Skeletons of Society Households.

To a certain extent, as people are thrown together day by day, from one season to another, do the different advantages and disadvantages each possesses become familiar to each other, personally and individually. It would certainly ill-smt anyone to make much of or to repeat anything which might atrike them as not being right, or even out of the general order of things, in the houses thrown open to “‘society” in this or any other town, But some things cannot be passed over, They are too plain to be seen—too injurious to the prospect of what is to be the fate of those coming into so- ciety in the near future—too harmful—too hard to hide, and too productive of unhap- }piness—to be lightly passed over. I iimagine it does not strike everyone, on go- ing into an assemblage of society people, that there is anything but happiness, gaiety and enjoyment among the laughing faces,

pleased persons present. It is hard to de- tect, under a smiling exterior, the hidden pain that is making life hard to bear. Ir is not always easy to perceive the watchful- ness that many exercise of those around them, lest others should imagine life were goimg wrong with them—and above ull, the evident distrust, patent to many, which our society people too often show of one another. But there is a cause for it all, and it and its effects are plain to be seen. Few homes—more. especially those ‘that comprise the society ones—are free from sométhing which renders them more or less unhappy; from a skeleton, more or less hideous, which stays in its own nook or corner, far from sight it may be in some houses, but neverthelees there, only waiting the opportunity to show itself. They are of many kinds, large and small, hard to find perhaps, and in some places hard to imagine to be there. But they are there— and none the less 82 because so well kept out of sight. In many cases they make life a heavy burden, and in some they only come to the front occasionally. These skeletons of society homes assume various forms, and so productive of harm are they,

going to speak of some of them. If by that means, even one should be forced tv come from its hiding place and leave it for ever vacant—the purpose® of this very faulty article will have been fulfilled.

as it were, an examplé to those moving in other classes. Oa this account I merely wish to spenk of these things as existent among our guciety people, for it is a pitiable fact, that if society men or women do what ig wrong, they are imitated in _their—hoa xample, © So. erefore, Gecause society

children need the mother’s care, and the husband and father goes elsewhere to enjoy himself. At home he leaves a tired weary woman, who would give often all she owns for one of the lover's glances, ons of the old time kisses, and in many, many cases, afew kind words. After that, what ? Un- happy homes, unfaithful husbands, heart- broken wives —and who is to answer for it ? Man, ‘‘the noblest handiwork of God; " man, made in His own image ; man, the idol women worship, and are s0 prone to consider their superior in every way. What a terrible fall some women’s idols get, when they come from their pedestal; and how often they prove themselves to be common, aye, even the most common clay. But you will tell ma such things do not happen here, your society men do not come under this head ; and I make answer that here in Charlottetown such men are not hard to be found, not among the middle classes, yet not among the lower ; but in the midst of your gentlemen (?); and the skeletons of unfaithfulness, of neglect well hidden, and of carelessness and unlove are anything but uncommcn. I am not trying to make matters out worse than they are, for it would be hard todo. Neitheram 1 going to class all men together. There are some model men and husbands in your fair city, but while they are here, the pernicious influence of the others spreads more quickly than their good ex- ample does, and it is time such things were spoken of. It is a false modesty that will not see 5 end for the sake of those coming into society these matters should be made better. | lL suppose you will tell me I am unjust—I lay all the blame on the men’s shoulders and pass the women over without. their share. I am going to do nothing of the kind, but before I give the society women their turn to be criticized, [ am going to say one thing more to the men, aad let them think itover. Very often, a woman gets, and apparently deserves the name of a flirt. Now OF all things on the face of this fair earth, is a married flirt to be despised—and even Charlottetown has some of them. She is a blot that is hard to be wiped out—a discredit to her sex and a heart-break to her husband. But are not in som? cases the husbands the cause of it? Have they perhaps not either so grossly neglected or slighted their wives that, out
