A very pretty arrangement for luncheon
party Of sixteen, saws the New York Sun. is
that OF illustrating the four seasons with
four small tables, each seating four people.
The first or spring table is all In delicate
shades Of green and white. Lilies Of the
valley and maiden hair fern in clear glass
vases stand on a center piece wrought with
catkins, and pale green ribbons lie along
the cloth from the center half way to the
corners, where they tie round lily Of the
valley corsage bouquets, the loops and sides
Of the bows falling with the cloth at the
corners nearly to the floor. The

intermingled, and the glossy green ivy
leaves form q mat around the central can
dslabra OF cut glasses as well with scarlet
silk shades. The only unpleasant feature Of
this style Of luncheon Is that sometimes a
tactless hostess seats the sensitive maid

A careful uptown mother assures me,
says Clara Belle in the New York Press,
that she HIS the greatest trouble In the
world to keep her daughters from smoking
an occasional cigarette; that she makes it a
point TO hunt through their bureau drawers
when they are out of the house, and to fall
like fell destroyer upon every tiny box of
these Turkish horrors which she can find.
She says that il Is perfectly useless to at
tempt to surprise them in tlagrante delicto,
for the servants are In their service rather
than in hers, and give them due warning
OF or entering the house. However, one
day last week she managed to
slip into the house without the
young ladies' being aware OF her
presence, and, stealing upstairs. her ear
caught sounds of revelry issuing from their
room. A country cousin was an a visit to
the house, and the girls were having what
is called in the argot of the day "htgh

ettesg' asked the careful uptown mother of
herself in a subdued whisper. At any rate
she resolved to open the door and walk in,
as she always did, in a calm and natural
manner. There was bit of scramble
but not the slightest odor of cigarette
smoke. The mother was delighted, and at
last felt satisfied that her daughters had
really abandoned the vile 4abit of smoking
a tiny cigarette occasionally. But some
way or other she was prompted to look out
OF one of the windows, and as she did so,
to her almost speechless surprise, she no

under the sash, which was tightly closed
down upon them.

Nothing, mamma; only amusing our
selves by shooting putty at cat on the
back fence. Charley left them here yester-
day." As that careful uptown mother
drew the putty-blowers out from under the
sash and by chance raise them to her face
she was Mortified to detect a strong odor of
tobacco about them. The truth flashed
upon her In an instant Thegirls had been

be done away with; that blondes are essen.

they cannot be driven away, says the
Ladies' Home Journal. He says that the
blonde can dress more effectively, and that
well-kept blonde has ten years advantage
In the point of youthful looks. You can
not expunge her in favor Of the brunette
even in literature, for in the novels turned
out during the past year there have been
1888 blondes to 50 brunettes.
