Week-Pers0nal Mention.

The Weddings and General Melange of the
Week-PersonaI Mention.
Has the gentle reader ever given the ribbon
to his imagination-foated in the empyrean
of melted moonshine and tatfy as it were-and
while pricking this most shrewish faculty
with the golden spur of fancy, permitted his
pegasus to gallop into the fairy regions of
romance! No? Well, then, he has never been
there.
That is to say, he has never donned the
| metaphorical claw hammer coat of the solid
muldoon who evolves social creeds on the
status of society. In case he had been there
| himself he would realize what it was to let his
fancy go pick-nicking for the orange bios
SONS and hay leaves of pOesy with which to
| weave a chaplet to frame melange of social
| doings in these presumably golden days of
June.
This on a damp night in the midst of a
thunder storm with creased lightning tickling
the telephone at your elbow and playing a
| fandango that would discount pandemonium.
And this is the layout at this writing. At
any rate there has been goodly quiet of hap
penings and what matters it where the string
| is so long as your kite is above the clouds.
Socially, the weeks doings have been spiced
by several happy weddingsi and the curled
little darling who waits on hymen-he of the
scant clothing and quivers-has made several
notable conquests. Still the queer old world
goes round and a turn of the crank, this time,
results in what is hereto appended.
