a MOTHER quiet week has passed,
n there being only a few events ,of
any Importance in the social world
Many OF the people who have been east
or west for the winter and the spring
months are returning, however, and the
city may De gayer for the first few
weeks of early summer than It has been
for some time. Only one wedding took
place during the week, although numer-
Gus matrimonial alliances are on for
next month The opening week viii,

at leisure for the warm weather. A
number Of people are already making
plans for the summer months and
things socially are in very unsettled
condition.
The club year was brought TO a close
with the annual meeting Of the Re
viewers, which was held last Monday
at the home of Mrs. Z. o. Lee. The
only topic for the afternoon was given
by Mrs. W. r Adams, and was a
thoUghtfully prepared paper on Mrs.
Humphrey Wards latest novel, Lady
Roses Daughter" The book was han
dleG in a most pleasing and skilful
manner. The review was prefaced with
a talk on Mrs. Ward and her works,
and the writer characterized this last
as by far the greatest work put forth
by the novelist. Numerous extracts
were read from the work. and the Opin-
ions Of reviewers quoted, but the most
enjoyable part Of the paper was that
from the pen Of the speaker. The book
is study Of heredity, and deals with
nv Questions in the 6anr1aT- life IF the
individual. AS such it is a strong, yet
not altogether a pleasing work. The
