The frock coat has: ceased to be worn by men of fashion in London, and is relegated to bank clerks and dry goods floor-walkors. It roccived its . death blow some time ago, when a bride groom belonging to the best set ap- peared at the "altar in a cutaway coat. . For all ordinary social purposes the cutaway (called here: the "morning coat") is worn as full dress for day- light. «The only occasion when the frock coat is still worn is when meet- ing royalty, as at a royal garden par- ty or at Ascot. A man under fifty seen anywhere else in a frock coat is voted quite "'declasse." Donaldson Jottings. Donaldson, June 7.--The milk wag- on has started on this road.

City Officials and Their Office At- tendance. Kingston, June 7.--(To the Edi or): Will you kindly allow me to ask through the eolumns of your paper, what time city officials are supposed to be in their offices. A few days ago I went to a certain: civie office to lay an information and com- Plaint. 1 was told the official in charge was out. [ called three times during the day, only to meet with the same results, and I could not secure the papers. For the henefit of myself and other taxpayers, I want to know if we are paying for officials to come and go at their own pleasure. --RATE- PAYER. The hours 'that the civic offices are open to the public are from 9 a.m, till 4 pm. Oftentimes the heads of the offices have to be out on business, but in nearly all departments there are. recognized assistants who are able to wait upon the public. If they ts snot capable, they shouldn't be in office. Ee Can Taste Wine. The Prince of Wales, who is dining out a good deal this season, has an old-fashioned taste in wine.
