BOstOn's Mixed Club.

Among the new clubs of Boston is the
Unity, a club composed of men and
women whose object is the further.
interests. Its members include large
proportion of the artists of the city, and
it inaugurated its second season by a
water color exhibition.
There are no lack of mems clubs and
of women's clubs in Boston, as in other
cities; but the club where men and
women meet is as rare as are most ideal
things in this world. The regulation
womens club is rather dreary affair,
as it is now conducted. Instead of hav.
ing parlors, reading room and dining
room always open, as is the case with
mems clubs, where members may drop
in at any time and meet each other, and
invite friends and enjoy informal socia-
bility, the women's club unlocks the
doors of its portals for some one after.
noon a week when its members and
guests assemble, and after routine bust
ness, carried on in strict parliamentary
order, a paper is read and discussed as
formally as at any public meeting and
then the club adjourns till another week
to go through the same routine again,
This may be all very well in some ways,
but it is not the social pleasure that club
life should render possible.
The Unity club here starts out on
other lines. 1t is, first of all, club for
men and women together. it has Sc
cured ideally beautiful rooms on Ar
lington street, overlooking the public
gardens. 1t has fine gallery for pic
ture hanging, and it is based on an idea
that should develop, as the club grows
stronger, into very attractive and
happy social center. Boston Cor. New
Orleans Times Democrat.

Cornelius B. Wood, and is erected as
memorial of his wife. who was a sister

love by husband and children in mem
oriam of one who was friend of work
| ing girls, who rejoiced when the associa.
ton was organized, who labored for il
and had faith in the grand work it would
accomplish"
Mr.. Wood not only gave $l25 200, but
increased this to $l42 900. The endow
ment fund now amounts to 1922 ,50l, ana
the association is aiming to increase
this to $3.50, 600. The building is cen
trally located, and INTELLECTUALLY is an
ornament to the city. The vestbult
contains big open fireplace. Opposite
to this is the secretary's room. On thi.
floor are also the cloakroom and the en-
frances to the elevators, and through s
