Indeed, a number of them may be said to be society itself. So quite natur- ally, on the day of the annual reception at the home there is a press of carriages in front, and within the usually quiet draw- ing-room the frou frou of many silken skirts and the insinnating perfume that be- longs to society—a perfume composed of vio- let, orris root, rice powder, and mere hu-~ manity. f ‘These annual receptions had been held for more Years than the oldest inhabitant of the home could tell, for they were in vogue long before she became an inmate, and each year they grew in size. But the old ladies who might have considered the patranage bestowed upon them by the beneficiaries of the home as objectionable seemed rather to enjoy the novel sensation of playing hostess- es for a day, and always turned out in their best, and went through the forms of so- | | ciety to the best of theiruntutored ability. | riagesand wearing gowns of the latest modes | | and sparkling jewels and posed as_benefi- ciaries, it must be said that they were ex- tremely considerate of their charges, and | seldom did anything that would hurt even | the proudest nature knowingly. The old ladies who are the beneficiaries | of the ladies who come in the carriages are allowed—nay, expected—to be present on i these occasions. They are, in a. way, the | hostesses of the occasion. And if their pride rises at the affectionate patronage be- | | stowed upon them they must, with the po- liteness of hostesses, conceal that fact. Caroline Hardin had the distinction of being the oldest of this sheltered and priv- | i ileged community, where all were old. Itis | | not necessary to mention the exact record | of her years. Let it suffice that, superannu- ; | ated as she was, she was not yet old. | enough to be oblivious to custom and fash- jon. In fact, she had a keen desire to be in touch with the manners of her time. This | fact might not-have been discovered but for an_accident. ‘ The day of the annual reception arrived. | The rhythmical thunder of the carriages was | | heard on the street. The odor of coffee per- | meated everywhere. The old ladies were in ; @ great flutter, and, conscious of freshly | ' starched frills in their Sunday gowns, as- | | sumed expressions of conventionality and | hauteur suitable to the occasion. None was more pleasingly austere and com rect in her deportment than Caroline Har- ; din. Her thin, gray locks were plastered | down each side of her wrinkled brow. Her | neck ruffle was so stiff that it chafed her | chin. ‘She was propriety itself. But no | sooner had the ladies begun to arrive than a j suspicion fell upon her which soon became ‘a fearful certainty. At an afternoon recep- tion it was the custom to wear a bonnet. At first Caroline tried to hope that the | matter was arbitray, end that a lady might, Pcou ! if she chose, retaif her head covering. But as the parlors filled with bonneted guests the last remnant of hope perished, and, over- where she sat crouching over her steam ra- | from her faded old. eyes. Some one missed her after a time. “Where’s Mrs. Hardin gone?” was asked. but Mrs. Nelson Ward—one of the board— interposed, and went in search of her. She invitation to enter. The poor, old child sat feebly weeping, dence: “All of the ladies was a-wearing bonnets, saying excepting one,” she sobbed. “I never wanted to look pecooler when I was young, and T don’t want to look pecooler now.” “But you were a hostess,” urged Mrs. Ward. “This is your own home. It would not have been proper for you to have worn a bonnet.”, “T looked pecoolar!” moaned the old crea- | ture. “I'll not go back to be laughed at. ¥ caught some of the ladies laughing, and I won’t go back.” All endeavor to persuade her was fruit- less. She sat in her room and sighed the long afternoon away, while the cheerful hum of conversation arose to tantalize her lone- liness. The next day. Mrs. Ward called, bringing with her a bandbox. She sought Caroline’s room, “Caroline,” said she, “I have brought you a bonnet, and I hope it will be becoming.” Tt was not a plain and appropriate bonnet. Mrs. Ward did not believe in gratifying a heart’s desire in a plain and appropriate manner when poverty was the thing to set the standard. It wasa glorious bonnet, with glittering black stuff on it, and a fluff of amie lace and two bunches of purple vio- lets, As for Caroline Hardin, she looked at it with incredulous eyes. “Mine?” she gasped. “That mine?” “Let me tie it-on, Caroline. See, you must tie the bow a trifle at one side, so!” The old lady gazed at herself in the glass. | “T lock as if I had come in a carriage,” she commented, tearful with joy. And she eat with it on her head till bed time, and could with difficulty be induced to seek her couch. Now it was an unfortunate fact that Caro- fine Hardin never went out upon the street. Bhe was quite too lame and too bewildered and unfit. So the bonnet stood no chance of being used until the day of the annual recep- , tion should come around again. And, indeed, it was for that day only that Caroline Har- din desired it. She looked forward to that day with unspeakable anticipation. She got out the bonnet, laid it on the table before Just payeeot peers Pes nd Haplas.” is, her, and regarded it with enraptured eyes. She put it on her head , and sat solemnly be- fore the mirror, blinking and content. At last the day for the reception drew near. Once more the house underwent a cleaning extraordinary, and the frills of the best frocks were starched. ‘ But Caroline Hardin did not take the in- terest in it that might have been expected. She drooped and dozed almost continually, and at last took to her bed and staid there. A lethargy settled upon her. She slept, and her breathing was so heavy that it disturbed the nerves of the other old ladies. The day of the reception arrived. The roll of the carriages and the murmur of the voiees—those well-remembered sounds— penetrated through the mist that clouded poor Caroline’s brain. She sat up in bed. “Where is my bonnet?” she cried wildly. “The ladies have come!” : Some one brought her the bonnet. She fumbled with it stupidly, then with a child- ish laugh put it on her tumbled witch locks. She tried to speak again, but failed, and sank back speechless. A strange, hideous noise came in her throat. Then it ‘ Caroline Hardin wore her bonnet, but she no longer heard the roll of the carriages and the murmur of the voices. ‘ ~ Mrs Nelson, Ward helped to lay her in her “ In justice to the women who came in car- }§ ‘ LAP cae Ordinance No. 7 An Ordinance providing for the licensing ; of Drays, Hacks, Omnibuses, express wag- ons, baggage wagons and* coupes in the Village of Deer River.“County of Itasca and s State of Minnesota and providing penal- violation thereof.
