At the sale of useful and fancy articles
which is being held in Reception hall
today by the ladies CT the church of
the New Jerusalem, there will DO served
at 6. 80 a supper in both ancient and mod
ern style. The idea of giving patrons
their uhoice of a supper OF all the old
fashioned delicacies or one consisting of
distinctly modern dishes, both being
served in costumes appropriate to the Ia
BILE, is certainly unique, and in connec-
tion with the weil-known reputation of
the ladies of this church for serving del
ioious snppers will certainly attract a
large NUN Der.
