opened a clothing store next day.

Society never forgave him for this insinuation.

But, say, isn't it immense the way the doings of these Society dubs
are chronicled in the Society papers?

In case you haven't noticed them I would like to put you wise to a
few:

Social Glints From the Summer Resorts

Among the Smart Setters now present at Saratoga is John J.
Sousebuilder, the well-known millionaire from Cincinnati. He is
here to follow the races but he seems to have an idea that the
horses live in the hotel bar-room, because that is where he does

steamship _Minnehaha_ last week to spend the season in the British
capital. The Schmitpickles will occupy the villa at No. 714
Cottagecheese Place, Blitheringham Park, near Speakeasy Towers, on
the Old Kent Road, Bayswater, across from Shoreditch--God save the
King!

Mercedes Cauliflower is summering at Narragansett Pier, and her
_fiance_, Mr. Peter Cuckoobird, is dancing attendance upon her. It
will be remembered that Mercedes is the daughter and heiress of
Jacob Cauliflower, the millionaire manufacturer of boneless tripe,
which has become quite a fad in Society since the Beef Trust got
chesty. Peter Cuckoobird is a rising you
