ARE YOU GOING A.vlsITINc7
n So Here Are Some Hints as to the
Duty OF a Guest.

The relations between n visitor and
her hostess never require to be more
carefully considered than when the
visit is made in town. In the country a
visitor has very little opportunity Of
taking her own line; on the contrary.
she has to follow the routine arranged
by her hostess. and has only to acquiesce
in what is proposed TO be done each
day. 1t is different in town, where the
rule is for n host and hostess TO accep;
invitations for themselves, whether a
visitor will be staying with them at the
time or not, although a hostess general
-ly informs the intended visitor before.
hand of her dinner engagements, to give
her the opportunity OF making engage.
ments for herself in the evenings in
question; for when a host and hostess
dine out. their visitor is usually expect
ed to do the same at the house OF a
relative or friend.
Again, as regards evening parties aud
dances, it much depends upon whether
the visitor is a young and pretty girl or
a lady Of middle age, as to asking per.
mission TO take her or not. In the gem
crafty of cases a hostess prefers not TO
ask this favor, and 10 allow her visitor
to amuse herself. To an ordinary after
O at home a visitor is taken as a
matter OF course, but to no other enter
tainment, and a visitor is most un-
reasonable when. as too often follows.
she shows evident displeasure at not
being included in the long-standing en-.
gagelnents of her hostess. or that they
are not given up on her account As
the obligation is incurred by the visitor.
she should respect her hostess plans
and fall in with them, and consult her as
to all engagements she desires to make
Independently of her. Otherwise a
hostess feels that she is put into rather
the position q a landlady, and that her
town house is little better than a hotel
to the visitor who makes use of il.
Shopping and visiting are great
temptations TO most visitors in town. but
the convenience of a hostess should
never be sacrificed TO such ~aliurements,
and a visitor should endeavor ~ hit
the happy medium, and not give her
hostess too little or too much of her
society

pre-Emineuce.

There are great men in p~rofusion in this
wondrous age OF ours;
They are blossoming so quickly that they
bea the blooming flowers:
But like the fruit which smiles upon the
hungry passer-by
The largest is, OF course. the first TO catch
the public eye:
We are turning from the forum and we've
quite forgot the stage
And we scarcely name the generals where
the battles nercely rage;
II Ia useless to deny IL, though the pride
of some IL shocks;
The base ball pitcher is the biggest berry
in the box.
For TIE sunshine's on the diamond and the
dust begip& to lily:
The soaring .father-coyered sphere once
more delights the eye.
And men of every calling and of every SO
cial grade
Their adulation offer to the heroes there
displayed.
Once more the raucous rooter every tym-
panum numb
n the congregation rises when the sew
enth inning comes.
And we eagerly acknowledge as We hasten
there in hocks,
That the base ball pitcher Is the biggest
berry in the o.
Washington Star.
