IJOVK * ' Coiutance t'enlmort H'ooUon. triio sweetest notes nmonc the human heart strings Are dull with rust ; ( Tbo sweetest chords , adjusted by the nngols , Are clogged with dust ; Wo nlpo and pipe again our dreary music Utwn the self-same ntralni , While soUnds of crime , and ( ear , and desola tion , Coma barlr In sad refrains. On through the world wo go , nn nrmy march- I up , With listening cars , ICiich longing , sighing , for the heavenly music Ho never hears ; Each longing , sighing , for n word of comfort , A word of tender prnlso , A wora of love to cheer the endless Journey Ot earth's hard , busy days. ( They love us and wo know It ! this sufllccs For reason's shuro , AVhy should they pause to give that love ox- nresslon. "With goutlo carol Why .should they pause I But still our hearts nrn nulling With all the gnawing pain Of hungry love that longs to hoar the music , And longs and longs In vain. Wo love them nnd they know It.

The week of society has boon pretty dull. It has been marked only by a few card par lies , two or three luncheons , and several thcutur parties , with a pretty dancu at the garrison to glvo the dwellers In town n taste Of nrmy entertainment nnd hospitality. The quiet which prevails throughout the exclusive circles of society Is variously explained - plained , but the most plausible reason seems to bo the prevalence of lu grippe , wlileh has lnid countless victims among the loaders of the beautiful world. There Is hardly a well known Jamllv lu the " "city which has escaped the allllctlon , and Ihcro nro many still suffering from Its visita tion. People fool llttlo llko entertaining \vltli sickness in their homo , and until the innlmly disappears the quiet which nt pres ent provnlls'may bo expected to continue. The wedding of Miss Lunn Dundy nnd Mr. Henry Newman next Wednesday even- 4ti iv \ 1111 rrlimltm mntn tina nf flirt ti rttint * nlnnlnu cfmnco to put on tholr swell gowns and bring back memories of pro-Lenten galtlcs. But nt best thn remaining portion of the eoason will not bo brilliant , for already a number of the leaden are planning flights cither to Europe , to California or to the sea shore , and somehow an entertainment Is not nn entertainment without the presence of these grande dames who glvo color to recep tion , ball or dinner. Then the debutantes long for-thoinouting , and altogether the sea son promised to finish in a walk instead of a canter. The ono thing that Is talked of now , In fact the all-absorbing toulc , Is the after Knstor woddlug. At the fashionable church wedding the brldo no longer wean the con ventional whlto robe entrain , but in its stead n cloth gown , which Just escapes the ground , with wrap nnd bonnot. A hnndsomo costume tumo that will bo worn by nn April brldo Is of light gray broadcloth , trimmed with os trich feathers ; an Elizabethan capo lined with rose-pink plush , with largo do mcdicl collar , and hat to match. Another will wear n gown of grny. with Stanley capo lined with moss green with toque , surrounded with a wreath of tiny plnic rosebuds. Three sots of bridesmaid's hats are thus described : Ono sot , Intended for quite young girls , Is of whlto velvctin the tbroo-coruorod shnpo , edged with a narrow hand of white ostrich feathers and a downy mass of softly Jjyrllng tips all over the crowns , with two whlto wings smartly standing up from among tlinni nt the back. A second sot is of similar ehnpo , but of bright red , trimmed In tbo same wny with red ostrich plumage nnd two gray wings pooping out. This touch of color is tb correspond with the costumes , which nro 'fjray. A third sot Is of whlto felt , round nud with ) brimmed , with low crowns. Round the edge of the brim Is gold cord , and around the crown nro curled whlto ostrich feathers , tied together In front by a whlto velvet bow and gold cord. To these who are contemplating a visit to our English cousins , Incidentally "doing" the continent , the following hints for an outfit may not bo out of placo. Tbo follow ing things nro necessary : A light mnculn- tosh that will stand hot climates ; a dust clonk ; a traveling hood and plenty of wraps. TSirco hats for the steamer will not bo too inanv ; they soon get to look shabby. A black soft silk that will pack into a small compass and docs not easily cro.iso will bo useful as a change for dinner , with some pmtty silk blouses to vary It. A neat tailor- rnadu dross for the voyage. Jacket and ulster , and two or three cool dresses. Washing silks aio profcrrablo to cotton /ophyrs. . ns ( lamp docH not affect tholr appearance. Furs nro in the way , but n boa often proves useful. Foi'iiiland n couple of ball dresses for eve ning receptions , nlso ono for fetes and theaters ; u riding habit , a stylish silk dross , homespun , and two embroidered cambrics or zephyrs. A deal case , lined with tin , to con tain the best dresses ; n strong box for linen , boots , shoos , books , nnd odds nnd ends , and tuo regulation portmanteaus , ono with the cool , the ether with the warmer articles of apparel.

Thursday evening Young Men's ChristIan - Ian -nssoclatlon hall was crowded to Its utmost capacity by the parents and friends of the pupils participating in Prof. Todd's recital.

" The llttlo girl who was qulto n favorllo of Mine. Adcllna Pattl when she w.is hero last year , astonished her friends by the faultless man ner In which she played the comuosltion , and so great was the applause which followed that Gertrude responded by singing "Lovolv Angellno" in n sweet , childish wnv which went to the ho irts of the nudlcnco. Flowers followed her singing In great number nud for the rest of the evening sbo was a lioness , nil tbo compliments seemingly not having the least effect upon hoc. Miss Loulso Kelley played a Rubinstein number , the next selection on the programme being a Chopin mazurka op. 0 No. 2 by Miss Helen Mnrtln. The vniini ? Indv bus nn ox- quisitc touch nnd plavod the number with excellent skill aud appreciation of Its many possibilities. Miss Koto Preston followed with "Im promptu , " by Schulhoff.
