was that which engaged the attention of
a number of young ladies who were
entertained by Mrs. WE. Wilson last
evening in honor ef Miss Wilson, of
Springfield, Ohio, Who is guest at her

Tale" and each question asked was
answered by the name of some familiar
flower, such as, ''To whom did the young
lady refer her loverf" ''To Poppy"
"Who performed the ceremony?7'
"Jack in the Pulpit Miss Louise
Ruch proved herself we'll versed in flow
er lore and was presented with beauti-
full painted picture frame, while Miss
Laura Thompson, less fortunate in
guessing, was equally fortunate when
the prizes were given. A number of
musical selections were rendered during
the evening and the refreshments were
extremely tempting. Before parting
Mrs Wilson took number of fash
light pictures of the young ladies, which
will be treasured by Miss Wilson and
her guests as reminders of very pleas
