A Tninne SocIaI Function.

A feature of the last week Of social
life in Biddeford was the "burying" of
Ash Wednesday by the French people, a
custom peculiar to Canada, and this is
how it is done: The host and hostess of
the party busy themselves in frying
"fapiacks," and after a big stock has
been piled mp the party is seated at the
tables and there is a gastronomic contest
TO see who can eat the largest number of
these "hapjacks." The winner gets a
suitable prize, while the one who eats
the fewest becomes the clown Of the
party for the remainder of the evening,
and is obliged 10 submit TO any pranks
which the others may play and to do
everything ordered 10, no matter how
ridiculous. The biggest record ever
known there was made by a Frenchman,
now dead, who ate an even two dozen
good sized 'hapjacks,' with nothing tc
help them down but sugar.-Bangor

Among the new fabrics for household
decoration are the shadow silks de-
signed by the Society of Decorative Art
lists. They present exquisite color COM
binations Of softly shaded tints in indis-
tinct patterns on changeable back
grounds, and are most rich and artistic
in effect They are used for portieres,
curtains. mantel drapes, cushions and
spreads. In the form Of curtains they
are simply hung and are frequently made
up with no trimming except hem folded
up on the right side Of the silk itself,
which is so unlike on the two sides as To
have the effect Of band of entirely diff
ferent material when folded back upon
itself
In mantel covers the silk may be Dor
dered with fringe or have tassels only
at the corners. The scarf is draped but
once near one end. For table spreads,
if more than one width is required for
the spread, a length is split, overhanded
by the selvages, hemmed all around,
either plainly or with the hem turned
back on the right side across the ends,
and has tassels at the corners.-Carpet

Princess Marie.

The Duchess of Edinburgh's eldest
daughter, Princess Marie, is nearly of an
age now to make her first appearance at
a drawing room the daughters of the
royal family are never presented" they
simply attend" the drawing room with
the other members of the queens family,
though they do wear white presentation
dresses). Princess Marie is nearly seven
teen, and it is quite possible that she may
attend one of the drawing rooms this
season with her mother, though this is
not yet settled.
If she does, it is certain she will be an
object of great interest at court, and I'M
doubtedly will be much admired, as she
is the prettiest Of the queens grandchil-
dren. The Duke of Edinburgh's daugh-
tiers are all pretty girls; the third, Prin-
cess Alexandra, is the most Russian in
feature and most resembles her mother.

The lady who yields all power at Ha-
warden at present is little Miss Drew,
Mr.. Gladstone's two-year-old grand
child. A recent visitor To Hawarden
says: II never saw prettier sight than
when she ran through the open door
which divides the drawing room from
the Grand Old Mans sanctuary, and,
pulling mt the lapels of his dressing
gown, drew him imperiously away from
Homer or the Blue Book, or whatever
was engaging him. The first intima-
ton we had in the next room was a peal
of laughter Oh Mr.. Gladstone's part at
the obvious necessity of captivating to
that daring invasion, as musical and
hearty as ever came from human lips,
for his laugh is one Of his greatest at
fractions.
Presently the Grand Old Man and
the little chihl, separated by eighty
years of time, came hand in hand to-
gether into the drawing room. Mrs.
Gladstone runs to the piano and strikes
up lively waltz tune, and in a second
the two partners are dancing together,
the Grand Old Man putting into his
pirouettes lot of funny, old fashioned
little steps, learned of our great-grand-
mothers seventy-ive years ago, which
it was impossible to view without de-
light and applause, although so much
pathos mingled with comedy in the
touching scene. Pail Mall Gazette.

Mrs. Custer is clever story teller,
with the keen sense of humor, and the
cute, offhand way of making her points
seldom found in "A woman, or in a man,

ture on buffalo hunting at DIR. Corcoran's

When she referred 10 the tribulations Of
the Grand Duke Alexis ON his travels in

mayors and city councils at every turn,
as she did several times, the fair lee
turer seemed little surprised at the
sensation produced on her audience.
When finally she described the incur

enjoy himself with a party Of ladies, the
merriment Of her hearers reached its eli

cision TO have at least one court. The
queen herself would, il is said, be present
and receive for time, and then leave
the post of honor TO one Of her daughters

holding a court is considerable.
The queen does not actually stand for
the whole time, being supported by a
high chair that is concealed by her robes,
but yet the attitude is firing. Even
more strain, however, Is caused by the
incessant passage Of new figures robed
in bright colors and decked with fash
ing gems, before the eyes of the
sovereign. After short time this pro-
duces "A sensation of giddiness and great
fatigue. IL is for these reasons that the

veterate joker gave perhaps a hint 10
the bellies of the sort Of chaperons that
