&<S3sS&KESSM who attempts TO keep
SANSW8N up with them can
Y,SSsEWk burden his mind with
hOEE&Zkk little else, says the st.
SE3kSE Louis Republican. A
(@aL@a young man ofwealthy
W. family, who believes
that idleness is a
curse, and has entered upon a professional
career that engro2ses much of his time, OBJ
served: 81 went on a visit to Chicago for
about three weeks, just before Christmas.
There is no society in ChicagO-that Is,
there are no people there who have moth
ing else to do but be fashionable, But
there is what might be termed a social life
in Chicago, which is more enjoyable than
any society | have encountered. 1t is
like the life of q country village. 1t Is the
relaxation and enjoyment after each
DAYS work is done. What / ahom-
mate in st. Louis is the constant
effort to invent some new rule by which
to gauge q fellows right or u woman's
right to lie admitted to the inner circle, or
to exclude persons from the n circle.
Thus | believe ii is the latest fad that at
an afternoon tea one must drink his cup OF
tea. miserable stuff at best, with ones
lett baud. If a fellow fails in the least
particular 10 such things he is counted,
ont, and they talk behind his back and
make him feel uncomfortable. 1t is all
rot, sheer rot, but we all bow down to such
unutterably stupid tyranny without so
much as a protest. By Jove, though, l
notice that n girl who insists on q fellows
going in for all that sort of thing never
marries one Of them. They select their
husbands from among the fellows who
work hard. It's a queer world, isn't it?"
Society in Wheeling has been very gay the

up from now on till Lent is ushured in.
