The lace wrap which best deserves to !
called stylish is shirred in deep T' Ok,
and falls in flat plaits concealing th'a''
even to the hem. It requires some ga]
and certain air of distinction to nna
ones enemies from seeing and Sl4'
that the garment looks like a dFSs u
gown, but when worn by a womant0 w..
figure it is adapted it is really very n
giant.

Wednesday night occurred the banquet
given by the Hugh de Paynes Command
cry to their guests the Knights Templars,
and though in lvanhoe, which is type Of
the age of chivalry, Rebecca is seldom far
from the scene ofaction, at the Knights ban
quet not 4ayde fair" was to be admitted !;
perhaps the large crates ofbottles that stood
near might explain why. Perhaps the
presence in the city of so many good wo-
men and true D who hope to bring men to
a higher standard than that found in the
wine cup, might also explain. However
this may be, the tables were certainly beau
tiful. Mr.. Louis Mivelez had prepared a
spread that was magnificent as whole, and
handsome indeed as to detail A large
table piece at the corner, representing
chalet, was first observed by the represen-
tative Of our JOURNAL. This table-piece
depicted a fenced enclosure, with white
deer standing in various places, chalet or
house in the center, with device of stags
heads and flowers about it; this was the
confectionery work of Mr.. Migelez. A
large stand further down contained a
gypsy stand and kettle, in white confec-
tionery, the porcelain kettle filled with
shrimp salad, the white dressing and cool,
green leaves ornamenting it, making a
pretty bit of color. A large center piece
depicted a pavilion under which lake re-
fected the white swans moving upon its
surface. While above the pavilion rose
towers and lace work of confectionery that
was indeed beautiful. The first mentioned
table piece had the French name of b9ufI
la Lyon. The swan piece, whose name
has escaped us. Then came a large cor
nucopia upon stand, and from this open
arm ofplenty' there were flowing bon-bons,
chocolates, and other corrections; while
white birds had alighted from the skillful
hands of the confectioner and were in
groups about the cornucopia. The objects
mentioned were among the hand8omest,
yet there were numerous other table-pieces
that had come from the confectioners skill
full hands, complete as works of art in his
line. But there is music heard, the
knights are advancing, ladies the back
ground. So the representative of The
LADIES' JOURNAL, with the friend who
had kindly gained her admittance, quietly
dissolved from view in the Knights Temp
banqueting Hall.
