SOCIETY.
AFTERNOON CHAT.
With the Girls on the Yacht Club
Piano.
The members of the Mutual Benefit
Society settled down upon the Yacht
Club piazza like a flock of white birds.
■'This Is the breezy corner, girls," said
Margaret, dragging her rocker to a
choice spot. “Do somebody ring. I’m
simply perishing of thirst.”
“Here comes Sam. Six lemonades,
Sam.”
"And plenty of ice, Sam.”
"And don't forget the strawberries,
Sam.”
“I understand,” said the blue-eyed
girl, taking off her hat, and pushing
back her yellow hair, “that the men
are getting terribly excited over our
society. A man came to see me last
night and begged me to tell him all
about it.
“What you say?” inquired the
others.
"Oh. I tried to look mysterious and
said it was nothing, and changed the
subject. I knew that would make him
more curious than ever.”
"My small brother John asked me at
dinner to-day If it were true that we
intended to do the proposing next year.
He said Fred told him so. Anna,” re
marked the brown-eyed girl. "I told
him we hadn't quite decided on such
extreme measures yet, but that the
society was still young."
The girls sipped their lemonade, and
laughed. 4
“I tell you what I have been thinking
would be a good idea," said Martha,
putting down her glass and extracting
a small red notebook from her bag.
“and that is to have a complaint book.
We will put down all the awful things
that happened to us during the winter,
and then well lay a plan of action.
Now you begin, Nell." she continued,
poising her pencil with a judicial air.
Nell, who had been persistently chas
ing a strawberry around the bottom of 1
her glass with two straws, looked up
at the interruption.
"H'm?” she murmured abstractedly. !
*‘l can t think of anything in such a
hurry. I suppose the worst of trials
is to want something you can't get.” ,
and she eyed the bent straws and the
obstinate berry ruefully.
"Oh. that’s too vague," objected Mar- !
tha. wrinkling her brow.
"Never mind, put it down to start
with." said the plump girl, generously ,
consoling her neighbor with one of her
own berries.
“Well, we’ll make it definite when
we come to the remedies,” said Mar
tha. as she began to write.
“Yes—a bid to the german, for In
stance.”
' Or for the theater.”
“Or somebody else’s escort.”
"Now, do let’s be serious," begged
Martha.
“Serious! I’d like to know if you
call it a joke to see the only man you
take an interest in carried off by some
other girl!" said Louise. "It's one of
the tragedies of life. Besides we've
been serious for an hour. Let's ad
journ and go over to the bowling alley,
and everybody can think of something
for next time.”
The motion was unanimously car
ried.

rather novel experience. Strolling

of helplessness by turning him over
and went back to the hotel to report
their find. Mr. Graham immediately
sent out to capture the animal, whose
weight was afterwards estimated to be
about 300 pounds. In the party that
made the find were Miss Nina Crane.

I,ACE TOQI'E AJiD EMBROIDERED COLLAR.
The photograph displays two of the

lars come under this head. Both are
useful adjuncts for the smartening of <
plainish toilettes, a good thing for those
who cannot afford gowns for every oc
casion to remember.
The toque is made upon a wire frame,
a stiff white gauze in fine shirrings
forming the flat crown. A scarf of
delicately striped gauze swathes this, |
knotting loosely at the back, where
clusters of small pink rosebuds, d'an- 1

THE FLOWING SLEEVE.
The very latest variety of sleeve has
so large a bell below the elbow that it
‘ hangs in a full pouch just above the
wristband. The bell form is accom
plished in various ways, one of which
is after the manner of the old-time
flowing sleeve, ending anywhere be
tween the wrist and just below the el
bow. This sort of sleeve is improved
by slashing it up at the back and open
ing the inside seam a few Inches. A
deep lace or plaited chiffon frill la
added inside, showing through the
openings. Elbow sleeves are very mod
ish for afternoon gowns of any thin
material, and lace mitts are worn with
thm. The little wristband is a fea
ture of many of the long thin sleeves,
and the fuller, more pouchy and trans
parent the sleeve the tighter and nar
rower the wristband Is. In the white
chiffon evening gowns you see a very
pielty elbow sleeve shirred down sev
eral rows st the top In tiny tucks from
which the fullness spreads out over the
elbow, gather'd Just below into an in- :
visible bsnd. over which it droop*. An- ’
other elbow sleeve is In three puffs,

BALLADE OF .11 NE WEDDINGS.
White blooms at every chancel rail,
White altars smiling everywhere;
The blessing of the priest and grail.
Kind wishes for the brave and fair
Along a path of little care;
Glad faces and a flower-strewn way,
Clear skies, the peace of June-time
air,— '
A June day for a wedding day.
In city, town and village dale
Deep organ voices rise and share
The children's treble hail, all hail.
In greeting to the happy fair;
While gladsome word and gentle
prayer
From hearts whose giving is to pray,
Like incense follow, here and there—
A June day for a wedding day.
The troth of true love shall avail
While zealous knights love’s tourneys
dare;
The word of Hymen shall not fail
While June hath benisons to spare.
With vows unnumbered to declare,
With countless brides in white array,
With ceaseless messages to bear, —
A June day for a wedding day.
ENVOY..
O glad days all! O feast days rare!
December joys and sweets of May!
June is a month without compare,—
A June day for a wedding day.
—Frank Walcott Hutt, in Puck.
