WHAT'S DOING IN SOCIETY.


On Monday afternoon the WomarNY
Club had charming addition to thdy
program.
The years study in Italy and jus
at present the club is lingering
Venice Miss Bryce was in Veni,
last winter and she kindly consente$
to give a talk which she did in very
happy and informal way, bringing
Venice nearer to her hearers than
could be done by the second hand
method of books, that no matter how
good, fail to have the human touch. !.
Miss Bryce had a number of pictures
of Venice that were very interesting,
also. Three papers on Venice, all of
much interest were read by Mesdames
Nash, Pierce and Plimpton. Mrs. Mar
tin sang most ckarmingly and respond
ed to a hearty encore. Mrs. j. B.
Romans gave one of her readings and
captivated her hearers as usual.
At the close of their fine program,
Mesdames Criswell and Young, who
were the committee for the afternoon,
served coffee and other light refresh
ments, including some of Mrs. Girls
wells famous chopped nut doughnuts.
Mesdames Curtis and Smith of Chi
ago, Davis and Smith, of Ute, were
among the out of town guests. The
club had number of invited guests
to whom the afternoon in Venice was
a great pleasure.
On Friday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
SERVER gave dinner Complimentary
to Mrs. Curtis of Warsaw, Wis, and
Mrs Smith Of Chicago, the daughters
of Mrs H. S. Gulick. The dinner, with
such delightful hosts and guests could
not but be a pleasant one, and both
the dinner and visit were greatly en-
joyed.
The library has again been remem-
bered by its loving friends. Mrs. r.
A. Romans presented the children's
room with stereoscope and large
number of views Mrs. Conner and
Mr.. C. C. Tabor have also given views.
The children enjoy the pictures very
niue Mrs. Chas. Voss has presented
thu 1took shelves with six German
books and we are sure they will be
read and enjoyed.
| On Friday the whist club members
had very pleasant meeting with Mrs.
Morgan, spending the evening in much
enjoyment to which Mrs. Morgan s re-
freshments added not little.
The S. S. C. will hold business
meeting Tuesday night at Z p. m.
sharp. AS all members are urged to
attend and discuss plans for a guest
night, to celebrate the first birthday
of the club.
The china sale of Miss Ada Sewell
was a very creditable one to this
charming and accomplished young art
list. Miss Sewell's work is excellent
and she shows much earnestness in
improving herself by study. Miss
Sewell's work always meets ffateaTing
sales and this year she has had 4 lic;i1i-
Der of late orders that have kept her
very busy. Miss Ada is one of our
prettiest and best and we wish her ell
the success she so richly deserves.
Mrs. S. G. Wright has been at home
to her friends all this week with her

following is large and enthusiastic.

Dress for Lovely Woman.

One of the loveliest dresses is of
satiny liberty silk in delicate pink.
And it might well serve as a costume
for bal masque if the fair wearer
had a floral headdress, though 1t Is
not at all loud and none too snowy for
any evening wear. This dress Is
flounced affair, the skirt being in triple
fiounce effect. Each flounce is cut out
in petal shape around the edge and
between these petals another petal of
palest pink chiffon is introduced. The
petals are edged with tiny pink sequins
and the veinings are done in glisten-
ing silks. Three shaped fiounces form
the elbow sleeves and the pretty
blouse bodice is likewise formed of
three overlapping sections, those like
the skirt fiounces being edged in this
petal effect. 1t would be difficult to
design a lovelier dress. For fair one
too short to wear the triple skirt effect
one hounce could be trimmed deeply
and be as pretty, without detracting
from the height.

INSECT USED HER BRAINS.
Wasp Made Receptacle for Egg and
Provided Provisions.

The deliberate use of tool by
little sand wasp might well be sup
posed to indicate reasoning power. A
wellknown naturalist, DR.. Peckham,
watched a wasp dig hole in the
earth and deposit therein an egg, to
gether with a spider. which she had
stung into paralysis, to feed the grub
which should be hatched in due course.
Then she filled up the hole with sand
or earth. and iammed 1t down with
her head.
when at last the filling was level
with the ground, she brought guam
tity of fine grains of dirt to the spot.
picked up small pebble in her man
dibles, and used it as a hammer in
strokes. thus making this spot as hard
and firm as the surrounding surface.
Before we could recover from our as
tonishment at this performance. she
had dropped her stone and was
bringing more earth. In moment
we saw her pick up the pebble, and
again pound the earth into place with
1t. Once more the whole process was

New Ideas in Ornaments

Leather bags with handsome silver
carvings are very neat, providing the
leather match the gown. One can get
the most beautiful colored leather in
gray and purple, lavender, green
ivory colored, brown and tan. Indeed
one can match almost any gown with
bag. The mountings can be carved
silver and if well executed, they can
be transferred from one bag to an
other. The cost is little, and it is
worth while to transfer lne clasp.
To own a dozen wrist bags is no
unusual thing nowadays. Many WON
en- own a bag for each coat and for
each gown. and some go so far as to
order bag to match each hat Thus
the bags count up into the dozens.
There are little trunks that come

ure. 1t brings out the waist line, and
its folds across the bust may easily be
arranged so as to greatly increase the
apparent size of the fat figure. whilc
by using little material and drawing
it close the exuberant figure can be
held down firmly and appear of the
perfect middle size.
The average American figures lack
both bust and hips. but the fashions
of to-day are kind toward those de-
ficiencles, and the plated, shirred. and
yoked skirts can easily be made to
render the figure apparently fuller at
the hips, and these. together with the
draped bodices, are vastly improving
the appearance of many women.

A PLEA TO PARENTS.
Picture of Young Girls Abroad at
Nioht Without Chaperon.

Fathers and Mothers: II you have
a young daughter this picture-which
is no fancy one-is for you. says a
writer in the Syracuse Journal. 1t is
long after curfew. Ogling men lean
on sidewalk ratings and wait at
street corners. There they come
down the street arm in arm-two
young girls with fresh, rosy faces.
Abundant braids of hair fall down
their backs. Natty little gowns come
to the shoetops. They are school
girls and in their early teens.
There is no chaperon and no escort.
The girls are out alone and the hour
is rather late. Young men and the
girls are strangers to one another,
and yet there is some sort of free
masonry between them. The glances
of the young men are bold. The eyes
of the girls are not timid as they turn
them backward with the hint of a
smile. Flippant words are exchanged.
But what can one do? II their nat
ural guardians are not there to pro
