of costume-a great consideration. With
pirouettes and entries, with graceful
gesture and dainty balancings on tiptoe,
and pas seul here and pas seul there,
these three dances are being practiced
with zeal and concentration of mind, TO
say nothing of daily consultations with
ones dresSmaker.
The costume is comparatively simple;
for the tragic ballet from Robert lie
Diable, the men wear the dress of the
FRANCISCAN monks or gray friars-a loose
AMI long gray cassock, belted with a
leather thong and q gray cowl. The
nuns wear white habits girded with a

ence; over their habit is worn a cloak.
falling open in front, with a hood upon
the head.
1t is but the work of a moment. after
one has danced off the stage and behind
the scenes to dom the religious garb,
underneath which is worn the Punchi-
nello and Columbine costumes-the form

dances, isslike "a wave Of the sea, wears

over thiS--a calyX for the rOSe-a green
shirt shorter than the under one and also
scalloped; a heavy bodice, covered with
golden crescents, and coquettish cap
give the finishing touches.
After this ballet appear my lords and
ladies in conventional evening attire, and
follows the ballet of the mistletoe Dough,
which is .incomparably captivating in
deed, a picture perfect in all its parts,
as a ballet should be.
The tragical story of the romantic
mistletoe bough is followed by more lively
scenes the decoration of the ball room
having been arranged with a special
view to this concluding dance.
Wreaths of holly and mistletoe are sus-
pended from archways of evsrgreens.
which are placed the length of the room,
at intervals, and as the dancers glide
about in measured step. the dance is so
arranged that every now and then, each
couple passes under a mistletoe wreath,
when the cavalier kisses the hand of his
fair partner, in a manner quite worthy
of any knight of the medieval times.
The Christmas tree, which is, of course.
the Hamlet of every entertainment at this
season, has been moved to a central po-
sition, and distribution of gifts forms
the climax to a gay frolic.

DAINTY CHRISTMAS BUNDLES.

Pleasure accompanying the receiving of
a gift depends largely upon the daintiness
of its wrappings, as well as upon its gen
eral appropriateness to- the one for whom
it is intended.
A really very pretty present loses much
of its apparent value by being carelessly
packed while the simplest article may De
greatly enhanced in value if it is prettily
wrapped
In these days when large sheet of It's
sue paper, in varied tints, can be bought
for a cent or two and the cheaper grades
for only a few cents per quire, and mar
row ribbons are sold for song" there
| is no excuse for gifts to be rendered in a
slovenly fashion.
Then, too, gift should be sent. when
possible, for however good our intentions
may be, it is not always easy to please
the one for whom the present is intended,
and should this latter be the case, much
embarrassment on both sides is avoided,
if the donor be not present. 1t is difficult
to express unqualified satisfaction at a
present that offendS our taste, or for
which we have no use. even though we
may thoroughly appreciate the kind
! thought that prompted its bestowal-and
love the giver. too!
To give successfully, study not so much
your own taste as that of the person you
intend to remember with your present,
and you will be more sure of attaining
your end.
A bright chrome would be more accept
able as a decoration for the walls of a
poor mans cottage, and give him and his
family more delight in looking at its gay
colors, than the rarest etching; while
your rich friend. whose taste is highly
cultivated, would thank your heartily Tor
the latter. where the former would fail
| to even attract attention

anything that can be rolled long and mar

A CHRISTMAS BALLET.
Latest Holiday Diversion of New
York's Society Bellies.

Society has a new advertisement for
this holiday season, and society calls it
a Christmas pantomime which is very
English.
Whisper it not aloud. but pantomime
is translated ballet by the knowing
ones, who add land ISM a ballet a story
told by gesture, which is also the def
milton of pantomime, and have not kings
and queens, princes and princesses danced
in ballet to celebrate events OF import
ance?'
Therefore there is nothing so very
startling in the fact that all the bellies
and beauy of the smart set are train
ing the fantastic toe to trip a dainty
measure, not almost, but altogether a
Ia ballet; society so dearly loves a fresh
amusement!
The ballet, which is being practiced
now behind closed doors in boudoir or
drawing room, is TO grace the festivities
of gay house party given during Christ
mas week at splendid country house
on the Hudson.
Before deciding finally upon a ballet.
the charms of different ones were con-
sidered. Robert Ie Diable" was finally
decided upon, to be followed by Pun
chinello and Columbine, and then final
one of the mistletoe bough.
One of the beauties of this arrange
ment is that the three ballets are pos
sible for one evening, with easy changes

CHRISTMAS CHEER.
How to Serve & Toothsome and Di-
gestible Family Dinner.

How to Serve Toothsome and Di-
gestible Family Dinner.
Red is par excellence the Christmas
color.
For a big family dinner, cause the table
to shine with satin smooth napery and
highly-polished silver and glass. A little
Norway pine twinkling with small Grim
son tapers and flashing with tinsei, should
always occupy the place of honor in the
center, and low wide bowls of scarlet
roses ada perfume as well as further
touch of color to the scene.
1t is better form to arrange all the sill
yer at the right of the plate, with the ar
ticle first wanted farthest away. The oys-
ter fork, for example, should be to the
extreme right, the soup spoon next, and
so on to the coffee spoon, which is near
est the plate. By this arrangement the
table presents a far more orderly appear
ance, as the dinner progresses, than by
the previous methods.
One of the prettiest up-to-date effects is
to have leading from the small Christmas
tree bands of ribbon two and a half inch
es in width. fringed at either end with
the monogram or name of each guest
daintiy lettered upon it in gilt. The nap
kin should be folded in a plain square
Fancy folds. and the custom of inclos
ing q square of bread, are alike out of
date.
A table set as Indicated and lighted by
candles with red shades cannot fail to be
marked by the utmost good taste and ele-

A word must be said in behalf of
those who are casting about for a
stout, serviceable and pretty midwinter
gown, and for the new goods that Just
fills the bill, called muscovite cash
mere. Cashmere is perhaps Of all
dress goods considered the smartest,
but until this moment it has been IN
deniably too light for heavy winter
weather. The museovite species is
nothing more than the weave of cash
mere worn in winter in Russia. with a
thick, warm, woolly inside facing that
keeps up the heart and the heat, while
outside it is simply beautiful cash
mere, that pleases the fastidious eye.
