tried her SO terribly.
"God knows what would happen if her sorrow

said. she must never be allowed TO talk

We've sat beside the ingle
And listened TO the songs
Which oft in memory mingle
With the music that belongs
To heart and home and childhood
With their blessings and their love,
The season of the wildwood
And the budding leaves above.
We've thought alone In sadness
OF the lines of Home, Sweet Home,
Full Of tenderness and gladness
To the wanderers who roam;
The words Of Payne were grateful
To our souls for many day
When foreign life was fatefuI
With its longings far away.
The voice of the dear singer
OF our own Home, Sweet Home,
In mind will fondly linger
Through all the years to como:
A poet of true feeling
Whose strains make mothers veep
When by the cradle kneeling
They rock their babes to sleepi
The song Of Payne L. blended
With our hresides' warmest dreama
With prayer on knees low-bended,
With tho patriots purest dreamc
And breathes soui-felt welcome
On our beloved shore
Where its accents a. Q BEN come
To the spirit evermore.

STYLES OF VISITING CARDS.
Chow about visiting cardsY"

"Oh, there has been no marked change in
them Of late. Strangers in Washington are apt
to be much struck with the fashion which per-
mits certain persons Of official prominence here
to put on their cards, instead of their names,
merely their titular designations. They think
1t seems quite too awfully SWELL and so it is,
in fact. Mr.. Reeds card reads now, of course,
simply, The Speaker In like manner it is
with The Vice President The Chief Justice
and all the secretaries of the Presidents cab
met. The President himself is not supposed to
have any visiting cards, because he and Mrs.
Harrison are exempt from the necessity of
making calls. The wives OF these dignitaries
are entitled to print plain Mrs. Norton Mrs.
Reed, Mrs. Blaine and so on on their cards.
The wife Of the chief justice is likewise Mrs.
Fuller but the wives of all the other justices
of the United States Supreme Court must have
their full names, as Mrs. Lucius Quintus
Curtius Lamar The commandant Of the navy
yard has his title only on his card. That is the
list OF Americans who are allowed such official
distinction. Members of the diplomatic corps
are also permitted it. For instance, an invita-
ton from the British legation would read: The
British minister and Lady Pauncefote request
the pleasure OF your company, &C. A plan
coming into use is for three or four ladies who
receive together to have their names printed
all on the same card. Rather q curious thing
here is a death notice card. the revival of an
old fashion, originally German which. with
wide border of black, the dead persons name
and the date Of his death, is sent around to
friends by mail"

The Company. realizing that the old plant. which
from 1882 until August last furnished the city with

Of the city, soon become inadequate, determined to

CARDS FOR SWELL DINNERS.
Some New Styles for This Season
Points About Other Cards.

'Fashion is showing tendency just now to
elaboration in dinner cards." said stationer
OF the mode to representative Of TIE STAR
yesterday. "Life-size orchids made Of paper
80 artistically that they look like real ones
almost are the latest thing, the name of the
guest being written across the middle of each.
Here are big roses, too, somewhat conven-
tionalized and fattened out, stamped from
paper for menus with single rose petals for
the names. II these latter are used the table
should be decorated With pink roses to match
real ones, Of course-and the same principle
would hold good with the orchid cards. A
coat-of-arms in colors and gold is very swell
device to have on ones dinner cards; il no
coat-of-arms has been inherited or secured by
purchase a monogram will do. But there
should be something. A fad at present is q
conundrum for each card to help start CONVEX
sation. The conundrum notion is managed in
very pretty way. The question is written
upon white satin ribbon tied to the card,
while in gilded English walnut, also attached,
is discovered, upon opening the shell, the
answer"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1890-02-01
SOME CONUNpRUMs.

The STAR man was not able to learn
any of the answers, because to open the nuts
would have been to spoil them, but some Of the
conundrums were: What does a man take
who has a mean wife?'' 'sWhat relation is q
door mat to q scraper2" "Who can speak all
languages?' 'What is that which is often
brought to table, seldom cut and never eaten?''
You can puzzle these out for yourself at your
leisure

THE QUOTATION CARDS

are perhaps adapted to less intellectual COM
pany, requiring, as they do, less thinking.
Here are few Of them: "In after dinner talk
across the walnuts and the wiue" "And there
fore let as be merry" 1.-THE merry guest the
host doth bless" Eat and drink as friends {"
swell met and well come"
"A very new thing" continued the stationer,
sis hand-carved dinner cards of the finest
bristol board cut with a knife so as to lift up
designs delicately representing leaves and
flowers nom the surface. Also parchment
cards with canoes stamped upon them are
rather ugly but fashionable novelties. Ii you
like you may have little paper flowers stuck
through the corner of each card and in case
your dinner be a pink one it will be highly
correct to have cards with pink edges, pink
lettering and pink monograms. Correspond
ingly with feasts of other colors. Menus, by
the way, are not used much now at dinner par
tles-they convey too distinct q suggestion of
the restaurant. The host only should have q
bill OF fare, SO that he may see that the BAN
