" : Sey The Italian Riviera is becoming in conse creasingly popular with English peo- ple and few places have gained more in favor than San Remo. Many of the villa holders are British born, and half the hotetlists are made up of Anglo Saxon names. Cannes is, as usual at this season, crowded with the English aristocracy. One of the popular amusement resorts here, next to the celebrated goli links, is the Municipal Casino. People have adopted it; fore it ofiers something worth having or seeing every twenty- four hours. Indeed, if the management goes on in the way it has begun there 18 no reason why the Casino should not become as much a feature of Cannes life as the Golf Club is It is the more likely because. there is a well-bred air about the entertain ments, and at present, at all events, a marked absence of the giddy element common to the public resorts of Nice and Monte Carlo. The Grand Duke Michael of Russia took twelve players from Cannes to Nice on Saturday to play against the Nice Golf Club. The Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, the Earl and Countess of Essex and many other well-known people motored to' the links. x Those who played for Cannes in- cluded Sir Edgar Vineent, General Sir Arthur Paget, Gerald wot, Captain Greville, Captain Holford, Colonel Corran and Mr. Saunderson The Nice team included Lord Gran-, ville Gordon, Hay Gordan, Mr. Swift Mr. Deschamps and Mr. Turner. Nice won the singles by seven matches to five, and Cannes won the fourson two matches.

In nlmost every large family where brothers and sistors are thrown into daily intrequrse there is usually to "be found ore or more members who are afflicted with the petty fault of jealousy, To give the boys their due it is only fair to add that itis among the girls that jealousy generally makes its appearance, x Perchance one of the younger girls becotnes engaged before her elder sisters, thus giving them the excuse for sarcastic remarks, all of which are the direct outcome of jealousy. They resent her elevation to the dignity of ah engaged givk and thus what should prove the happiest period in the girl's life is marred and ren- dered miserable by the gibea of her sisters Another cause ob jealousy in the home life is the subject of clothes. Some girls always look well in their clothes, and though a dress may have been worn several times by a pretty girl, her plainer sister, even should she have a new one on, cannot compare in it with the beauty of the other girl, and thus perhaps naturally feels a little jealous : Then there is another kind of jeal- ousie-the sulien jealousy of the girl who chooses to faney herself misunder- stood by her family. She is one that stands a disunited unit in an other wige united household. Her hahd is against everybody, and it pleases her to imagine that everybody's hand is She profors to poso as the r. amd resents any friend- 3 # on the part of her rela tions 'est such should depose her from 1 hir solf«levated pedestal. That such a girl is unhappy needs no chronicling; but at the same time it must be understood that her only happiness in life is her martyrdom, without which she would literally be a new creature and not know herself, A Chart Of Conduct.
