An Advantageous Blunder.

If the various blur ders that are made
every season in regard TO social functions
were chronicled they would make an
amusing collection Mistakes about dir
ners seem especially liable to occur. and
many an awkward situation has resulted
from al trival erro- on the part of either
the sender or recipient in the wording or
reading of an invitation The habit they
have in London especially OF asking their
guests as much as four or five weeks
3saE cad has been q pftfall to more than one
iunwary American, who is not accustom
at home to such ina gnificent distances"
Sonnet times, however, a mistake is not
such bad thing.

THE FORCE OF HABIT.
An Illustration Of How Completely
One Habis May Supplant Another.

An illustration of How Completely
One Habis May Supplant Another.
IS :'Habit is curious thing" said Mr..
Joggleton, but the completeness with
which one habit can be supplanted by
another seems more curious still.
..I. had a chair that I had used for
yearS, and which, as I was firmly con-
vinced, was by long odds the most com-
Portable chair ever made After break
fast, when read the paper I used to-
sit in that chair. and after dinner at
night I settled down into 1t, with a cigar,
in peace and happiness and thought there
never was chair that combined so many
good points as to height and pitch of
seat and slope OF back. and all that:
had never seen a chair that suited me
SO well.
.iBut one day this chair was tipped
over, or something CIR other happened
to It'll don't know what-but something
so serious that it was put out of COM
mission. With our usual conservative
slowness, we put off from day to day
and from week to week getting that chair
repaired, and, as a matter of fact, it
was two or three years before we had
it fixed up and Drought into use again..
Meanwhile, i had singled out another
chair, which I came commonly to occu-

look upon it as very comfortable sort
OF a chair, Indeed. But at last the old
chair, the good old chair, was fixed up
again and brought back into use, and
the day it appeared I looked forward ito
settling down in 1t at night with all the
old-time comfort.
But when, with all those pleasant an
tfcipattons, came to sit in vt again ]
did not find the pleasure that had ex-
3pected; it was too high. or too low, or
the seat stoped too much, or something
I don't know what; it wasn't as it used to
be-to me. I tried It once or twice more
after that and then gave it up and went
back to the new chair. My new habit
had become firmly fixed. liked the new
chair better. and now, as settled down
in it, its good points were at once em-
phasized and softened. and rounded into
completeness, and j accepted it in full
as the chair of 6aitisfying comfort, and
wondered as u looked across at the other
what I ever could have seen IN It to make
me like it so much.

the Duchess after the family returned to

to be the greatest piece of good luck
