which have received favorable comment
from critical judges. Miss Florence
was present at her mother’s Wednesday
teas last year, and this is the season of
her formal introduction into society.
Two years ago Mrs. Leiter, of Chicago,
introduced the custom of bringing out
debutantes ut the beginning of a Wash
ington season. She presented her first
daughter then; this winter her second

Well, possibly your friend has to keep
the wolf from twice as. many doors as
he used to. That is often the case in
New York, I un told. It is quite often
the cas$, Mr. Dowd, that a prosperous

come down Pennsylvania avenue with
her sister. No sluggard stroller conld
keep up with them. Miss Violet wears
usually a plain cloth suit, a high English
walking hat. and a boa of Wlack lynx,
against which her glowing color shows
in strong relief. Let no one suppose
from this description that Miss Pannce-
foto is masculine; she is not; quite the
contrary. She is modest and sweet as
the dainty English blossom whose name
she bears.
8ir Julian and Lady Pauncefote will
not give a hall, aa has been reported.
They are at present giving a series of
Saturday dinners, and when the season
begins they will give the after dinner re
ceptions and small dances which were
so enjoyable a feature last season.
The great Patten house on Massachu
setts avenue was opened this season fdt
the first time since the death of Mrs.
Patten three years ago. The occasion
was the coming out of the youngest of
the three sisters.
Tbe Pattens are from California and
possess fabulous wealth; their house is a
treasury of art. The debutante is rather
tbe prettiest of the sisters, all of whom
are reserved—so much so that they are
thought by the Washington public to be
somewhat haughty.
The young Miss Patten has a great
fondness for dogs. While waiting upon
tbe wide veranda for the door to open
tbe dogs came all about me, giving the
mu>t hearty welcome they knew how to
give. There was a leonine .St. Bernard
and a sleek fox terrier; a brown eyed
collie and a slender greyhound; a mam
moth Newfoundland and a tiny black-
and-tan; there were two beautiful hunt
ers and a mottled coach dog. Snch an
army of dogs leaping upou one all at
once seems rather formidable, bnt they
are all good natored, which is fair proof
that their mistress is good natured too.
Miss Courtenay Walthall, daughter of
the senator from Mississippi, is said to
be the prettiest girl in Washington.
Whether she is or not she. is as pret
ty as any girl need be, and she is as
lovable as she is fair. Miss Courtenay is
a tiny girl, a pocket edition of Venns, and
not yet eighteen. She has eyes like a deer,
big and soft and
brown, and her
hair is brown
( I | with a dash of
and blue of day.” Miss Leiter has been
educated abroad and is accomplished
and graceful. She promises to be a so
cial -favorite. The Loiters live in the
Blaine mansion.
Miss Carroll, the daughter of the ex-
governor of Maryland, will be presented
here on her return from Europe, which
will probably be some time in January.
Miss Constance Lodge, the daughter
of Henry Cabot Lodge, the Massachu
setts member, is a demure little maiden
who quite gharmed her friends when
eho made her bow not long ago. Miss
Lodge is a Boston girL
Miss Rebecca Potts, who is one of the
local belles, made her debut recently at
her sister’s wedding. She served in the
capacity of hridemaid, and at the recep
tion following the ceremony was for
mally presented.
Miss Kitty Reed, the daughter of the
•’Czar," will appear this season at some
of her mother’s afternoon receptions, and
next year she will be introduced. Kitty
is only 15, bnt- she is well grown and
looks and appears much older. She has
learned early what there is in political
favor, while her father was speaker, and
before it was determined that he would
not remain in that position she was
made the recipient of overwhelming at
tention. After the election a change
became apparent, Everybody was as
kind as ever, but the effusiveness was
considerably toned down. Miss Kitty
has all of her father’s independence, and
her happiness does not depend npon so
ciety’s favor.
Another very young, young lady is
the daughter of Senator Pierce, of North
Dakota. Lie is not yet sixteen, but she,
too, will assist her mother this season.
The daughters of Senator Blackburn,
irf Kentucky, Misses Corinno and Lu
cille, will both be in society this winter.
They are typical southern beauties, tall
and slender, with clear ent faces and
dark eyes. Miss Corinne, the elder, has
dark huir, but Miss Lucille’s" tresses are
almost golden. They are both charm
ing girls, with winning, cordial man
ners. Everybody likes them. Senator
Blackburn lias been very badly hurt
His horse ran away and threw him.
Daring his confinement to the house his
daughters were very devoted. It is evi
dent that as yet the senator is the man
in whom they hre most interested.
Miss Everett, the only child of Mr.
and Mrs. Sidney Everett, will be intro
duced this vfinter. This young lady is a
striking beauty. She 1s very tall, with
dark, shining eyes and beautiful curling
hair Miss Everett has been abroad for

