The condition which she deplored ex-

Talk, as a thing by itself has been
superseded by Bridge, or by cards in
some form. If one does not play Bridge,

asked OF one woman.
Because she replied honestly. Il
have no time 10 play. l am too busy
to spend several afternoons a week at
cards, so, in order that may not be
tempted, I do not learn the game
Were she less busy she would learn.
AS she does not, she is seldom thought
Of when any Of her friends plan an after
noon together-for they wish to have
games OF cards. A few weeks ago a so
ciety woman called her up.
DO you and your husband play
Bridge?" she asked.

the reply.
"Oh, that is too bad" the society
woman said regretfully. 81 was plan
