The End of the Gay Season.

The gay season in fashionable society
has come to an early end with Lent as
there will be no more balls and parties
and receptions to go to, there now
begins a season of religious dissipation.
and for forty days society will chiefly
go to church. There will be some
slight diversions in the way Of lunch
cons and other strictly Lenten enter
talnments, but AFTER the unusual
tatigues aud exactiOns of the past VIM
ter the rest that began with Ash We'd
nesday must be very grateful to those
modern Christian martyrs who haye
been sacrificing themselves to their
social duties for so many weary weeks.
1t is all very won for men to laugh
at this sort Of thing. but what do men
know Of social duties? Trustworthy
statistics show that the guests at an
evening party average two women to
one man, and yet this IS almost tho
only form of entertainment in which a
man has enough selfsacrifce to take
part, He will go to dinners, of course,
but that is mere selfish indulgence.
Lent makes more difference to the
average woman than to the average
man. And that is not only because il
makes more difference in her Oeeupa-
tions. It's because the average woman
understands what abstinence and self
denial and devotion mean, while to the
average man these are mere sentimen-
tai virtues, which he expects of women,
but for which he personally has no use.
1t is probable that the proportion of
men at afternoon prayers will not be
much larger than it has been at the
afternoon teas; but that is no credit TO
,he men. 1t is not even certain that
hey can have their Lenten duties per-
ormed for them vicariously by the
as they had their social
burdens borne for them through the
eason past.-PhiEGdelpAia Times.

THE LAND OF THE AFTER
NOON.

An ola man sits in his garden chair,
watching the sunlit western sky.
"hat sees he in the blue depths there,
Where only the Isles of Memory lie?
There are princely towers and castles bipb
lhere are gardens fairer than human ken.
There are happy children thrunring bv.
hadlant women and stately men,
Singing with voices of sweet attuuo
the songs of the Land of the Aftrrnoon
Ihe old man watches form of cloud
mat noats where the azure island are
anu ne sees homestead gray and loved,
And hand that beckons him afar
u cheek of roses and hair of goldI
U, eyes of heavens divinest blue!
Long have ye lain in the graveyard mold
But love is infinite, love is true:
lie will find her-yes-it must be soon.
lhey will meet in the Land of the Afternoon
me shy mas changed, and Il wreck of cloud
lSdnVlng athwart its troubled face.
Inc golden mist is a trailing shroud.
II Is cold and bleak in the garden nlacn
Inc oid man smiles and droops his head
Inc thln hair blows from his wrinkled brow
Inc sunset radiance has appeared
Oer every wasted feature now:
one sigh eXhales like breath in June
lie has found the Land of the Afternoon.

compared with those of several foreign
powers, and yet there is little reason to
hope for any material enlargement or
improvement, although the Treasury is

oh, my little lost kingling!

The reduction of Internal Revenue
tax on tobacco, instead of making the
price lower to the consumer, says the
Cecil Whig, has had directly contrary
effect, and it costs more now than be-
fore the reduction. This is one Of the
classes of monopoly that should not be
tolerated by the people. The govern
ment to relieve the consumers, takes
Oft large portion of the tax, but in
stead of giving the consumer the bene-
fit of this reduction, the manufacturer
and dealer combined, keep the price
up to old figures, and each pocket one
half the reduction. There are mil
lions in il far them, but how about the

oranges, which will net the growers
81 100000. The crop next year will
be very much larger, as thousands of
acres of young trees will commence
bearing. The increase in the west
ward shipments of oranges compared
with last year was at least five huadred
per cent, and yet the supply was nos
