young widow, whose term of mourning has
just expired, and who energies from the sub
dued hues of the ''trappingS of woe" TO all
the gorgeous tintS of second bellehood.
Forty DAYS as a social chrysalis is quite as
long term as the belle cares TO undergo,
and is ample time for the labors OF the fash

But the season began so early and with
such unusual vigor that it could hardly be
expected to keep it up. Last fall was I'M
usually cool and our first families" had
scarcely warmed their city residences alter
returning from Mnnetonka before the
social season opened in full blast Before
Christmas nearly every lady had exhausted
her reception series and every debutante
had gone the rounds of her seasons outfit
in the costume line. -Four large parties
had been given at the West hotel and as
many swell receptions. No wonder the
season wore itself out. Nothing but the
charity ball could collect any notable gath
ering of fashion after the Christmas holi-
DAYS. and even New Years calling was
SOW and stupid. Everything languished.
To relieve the mOnOtOny and infuse new
life. a private theatrical party organized,
but it lacked energy necessary TO commit
lines and decide the details of costume, and
will quietly wait awhile.
-
The only special activity manifest has
been in the club line. The Minneapolis
club has elegantly fitted up its new quar-
fers in the Rand residence and has home
where its members may well be content to
live. lounge and luXuriate. The Nicollet
club has steadily improved and adorned its

youth" may be found there almost any even
ing. The st. Anthony club of the East
. side is not behind in energy and is stimulat-
ing the East side to higher things, socially,
by its life and elasticity. The Press club
has enjoyed live boom and its new quar-
tiers in Window block are acknowledged
very attractive. The weary Faberites
spend many pleasant hours there-a thing
