Sabah Bernhardt ia spending her summer in a little villa in St. John's Wood within a stone's throw of the Priory, where George Eliot lived for thirty years. We wonder if Sarah is ever reminded that George referred to marriage as a sweet, short poem followed by many chapters of unconscionably dull prose. Sarah must have known that before George wrote for she never waited for the prose, Oliver Wendell Holmes once com mented on a Holbein portrait thus: "That eye God gave him. That forehead God gave him in part, but he lias put the wrinkles upon it himself; but the mouth. God gives that to each one of us to make for himself." Any part of a self made man is bad, hut the mouth ireuerally ad vertisesaud intensifies the other lia, ! jobs God gives the forehead, hut man adds the »Tinkles to it, if a woman does not get at it first.
