The Duchess of Orleans on Her Own Personal Looks. Perhaps no woman was ever better rgc- onciled to positive ugliness in her oWn person than the Duchess of Orleans, the mother of the Regent d'Orleans, who gov- erned France during the minority of Louis XV. Thus she writes of her own appear- | ance and manners: “From my earliest years I was aware how ordinary my appearance was, and did not like that people should look at me attentively. I never paid any attention to dress, because my husband used to make me rouge, which I did greatly against my will. One day I made the Countess Soissons laugh heartily. She asked me why I never turned my head when I passed a mirror —everybody else did. I answered, ‘Be- cause I have too much selflove to bear the sight of my own homeliness.” I must have been very homely in my youth. 1 had no sort of features. with little, twitch- ing eves, a_ short, stub nose and long, thick lips. The,whole of my physiognomy was far from attractive. “My face was large, with fat cheeks, and my figure was short and stumpy. In Short, I was a very homely sort of per- Son. Except for the goodness of my dis- position, no one would have endured me. It was impossible to discover anything like intelligence in my eves, except with a microscope, Perhaps there was not on the face of the earth such another pair of ugly hands as mine. The King often told me so, and set me Iaughlng about it. for as I was quite sure of being ugly I made up my mind to be always the first to laugh at it. This succeeded very well, thongh 1 must confess it furnished me with a good stock of materials for laugh- - ‘One thing that always surprised me was how anybody could ever fall in love with me. [ was notoriously the most homely woman in the French court, and vet I was only nineteen when 1 was mar- ried. I often asked my husband whether my looks did not repel him, and what he saw in me that he should fall in love. To my questions I have never received a satisfactory answer, but it seems to me that other qualities, in lack of beauty, caused his attraction.”—New Orleans Pic- ayune. —_————— Bombay is an immense city, with land sea shipping equal to the best.
