OCKLAWAKA.--Certainly, it is quite improper to walk about alone with a man to whom you are not engaged. We know of no cure suitable for all alike for sea-sickness. Lie down on deck, drink water before being sick, and beware of starving. At the same time, do not select pork nor a suet dumpling just at first. In cases of very severe sickness, swallowing small scraps of ice before and after a spoonful of _consomme_ or jelly is desirable, and an icebag should be applied to the spine. A TRING GIRL should consult a doctor about the moles if very unornamental. LADY JANE GREY.--The "seven whistlers" are curlew, or herringspear birds, thought to be storm-bringers when heard overhead at sea. You will find a story in Buckland's "Curiosities of Natural History" about them. ANNIE SPIKE should write to the Religious Tract Society, 56, Paternoster-row, E.C., for the tracts she needs. The lines are not poetry--nothing but badly-rhymed prose. HARTY.--Wills can be inspected at Somerset House, in the Strand, W.C. UNE PETITE FLEUR.--No one could interfere with you in keeping a private school, so far as we know. JAMIE'S DARLING.--We thank you warmly for your kind letter, and wish you much happiness in your new life and position. NO STONE UNTURNED must send her tale to a publisher; but we do not think she will get much--probably nothing; but, on the contrary, will have to pay, for a first attempt. ASPHODEL.--The 29th of April, 1870, was a Friday. When a man says he is "very much in love" with the girl to whom he is speaking, he means her to give him some encouragement to say more, and in a business-like, practical way. A FEARFUL ONE.--A polypus in the nose has to be cut out, but the patient must be under the influence of chloroform. It is more usually a man's than a woman's disease. Your letters should be rounder. UNE DEMOISELLE.--It is our ordinary form of greeting to say "How do you do?" It is an idiomatic phrase, and does not exact an answer as to the state of your health any more than the salutation "Good day." If anxious for information as to how you are, more direct inquiries will follow the salutation. Only ignorant persons reply to "How do you do?" "Very well, thank you; how are you?" A. B.--The first and second volumes of the G. O. P. are entirely out of print, as also are all the indexes, excepting that for vol. vi. None of these will be reprinted. We request our readers to take note of what we say, as it will save them waste of time in writing for them. RUBY KINGSLEY.--We cannot continue giving space for repeating the story of the willow pattern. * * * * *
