IN LENTEN HOURS.
The world of Fashion Finds Lii

The World of Fashion Finds Life
Less Gay and stiIl Agreeable.
Instead of the usual entire absence
of gayety during the first few days
of Lent, there have been a few parties
small and informal, for the most part.
but still parties, and it is only with
the prospect for the coming week that
the real Lenten quiet begins to fall
upon society.
Ordinarily, the early days of the long
penitential season are the most lack
ing in social excitement, and after the
first fortnight there is slight resump-
ton of entertaining. but the fact that
the entire season has been remarkably
dull makes ii probable that, having
taken on a gayer aspect at its close,
there viii be diversion of an informal
sort during the forty days to come.
and until the warm weather nuts
more definite stop to entertaining than
even Ash Wednesday.
For, after all, the observance of Lent
by society generally is largely a mat
ter of fashion, since to only d certain
portion is it dictated by religious con-
viction. To the outsiders there is a
certain picturesqueness in the custom,
and welcome relief from social obli-
cations, that make it sufficiently in
teresting. That it has pleasures possi-
Bile at no other time during the year
is an agreeable compensation for the
pleasures which are forfeited, and
though the rare quiet Of the present
season makes these somewhat less con-
spicuous than usual they are still
agreeable enough to be thoroughly en-
joyed.
The round of fashionable calling is
over, and one now has time to drop in
informally upon the friends one loves
best to chat with, and to spend the
whole afternoon. if so inclined, without
thought of pressing social duties In
the evening there is the gathering of
the family circle around the open
library fire for quiet talk upon home
topics, with the delightful knowledge
that nobody is obliged to go anywhere,
even though the past obligation to do
so was of the pleasantest when ii ex-
listed. These are the evenings when a
man and a maid find time and oppor-
tunity for more intimate talk when
friendships are cemented, and ten
derer feelings blossom and flourish
speedily.
Days and evenings happy on the
whole. The sackeloth and ashes of the
ancents have become a figure of speech
for the offering of a contrite spirit,
and Lenten penitents to-day remem-
Der those good words, when you fast,
be not as the hypocrites, sad. But
thou, when thou fastest, anoint thy
head and wash thy face, that thou
appear not to men to fast"