The past thirty days have been very
productive of interrogatories by mail for
this department, and I desire at this time
to express thanks for the interest shown
and the appetite for knowledge manifest
ed by these frequent calls for informa
tion npon subjects so widely and so dia
metrically differing in character, the
knowledge of which is yet so important
to'each writer in fitting himself or her
self for the great battle of life. I trust
that the somewhat bantering tone em

subjects will not deter future corre

“Some of these magazines wrote to
me by means of a job pres3 that they
liked my verse, but that it was not fitted
to their columns. I wrote back for them
to tell me how much the thing run over
or how short it was of a page, and 1
would trim her up so it would fit, but to
this 1 got no reply. I have decided from
having gotten brief and rather con- 1
ventional replies all around, together
with the mannscript which 1 sent, that
unless you have a pull as a poet on these
magazines you might as well go to solic
iting'orders for fruit trees in perdition
as to expect you can suit the morbid
taste of these people.
“1 write a great deal of verse, because
I have considerable leisure whilst herd

you might call the rump steak of

Your attitude, Mr. Harris, toward the
magazines is entirely unwarranted and
cannot be supported at alL While your
idea of obtaining a livelihood by herd
ing sheep and writing pieces for the
magazines in order to obtain social recog
nition shows? great business foresight,
yon must admit that some of yourveree
lacks merit, and your clubfooted meas

will excuse slang when I say that the
verse you send me can hardly hope to
get there, a:, least with both feet.

only in different moods and with dif
ferent environments. When he is going
to bis work in the street car or ferry all
the week he reads the paper, so that he
may intelligently meet with and com
pete with others woo read. Qp Sunday
he also wishes to know where his friends
on the stage or in politics or anywhere
else may be, and what they are doing.
There is a kind of general reception held
on Sunday morning through the papers,
tendered by the readers to every man
or Avbman of distinction in th6 world.
Yon can come there and shake hands
with them for five cents. ..
The magazine comes in at eventide
each thirty days with an air of elegant
deliberation. It comes with the gentle
eoothe which yon cannot get from the
dash and combat and hurrah and death
and destruction told by the types of the
daily paper. So yon most write simply j
with that idea in* view. Yonr highly t
artistic description of the island of Sa-
ed.'I advise yon to show her this piece.
Coming as it does from a litterateur and
man about town it is of great value.
C. M..' Springfield, Mass., writes:
“Dear Sir—Praying that you will not
throw this letter into the waste basket
before reading it, I will endeavor to give
you the reason for its being written. I
am a man of 40 years, married, and a
constant reader of -your work, and can
assure you a warm admirer of the same.
“But, Mr. Nye, 1 have a brother who
is no less so. Well, he is married for
the past six months aud is a very straight
forward business man, but last Sunday
while at church, seated in the same pew,
I felt shocked to have him commence
playing with his wife—taking her Bible
from her. changing rings and fooling
around generally to the constant annoy
ance of others—and the thonght at once
suggested to me to write yon, knowing
your remarkably peculiar way of writ
ing on such topics, and suggest that
if, when thinking of a subject to write
upon, you should adopt this, it would be
read with great interest by a great many,
and yon would confer a great favor upon
mo, and hundreds of mankind will call
you blessed.”
There can be nothing more reprehen
sible than the custom among frivolous
people of carrying the customs and eti
quette of the skating rink into the
sanctuary. It is far more consistent to
stay away from! church entirely and
read the Sunday paper on some pretext
or other than to whisper and play tag
through the litany. Of course young
people are more difficult to manage in
church, aud their spirits are more buoy
ant tbau those of more elderly people,
bo they should no. be so harshly dealt
with; but a grown man with a full head
of whiskers who will go to church and
whisper aud frolic through the service
or the sermon may gnu day, when it is
too late, torn on the fire alarm and get
no response.
People who have not respect enough
for whatever they are attending to keep
quiet aud listen, .or let others at' least,
do more to make me doubt and distrust
the wide open policy of CoL Ingersoll
than most anybody else.
There are only two kinds of more con
temptible people. One is the man Who

Commie Ill Faw, One Hundred and
Twenty-ninth street, writes: “What
should I do with callers who come just
os I am about to go calling myself? (3.)
What sort of man was Sitting Bull, per
sonally? Did you meet him while on the
frontier?”
A good way to cat short a disagreeable
call is to come down stairs with yonr
Bealskin sacque on. Some keep a winter
cloak or bonnet handy for such emer
gencies. and do first rate without .getting
a reputation for rudeness. It is very
painful, indeed, to havea string of callers
catch and hold you all through a pleas
ant afternoon, when yon had made calcu
lations on going out and making forty
or fifty calls, and feeling sore that with
the bright weather yon would find no
one at home. Sometimes it takes a
week in uncertain weather, with more or
less people at home, to cover the ground
you might on a pleasant afternoon go
oyer in two hours.

him to write in my Album in the sum
mer of 1876. I had a letter to him from
moa is so soft aud chastened that when
you strike your lyre with a discordant
clash and refer to the scand^ous cos
tume of the people there yon shock
every magazine writer from Maine to'
Mexico.
The only real good, original thing yon
sent me, Mr. Harris, was written by
Eugene Field.
Alonzo Dowd, of West St. Paul, writes:
“I, too, would like also to do business in
New York, hut am deterred by the ex
pense of living there. I can get twice as
much salary there as I can here, hut am

personally very gentle and courteous to
his friends, but a most disagreeable per
son to invite to yonr house to meet a
mixed company.

would never do so again. The great

luxuriant hair got in the mayonnaise

A dilapidated swell, who plainly had
more dignity than money, entered Deb
monico’s dining room a few evenings
ago, and after, scanning the menn cord
given hiijt by the pompous waiter, asked:
“Whatis your cheapest dish?*
“Cddftsh and cream, forty cents, sir,”
said the waiter. '

queried the hungry swell.

“Well, bring me the cream.” ordered
the stranger with a satisfied smile.—New
