PERSONAL AND SOCIETY.

Another quiet social week is recorded.
the lull being broken only by lawn fete
or two, and midsummer concert. 1t is not
very warm. SO that cannot be given as an
excuse for not entertaining. While it is
not customary TO entertain during this
period of the year. the principal reason for
social quietness is that many are gone
from ones circle of friends whom the
would-be entertainer might like to have
here in case she gave party, luncheon or
reception. All the gayety is reserved for the
out-of-town people. but the fun and frolIc
among them do not suit all who 60. 1t Is
told Of some ladies who thought they
would like TO go TO resort and have some
of the ''fun," that they provided themselves
with all the parephernalia the several
friends suggested, such as flannel dresses,
heavy shoes. wide-brim hats and the like.
One bright morning they set out for their
fun Those who enjoy ed it so much did
not mind hard beds, poor food, leaky boats.
mosquitoes and the other diversions. but
two ladies arrived inst before supper time,
with hearty appetites. Their first misery
they experienced was poor tea. Then
mosquitoes came TO add discomfort to a
hard bed The partition between the
rooms was so thin that the neighbors could
hear every word every other neighbor
would say. The ladies were not
much rested in, the, morning. and
for the first day was disappointment to
them When night came they wanted to
come home. After a whispered consulta-
ton they decided they would try and stand
IL for week. because if they left at once
they would have so many dlsagreeable
questions to answer. In exactly seven days
they came home. To strangers they say
they were pleased. but to the inmates of
their own homes they express themselves
as disguised with such a rough life. and
believe that hereafter when the want to go
TO resort they will visit place which has
all the comforts of home and none of It's re-
probabilities.
