Show Jfew fork Women's Clubs. Just now the particular social club which claims attention is one which has a proper rame. It is not enough that each of the adored English and American poets and philosophers must have a literary club named after him, but the poetesses have risen to that grandeur gran-deur in the minds of their sisters; hence there wll sLortly be created the Jean Ingelow, George Eliot, Hypatia, Elizabeth Eliza-beth Browning and Sappho clubs. At the poetic clubs poetry will be read, talked and sung, but whether the club women will dress like the spring poet has not yet been decided. The members mem-bers of the philosophic clubs will indulge in-dulge in gossip and study of the wise sort. Womt-n, it seems, must have clubs, and they can't live without fads, so they save themselves time and trouble trou-ble by getting up fad clubs. The poetic po-etic and philosophic clubs are the latest of this type. New York Correspondent. |
