rEESOSAL ASP SOCIETY. Another quiet social week is recorded, tha lnll ;bciug broken only by a lawn fete or two, and a midsummer concert. It id not very "warm, so that cannot bo given as an excuse for not entertaining. While it is not customary to entertain during this eriod of the year, the principal reason for social quietness is that many are gone from one'i circle of friends whom the "would-be entertainer might like to have here in case she gave a party, luncheon or reception. All the gayety is reserved for the out-of-town people, but the fun and frolic anions them do not suit all who go. It is told of some ladies who thought they Tvoald like to go to a resort and have come of the "fun, that they provided themselves with all the parephernalia the several friends suggested, such as llannel dresses, heavy shoes, wide-brim hats and the like. One bright morning they set out for their fun." Those who enjoyed it so much did not mind hard beds, poor food, leaky boats, mosquitoes and the other diversions, but two ladies arrived just IWoro supper time, -with hearty appetites. Their tirst misery they experienced was a poor tea. Then mosquitoes carao to add discomfort to a hard bed. The partition between the rooms was so thin that the neighbors could hear every word every other neighbor would say. Tho ladies were not much rested in the morning, and every part of the programme forthe first day was a disappointment to them. When night came they wanted to

come home. After a whispered consultation they decided they would try and stand it for a week, because if they left at once they would have 60 many disagreeablo questions to answer. In exactly seven days they came home. To strangers they eay theywere pleaied. but to the inmates of their own homes they express themselves as disgusted with such a rough life, and believe that hereafter when tho want to go to a resort they will visit a place which has all the comforts of home and none of it3 responsibilities.
