 Kittens and puppies and cats and

SOCIEE r.

They were school girls, and evidently
 delighted to see each other. There were exclamations of "Graee!" "Why, Edy!" and they ran towards each other
 impulSiYely. The passerS by nerved themselves for the usual feminine dem onstration. But the two merely shook
 hands like good comrades and went on together up the avenue. A general glance of appreciation followed them. The innovation was recognized with smile of relief.
 If the gushing feminine embrace is really being ostraciZed, it will be one of the wisest developments of this gen eration If it were always the direct outcome of spontaneous affection, one would have nothing against it; but it is half the time an absurd little sham that each forces herself into purely for politeness' sake. Many a woman with a sharp repugnance to being kissed has undergone endless martyrdom for fear Of hurting the feelings of othars-who, perhaps, liked the custom as little as herself.
 By some this conventio salute has been reduced to a momentary pressure of the cheeks-an affected little ges- ture intended to convey the idea that one approved of the sentiment but not
 
 looking on, it is a foolish compromise. A sincere handShake-nOt a futile fiE- ger pinch in mid air-wouId express far more cordiality.
 A certain cowardice often keeps wo- men clinging to a custom which they inwardly dislike. They feel that somc- thing is expected, and that knowledge has a fatal power over feminine con- duct. But they are certainly getting the better of it in this instance, if two school girls can rush together after an absence and simply shake hands. Uni Versal demonstration belonged to the age of clinging helplessness. With the new self reliance has come a new re- serve, and the change is not unwel- come.
 One of the most invaluable persons in the fashionable world is the middle aged society man, who more complete ly fills the niche, perhaps, than any other component parts of the social structure-in fact, it might almost be said it would crumble without him, 70 important is the prop afforded by his services. In a house party his worth cannot be estimated. Always agree ] able to look at and to talk to, he anal 1 gamateS the various elements, so to ! speak, and causes many an entertain ment to be a success which might oth- | erwise be a failure. As a friend of the i family and constant visitor, he is fla miliar with the house and grounds we'll | enough to pilot the other guests about ! and to do the honors, and as an "unat- tacned" single man he is always ready i to be polite to tinid girls or uninterest- ing matrons. After dinner he takes l. the bother of entertaining the younger men eff the hands O. his hoS. an1 wh -n they all return to the drawing room he | talks or dances with all the wallfow- CTS. In town he is equally useful and agreeable. At dinner parties he is al- ways chatty and entertaining whoever may be his neighbors, and he does not i despise afternoon teas, and is ever available for a mixed luncheon.
