Claw-son. Claw-son. The elegant home at "7 Knst Fourth South was handsomely decorated and presented a scene which for beauty and jnyousuess has seldom been equalled in this city, Kxolics were placed in every corner where there was room for them while cut (lowers distributed with lavish profusion pro-fusion lliled the air with fragrance and gave the iiuitnalive picture its linishing colors. The bride and groom stood beneath a bell of flowers suspended in one of the bay windows, ami there received the congratulations of their friends. The bride's costume was of regina siik, en traine and liouueud with duehessu lace. Iter bridesmaids were Miss Nellie (iroesbeek. Miss Tcssie Clawson and Miss Alta Young. Miss (iros-beck (iros-beck was attired in lavender crepe de chine. Miss Clawson iu white crepe, and Miss Young in a China silk, als :i pure white. Wm. (Jroesbeck, jr., acted as groomsman. The continues of the ladies were rich in every instance and the event will go down iu the social history of Salt Lake as one the most briiiiatit that has evtir been witnessed here. A great number of munilieient presents were received by the happy couple, and these were displayed dis-played for the entertainment of the guests, being examined by those present pres-ent with great interest and with many exclamations of admiration. The groom presented his fair bride with a beautiful beauti-ful bracelet of diamonds and rubies, anil her parents gave her a splendid Steinway piano. The dining room scene eclipsed anything any-thing ever before attempted here. The supper was prepared by the popubr caterers, S. F. Ball & Co.. of 21 South Main street, and they outdid themselves in arranging the room and tiecorating tables. A striking feature of the tables ornamentation was the display of cut How ci s encased in crystal pyramids of ice. The erl'ect was beautiful in the extreme. 'The appointments of the table were superb in every particular, and a more attractive scene could uot Mri. Bhfiw. tli. WhLtlcr, N.-w York Iteeonler. Mrs. Alice Shaw, who whistled her way into the hearts of the "Four Hundred" Hun-dred" in New York, and whose social and financial success is said to havw been quite as pronounced in London as it was here, is to go to Constantinople Constanti-nople and give a series of entertainments entertain-ments there. She will give a special performance before the sultan aud his harem, and it will doubtless be a revelation reve-lation to tho followers of the prophet. If the members of his majesty's somewhat some-what numerous household should catch the infection which Mrs. Shaw's performances per-formances spread abroad in this city and undertake to organize whistling clubs, that august ruler will wisa that his love for music had not led him to introduce into the bosom of his family tiie bewitching unbeliever from tha western world. Good l ook aud Uuod Health, Now York Wor'.d. Any woman can ha handsome, sweet and attractive who has the time to take care of herself. Good looks and good health are but synonyms.

Such is the tyranny of fashion, as a matter of cold fact, in tho last decade of the nineteenth century, that the sensible sen-sible women of New York city who feel a disinclination to sweep the streets with their walking dresses are actually afraid to have their length reduced for fear of being pointed out as not only "being out of fashion" but as coming from "the country." There seems to be a sort of general conspiracy among the purveyors of feniinino attiro to au-force au-force this'edict absolutely. Nr I'sd ot FarUlnu I.ndlai, Foreign Letter. Parisian ladies have introduced a new social wrinkle which is that of dining w ith their husbands and brothers at the clubs. The dinners take place in private pri-vate parlors attached to the main sitting sit-ting rooms, and are the most select and desirable little feasts imaginable. At one of them, given recently in the famous fa-mous Hue Uoyal, the table was decked over w itu a canopy of tube roses, and the cloth concealed by a flood ot Russian Rus-sian violets, which filled the room with very intoxicating perfume.

If you have done much shoping you must have noticed that more men than w omen are employed at the dress goods counters, observes a Chicago Tribune shopper. It occurred to the writer to ask if there was any reason for this. L'hemanager replied, just as if he had been exoecling some one to ask the question. "There aro several reasons for it. Women do not like to take the say-so of their own sex on dress goods; men have better ideas of combination than women; men are more diplomatic in dealing with women than saleswomen saleswo-men are. A saleswoman can accomplish accom-plish more at some other counters coun-ters than men. But at the dress goods counter men make the best j employes.
