THE COMING OF WINTER DAYS Diveriisements to Supplant Those of the Lawn and Wildwood. OVER THE AUTUMN How (he Gay and Happy World Has Revolved During the Past Seven Days Within and With- out the City, Farewell to the Forest. Now that the mind lets go the recollestions o} the summer-time, with 1ts picnics ana outings under smiling skios, to contemplate the coming winter days, long-tried custom proclaims this to be the scason for advancing something new and delightful, to go hand in hand with dancing and with cards. To bo sure the pot is boiling, and the odor of tea pervades the air with a promise of somothing toothisome as a result of the amiable planuing over this social cup. “Ye doctors and ye brokers and ye 1i smile disdainfally at the mention of any good thing coming out of Nazareth, No one cun gainsay that teas and coffecs as insti tions are gossipy at best, and sometime drop into scandal. Kach can recall occasions where hearts have been broken and lives sundered by a carcless word over a cup of tea. Kach may also recall where grounds for divorce wora simply coffee grounds, and the consequent misery and disgrace wero s littlo considered in the general cup a8 would bo un extra lump of sugar. However, happily, this is rare. ‘They are oftencr sweet-natured than ill-natured, those gentle women with their white hands, soft cyes and perfumed laces, and it is to their cxchange of ideas, in the confidential terms brought about by a cup of tea that we owe many pleasant divertissements, The following is the pretty suggestion of a pretty woman: Why uot a dance under the guise of a pink domino party, adding by way of the mask a touch of mystery and surpriso to1hie delight of waxed fioors, music and the witchery of the waltz! A toilet as ravishing as the wayest butter- fly could desire would be hidden but for the moment under a domino where identity for the timo is lost, aud men ana women float in an atinosphere of pink uncertainty. Later, the unmasking with its consequent surprises, its awakening to the danger of hazarding general soft, speechies, even when ouc's fuce is covered, is certainly a depart- ure thut is not without its charn. The decorations of the rooms should be pink, with pink shades for the gas aud can- dles, pivk Howers o the yawning vases and on the table, where pink ices ana pink creams invite lip service, as many L France roses as the purse and taste will atlow There is no color o universally becomi as pink. It is the bright aichemy which, in instances, transmutes the muddiest com plexion into something approachiog beauty. It softens the eves, whitens the tectl, and in short, is a_hapoy combination of rouge, Re- camier creum and vice powder. So wuch for the general charity that prompts the carrying oav of this rose-coiored project, on the other hand, adunrably exe- cuted by a elever woman. ‘The vesult is something enchanting and stamps her taste as the pink of perfection. Bitter-sweet. A thought came into my head one day To leisurely speed the world away, ling, crab-like, with my pen, cying back the thoughts of men And women, if happily I could gauge Whut socioty likes for ¢ page — To keep them younger by just a weelk, And happier, too, for I planned to speak Of only pleasure the gayest and best And leave to forgetfulness all the rest; “T'o recount the dinners and lunches and balls, The theater partics in boxes and stalls, he changes from full to swimming dress When the women are covered more or less: ‘The outcome of Cupid’s wanton wiles, The chiurch, the gifts, the respective styles Of men and maidens who plight their trott Aund assume one name to distinguish both 1n short, the trivial gossipy things That result from the week as the phanix springs From the leaden ashes, and leaves no thought Wor themisery death in our lives has broughit. 1t held fur promise and all went well, For a time I mastered, a faivy spell, When suddenly came with a touch of fear, “TChough you cling to summer, the frost near. ch weels they read and swiling, bow To the last seven duys they are leaving now For something new, and as yet untried, A gay sort of wake for the week that died, A putting of candles at head and fee A crowning of flowers that are white and sweet— A pleasing mention when all is said Of the virtues of Time, that is iymg deaa.” A Moonhght Ride. As carly as when Xenophon tises were written on how to 8it one's horse properly and the custom, which was exclu- y military in the old feudal times, has through the successive, ages o profitable and vleasant diversion, In an e, the other day, I read that Rousseau “All nobility is derived from the horse.” Rather a sweeping statement this, and t the author who quoted it, cited in- stances ol the love of men for these noble animals which, 1 think, he might have car- ried further in proof of the I'renchiman’s argument. With Darius, Caligula and Nero, in ewch instance, the brute was nobler than the mastel Alexande whose horse Beucephalus,was as dear to him as s right arm, built i city over the animul's grave Roland, when taken by the Saraceus, kissed his horse tenderly and then put him to death ruther than have him fall into the hands of his encmies, Deeds of valor and the joust for fair la- dles' favor have rendered knight and horse inseparable, and the love of the one for the other has been the theme for poets’ song, At the present day there is still that love of man for tho horse, surpassing his power of affection for any other animal, but, with the rush and hurry, there is not the ' same tender solicitude, nor do our horsemen and horsewouen devole nearly 80 much atten- tion to their pose and dignity on horseback as did our ancestors, owing, 1 dare say, to this same rush and hurry that makes the horse rather the meaos of rapid trausit than a thingol relative beauty. Ridivg schools, where they are are popular and ' productive of g certain _inde pendent lived, trea- vailable, ace and @ fearlessnoss that im- proves the carringe wonderfully, Omaha is not favored with such advantages, conse- quently the young people who enjoy and profit by this exercise make the best of this deprivation by improving with practice, Th the lust, forinight they ofganized nev- eral informal riding parties for their mutual pleasure and benefit. ‘Tuesday evening a ‘goodlie companie’ went for & mooulight ride, returning to Miss Chambers for sup- per, un uppetizing outluy to which they did Hattering justic The rigers v Hitehcock, Miss tin, Miss Yost, Mi Mr. Wilbur, M Mr. Koenig aud Mr. John Patrick.
