Fashionable Life.

If there is any enjoyment which can
degrade a human being or harden Il young
heart, it is the atmosphere of merely fash
ionablo life. You may may take the
tenderest and most beautiful and lovely
girl, the one that is kindest at home and
loves her father and mother best, and put
her into the highest circles of fashionable
life, with plenty Of money and plenty Of
scope to do as she will cover herself
with diamonds and pearls, costly silks and
%laces let the love of admiration become
the controlling passion and by and by all
the tenderness of that young creature
passes away, her thoughts concentrate
upon herself, what a figure she is cutting,
who her admirers are, what conquest she
can make; and by and by the youth
full, beautiful modesty is gone, and the
way is open for vice that in the beginning,
would not have been dreamed of, or if
thought of, put away as utterly impossi-
