Mrs. Mccarthy and Mrs. Eeder. Fol
tasteful decoration and endless variety
of valuable and attractive articles, thi.
table is one Of the prettiest IN the hall
The most interesting object We noticed
and one which evidently delighted mos
J the hearts Of the little ones grouped
around TO catch a view Of il, was d
romantic looking loghouse with farm at
t3ehed. 1t is lighted up within, showing
a eozy-lOOking room with chairs, tables,
sofas, etc. In the foreground, beside
tie avenue that leads to the door, IS
clear lake on the bosom OF which nestles
anoble looking swan. In the distance,
the sheep, the deer and goats are oroWs-
ing over the pasture fields, While at
the doorstep is an old grandmother at
her knitting with the children playing
round Der. 1t is the prettiest ornament
we have ever seen. Looking over the
table we noticed 8 splendid toilet
set worth twenty-five dollars; a
handsome bible, magniicenUy bound,
an gilt, q silver csId-stsnd, mammoth
cakes of every variety, a baby cloak
