Guests AND POSSESSES
Diuner-GivIng and the Entertain
of Guests.

Diuner-Gfving and the Entertainment
of Guests.
The second of the essays presented by
the Elinira College Council Of Etiquette
treats the topic OF The Hostess and Her
Guest.' The following is a brief sum-
mary of the essay:
Upon their arrival guests should be met
at the station by their hostess or some
member Of her family, and upon their
departure equal attention should be be-
slowed In winter the rooms for their
occupancy should be thoroughly aired
and warmed, as we'll as plenty of closet
room provided, together with hot water
and other necessities; while IN summer 1t
is dainty compliment TO place flowers
on the dressing table.
The hostess should try to remember her
guests tastes, but never should allow
him to see that she is making a sacrifice
for him, even though such be necessary.
The continuous round OF entertainment
that some people think must be provided
is as burdensom to the guest as TO the
host. Let your house always be as 1t
always is, and make the stranger one of
the family. When you are invited to ball
or reception it is permissible to ask if
you may bring your guest, but III the
case of a luncheon or dinner this would
not be right; so, of course, you must not
think OF going yourself.
Points for the guest.-Do not stay too
long. 1t is customary to specify the
length OF visit in the invitation, but ii
this has not been done, one should not
stay over d week. Do not depend too
much upon your hostess for entertain
ment. Every housek eeper has certain
household duties, and some time should
be left free to her, when the guest can
amuse himself. Stanley's highest praise
= , II
ity was: ''Our host and hostess let us do
whatever we wished" However, be
careful always to be punctual at meals,
aud do not keep the family I'D at night
until they are weary, for they will ex-
pect you to retire first.
Upon the last day, the hostess polite
remark of regret that the guest must go
so soon is merely q compliment, and
should never be taken as an invitation 10
stay. Always write to your hostess soon
after leaving, and express your apprecia-
ton of the pleasure she has given you.
Dinners-Great forethought is necessary
in placing people at the table SO that MEM
bers of the same family may not sit to-
gether, or people likely TO be uncongenial.
The host seats at his right hand the lady
of the highest rank, or the one IN whose
honor the dinner is given, while the man
of highest rank sits at the left hand Of the
DOSleSss 1He OtHei IlSA s4U dt tio 1oIl-
hand side of the ladies whom they have
brought out.
A good conversationalist is the boon oi
the dinner-giver, for by wit and natural
tact the poorest dinner can be made de-
lightftli. The ladies should always wear
gloves, taking them of, of course, al
table, but it is better form for the men
not to wear them. Invitations to dinner
should be answered at once, and after
ward a formal call should be made within
ten days.
The charming and successful hostess is
the one who is cordial, natural and cheer
tul, and who has, above all things, what
the French call ''savoir faire."

At the Battle of Mobile.

The last few moments the Hartford was
under fire of the forts, batteries and gun
boats, was the warmest work the old flag
ship had ever encountered Every man
on her broad deck appeared to be in mo-
ton, and SO intent upon his particular
line of duty that scarcely a word was
spoken. The carefully trained guns
seemed imbued with lie as they sped in
and out of the spacious ports. The hur-
ried run Of powder boys and shellmen
from the magazines at the StairWays and
fire matches, with supplies for their guns,
gave an air of apparent confusion on the
deck. The roar OF the heavy guns was
so great that it was impossible to dlstin-
guish the tones of human voices. Occa-
siOnally, the peculiar scream of shot
passing in close proximity, caught the at
tention OF the men, while the bursting of
shell and quick swapping crash of flying
timber hummed through the air. The
cut, frayed rigging swayed wildly to and
fro from aloft, and the men, with faces
smeared and begrimed with powder,
toiled steadily on, peering through the
thick pail of battle, watching for the flash
and glare of the enemy's guns, and firing
in that direction. one guns crew was
entirely swept away, remaining silent
unrilT lTemanned by men from other por-
tions of the ship. A sailor, fearfully
W6unded, turned and writhed in the cot
used for lowering the wounded to the
surgeons quarters. He fell distance of
thirty feet and his sufferings were at an
end Bulwarks. nnasts, ropes, guns and
carriages were all more or less smeared
with blood and pieces of the human
body, over which there was no time to
ponaer. think, or even grow pale. Captain
DrayLon and Lieutenant Watson were on
the quarterback, close observers of all
that was passing. and whether fighting
or conyersing, W atson's face was seldom
seen without a pleasant smile, feature
peculiar to hinl.-Blue and Gray.

