“SUNDAY OF THE PALMS" Quietude in the Realms of Fashionable High Life. DOINGS OF A VERY ORDINARY WEEK Mary MeShane Entertains Mer Friends—Marriage in Swell Clrcles pects for & ) e Promised — Post Lent son. Mi Caremo has como and gone and today we enter the most solomn part of Lent, Holy weok. Noxt Sunday Easter and then pos sibly a short post-Lenten scuson boforo tho birds of briliant plumage take flight for other climes, to be gone until autumn Warns them that another season is at tiand. Chiefest among the events of the present week will bo the marriage of Miss Ollie Waeller, daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Charles I Weller, ana Mr. Olin Davenport Maunday Thursday evening at 5 o'clock at the Weller residence, 2102 Wirt straet, Kountze Place. Miss Weiler is ono of the pretty giris of the city, and is a great favorite aniong her frionds. Sbo is a triflo above the medium height, & blonde, with most beautiful blue oyes, largo and limpid. She is an interesting talker, and what is still more to the point is sensiblo to m degree upon questions affecting her sex. She will make ona of the handsome brides of tho season and Mr. Davenport is to bo congratulated at his success in that direc- tion. A large uumber of juvitations have been issued, and as tho Weller residenco 18 ono of thio show houses of Kountze place the wedding may be expected to bo the lead- ing ovent of the week. After Juno 1, the bride and groom will be at home at the Millard. e Tho Lonten season, which enters upon its Iast weck this morning, has thus far passed quietly but swiitly, and it is difficult to real- ize that this is the ‘‘Sunday of the Palms,” and that next Sunday is Eastor. Nover in tho memory of the oldest society man has thore been a quieter Lent than tho ove just closing. 1t has been positively forty days of complote rest, as the period 1s designed to be, oven the little teas, tbe infcrmal musicales followed by just a danco or two, have been conspicuous by their absence. ' There has been lots of theater going and several pe- tite suppers afterwards, out on the whole the women havo been true to their vows and have religiously observed tho period of sack- cloth. Whether there will bo a brightening of the quiet days is a question that only the immediate future can answer. From prosent indications 1t will oe & quict Easter aud still quicter post Lenten period. Easter noveltios abound, many of them of exquisite beauty. *“The troublo with Kaster trophies,” eaid & young woman selecting some the other day, ‘s that they are so monotonous in treatment. An egg shape and @ bow of ribbon, and thoro is your Enster de- sign.” This charge wouid have been modi- fied on further investigation. Easter flow- ers, rather than the usual typical oval, have been much utilized this spring, and exquisito porcelains and cryetals in many shupes be- sidos that of an cgg aro covered with beauti- ful desigus in trailing arbutus, Kaster lilies, and other flowers of the season. At tho high-class bonbon shops—for candy is really too plebeian a word for the wonder- ful confections which the modern artists in sugar produce—it was noticed that the con- ventional satin oggs wero conspicuous by their abseuco. Iggs of Sevres aud Dresden with broken tops permitting of treatment i relief most frequently hela the sweetments. A loveiy design was ihat of some pale pink porcelain of egg-shell tint and delicacy which rested in a nest of golden straw. The dinner eiven Edouard Remenyi, who by the way is to return to Omaha in May for a matinee concert, by Mr. and Mrs, Muente- fering Sunday ovening was one of the pleas- autest ovents of the season. The monu was dosignod particularly for the honored guest, whoisa famous gourmet, although a veg: otarian, the sketches by Mr. Muentefering being particulurly clover and artistic. Tnero was music, lots of it, and the guests privi- leged to broak broad with Remeayi enjoyed 8 treat which will bea blessed memory for yours. o How obtrusively Some women perfume themselves: and what a mistake it is. Thore should be only a sugeestion: of some- thing delicatoly sweet, and- it should always be tho same scent. ‘Thero are one cr two derived from lilies which aie perfectly de- licious but very evanescent. Celebrated Her Birthday.

The center table was very pret- tily decorated with flowers, suggestive of l‘xrllu{, and the birthday cake with nine can- dles, for theré was one to grow on, shone ro- slendantin it wealth of icing.
