To an pleasures there Is safety. The
present winter has been a gay one in
Wheeling society, and the desire for So
eial enjoyment has been gratided TO re-
pletlon, so that the average devotes
welcomes the advent Of a period which
by the inexorable decree Of Dame
Fashion, relieves one from social ObIi-
cations. This Is the conventional idea,
aud Is no doubt the outgroWth OF the
religious observance Of the forty days
preceding Easter. But there are many
persons who do not observe Lent, aud
as a consequence there will be a sufi-
Client number OF interesting affairs to
maintain interest To society until after
Easter. Afternoon teas and other in
formal gatherings are not generally re-
garded as incompatible with q proper
regard for the cOnventiOnaiities Of the
season, aud they will therefore DO very
numerous during the coming weeks.
