day, and the florists are having quite run
on them. And aprODOs of violets, there was
an odd dinner given in New York the
other night. Everything that was on the
table excepting the flowers had been
brought over from England and cooked at
the club. The menus, also imported, had

this band-painted bunch Of violets, and

a most enjoyable one. Whist, as usual,
was the game, and while some played it in

most tempting nature were served and dis
cussed, after which an hour OF so was spent
pleasantly in conversation. Quite 8 num-
Der Of unmarried guests were present, and
they were given an opportunity Of seeing
how well the young married people en-
jOyed themselves.
