Tousekcepcrs who are nervous about holding one
two.story house in order, may hang their heads IN
contemplating how So vast an establishment can be-
kept going 10 the satisfaction of the guests
But all Saratoga bristcs with hotels and board
mc.houses adapted to the means and wants of the
public. Congress Hall and others are immense cs-
Adjustments, only second Ia the one in question:;
and the quiet little places where cconomical people
can thrive are very numerous.
In addition to the hotels there are two or more
places at Saratoga Lake. seven miles from the
town. where they get up dinners and breakfasts IN
capital STYLE including specially OF crlspcd wafer
potatoes, which every sane person Is expected 10
eat. The drives around Saratoga are not numer-
ous: for. excepting another Ia Prospect Ill., about
nine miles of there is nothing 10 note. The water,
however, il deseryedly famous, but must be- drunk

Does not everybody know them Not one per

Conversation at Saratoga is also cathartc, a.
general rule The men are conservative. They
dose YOU with the political caStOr-ol of this day
and ofdavs gone by. | have 10 hear a circle here
who have given any consciousness of political know
edge VIXEN airing some times as they WILL " Sec
tinnal " matters, Notwithstanding as rule politics
are taboed. In the swashy talk OF this kind such
little matters as the comparative resources al North
and south are as much overlooked aS though facts
regarding the States were as impossible 10 arrive
AT as the undivided mysteries of futurty The
women here however, talk better because they
talk about what they understand Wives vote with
their husbands and daughters with their papaS and
beyond that do not NEEDLE with politics. But ii
on political economics there were any doubt OF tine
rich growing richer and the poor grow
irp power in this country, notwithstanding
the mathusian donkeysms which have so salts
fed all the talents of the greatest universities the
doubt would be removed by inspecting the ehbo-

Everything that Europe can produce to certify to
tie death of the prnverb that beauty unod"rned -
adorned the most, is waited around the great ball
room. Many dress, jewelry inclusive, costs what
would hay several quarter sections.
Bellies: hate bellcs-that is, that vulgar fungus
of American belleship. Some girl who, never so
handsome as she thinks herself, and seldom really
accomplished. expects six men to wait on her ut
once-each one to be satisfied with word in
every six, perhaps doing the duty of Il valet at the
same time There be nations who won't put up
with such stuff. and where young lady would
lO.e caste by painting her face, and endcyorlng to
gain serious sutOrs for the purpose of throwing
them off. In this operation the feminine heart be-
comes as hard as an old StOn cheese, and as the
eternal powers will not lie the face OF the belle be-
comes as hard as her heart. In the older portion OF
the Union bellies, as profession Of slaughtcrers,
have largely gone out, if they ever came in; III
some of the newer pOrtOns-the Lord deliver us.
Beaux: Hayewe the article in this country Hard
" yet. The absolutely busness-treed man--the man
OF manifold culture for society pure and simple
the man who always travels with valet and who
thinks with Brummell tina, with rigid economy
zone can dress on $500 year'-this article seems
wanting at our watering places.
Well now the season has SO dwindled down that
the crowds Of hundreds have become twenties or
tens. and soon those who stay will feel like - one
who treads alone some banquet hall deserted"
And what becomes of the great bulk of this life,
low and loneliness, and when will the identical
three meet here again What becomes of rocket
sticks Eheu!
