ELEANOR'S LETTER

visions OF day when nearly all OF the
PARTIES that will be given will be for
men. Now. you will say am incon-
sistent, complaining Of too much gayety
and then finding fault because there is
danger that ! will be shut out Of a
few things that are going ON. Ny dear
s.. you know very well that the people
who complain OF the exactions of society
are the very people who would die with
out society. This winter has been pro-
life OF dinner parties for men only"
and the idea seems to be catching. l
like to 60 out to dinner myself. and 1
like to have a good partner "a man.
Tonight, Friday, Mr.. and Mrs. Ogden
will give one OF these masculine enter.
sainments. There are to be six men
around the table.
Miss Mount went home this week.
She lives in Omaha. as told you. She
spent three weeks as the guest OF Miss
Slaughter, and ] am sure she had
pretty gay time. as the two have long
string OF friends between them. Miss
Mcclure, OF Mt. Pleasant. who has been
visiting her sister, Mrs. w. F. Kelley. ex-
poets to leave for home in a day or two.
The d. e. Thompsons have returned
from Mexico, and Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Hall are back from Florida.
Only few Lincoln people have had
the pleasure Of being entertained at the
Patricks' in Omaha. Mr.. and Mrs.
Lambertson aud Miss Sherwood had
that pleasure last Sunday.
There have been several large recep-
tons this season. The first one Mrs.
w. NJ. Leonard gave, the second was
given q week or two ago by Mrs. G. M.
Lambertson. and then came Mrs.
Kelley's. Mrs. McMurtry received
the same crush on Wednesday.
The place where each OF these ladies
keep their gods is 30 large that it is not
quite correct to call their receptions
brushes. had all the room l wanted
and 90 had everybody else. Fancy a re-
ception only moderately attended each
lady with the exact hygienic number of
cubic feet OF air about her and no neces.
sity for screaming into the ear Of her
Leighbor! Could anything be more
stupid and bovine? Well. it was not
thst way at Mrs. McMuriry's. The
guests quickly drifted into groups which
open and shut automatically to scquaint-
ances. One should go to reception only
after at least years course in elocu-
ton and study iu long distance speak
ing. A new beginner has no chance at
all. Nobody, unless a man gets in, ever
notices the babel, because everybody is
talking, nobody listens. Frequently,
though, when am telling Jack in the
evening about what Olive or Grace or
Rose told me "st the reception" and he
looks "smarty." the way men do when
the superiority OF the masculine is
brought by a contrast into their minds
begin to wonder how it is that have
heard 90 much. l know l talked as
fast as could all the time and then
did not get through with half bad to
say. All the came, things occur to me
afterwards that other people have said.
1t is like an orchestra and am playing
first fiddle, but when 1 think OF it
know the other parts too. Men have
not the sense. In a busy world it is
valuable one. Men take twice the time
that the duet style of conversation con
sumes. have wandered somewhat
from Mrs. McMurtry's reception, but /
wanted you to know that it was not en-