son with the use of the telephone in Eu-
ropean countries will show how much
more rapidly a useful invention is taken
up in this country than abroad. IL 1882
all of France had only l46 telephone eX-
changes and 10000 subscribers, or less
than half the number III New England.
In all Great Britain there are $4,000 SUBJ
scribers, or only one-tifth as many as in
the United States. Germany has about
5000 subscribers and Italy some $1,000.
The total number OF subscribers IN all
Europe is not more than 50 per cent. OF
the number in the United States alone.
The financial success of the telephone
has been as great as its adaptabIllty TO
the wants of the public, The company
that controls the telephone in this coun-
try was organized n 1880 Wltha capital OF
S6,500,000, which had increased last year
to SIG, ,0000 900. The dividends paid during
that time range from SlTS,00O in 1890 and
1881 TO >, ,33i 800 III 1898, or a total OF divl-
dendS i'll fourteen years OF s23, ,l06.56 and
a yearly average of 81 500, ,435. Such an
enormous return from the creation OF
one mans mind rivals the glories OF the
achievements of Aladdin's Lamp. But
while the American people are far ahead
OF the Europeans in the use OF the tele-
phone, the latter appear 10 have beaten
us in cheapness. The annual rental OF
an instrument at place OF business In
Philadelphia IS Sl40. In Boston the same
service costs Sl56 to $50.
But in Switzerland, for instance, the
use of telephone can be had for $40 a
year. 1t is probable, however, that in
this case the talker and the listener must
go to the general stations and take their
turn instead of having private instru-
ment connected with general exchange,
an inconvenience that an American
would not submit to. The expirations
of patents, improved methods and the
general cheapening of the whole process
must in the near future reduce the cost of
this useful service and bring it into more
general use. How complicated the tele-
phone system will then become can be
estimated from the tact that on one
switchboard in single Boston station
there are 100000 connections. -Philadel-

NEW YORK, May %. = Bradstreet's
Trade ReUie1o tomorrow will say: The
unlavorable conditions prevailing in COM
mercial and industrial circles throughout
the country, together with the prospect
for no material improvement dnring the
summer. marks the present season as
probably the dullest relatively for twenty
years. At no time since the panic and
business depression manifested them
selves last year have reports as to the
volume OF sales of merchandise, the man
utacture of staple goods and the lndispo-
SltiOn OF merchants generally to buy eX-
cept for immediate wants been SO pro-
nounced throughout the country as dur
ing the past week. Superficial examlna-
tions of business conditions, leading 10
unwarranted optimistic conclusions as to
the nearby future OF trade, nave not been
wanting. As a matter of fact, based on
comprehensive and careful examination,
the next few months will prove u con-
tinuance, il not as intensltying, OF the eX-
listing conditions OF extreme duIness and
depression.
quite unfavorable advices come from
Pittsburg, where there are numerous
shutdowns, involving large number OF
men. The total number of industrial
employees luIe as a result OF Tie coal
strike is about .. 1000, and the total num-
Der idle on account of strikes as now ap-
pear likely is 100000. In other industrial
lines 10000 men are idle as result of
strikes, making the total number now
idle 245, COO.
Exports of wheat, flour included, both
coasts, United States and Canada, this
week equal 2,3l5,000 bushels, against
2.429, 900 bushels last week, and 3.lO0,000
bushels a year ago. The price movement
as to staples continues TO see-saw. Cot
ton, wheat, corn and oats all reacting
slightly from former depressions, while
wool, sugar, lard, coffee and livestock all
show declines.
The stress OF financial panic and trade
convulsions in the latter portion of 1898
pushed many of the weaker business
concerns to the wall, so that February 1st
last the average number of failings,
weekly, in the United States had got
down to normal proportion. The total is
273, against Isl last week, as compared
with 247 in the week a year ago, when the
total began TO expand under special con-
ditions. and as compared with Ia in the

GROWTH OF THE TELEPHONE.
One of the Great successes of the
Century Financially.


One of the Great successes of the
Century Financially.
When the inventor of the telephone
first made known his discovery eighteen
years ago it probably did not enter into
even hls sanguine expectations that his
scheme of conveying speech by electrici-
ty would have the success it has since
reached. If it had been made known
first in a European country it would nave
enioved u certain measure of prosperity.
limited, however, by the conservative
character of the people and the difficulty
OF adjusting the business and social life
in All old country to new aud startling
change. 1t would have caused iog in
the life of the people such as the break
ing off of sharp bluff causes in land
scape.
But that is not the American way. The
distinguishing American trait is to grasp
eagerly at any innovation that holds out
the promise of saving time and money.
The only questions asked are: Will it
be useful and will it pay? The seven
teen years use OF the telephone proves
that both these inquiries have been an
swered affirmatively. In December, 1877,
q year and half after the patent was
issued, there were 5,000 telephones in use.
A year later there were 02,000 and from
that time on the increase has been by
great StrldeS, until to-uay tnere are nearly
100000 telephones in daily use III this
country. The exchange system has grown
from l3S exchanges IN 1880 to l,490 in
1898. but the increase of subscribers to
the exchanges has been much greater the
number in the United States being esti-
mated at 10000.
The use of this time and labor-saving
invention has been greater still. In 1884
the number of telephone conversations
was estimated at 2l5, 100000, but last year
the conversations were estimated at $780,
OOo.OO0, or an increase 200 per cent, the
growth of the population OF the country
during the ten intervening years being
about 20 per cent. probably. A compari-

fourteen couples, or one person in twenty

be elevated by bringing it as nearly as pos
