i'm Modern Society.
New York Times.l
The conditions of modern city life are
not favorable to prosperous matrimonial
engagements The prosperity of such an
engagement depends chiefly upon an in
innate personal acquaintance between
the proponents. Such an acquaintance
is well-nigh impossible in a city, crowded
with innumerable activities and beset
with social distractions. If the young
man studiously conceals his little irregu-
larities and foibles, no less does the young
woman always wear her company face"
with her company dress"
His instinct is to appear pink of all
the manly virtues she would rather be
burned at the stake than see uncovered
the small failings of temper and dispo-
sition, which, if all disclosed, might hint
of graver faults beneath. Women, with
their multitudinous social cares and en-
gagements, find it impossible to invite
into their homes even the young men
whose society they know should be de-
sirable to young women within their
gates. The evening party, the decorous
and formal dinners, and that abomina-
tion OF mankind, the kettledrum or after
noon tea are mere mockeries of social
life.
In no such assemblies as these do the
young men ever learn to know young
women. Yet, beyond these, few city
families ever venture, Into the domes-
tic circle only small number of safe old
fellows, long since gone to seed are ever
admitted. The young men, who do not
care to be perpetually going to tiresome
receptions and yet more tiresome family
dinners, find their comfort and pleasure
at the club. 1t is an open question
whether the club fourishes in the CITY
because of the deficiencies of social life
or whether the barrenness is due to the
prosperity Of the club. Between tine two
there is a great gulf fixed.
With show of reason, many women
consider the club the enemy of social
happiness. Unquestionably, the club is.
refuge for the young man who seeks So
cial intercourse and does not find it in
the unhomelike parlors of his married
acquaintance. In the club he may con-
suit his own individual taste in matters
of eating and drinking, and he may be-
rate the servants and growl at the House
Managers, as he would not do in his own
private house, In a mans club, this
need not be considered selfish and brutal.
To most men, it is relief to have at least
one privileged resort where one may be
selfish and brutal. At home, with wife
in 1t, is not such place.

The Elka' Social.

The Cincinnati Lodge of Elks gave
smother of their delightful social sessions at

esnerally pronounced one of the most
entertaining of these very pleasant occa-
siona The hall was filled to its utmost,

room, and the audience was as notable for
ens appearance and keen appreciation as
eR Its size.
The entertainment opened with sketch
ty Mr.. and Mrs. James Collins-a thor
eughly enjoyable opening, that put every

Mr.. J. B. Mccormick then recited Dollars
snd Dimes and was very warmly ap-
plauded.
Mrs. R. Kohlbrand then gave some vocal
selections In excellent style. The lady has
D fine voice, well cultivated, and knows
bow to use it to good advantage. The next
name on the programme was that OF Miss
Anna Proctor, daughter of Mr.. Joseph

Begonia.

About two centuries ago French navigator nameu Begon brought from Asia a new plant, which is still called after him, Begonia. Few readers would suspect the part this plant plays in the production of the handsome shawls so prlzed by ladies. The best by far of these are made in Cashmere beautiful district at the foot of the Himalaya mountains. The material used in their manp fracture is the finest down from the Thibet goat. Every one has probably remarked the singularlv graceful pat terms with which they are ornamented, and perhaps wondered whether they were studies from nature or the produc- ton of the artists brain. Trey are the former. Nature in the East supplies admirably graceful leaves on which the sun designs delicate ornaments, and the workmen Of Cashmere initiate them, as the Grecian sculptors copied the curves O. the acanthus in the Corinthian car-
 tals. These leaves are those of the be- Eonia. When the French arrived in Egypt. nit the end of the last century = they were surprised to see the Orientals wearing costumes. shawls, turbans, sashes etc., of beautiful cashmere work. They greatly admired these dresses, which Tell SO gracefully on the human form. When the conquerors of the. pyramids returned to France they dis played their rich booty, which immedi- Ately came into fashion among the ladies. From that period they have constantly remained in high favor. Their prices vary from $20O 10 $400. Under the empire, no lady with any pretension went out without a Cash mere shawl. The taste for these arti-s cles, although not so great as formerly. has not entirely ceased, However, 1t is very rarely now that persons wears a real Indian Cashmere; the article in general use gre the product of French manufacture.
