ENTERTAIN MENTS.
A Brilliant Reception.

An entertainment which was accom-.
panied by the most suspicious circum
stances, and crowned as a brilliant sue
cess, was the reception to the Young Mar
ried Womans' Club Friday evening at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. John Mitchell
with DR.. and Mrs. Page as JOINT host
and hostess. This home is in itself a
model of refined and exquisite taste,
and in its ''evening dress" it was truly
beautiful Wild southern smilax was
rivalled in profus on by its more delicate
sister, graceful sprays of one or festoons
of the other forming a background for
the most effective floral decorations.
An elaborate use of candles, besides
being in themselves a pretty form of
decoration, we're effective in revealing
the full beauty of the house as whole,
and of each prettily gowned woman in
particular.
The receiving party, who stood in the
double reception rooms, was composed
of the following ladies and gentlemen:
Mr.. and Mrs. John Mitchell, DR.. and
