NEW YORK, Nov. 81 had been to the
frst afternoon tea of the season. l came
home with q vague impression on my mind
Of the people met there. OF the ordinary
woman, of the special woman, and OF all
sorts and conditions Of women. They
walked before me like pilot graphs. though,
by the by, l don't think photographs walk;
but what l mean IS, that this array OF
women kept passing like Il panorama be-
fore me until l wondered. TO use the latest
slang, IF 1 were getting dotty In my gray

There was the woman who " as new-pain-

her trap is Lew, aud she has not learned the

is the woman who has gotten her her invita-
tion and who is going around aud helping

goes al out telling OF her ingretitude, but
nobody pays much attention Co the other
woman, for her ways are well known to al

DEAR ne, HOW INNOCENT!
Then there comes picture, pretty one.
of the girl who has just been introduced;
she is wearing an empire at With a broad

and big felt hat picturesque with feathers.
She looked the pesonltcaJion Of innocence.
She stands by mamma and clutches at her

Morally. she is blot on the surface Of the
earth; the wrong sue hasn't done hes not
been for lack of knowledge. but for lack Of
opportunity, aid yet she looks as innocent

is the product of education away from
home, and In the French boarding school
she learned much more than her alphabet
aud much less than the law OF right and

DIRTY. UNrIDY, BUT RICH.
There is another horrid picture dancing
before me; it is the picture of an old woman
"a dirty, untidy old woman, who because
of her name and wealth, is received every
where, who can make black the reputation
of a woman. aud who doesn't hes tate to do
it. She elects very odd way; she com.

that there is 3 dark-haired fellow always

SOCIAL LITERARY WORKERS.
The next picture is that of society lit
erary woman She has written one article
which magazine published because they
knew her name would carry 1t, and tuat
she would buy half the edition. She has
written three hymns and lullaby, and SIZE
believes the literature of the day will
emanate solely from her. She has a worn
and tired look, and everybody con
doles with her and tells her that
abe is working too hard. She has
given me description of the most adorable
study imaginable. The sort of study where
