attendant foliage. \ large wood tire,
built upon old-fsshioned and-irons, sent its
cheerful warmth throughout the rooms,

tered about, nothing but the presence of
the bright faced and elegantly robed guests
was needed to make up a picture Of beauty
and attractiveness. The refreshment tables

dining room and beautifully adorned with
pyramids of fruit, frosted silver and trans
