company is requested at the
PATRIARCHS' BALL,
to be given at Delmonico's rooms,


on Monday, December eighth,
from nine until two o'clock.
Then follow the names of the fifty distin-
guished Patriarchs.
The name of the one who issues the in
vitation and of those to whom it is sent is
filed in by hand, and the presentation
of the invitation at the door of Delmon-
ico's bathrooms is absolutely essential.
The passing of the camel through the eye
of cambria needle is mere bagatelle
compared to the feat of entering a
Patriarchs' bali without your ticket Of
admission. No matter how well known
you are you must be armed and equipped
with this potent passport-or else stay out.
Half the regulations won for belleship
and beauty have been achieved at these
balls. To have made a success of them is
a fair guarantee for success everywhere.
There can be no more favorable opportu-
nifty for introducing girl in society thar
they afford. And that this fact is keenly
appreciated is shown by the eager anxiety
and feverish desire everywhere manifested
to obtain invitations.
This season as usual will see three Patri-
archs' balls; on Dec. s, Jan. 5 and Feb. 9.

welcome the guests Being invited to
serve on this committee is considered a
most enviable distinction. The only lady
not wife or daughter of a member who
has ever thus officiated is Mrs. Paran Ste
vens, whom Mr.. Ward McAllister and a
great many others besides consider the
most fashionable woman in New York
At each separate ball this committee of
ladies makes suggestions as to special dec
orations and arrangements for the evening.
1t is the aim sod ambition of each trio to
surpass those who have gone before and to
excel those who may csme after. So sue
cessful has this friendly rivalry proved
that the record of the Patriarchs' balls,
from the initial one down to the last one
of the past season, shows them to have
been the greatest successes and the most
brilliant social events of each year. These
balls as they now stand confer the cachet
Of good form and desirabiity upon every
man or woman seen at them. 1t gives po-
sitionand reputation, it confers the mag
ical and forcible approval of the society,
which spells itself with capital S.
That the aims which the originators had
in view-namely, to make the balls the
most elegant, enjoyable and noteworthy of
each year have been rigidly adhered to is
shown by the fact that not once has
scandal been attached to them, not once
has an unsavory rumor or an obnoxious
report come to sully the record. Some

how their social star ascends, and how eff

social distinction. The uninitiated would
be amazed to know to what servile lengths
some high and mighty society folks will
go to obtain an invitation. They not only
strive to curry favor with the powers that
be, they even descend to bribery, some-
times to bulldozing, and perchance to
blackmail, to obtain the coveted paste
