A Milliner at Court.
London society is supposed to be sh.ooked by the fact that a prominent milliner last week ran the gauntlet of the Lord Chamberlain aad was presented at the last levea. A writer in " Vanity Fair" says : " Tho liberal views entertained by Her Majesty as to who are the proper persons to be received at her drawing-rooms were . strongly illustrated the other day. In one issue of the ' MorninnPost' the admiring public read that Mrs Isaacsons had been presented at the draw-ing-room. A week later the same admiring public, on reading the account of an action at law, ascertained that the lady in question was no other than Madame Elize, the Regent-street milliner. I wonder if any of the ladies she rubbed shoulders with had ever been, through.their husbands, served with writs for unpaid bills, and if so how did they like the meeting ?"
