THE BRINGING UP OF WOMEN.
10 TUB XOITOR Of T3B THESS. Sir. -The letters by "E.S." on bringing up women have been read and admired by very many thinking readers ot your valuable paper. Unadulterated truths are never popular. It's quite a return to old times to read such letters as "E.S." wrote. Of course, he only meant some women, as there are thousands of really good ones left yet. I was at a friend's place yesterday, and one of the young uieu asked his mother for a pair of socks. Mother brought a pair of lovely black Cashmere socks, but the young man said, "Mother, what do you tako mo for? Do vou think I can wear black socks with light trousers? Why, that's out of date years ago. Let me "have those nocks. Mother, please, with the fawn stripe to match my puts." Now 1 was woudering, Sir, if hard times come along and one of our young women got married to ;i young man who wants his socks to match the foleur of his trousers, wllat the end of it all wili be.—Yours etc., HELP. February Otli.
