FIN De SIECLE FEMININITY
Great Success of the Ladies Aid
SocietY's Sociable.
Movement on Foot to Found Home
for Aged Married Couples
in This City.

The sociable given on Wednesday even
ing, at the lecture room of the First Baptist
Church, by the Ladies Aid society of the
congregation, was in every respect most
enjoyable affair and proved that what
is termed good time" may be enjoyed
without set programme; essays, recita
tions, music and the like.
The lecture room, which is, by the way,
the Sunday school room OF the church, is
admirably adapted for thepurpose to which
it was applied on Wednesday.
The entertainment was given by the
ladies for the benefit Of the Baptist
Women's Home" in West Washington.
Among those present were: The pastor,
DR.. Etakely, Mrs. and Miss Stakely, Mr..
and Mrs Burke, Mr.. and Mrs. Martin, DR..
Chaplin, Mrs. Hodges, Mrs. and Miss VIII
kinson, Mrs. Mary II. Young, DR.. and Mrs.
d. N. Mcpherson, Prof. and Mrs Hodgkins,
Mrs. and Miss Nichols, Mr.. Drinkard, Miss
Mary Reynolds, Mrs. j. n. sypher, Mrs G.
w. Needham, Mr.. and Mrs. Teep, Mrs. and
Miss Anderson, Mrs. and Miss Howgate,
Miss Leta Stakely, Mr.. and Mrs. Russo,
Miss Marie Ewing, Mr.. and Mrs. c. B.
Smith, Mrs. Chaplin, Mrs. Mary Yuell, Mrs.
Petit, Mrs. Dalzell, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
It is a singular fact that whilst there
have been founded homes for aged men
and women who are INDECENT and inca
pacitated from earning a living, there
are only one or two such places In the
United States where an aged couple may
take refuge. In almost every instance the
regulations of these charities prescribe
that men and women must be sheltered
hrrc a To
as In the case of the Christ Church Hos
pital in Philadelphia, another building,
almost equally fine has been prepared for
men, under the same management, but
at some distance from the Hospital or
Home for Aged Women.
The adventures OF an aged couple re-
Gently in search of a home would fill q
volume. 1t makes one almost agree with
the old lady who said of her rebuffs at
every home where she and her husband
applied: Marriage to the aged, INDECENT
poor is misfortune and is treated as If it
was a disgrace"
This want to which this especial case
has called attention viii be considered by a
society OF chartably-inclined persons next
season and measures will probably be taken
TO establish a home in Washington where an
old couple who have spent fifty years and
over OF their lives as man and wife may not
be compelled to part in order to subsist.
The Ladies' Aid Association Of the Ma
tional Homeopathic Hospital will give
q garden party at Chevy Chase Inn on Fri
day next, from 4 TO IL p. m. This will
be their last entertainment for the season
and elaborate preparations have been made
TO secure TO this moonlight fete champetre
great success.
The object is so worthy that the ladies
feel no doubt OF the cooperation of their
friends.
The ladies IN charge are Mrs Beriah Will
kins, Mrs. Dalzen, Mrs. Cotton, Mrs.
seaton Perry, Mrs DR.. Gardner, and Mrs
Willard Warner.

Frank Pease oil Manchester Is Using His Gun

Frank Pease of Manchester, though his
modesty does not suggest any particular
greatness, has the best record for shooting,
this fall, that has come to our notice. Be

ne shot the following: Thirty seven par
tridges, woodcock, gray squirrels, 2
rabbits, owl and l henhawk. Friday,
he shot 10 partridges.

They were excellent. In London and

that effect is displayed in conspicuous

the fruits of the harvest in most tasty

In the centre was arranged tripod of
grasses and autumn leaves, with "A great
cluster of cars of corn hanging from the
apex. Beneath this was arranged pyramid
of fruits and vegetables of all kinds, with
sprays of cereals peeping from within. AT
the sides of the chancel were sheafs of oats
