Very frequently IT happens that young
girls are suddenly called upon to fill the
positions of hostess in the houses of their
fathers and brothers. having had little or
no experience TO go upon. The premature
death of mother still young often obliges
a girl of 1S or whereabouts TO act as mis-
tress of the house, where hitherto she has
taken no part whatever in the domestic or
social arrangements; she has but recently
left The school room. and since looming
OUT has thought of little else than the
everyday social amusements which fail TO
the lot of girls with indulgent parents, and
occupying good positions in life. 1t is nat
ural, says the Kansas City Star, that so
great change in the occupation of a girls
life gives her much 10 think about, and
often very much TO learn. When a girls
mother has been an invalid, the position is
far less difficult, and the knowledge of
what to do and how best to fill the office
Of hostess has been gradually and easily
acquired, the mothers advice and assist
ance being ever at command. Again, when
a girls father has been a widower from
her childhood, she imperceptibly comes TO
the front. Is proud of asserting herself as
the future mistress of her fathers house,
and gains useful knowledge relating TO do
nestle matters very early in life, and she
is neither as shy, as deficient nor as igno-
rant of social arrangements as is the one
suddenly compelled TO act as mistress and
hostess.
A motherless girl who is placed at the
head of her fathers house takes up after
a time the routine of social life followed
by her late mother-that is TO say, she re-
ceives and makes calls with or without
her father, generally the latter; her name
is printed Jointly with his upon a lady's
sized visiting card, and left with one OF
his cards upon the married couple of their
acquaintance, the former card only being
left upon the widow ladies and maiden
ladies; she also has cards bearing her own
name only, 20 leave upon ladies with
whom her father is unacQuainted. All in
vitations are ISSUED in the names of her
father and herself for dinners, dances, and
at home thus: Mr. and Miss A.

half an hour, her place being taken by
her father usually assisted by a female
relative, but she receives the whole of the
time at an at home or at garden party.
She is usually chaperoned by her father at
large balls and important functions, but
at small dances dinners and afternoon
parties chaperonage is not considered nee
essary. the host in each case being an all
sufficient chaperon. Girls in these adj
vanced days enjoy a great deal of free
dom out of DOORS and in a way chaperone
each other.
Here and there a father considers that
the companicnship of a lady is advantage
Gus to daughter, especially when he is
much occupied away from home or when
he does not care TO enter into society to
any extent, or when a daughter is unusu-
ally backward for her age and being more
of child than a woman. Then a resident
chaperon is, no doubt, of service TO a
motherless girl, particularly if her mater
nal relatives do not reside near enough
to be of any actual use to her; but even
in this case, the daughter of the house Is
still regarded as its mistress, and is TO
all intents and purposes the hostess When

is placed at the head of the house vet

When a girl is made the mistress of her
brothers house she has generally some
experience TO go upon; she is older, for one
thing; but although his interests are hers,
her interests are seldom his, and, socially
speaking, he goes his own way and leaves
her to do the same, and she knows that
the chance of his marrying is not a re-
mote one; indeed. he usually does so when
her attractions are on the wane and the
possibility Of her settling in life are more
than doubtful.
"You want me TO tell you how to choose
husbands" queried the professor, peering
over his glasses at the bevy of girls sur
rounding him, says the Pittsburg Dis
patch.
