messrs. Cassell, and I shall certamly try to present a copy of it to a cat loving barrister friend of mine. who dctights to telt me how his own familiar pussie never settles to her nightfy rest till he is safely shut into his chambers, and how she always waits tor hhn at the gate ot the Temple, however fate it may be betore she hears his latch key in the took. when with a !oud purr of welcome she springs on to his shoutder and accompanies him upstairs. The weather of late has been so sharp, indeed bitterly co)d, that the at ten! ions of a soft purring pussie cat are not to be despised, and I \ve)come Ko Ko's smooth, warm fur on my tap when he honours me by jumping up. during this biting east wind, even more than I do under ordinary therma) conditions. I sympathise much with the Home which exists for cats in connection with the Home for Lost and Starving Dogs, although the merit ot either of these wet! devised institutions tiepen(i:s on their management, and I have had occasion totind grave fau)t ith many of the arrangements in the dogs' department and the admintstration oi the fumts. Things may be better now, but! tear the comfort and welfare ofthec)os:sisnot. the tir-Nt consideration in the management, and I am quite sure that Ko Ko would be very unhappy there. Six hundred and fifty cat" have tound retuge there during the year, and many cats are received as boarders when their owners are fro'n home, and dread to leave them uneared for in the streets of London. My heart is often made very sorry to see how little these pretty creatures are regarded by those who own them, but leave them to their fate. and how great their sunc'ings often are with no one to feed or shelter them. A little kennel at Hattersea and daity rations j can be secured for a smat) weekly sum by any one who desires to deat fairly with a domestic pussie whom they cannot otherwise provide for, when leaving home All one's wraps and comforts are as valuabte now as they have ever been through the winter, and I revert to my Shetland woo! garments with the greatest pleasure. I am bound to say that my affections arc divided between the very elastic, warm but Hght material, which comes from the far nort it, and seems constructed to keep one warm with- out knowing it, or experiencing any weight in wearing it, and the material known as "Ja*gar," in which I am now rejoicing. in the form of sheets on my bed. The machinations of the ordinary laundress makes the wearing of Jaenar garments very disheartening and expensive, for there seems to he no way of avoiding the nievitabtc and vexatioua shrinking which has to be endured. excepting: the use of the domestic wash-tub, and this is not always avaitabte. Where it is, how- ever, if the operation be performed with proper care, Jsegar under-ctothing is a delight and a pleasure, and in any case I sleep in my detight- fulJaegarsheetsof ampte size without dream- ing of the wicked laundress, for even her attempts to shrink them, unless malieious)y outrageous, could only affect my comfort by an inch or two, whilst in a garment a very little diminution in size is ruinous to one's peace and comfort- Japgar sheets are like the softest and finest cashmere made of the purest woo), and feel like the softest si)k. they are warm and very light now, and when the summer comes 1 am assured that they have every advantage suited to the season. A) chough this new and pleasant acquisition pleases me much, I am faitliful to my o!d love, and I regard my soft, white, Suny, !acey Shetland shaw)s, which originally came from Mr. White, of Edinburgh, with great aHection. Whilst recovering from my recent illness I have tested their c)aims both on my vanity and my comfort, and though it is difHcuIt to wear a lacey white covering in the dirty atmosphere of a London house and yet retain the sctt-respect which such a dainty and pure looking wrap ought to inspire, I persist in doing so on hygienic as well as on other grounds, and I have now two of these very becoming shawts, one of which is often being restored to its original purity in its native Scotch air, whilst the other is graduany losing its freshness by contact with chair covers and cushions that have been through several abominabie London fogs. And so they take their turns to be refreshed and cleaned, and as I welcome each one on its return I fancy I feet the whin* of a breeze from the Pentland liil m; even from Lervick itsetf, as unwrap the parcet. 'rhen the many and various devices of the Shet- land hosiery, not so dainty and delicate, 'tis true, as the fabric of my pet shaw )s, but reiiabtc and warm, and ready for any emergency by sea or land, in winter or summer, are too endiess and varied for me to describe, though I am never without an abundant supply of them all, for I appreciate their qualities most thoroughiy, especially as I grow older, and know how essential it is to have warm clothing winch adds as little as possible to the weight we all have to carry in the shape of clothes. Then, although things made of woo), without any admixture of silk or cotton, are sure to shrink a littic in w ashing, these Shetland garments are so loosely woven that they do not seem to suffer as much as more closely made fabric? do, such as Ja'gar's, and in this respect, as mere comfortable w raps j for night or day, I prefer them to any woollen garments I have ever woru. I continually endeavour to explain to such of my friends as are unwise enough to resist I w caring wooHen garments next their skins, an(t t declare that they are warm enough, and in the f summer far too warm, as they are, that my desire is not to make them speciaUy warm, but to secure them from takingchilis, and I try to make them understand thatwoolabsorbstheinsensibie perspiration which is constantly given off by a healthy skin, and protects it from the action of ourchi])y and changeful