However much the tendency to crowd the tcason Into a few weeks may bo regretted , thcro appears to ho no escaping It , and In deed It grows stronger year hy year. Nearly everybody , as the word goes , remains out of town uutll the last of October , nnd society rcmnlns In a comatose condition until tlio first of November. Then the round of enter tainments begin and by the middle of No vember the social world Is on lo grande tour , repaying the thousand and ono obligations " " ivhlcti every leader ot the smart world Incurs during the season , The early coining of Lent this year , how ever , has started the round of entertainments earlier than usual , nnd the Christmas tldo will reveal many tired souls who will ask themselves. "Is ft worth the candle ! " But . thcro U no letting up In the game ; It must bo played out , even If hearts grow weary and emiuled bodies long for some quiet spot far nwny from vanity fair. The theater was everybody's rendezvous during the latter part of the past wcelf , " The Cb-ritvUnll , " reminiscent of many delight ful nights nsone , attracting the four hundred M no other phiy of tlio ipiison. 'J'ho effect of the play was so Immediately remarked and already a number of the leaders are planning a charity ball on n srnlo of inngnlllccuce that lias not been equalled In the west. Kor two vears society has been content - . - Witli the balls Riven bv the Assembly and tho. ' Cotillion , but this year neither of the clubs will bo reorganized , If their patrons of former years arc to bo believed , and per consequence the old beaux , the dowagers , the young Bwells and the buds hope for something of a , } public character which will bo upon nn extended - ' tended scale , nnd n charity ball seems to bo the only thing lu sight. Chrysanthemums nro now very much In favor among swell women. They nro bril liant in color , and contribute a pleasing mid decoratlvu effect to a woman's costume. The yellow one * , which are very yellow Indeed , nro tlio most lugh'y ' prized. Some of the .j largo ones are priced ns tiigh as $1.00 each. 'The ' florists any , however , that the largest chrysanthemums in this country nro very Binnll compared witn the chrysanthemums in Japan , which oftentimes attain the size of an American sunflower. The chief objection to the use of chrysanthemums heretofore has been that the odor of them is not at all pleas ant. Yankee ingenuity , however , has been nt'work on the problem suggested by this ob jection , nnd some flower dealers have been able , through the use of chemicals aiipl ( xl directly to the growing plant , to achieve a newer which Is odorless , or almost so. It has been not unusual In the Jlowor trade , it is said , to mid perfume to flowers occasionally by dipping them in some fragrant essence , but the chrysanthemum case is the first case of flowers going through u process of dcodor- ization. In the Forum for October , Helen Ekln f Stnrrctt , in a thoughtful article entitled "Tho < i Future of Our. Daughters , " says : "Ono of the greatest foes to happy mnrriages Is the existence of the mercenary spirit on the part of the parents nud daughters. " Wo protest ( says the Commercial-Advertiser ) ngalnsttho . use of the word "mercenary" In this connec- / tion. Man Is by nature the bread-winner , \ while woman Is equally by nature the honio- miikor. By a sort of poetic justice , at any rate , a man to win her living for her Is every woman's right , as u woman to make a homo for him Is the right of every man. It is not Jalr to woman , therefore , to apply the term ( "mercenary" to that feminine instinct that Impels her to ncccpt a bread-winner ns a part ner for life , oven though she may lack that Intensity of emotion that n proposal of mar riage mouses In the breasts of the heroines of romance. There Is nn Irresistible tendency , or what amounts to the same thing , a ten dency rarely resisted , that impels lovers to marry just as soon as not to say before the man sees his way to supporting u wife , And in the vast majority of cases the estimates of the sighing couple nro totally untrustworthy. Even as tlio matter now stands , Imprudent > v marriages uio the rule. The man , blinded by > .liJ9 wishes , overestimates his future Income , underestimates his coming expenses. Thcro has boon nn epidemic of Kensing tons this week , every day during the past six having had ono or moro of these affairs , > -which should over bo "tho meeting ground or \ 'friends nnd all ngrecablo people1 ns Dr. Johnson characterized the afternoon tea. They admit of endless possibilities , and If the hostess bo ingenlus they can bo mailo lllto the oasis lu the uescrt , bright resting ' places where the unexpected is always upi > or- 'most. The introduction of a reader , a capital story teller , a clover pianist , a cnpablo singer , till tend to break the monotony of tlio after noon and pcoDlo go away refreshed , satisfied rwiththe world and themselves , delighted with the rare tact of the hostess whoso jiralses Is over after sung. A ITcnnlifiil Itcocptlnn. The week's ' round of social pleasures was very pleasantly Inaugurated Tuesday evenIng - Ing , the reception given by Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Dickey und Air. and Mrs. W.

Mrs. Uobcrt Purvis departed considerably 'rom ' the rules which nre supposed to govern Kensington teas by sending out Invitations reading simply from U until 5 o'clock Thurs day afternoon. It was a matter of specula tion with the invited guests whether they should tnko their fancy work or await tlio pleasure of the hostess upon their arrival. This latter idea prevailed to n very largo ex tent and right glad were the Indies that they bndn't burdened themselves with their fancy work , Mrs. Pun-is , who Is rt very charming liostoss , deserves the honor of having In augurated a new ordorof things nud nn order that will bo undoubtedly followedwith modi fications , of course , by future hostesses who aim at being different from their friends. The guests were invited to ballot , upon the most popular lady present and then ensued a scene that reminded ovary ono present much of n political scramble for nomination in n democratic county convention. Button holing was In order. Votes were openly bought and the methods of the politicians wore Indulged In , Promises ) of future enter tainments , luncheons , suppers , box parties at the theater , candy , und almost every delight In the calendar were offered for ballots. Ono lady objected to n democrat counting the votes and demanded that two republicans should bo placed on the canvassing board , ns that was the way , she said , her husband conducted things. Her suggestion was accepted , of course , and the result of the ballots showed that Mrs. Dr. Connor hud received a lurgo majority of. the votes cast. It was u jolly idea and conducted to'a very successful conclusion. Cards were played , but not with uuy degree of Interest , the election occupying the attention of the guests. The house , which Is very pleasantly lo cated on St. Mary's avcnuo and Twenty- fourth street , was prettily decorated witli chrysanthemums nnd roses , nnd the pleasant feature of the nftcrnoon being the presence of two bright little girls who carried trays filled with roses winch they presented to the guests.
