HERE'S GOOD TROsT."

The appearance of a new trust any
bright morning or murky afternoon
nowadays need surprise no one. Trusts
grow I'D in a day or in night, or the
part OF night or day. Some are bad
trusts Possibly majority OF them are
bad But there may be good trusts.
I.he trust that gives to the consumer
the best article at the lowest price is a
pune peneractor.
This morning We desire to call atten-
ton to a very good trust, or, more prop
crly speaking. several good trusts that
have recently been formed. and we de-
sire also TO express the hope that this
particular good trust VIII increase and
multiply until it has branch establish
ments all over the country. We hope
10 see several branches right here IN
virginia.
We refer to a trust that is being
organized by smart society in the mat
ter Of hospitality and entertainments, a
trust which has every promise of being
advantageous alike to hostesses and
guests. Let us try to describe this trust
and It's workings as they have been de-
scroed to US:
Several ladies' combine. devise the form
of amusement, plan the details and agree
upon the persons to be invited Spacious
parlors of fine hotels are engaged and
an assembly that few private houses
could receive meets in generous way
and with ample accommodations.
The rrcnus OF one hostess greets the
friends of another, and the circle of ac-
qualn,ance is agreeably enlarged. The
neavy responsibility that devolves upon
a single hostess becomes light when
shared by several. Hospitality is a plea
sure. and the relieved entertainer no
longer thanks hea.en when all is over
Bear in mind that this trust originates
with the Smart Set, with ample means,
and therefore the idea of economy did
not at first enter into its consideration,
but it is easy TO see that more brill
nant entertainment at less cost to the
INDIVIDUAL, can be had when several!
snare the expense, than when one alone
provides II.
We see no reason why many women
of medium or ordinary means may not
gladly adopt TINS pleasing innovation.
The home is often much smaller than
that a so-called elaborate entertainment,
be it BALL party or what not, in ones
own home. often Jars family rights and
leaves domestic affairs in a, state of up
heaval Tor several days.
If we read Alright, this new combna-
non is entitled TO a place in the list OF
good trusts, because it not only lightcns
the expense of entertaining, but removes
a great burden, protects the home and
adds to the general happiness of the
entertainers as well as the entertained
There is every reason why this social
trust should find favor during the winter
campaign.

And why not? Haven't the negroes
been as faithful as fidelity itself to the
Republican party? And hasn't the Re
