"There have been several -quiet but ele gant dinners during tho week, two or three delightful teas, and the usual lectures, tnuslcales. clubs and literary meetings with which oeonln wk to divert and Im prove themselves, morally and Intellectual ly, at this time of the year. But if you ask me how I like diversions of this na ture, I must tell you candidly that I find them wearine." said tho Bella of Three Seasons, and to cmnhaslze her assertion, ehe yawned most becomingly very like a sleepy child, tired out with play and longing to be cuddled In somebodies loving arms and rocked to kIpcd. I have always suspected her of practicing that yawn be Jore the glass, it Is so Henrietta Russell csque. Such perfect naturalness is only to be attained to through art. "No." ehe continued. "I.am glad Lent Is bo nearly gone. I am distinctly tired of mortifying the flesh. I secr like to do the thing I ought: It la not In my woman's nature to; And all those things that are forbid, you know. They are the very thlr.m I want to do. Good works and Intellectual pursuits do aot agree with me." "Indeed." I reDlled. "I should never have suspected It. You certainly have more color than you could boast of a month ago." "AH due to coif, rnv friend." "But you never olav." Ground for Simpleton. She blushed like anew blown rose. "No," ehe said; "that Is. I am trying' to 1 a .-a. and well, you know It Is delightful out there at the links. In tho fresh air and sun shine, with orchards blooming all about, and the the birds singing, and so on." I looked at hr Kharoly. This young woman Is not given to sentiment, and when an unsentimental maid begins to talk about bird songs and blossoms there Is something serious back of It something that Is very Hkelv to find expression later. In the form of on engagement ring. "I wish." sho said, half-petulantly, "that tome enterprising nernon who owns prop erty in tho iclnlty of the links would build some nice cottages. I know ever to many young couples who would move out there for the Summer, If they, could find anything In tho way of a root that would afford decent ehelter. You have no Idea how devoted the society people of this town are to golf." But I was more Interested at the mo Bent in something else, and In order to di vert my attenti" 'd me off. she plunged into the subject of the Chanty Ball. "Of course. I am going," she declared; "everybody is. It is a duty, an obligation. Besides I am having a new gown made specially for the occasion: I couldn't miss wearing it. However, there are to bo dozens of exquisite toilets worn for the first , time. One particularly effective costum will be a black grenadine, with a (lowered silk strl-jp. over lilac taffeta. The skirt, cut to curve away from a tabller front, falls lightly over a full pleating of the taffeta. The waist is all over black lace, lined with lilac silk. The long shoulders are outlined with broad bands of jet. and , the sleeves Mod at -.the elbows, and the whole is lightened and brightened and given a falrv-likA fffect by quantities of lilac chiffon." Easter Gowns. Speaking of new cowns. some of those that will make a fist appearance Easier Sunday are as beautiful as the heart ot woman could desire. One exquisitely simple dress Is a warm golden-brown foulard, with a white flower running vaguely over it. It has a white yoke and flchu of the foulard, fastened with a knot of golden-brown velvet, and it win be worn by one of the. most charmlnt young women in Portland. Another, a fawn - colored foulard, flowered with white crysantbemums. ! made with an accordion-pleated waist. The yoko Is of nhltn mirror velvet, dotted with pink and outlined with Russian lace, and the skirt is trimmed with a band of fawn colored velvet. A 'very handsome Easter gown Is of soft gauzy black, made ud over a brilliant nas turtium taffeta. The yoke 1 of black gath ered chiffon, and the flchu is caught down S,U , Zd- ,f. .W?' with bars of let: there Is a pointed Jcl girdle, which terminates In front, in a knot of chiffon, with long ends, and Is held In place by a let bar. A large hat of black chiffon accompanies and completes this effective toilet A striking gown which will be worn by Mrs. Thompson, of the Boston Lyric Opera Company, before leaving Portland, Is of black spangled net over black silk, and it is one of the most elegant things in its way ever made in this cltv. But enough of clothes, for the present However interesting they may be, the people who wear them are far more -eo. and a pretty toilet is only to be admired when it sets oft the attractions of a pretty woman. One of the most enioyable affairs of the week was the tallyho party given to Mrs. Isam White, by Mrs. Ad. Wolfe and Mrs. L N. Llnman. Thursday. The day was Tierfect, and th merrv drive.
