:258 LADIES ON HOESEBACK. 



Evelyn Haekess. — Your parcel has not 

 reached me. My tailor will endeavour to 

 please you. 



Jane Y. — A very cruel practice. 



Eefoem. — ^You will see that I have acknow- 

 ledged your letter. Judging hy the post- 

 mark it should have come to hand three 

 days ago, but you gave the wrong address, 

 and it went on a seeking expedition. 

 " Dublin " will at any time find me. This 

 is also for "Quilp," ^'B. Max," and ^'Violet 

 Grey." 



Ella. — ^Your horse is evidently a rough 

 trotter, and can never be pleasant to ride. Try 

 to exchange or sell him. 



Maey Peeplexed. — The pommels of your 

 saddle are most likely too far apart ; that is, 

 the leaping head is placed too low. If you 

 cannot change it, ride with a longer stirrup- 

 leather. I have been lately shown the 

 preparation for an improved side-saddle, by 

 Messrs. F. V. Nicholls & Co., of 2 Jermyn 

 Street, comprising a patented arrangement 

 for the third crutch or leaping-head. I think 

 that this will be a great boon to those ladies
