The field for American goods in South

received by the bureau of statistics of the
Treasury Department. 1t points out the
popularity of American goods and the fact
that American merchants and manufac-

WOMEN'S LUNCHEONS.

The luncheon, as a social function of
a certain order, has come to be the
feminine counterpart of the mans
dinner If a man of note comes to New
York he is promptly, often exhaust
lively, dined by other men, who take
this way-happily so full of enjoyment
to show their respect and
admiration If women want to honor
another woman they give luncheon
for her. Not long ago a woman editor
from another city visited New York,
and among the affairs given in her
honor was a luncheon at well-known
hotel. 1t was small company, scarce
~ more than dozen covers being
laid; but the repartee, the good stories,
the humorous discussion which went
around the table would have been quite
worthy of a masculine dinner of i'm
posing proportions. 1t is an I'M
fortunately widespread habit with
women to take their pleasures sadly,
but the vigorous preaching which has
been done apropos of this very thing
seems not to have been in vain. An
honorary" luncheon, at least, is a
pleasure which New York women take
with the proper degree of gayety.-
