A 1ali ala l., -, ~:
recently accepted an invitation for a certain
evening, at a well-known residence The
night proved to be the worst of the season
northeast blizzard prevailing. Not one OF
the young women thought it prudent to ven
ture out OF doors, even with tempting ell
tertainment in view. So, as would naturally
happen ON such an evening, many of them
retired to bed quite early. But the hostess
with a dainty bill of fare prepared and liable
to spoil on her hands, did not propose to give
up thus easily. Hacks We're chartered and
the invited guests sent for; most of them
We're in bed, but they Were given time to ar
ray themselves in party attire. BY half-past
nine O'Clock nearly all We're assembled and
the party proved am even greater source Of
connected with it.