climate. It equalises the temperature as linen or cotton cannot do, and is as necessary and as comfortable to wear in hot weather, when the skin is acting freely, as on the coldest day in winter. I am quite sure that hundreds of colds and coughs and attacks of bronchitis might be avoided if the multitude of foolish young women who declare that they "really cannot wear wool next their skins," would listen to reason and common sense, and clothe themselves properly. I could give a sad list of sickness and sorrow amongst the young and charming girls I happen to know, entirely due to want of this precaution. An exciting game of lawn tennis on a hot after. neon, a drive home m the cool evening on the outride of a coach, necessarily caustng an Inevitable chill. because there was no woollen fabric worn to absorb the moisture, and the pe' spiratory glands, wliieh had been freely acting, of course checked and shut up so that the evil products of the btood, which are carried off naturally in this way, are sent back into the system and left there to induce uitlam mation and disaster too tenib)e to recall, I could give chapter and verse for many such cisea which I have personally known and grieved over. No wonder then that I am an ardent advocate forwooHcn underclothing for every one of any age. size, or sex. But meu are wiser than we are about such matters. Whoever heard of a cricket or football player robing himself in fine linen or calico for the occasion ? He knows that his flannel suit will be most comfortable and pro- tect him from the consequences of throwing himself down to rest awhitc on the green Sra-'s after violent exertion, as no other material could do, and so woe to the man who is seen paying cricket in a cotton shirt, however hot the day may be. But it is, I am sorry to say, of very little use to write or to say all this when common sense is the last tiling brought to bear on matters ef dress and costume. At regular Interval we have in ono of the Bond-st. Galleries exhibitions of the work Of members of the Royal Water-Colour Soctety Art Club. The club is made up of clever amateurs. who exhibit their works at the pleasant re- unions or soirees which are occasionally given by the members, of whom ladies form a large pro- portion and contribute largely to the objects of interest which are shown. Among the exhibits at the last soiree were specimens of a kind of etching which is very popular with ladies just now. "It is called poker work, and is now done with a fine point on wood, not as it was at first by the skilful use of the ordinary domestic red- hot poker. It appears that this method of tracing fi--ui-es on wood is quite an ancient one, and was !ong ago practised by the Dutch and Italians. Some very old specimens of Enghsh work of the kind have also been found it is, indeed, a revived art which is within the scope of any !ady who can draw fairly well. In o)acn times it used to con- sist in heating an iron point in the nre and sketching with it, or an ordinary poker on smooth plain white wood. Modern soence has greatly simplined and improved the methods of proceeding. What is commonty used now is a Iitt)e apparatus sold at Whitetey's and Shool- bred's, and at many art depots, of a very ineni- ous kmd. It is shaped like a pencil, and ends in a platinum point. The surface of the platinum is reduced to what is known to physicists as the spongy condition, this being heated in the name of a spirit tamp, it is eas.jy and pcrma nently kept hot by throwing on toUahmejetof, benzotine from an indiarubber handba)). H is attached to the pencil and has a tube for dipping into the bt'nzohnc bott)e. With very little practice it is easy to team how to regfiiate the heat of this platinum poker, and with it the most charming designs may be etched by the hot point upon all sorts of useful and orna- menta) trifles for the table, inkstands, porttotios, stamp boxes, photograph frames, &c. Some beautiful specimens were shown, and some of the larger specimens of panels are exceedingly we)! suited for decoration of chimney pieces, over-mantels, and picture frames. I know many ladies who have turned their artistic tatents to good purpose in this way, not only in decorating their homes and those of their friends, but also in replenishing their purses. The objects intended for decora- tion are largely imported from Germany and from Ireland, where this work is being success- fully carried on by the Donegal Industrial Fund, who show some pretty specimens at their depot in Wigmore-st. London, Thursday. PENELOPE. TO CORRESPONDENTS. H. I.—Thanks for your kind letter and sugges- tions for a comfortable bed rest. I think my string hammock which is used to help me op- stairs, or one like it, would make an ndmirabie bed rest to hold pHto\vs when one is silting up. 1 \viU certainly Lry it if occasion should occur again. I ineanundoubted)ytotrycitherAix)es Bains or some other baths if my rheumatism continues. C.D.B.-Singular is it not, that you a!so should ,.up;gest a hammock for a bed rest ? The idea seems to me cxceHeotand I will certainty try it. Thanks for all your kind words.

THE VISIT OF THE RoYAL SHOW TO LHESrEB—A meetinc of the sub-committee who have charge of the local arrangements for the visit of the Royal Agri- cultural Show to Chester next year was held on Saturday, Mr J. Scovell presiding. The chief business was to settle the amount of prizes to be awarded for cheese, and in view of the position of Cheshire as a leading dairy county there was a unanimous agree- ment to make that part of the prize list as attractive as possible, and it was decided to recommend the champion prize to be JE50, but an improvement is made in the other prizes. Altogether JE4&0 will be given as prize money for cheese. There will be eight classes in this department of the exhibition.
FARMING AND THE CORN TRADE.
