Looked; Then Leaped.
Bright-eyed Mary had a lov
Handsome, kind and true.
"Cut ehe said, "I must discover
What ia best to do." '
So slie vrent for sound advice
To aunts and cousins married twice.
"Don't." a!d Aunty Martha Teeters,
"Men are full of flaws;
Scolding round the hateful creetura
At the slightest cause.
Take your aunty's counsel, Mary,
Men are always 'con-ter-ary.' "
Then she wont to those still older.
Cousins Jane and Ruth.
Both agreed that aunty told her
Plain, unvarnished truth.
"Marriod women sigh and moan, dear;
You juet let the men alone, dear."
Pretty Mary stood and wondered
How these matrons nice.
Thinking thus, should all have blundered
Into marrying twice.
"Then." said she. "Thcye griefs and bear
em,
I'll take one myself, and ohare 'em."
What to Eat.
VANITY! ALL 1S-VANITY!
Music and Art, "With na Occasional
Dance, Tea or Luncheon, Fill
the Lenten Interval.
"It has long been the fashion to regard
smart sooiety as wholly given up to
the vanities of life," remarked the Belle
of Three Seasons, meditatively turning
the pages of a well-filled notebook, "but
I think tho most cynically Inclined would
be compelled to admit that we are not al
together frivolous, if he could look In
upon one of the audiences in the lecture
room at the Portland Library."
"The personality of the lecturer may
have something to do -Kith it," I said.
''She is so thoroughly in love with her
6ubject, so earnest and enthusiastic that
her listeners are Irresistibly borne along
upon the strong current of her own feel
ing." "Doubtless! Still, it must be perfectly
plain to the most casual observer that wo
are deeply and intelligently absorbed In
Art spell it with a capital, please and
oh, have you seen the Du Mond picture!
Almost sensational, is it not? I hardly
know what I think of it, 'but it is well
worth looking at. Don't you agree with
me?"
I did, and said as much. She put a&Ido
the notebook and leaned back among hex
pillows. I never saw anyone who could
lounge so gracefully, or who seemed to
get so much satisfaction out of a sofa
pillow. You know what Charles Dudley
Warner says about a woman's devotion
to sofa cushions, but in this case I am
Sure It is due simply to vaiilty. This
particular woman knows how becoming
those soft silken fabrics are, and how
perfectly tho neutral tints set off her ex
quisite complexion. "Vanity! but then
what woman, be she ever so plain, is
wholly without it?
GudsUl at the Slnrqnam.
"Next to art comes music," she contin
ued. "There was Gadski, at the Marquam
Thursday night. I never cared for "Wag
ner. Too much noise and not enough
melody! But I rather enjoyed the nov
elty of having It all explained by Mr.
Damrosch, and so simplified that even
a babe in arms could understand it. And
then everybody was there, and In their
best. Some of the gowns were beautiful.
I wore a new one a perfect" dream made
here in Portland, but swell enough to have
come straight from the other side. I must
show it to you." And we drifted off on
the fieaptldo of clothes, forgetting, for
the time, all about art and music.
The week, socially speaking, has been
tru.ly Lenten. A few teas, one or two in
formal luncheons and" a petite souper at
the Hotel Portland, after tho theater,
now and then, just about covers It all.
The social which the Unitarians hold
one Wednesday in every month was pre
faced last week with a lecture by Miss
Farnham on "The Transvaal." These
charming affairs, which were origlnallj
designed merely to promote acquaintance
among the members of the church, have
grown to be regarded with such favor that
an invitation to one of them is greatly
coveted.
The event of the week among the young
er members of society was the Sans Sou
ci Club dance, at Parsons Hall. Thurs
day evoning. There will be but two more
of these delightful parties given this sea
son. The reception committee for this
occasion consisted of T. Brasel, A. Von
dor Worth, who is president of the club;
V- B. Kaiser, H. Eilers. P.. Scott and E.
Vlnce. The membership is limited to 20,
and they meet every third week in the
month and dance till the clock strikes 12,
a la Cinderella.
Youth Is always attractive and these
young people seem to know how to make
the most of it. Pretty gowns and pretty
girls, graceful dancers who make one in
love with motion, sweet music and sweet
er la'ughter all these go to prove that life
z worth the living when one is young and
"sans-souci."
"Wednesday Algrht CIhIj.
'The Wednesday Night. Club danced at
3urk"hard's Hall this week as usual, and
the Fleur de Lis gave another enjoyable
party at the same place Thursday even
ing. ,
There are many things planned to come
off after Easter. There is, for example,
the Charity ball, the arrangements for
which are already made, and the dog
show, which is to be something really
worth while. To 5ay nothing of a fanay
dress ball that will be given, but some
body has Just told me that it Is bad taste
to anticipate. Besides, It Is somewhat
difficult to keep one's mind fixed upon the
vanities of life with all the flags In town
floating at half-mast. AGATHA.
