REFORM IN OlNNER-oivINo.
Simple Dinners Arc Now Considered the
Elegant Dinners.

Elegant Dinners
a dinner engagement, no matter
whether the dinner be large or small,
formal or informal, is the most exact.
ing of social obligations. In selecting
the guests for the small dinner choose
those who are congenial. If among
your friends you number physicians,
lawyers or politicians, do not invite ono
of each class, nor all of one class, simply
because their professions are the same,
but select congenial spirits. Then
small dinners, well arranged, are much
more enjoyable thau one large conven-
tional dinner served to 60 Unsolicited
people. The food is better, service bet
ter and digestion better, and even when
trSined help cannot be employed the
hostess may enjoy the occasion rs well
as the guests. The art of dining. re-
member, is quite apart from the art of
giving dinners.
"A reform in dinner-giving is being
instieated. Simple dinners are now
the elegant dinners The man who has
studied the art of living lives frugally.
~ hostess must never forget that during
the short time her guests are under her
roof she is responsible for their happi.
ness and comfort. a huge dinner of IL
courses of badly blended food is not con-
ducive to either. Savarin said: The
dinner table is place where men are
never bored for the first hour the in
sinuation that second would prove n
bore is rather prominent. If people in
the ordinary walks of life are TO make
such entertainments n success they
must never try new or elaborate dishes.
or even new ways of serving; they
should simply add an extra plate or two
10 the usual number and invite their
friends. Home journal.
