AFFAIRS OF SOCIETY
VISITING DAYS THIS SEASON OF
wELI-KNowN PEOPLE.
A Custom That Is GroyvinE-Move-
ments of Society Folks i'm and
Out of Town.

From October until June visiting days
are observed by those who wish to have
one day Of the week on which their friends
may find them at home 1t is not as yet
a general custom to have a day at home,
although there are quite q number who
have There are numerous reasons why
one should observe a day in the week for
callers 1t is not only that one may
be found at home, but there are economical
reasons particularly in regard to time.
When caller may be received at any time,
1t may mean that the visitor will make
her call at just a time when it is ncon-
venient to receive. It may be that some
special engagement is to be met; the caller
comes and it cannot be kept without ex
cuse to the caller. which is not always the
most graceful thing in the world to afford.
There are sensitive natures that regard
excuse for such a matter as uncompli
mentary to themselves and are lot inclined
to be as sweet tempered about it they
might. Those who have tried setting apart
a day have come to look upon the custom
with favor. For eight months in the year
this day is regarded For the remaining
four, none but calls between intimate
friends are supposed to be made. For the
convenience of those who wish to find