FARMING AND THE CORN TRADE. The 1.11ark Lane Expre. of Monday says:— The exceptionally line weather which has marked the end of March and the beginning of April has been, unless tradition misleads, a very unusual occurrence, for a variety of weather saws speak of this very period us a cold, wet, and stormy one. Farmers' fears at the present moment are rather not that such a period has been only postponed, but tha.t, as in nia.ny instu.nces within the past ha.lf century, as an under-aver:tge r:nn- fa.11 during the nrst half of the year will be made up by over-avera-ge fall in the second h:df. including the harvest period, when drought is adv.t.nta.geous. TItC autumn-sown whent lo-d&y is improving in cotor, and the starved appearance of a fortnight ago is alter_ ing. Showers are hoped for, together with a genial temperature. A large area has now been sown with spring corn. Cats in some districts have had the preference of barley, but opinion favors the idea of barley, oats and pulse showing a fully-maintained acreage, rye an increase, and wheat a decrease. Some judges think that oats will show an increase. Practically, all agree that wheat is a smaller acreage thun last yeu.r.
MR CHAPLIN ON ALLOTMENTS.
MR CHAPLIN ON ALLOTMENTS. Mr Chaplin, the Minister of Agriculture, attended a congress of members of ra.rtia.ment, ca.ndida.tes, and delegates for Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Warwick- shire, Rutland, and Northamptonshire, at Leicester, on Saturday, under the presidency of the Marquis of Crranby, M'i\—Ueplying to the discussion of the d:).y, the right Iionorable gentleman said he noticed that two prevailing demands were made by a good many of the speakers, one being that to be really ad- vantageous it was necessary that the allotment shoutd be near the home, and the second that it should be held at a fair rent. He sympathised entirely a.nd com- pietelv with both these statements, The general principle he had always endeavoured to keep before him had been to add largely, if possible, to the exist- ing number of landowners. If that couid be achieved in any degree there could hardly be two opinions as to the advantages it would confer. Many laboring men would, under those circumstances, be well and constantly employed who were now often out of work, and it would be good also for the land. It would also benefit the community at large because of the increased produce which would be grown. lie had always held that a man who had so far raised himself as to be able to keep a cow had made a distinct step in agricultural life and he had not known a eaae in which a man had found that cow-keeping did not pay. Cow-keeping was not only a question of small hold- ings it was one of national importance, as they would understand when they considered the enormous amount of dairy produce which was annually imported into the country. (Cheers.) At present they imported annually nearly 20 millions sterling worth of dairy produce, more than the value of the whole wheat crup grown in the country. So far as lie knew, there was absolutely no reason why almost the whole of that should not be produced equally well, and probably a good deal better, in this country. (Cheers.) Two things were of course required for that. First, that a much larger number of cows should he kept—and he knew of nothing more likely to promote that than a great increase of small holdings and, secondly, a con- siderable development of dairy education, for which they must look to their county councils.
SMALL HOLDINGS.
SMALL HOLDINGS. A gentleman farmer, resident in the district, in repty to our Hope correspondent, expresses himself as follows on the above current topic:—Some people there are who would cut all our land up into small holdings. Do you think if my own farm or some other well-known Ja.rge farms were made into ten acre hold- ings that they wouldcarryasmuchstockorproduce the crops us they do now ? I say without fear, Is'o. But, not only that, the men of energy and enterprise, the men who are the backbone of the country, would be driven out of the land, and they would take their capital with them. We must admit that some men are more capable of farming 100 acres titan others of dealing J with ten. We certainly waut farms as stepping-stones for men that are willing to rise, but, if you take an asTicuItural uarish. the tarms of between 200 and 300 acres are the best managed. Exceptions there are. of course, but these are not the rule. I think there is a deal of cant used from platforms and by some of the Press with reference to poor Hodge (as the laborer is called) and the abominable farmer, who is driving the laborer out of the country into the towns by not paying him higher wages. In answer I would say there is no class of men (with due respect to everyone) who are more loyal and have their country s welfare more at heart than the''British Farmer." But how is he repaid hy the country at large ? Often with the greatest contempt. I contend that the farm laborer is paid as well as other men of the same class, and it is not the farmer that is driving him into the towns. Home of the cause is in the townspeople them- selves, who send machinery (which they make.) of every description, and are therefore candidates in the harvest-neld and other work. Another cause is the small margin the farmer has had of late years to employ extra labor, and here again it is the fault of the townspeople for not giving us more remunerative prices for our products, but encouraging the foreigner at every turn. Think of the amount of imports to this country in excess of exports, which must be a drain upon our wealth, na.tura.Ily. Again, the advent into this country of the scum of every other. Trades Unions, too, which often by their strikes stagnate trade and drive it from our shores, these are a few of the reasons why the town labor market is over- stocked, the remedy for which is thought 30 Small Holdings Bill to attract the laborer to the soil. Let me mention one item that is worth the whole Hill (if it was carried out), send less lawyers to Parliament, so that we may have land transfer the same as buying so much stock.
