The lively interest in social matters
which devotees have manifested
throughout the fall was aceentuated
during the past week because of the
j. numerous weddings, notably the Har-
erzVance nuptials, which united two
the wealthiest and most prominent
Ifamilies in the city. Aside from the
marriages there were number OF
charming receptions and smaller en-
tertainments, the whole combining to
form one of the most delightful and one
of the liveliest weeks of the fall. There
is marked activity in musical circles,
and several concerts with participants
of more than ordinary prominence are
on the tapis. The clubs are not taking
that important part in the social round
which was anticipated, but many OF
them have deferred their musical meet
ings for variuos causes, and it is safe
assertion that when all are holding
their usual meetings their number will
be found to be larger than in any re-
cent year.

There is love I'm a mansion. OF course.
Though the sequefs quite often DIVORCE
There is love mid the flowers
In Eden-like bowers.
And love in Arcadia, perforce.
There is love on the beach and the down
There is love in the city and town.
There is love on the hiil,
There is love by the riil,
And there's love where the meadows are
brown.
There Is love in a cottage. tits said.
When two hearts fondly beating are wed
For love lends grace
To the lowliest place,
And hallows the roof overhead.
But for love that's as blind as bat,
OF necessity, thin as a slat
And conserving of grace
To economic space,
There is nothing like love in fiat!
