SOCIETY DOINGS.
An Active Week and Especial Liveliness
in the Matrimonial Market

An Active Week and Especial Livelines
in the Matrimonial Market
| From society standpoint the pas
week has been one of exceptional activity
Event has succeeded event and there ha
been a going hither and thither most re
freshing to the onlooker. There ha
been on us an eclipse, stellar, and a
jerks would say, several events of mino
mention.
In these days, however, one doesn'
have to look at the almanac to see which
way the wind is blowing. The devotees
of society, like the retinue of Cynthia
are law unto themselves Only a fort
night ago and society abandonded its
winter festivities in parting hop.
| The glare and bewilderment and Ian
| gushing melody of the ball and drawing
room had no sooner died out than away
went the sheen and bedizenment of per-
| sonal accessories, and the society put on
| its summer clothing to the Warbling sing
song of promenade all, as the master OF
ceremonies laid away his baton until next
season.

Northwest all things are possible. Sweet
Belinda and Charles Augustus may do
the grand at inland lake or more preten-
tious seaside resort, whilst the man with
the hurdy-gurdy grinds out "Annie Lau-
rie," with variations Of "Babies in Our
Block" at the street corner, at a nickel a
ream, and the lonely listener or appreci-
ative small boy wonders why life was
made SO short.
