PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. A pleasant feature of social life prevahere, and probably in other places as well, is that which the ladies have of asktheir friends to call some special afterto meet any guest they may have visthem. No invitations are sent, but a lady asks any friends she may meet to come and call, and frequently asks that one to extend the invitation to some of her friends. There is supposed to be no formality to the calling, any more than there is for anyone who has a day to be at home. Frechocolate and wafers, or tea and cake, are served. It is a pleasant, informal way of introducing a guest to friends, and during the past week several such gatherhave occurred. The week has been unusually gay, notthe decidedly inclement weather, and from Monday till Saturday there has been something going on. The receptions by Mrs. J. R.
