The term society is usually under
stood to refer to the more cultivated
portion of any community. High
cultivation leads to refinement Refine
ment is next door TO purity Society,
therefore, includes those people who are
supposed to be on the road to purity.
How pleasant TO contemplated What
honor there is in being included in this
class! This is the ideal Let us ex-
anime the real \ young man enters
upon new field of operations in a
community that boasts of"geod society,"
He is cultivated. His profession is such
as to demand his entrance into society.
His inclinations lead him in the same
direction. The most of his life is before
him. He has a reasonable amount of
ambition for success. He desires to be
at peace with the social world. He is
not apt to find castles in society. If he
found this state of affairs he would no
doubt soon find the particular caste
marked out for him. If he is anxious
to enter what is indefinitely called the
chest" society, he viii not find an
upper ten into which to aspire for
admission. On the contrary, he is likely
to find a half dozen or more upper
tens all the same grade, but divided in
to factions. If he has good char
acter and fair cultivation each faction
desires his society. He desires to be
on good terms with all of the factions.
He endeavors to avoids taking sides
in social controversies which origi-
mated before his advent into the COM
munity. He is invited first into the
society of one faction, then another, and
another and so on. He is petted and
cuddled, aud cuddied and petted, by
each. He is loaded with gossip about
this, that and the other person. Into
his ears are poured hi ghly colored ac-
counts of the disputes, passions,
jealousies, etc, that have been devel-
oped by social misunderstanding Of
past yearsP If he becomes disguise i
with this, his only course is to turn his
back upon society and leave it before he
has fairly entered It. If he still desires
to enter society and is evenly balanced,
he will neither pay any at
tention to gossip, nor himself indulge in
it. This often causes him to be dropped
and cut by one after another of the
factions. He soon finds that he must
either identify himself with one faction
or with none. If he chooses to do the
former, he loses the good will of all but
those of his particular clique. If he
decides upon the latter course, and does
not care to identify himself with any
particular faction, he eventually finds
himself in state of ''inocuous desue-
tuden
This is society as it too often is, and
if the candidate for society honors
doesn't like the condition of affairs,

To all Local Boards of Health IN Wis
This Board has very recently
received official notice of the occurrence
ofcases Of Small Pox in nearly al! the

also information, official and other, of
the existence of that disease in various
parts of the United States. In Cali
fornia it is SO prevalent that 1t has been
declared epidemic by the Board of
Health of that State.
AS this disease may be contracted in
one State and develope in one far dis.
tant therefrom. these facts are eminent
ly suggestive of danger to us in Wis,
and they are furnished for the infor-
nation of Local Health Boards in this
State with the earnest suggestion that
such Board should be carefully on their
guard, and should watch with vigilance
duringth ordinary period ofincubation
of Small Pox Casually about fourteen
days), lest it develop in the persons OF
