AFTERNOON TEAS

Pleasant Hospitality That Is Enjoyed by
Every Body.
For several seasons past the custom
OF giving afternoon teas has been large
ly on the increase. 1t is very pleasant
hospitality and enjoyed very much.
One can go in street costumes. pass
a short time pleasantly and be at home
early enough for home duties and have
the evening at disposal for something
else.
The refreshments can be of the light
est kind, dispensed in a dainty way to
lend to the attractiveness of the occa-
sion.
In small places such custom could
be introduced without making them too
formal, each lady having her own day,
and in this way much pleasant socia-
bility could be extended and the con-
slant running in and out, which inter-
feres so much with many housekeepers'
plas, could be entirely done away with.
l can not conceive of any greater
annoyance than living in a neighbour
hood where one is liable to Interrupt
tons at either end of the house.
Every housekeeper needs certain
times to put her house in order, and to
be interrupted in it means often serious
disarrangement of the whole day.
If housekeeping is ones business It
needs attention, and no one can enjoy
a call when she is feeling something is
being done too much in the way of
cooking or left undone' in the way of
arranging.
How much nicer if the whole set of
ladies would organize a method of
campaign for the season, each decide
on her own day, and be ready for
friends at that time.-Louisvill Cour-
ier-Journal.

Can't Get Rid of His Nickel

About a year ago some wag polished
of nickel till it only resembled the
coin of the realm in size and color.
After it had dropped into the bottom
OF the bobtail car box the driver eyed
it suspiciously and, evidently thinking
the other side of the coin might be all
right, he gave the decisive pull and
let it pass. From that time to this the
company has been endeavoring to get
that nickel back on the rascalIy pub
lie. But. strange to say. every man
who tears open the little envelope con-
tanning it and its companion piece
always chucks the smooth nickel back
into the box. OF course no driver can
now complain because the coin always
comes out of the company's package.
During its first year of service it has
taken about 2,190 trips, and as it is
getting thinner and smoother all the
time, there is now no hope of its ever
escaping street car service, except
through the romantic charity OF some
kind deliverer, or through the final
dissolution Of the company's CORPORA.
