assortment or silver spoons Is the nap
piest of the happy, and if every one
bears 4 monogram not the same as her
own family plate. her JOY amounts to
delirium. The idea is to have these
spoons as souvenirs at dinners and
teas, and each guest carries her
spoon home to add to her collection.
ThiS is an expensive addition to a
Feast, and is, therefore, necessarily
short lived, but While it lasts it will
keep the jewellers at their wits end, for
each party must have a new design for
Its spoons. Mrs. Summit Avenue would
never, never consent to have her spoons
The same as were presented by Madame
Irvine Park, while Mrs. Col. Crocus
Hill would expire if the jeWeler sent
her the same pattern as she had pre-
scented her at the green dejeuner given
by the widow Of Gen. Dayton :. Bluff.
The spoons must be marked with the
monogram of the hostess and tied with
Eibbon of her favorite shade.

The Schurmeier fete champetre of
Monday night, the beauty of which
was sadly married by the inclement
weather, was the society event of the
week, notwithstanding. 1t is true the
champetre part Of the fete was obliter-
ated, but the evening was gaily and
pleasantly enough spent to atone for all
mi6haps. Beyond this event, the week
was rather quiet, though every
grade and station of Soci-
ETY. had its wedding party
and its evening tea, sufficient to keep
up the social organization, at least.
The pastors who chose this time for
their vacations knew their business, as
weddings are usually lucrative and
they cannot afford to miss the harvest.
The odd years fall for weddings, you
know, and the genial pastor will re-
turn just about the time the orange
blossoms will bloom.

While nearly every lady who went to
the lakes is still there, there are enough
people in the city when an event hap
pens along to call them out. And they
will soon be joined by the resorters.
The season is drawing to close, and
the Young lady may now count the
hearts on her chain, for the list is about
complete. There may still be some
eleventh-hOur CaptiYeS, and SO
the girls stay on. This is the delightful
season, if they had but known it, even
though the waters are chilly III the
morning and dews heavy at night. The
travellers abroad are still intent on sight
seeing, and for several weeks yet the
European registers will bear the name
