society after II has ceased TO be one of
the things 10 come. For time IL is said.
Miss Furth gave consideration ia the idea
OF having the wedding take place AT the
Furth home at Barnahee. but the trouble
10 be encountered in such an undertaking
viii. IL is said, result in the ceremony be-
ing performed in this city.
Those people of the society world who
are missing the essays OF Mrs. John
Sherwood on How we do IL when we're
out In society viii live 10 regret II.
Humor is appreciated even by society
people and Mrs Sherwood displays mar
yelous ability in her latest efforts. Like
the late lamented Mr. William Nye she
viii in time exhaust her present over
flowing bowl of humor but just now she
shows no signs Of SO doing.
Every time her pen scratches n word
there is ..omething funny about It. Ms.
Sherwood does not laugh. IL Is not good
form 10 laugh AT your own jokes and
Mrs. Sherwood Is q great believer in
form In her latest efiuslon she goes 80
far as TO make this shocking announce
II ent; '@rhe old fashioned way was 10
pour the tea out IN the saucer and then
drink it, Now that Is unpaFdonable"
Lady Sherwood permits you 10 drink
the tea but do not pour II out IN the sau-
Ger. And il Is gross breach of etiquette
70 leave the spoon in either the tea or
coffee cup says Mrs. Sherwood. II Is well
to give these little things widespread
notoriety for fashionable folks have for
sometime past been drinking their tea
from saucers. and on leaving the table
they never failed 20 see that their spoons
were in the cups.
Mrs. Sherwood scores another impor-
tant point. Society has fer a long
time labored under what Mrs. Sher-
woods explodes as a deluston. that 1t was
proper for society ladies Ia have their
pictures AIKEN with their hands on their
hips Woman, hang your head and
blush for Mrs Sherwood without hesl-
fancy makes the positive assertion that
e. IS vaisar and entirely unladylike- Il
Is hard 20 think that those photographs
which you had taken IN your sweti-ioos-
ing party gown must he destroyed. and
Alt because You tried 70 look modest BY
placing yotr hands on your hips Here
after see thar this .unlsdylike crime" -
not C emitted. II you must lnd a place
for your hands place them IN your pock-
cts but never under any circums tances
allow The photographer 10 say ready
when YOU have them on your hips. 1t
does not seem right that the good old
custom should be cast aside with sim
ME stroke az Lady Sherwood's pen. hlit
is best that we should krow Il now and
begin over.
Here Is enc mere point which everybody
should read Luncheon. Mrs Sherwood
