wearisome work to fine lady than
logging to a Maine lumberman. How
glad she must be when the show Is
over. and she can put of her reception

cut of their element than when thrown
by circumstances into fashionable
society. They generally retire from
it at the first convenient opportunity
with feeling of pity and commiser'
alton for the human hollow-ware OF
which it is principally composed.
And, really. the devotees OF fashion
pay an immense price for their whis'
tie. There is no such thing as solid
comfort or hearty enjoyment in the
Vanity Fair where they play their
trumpery parts.
Grand parties are the dreariest OF
all dreary pageants. When boy, we
thought Quaker meetings rather dull
affairs; but silence is infinitely better
than fashionable small talk, and unob-
trusive drab than glare Of splendor
that fatigues the eye and disgusts the
